Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""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.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""The product's initial setup phase is very easy.""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.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""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.""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"

More Fortinet FortiEDR Pros →

"The portal is the most valuable feature because it provides us with a single pane of glass view and is highly intuitive.""It is easy to manage and install. It has a very nice graphical interface that is very intuitive when end users are using it. You don't have to follow or read a book about 600 pages to have knowledge on how to use it. When SentinelOne is up and running, you can easily find your way.""The remediation and rollback features are pretty impressive.""The product is a lighter client. Our previous solution ran heavy on the workstation and caused performance issues.""Its ability to interact with other third-party tools has been great for us. It can work through APIs and partners and integrate well.""The external drive scanning is great.""It delivers the type of security which we were hoping for, since we have a lot of different endpoint users utilizing different types of software. We have people who only use Office software, like email, Word, and PDFs. Then, we have people who use some applications that other people wrote. We also write applications in-house using people who develop software. Therefore, we have some machines using very high-end developer software for mechanical development, electronic development, and software development. Those users are used to managing their PC on their own. The centralize platform allows us to differentiate between those three groups of people. We have overall control and can oversee the security levels at all the endpoints. They have not yet been blocked in any way when performing the functions""The single pane of glass is probably the most valuable. That is a big one. We could see everything from one view."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete Pros →

"Tanium's most valuable feature is its instant discovery aspect.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""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.""I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management.""The most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps.""Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."

More Tanium Pros →

Cons
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments.""To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.""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.""There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors.""The support needs improvement.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""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.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"I would like to have the same features such as ransomware that are available on the cloud version of SentinelOne also made available for the on-prem version because a lot of people in our region are not ready for cloud solutions.""Some reports could be better.""We'd like to have a network map or scan to cover network security.""Communication and documentation could be improved.""Security could always be better.""They can just continue adding more integrations with these big brands and software security products.""The solution’s distributed intelligence at the endpoint is pretty effective, but from time to time I see that the agent is not getting the full execution history or command-line parameters. I would estimate the visibility into an endpoint is around 80 percent. There is 20 percent you don't see because, for some reason, the agents don't get all of the information.""The learning curve was a little steep."

More SentinelOne Singularity Complete Cons →

"The solution can give a lot of false positives.""We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade.""The reporting could be improved.""The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization.""The solution lacks mobility.""The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""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.""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."

    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.
