Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)."Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"This is stable and scalable."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It has a very simple like multi-tenancy option and scalability is outstanding."
"It's easy to use."
"The loss prevention feature would be the most valuable."
"One valuable feature is Threat Prevention with the on-demand scan."
"It's easy to use and it's very powerful. It offers nice endpoint protection."
"The most valuable features are the prevention layer that detects the signature value and prevents threats in the network."
"This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection."
"I have found many of the features to be useful."
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The solution is not stable."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"Signatures to protect against new attacks."
"The VirusScan needs to improve in order to detect ransomware and other advanced threats."
"Its pricing needs to be improved."
"It would be a lot easier if I could add multiple user accounts within a single device."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"Tech support is not as helpful as they were in the past."
"The solution should provide a more easy way to uninstall it on specific stations."
"The solution's technical support should be improved since we faced a lot of issues with the support. There were some delays in responses from the technical support."
