Pros
"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.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""The price is low and quite competitive with others.""The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features.""Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution.""The setup is pretty simple."

"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence.""First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."

More Nyotron PARANOID Pros →

"With Sophos, the scanning of viruses and scanning of the disk is done silently in the background.""The product interacts well with other Sophos products we have.""The central management of the anti-virus features for our end user is a very valuable aspect of the solutions.""The most valuable feature Sophos EPP Suite is that it protects the computer beyond the premise. Whether the user is at home, in the office, or traveling, you are able to apply the policies as the user moves.""Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.""Our experience with Sophos has been notable; it's database-driven and efficiently integrates to inspect and protect us against biases, malware, and attacks.""Sophos EPP Suite stands out with its user-friendly dashboard and strong web filtering features for enhanced online security.""This product is quite stable and there are no problems with it."

More Sophos EPP Suite Pros →

Cons
"The solution is not stable.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location.""The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection.""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."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS.""The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."

More Nyotron PARANOID Cons →

"Deployment and central management need to be improved.""The update part is a bit tricky in the solution...The support is not that good.""We need to uninstall the license to move to another endpoint.""There are also issues with the compatibility of the OS. When using Sophos with Windows and devices, most of them work well, but as soon as we work with macOS and Linux, many issues arise that we do not want to have.""The user interface is not responsive.""In the next release, I would like to see the phishing attached included in the firewall.""The product is not secured and doesn't offer a fast connection.""I would like to have the capability to support legacy operating systems because the majority now don't support Windows XP, and Windows 2000."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by Fortinet FortiEDR users.

    An Owner at a security firm says, "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 customer has literally about 800 cash registers. That was the use case for Fortinet FortiEDR - to get that down into a tiny space. The only way to do that was to use this product because it had that ability to unbundle services that were a surplus.”

    Chandan M., Chief Technical Officer at Provision Technologies LLP, mentions, “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.” He also adds, “The security is also very good and the firewall response is good.”

    Harpreet S., Information Technology Support Specialist at Chemtrade Logistics, explains, "It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."

    DeAndre V., Senior Network Administrator at a financial services firm, states, “The dashboard is easy to follow and use. The deployment and uninstalling were easy. I like the detailed information about the path of a file that might be suspicious. Being able to check that out was easy to follow. Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.

    PARANOID is a game-changing endpoint protection solution that works seamlessly with your existing endpoint security solutions to create an almost impenetrable defense against even the most sophisticated attacks.
