"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"It has a clean and clear interface."
"There are some great features in ESET Endpoint Antivirus when you are browsing on the internet. For example, they have a notification if within your LAN network something is suspected to be a threat. Additionally, the malware features are very good."
"The solution is easy to install and configure."
"ESET Endpoint Security's best feature is that it's invisible until it detects a problem."
"In terms of the current global landscape, it is a great solution."
"The stability is good."
"The software and hardware inventory that you can create by using the console is valuable. It is also very light on hardware resources."
"Primarily used to protect computers from viruses and ransomware."
"Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."
"Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."
"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"I'm not so familiar with the tool but I like the interaction of the console to the picture. Patching is the primary model I have been focusing on for the last couple of weeks. So I have created a proof of concept environment and have been checking the available features."
"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The solution is not stable."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Online security could still be improved in ESET Endpoint Antivirus because security is threatened by phishing."
"The feature is somewhat lacking in security protection."
"There are some new antivirus technologies that rely on AI, artificial intelligence. ESET does not have this technology right now."
"The use of SQL Server can be improved. At times, there is a bit of challenge while linking it with the Javascript. ESET Endpoint Security requires modern technology or modern equipment on site. You will find it difficult to use ESET Endpoint Security with dual-core machines. If they can add the cloud management feature to their product, it will be much easier. If you look at this COVID situation that we are in right now, people are working from home, so you need to control the computers wherever you are. For example, if you are using any email setup and you are hosting it on your own, all the email traffic will be going through the same network. You need to protect all of your computers from the attack. It is best if you can do it remotely rather than having an IT person to come onsite to manage all computers and metrics etc, which isn't a smart way to do it."
"The initial setup of ESET Endpoint Security can be complicated when you get involved with encryption."
"We have experienced some problems with the actualization of some endpoints. We then have to manually reinstall the version on these endpoints."
"I don't know if it's possible but I'm always looking for better protection."
"The solution’s console management and scalability should be improved."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used."
"I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
"Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
"The reporting could be improved."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
