"It is stable and scalable."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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 scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"The stability is very good."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
"One of the most valuable features is the ability to manage antivirus security. There is an admin console that helps you make policies and do deployment of the clients, to make them reachable and to deploy updates."
"The centralized console is great for us. It gives us one centralized console to manage all of the endpoints."
"It is very easy to use and keeps us secure."
"Endpoint Protection is the next generation. It covers antivirus, spamware, ransomware..."
"It just works. We have a console, and I can see it at a glance. I don't have any problems with it at all."
"The performance of Symantec End-User Endpoint Security is very good. It does not slow down the computer like other solutions."
"Great security and very user friendly."
"The installation was very easy."
"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."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"The solution is not stable."

"If the agent can be minimized so that it can work with in-memory concepts, that would be ideal. As of now, it is file-based, signature-based."
"The detection and response can always be improved."
"Automation of tasks should be improved on SEPM. It is currently manual, and we should be able to automate installation and deployment from the client side."
"The virus definitions could be updated more frequently."
"Future releases should ideally be cheaper."
"Sometimes tech support is a bit slow to find a solution."
"Must push to EXE files to the endpoints."
