Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks.""The price is low and quite competitive with others.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""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.""The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""It is stable and scalable.""The setup is pretty simple."

"Since it's cloud-managed, the solution is easy to administer, especially if the person using it is in a different geophysical location.""The solution has very good usability.""Anti-virus captures malicious threats and an aggressive next generation firewall.""It is a very scalable solution.""The product efficiently prevents data leakages.""I have found the most valuable feature to be the EDR.""It provides a feature for scanning and analyzing endpoints, which is a value-add for our infrastructure. With the advancements in the Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), Sophos Intercept X analyzes an APT and the behavior of the endpoints. It then gives us a detailed dashboard with more information about the endpoints and their security and risk level. While deploying Sophos Intercept X, we identified a lot of vulnerability and risky endpoints that our previous solution didn't cover, which proved that this solution is the best.""It does its job — it protects us from viruses. We don't really interact with it very much."

More Intercept X Endpoint Pros →

"Panda Security solution has a feature to block any unknown process and that is what is best about it.""The dashboard management feature is valuable.""Great technical support staff.""The interface is great.""It allows us to stop activation windows.""Adaptive Defense is pretty easy to use, and Panda support is excellent.""The most valuable feature is the web filter application control.""I've found it's got excellent web protection."

Cons
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors.""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.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations.""Detections could be improved.""We find the solution to be a bit expensive.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""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."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"When we load Intercept X, it puts a load on the device. When it is scanning, it slows down the device. A system with basic specifications completely slows down till the scan is complete. They should improve this part.""The initial setup can be difficult if you don't come in with at least some knowledge about the product.""It could be a bit easier to implement.""They should work on the logs and events. Sophos Intercept X needs to increase the interface test so that it can export to a live event.""The endpoint detection and response (EDR) technology has room for improvement because the information that it gives us to resolve our problems is poor nowadays.""There is some issue with the reporting and refreshing information on resources that have been eliminated.""Better protection in the endpoint, server, and mobile is needed.""The number one thing I would like is if their support could be a little faster and it would be a little easier to get a hold of support when you need them."

More Intercept X Endpoint Cons →

"They could have more reports.""The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution.""We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software.""The stability could be improved. My teammates who use Panda Security and I have experienced some issues.""The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system.""It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection.""t would help if it would monitor the network better.""It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."

    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.
