Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"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."
"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."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"This is stable and scalable."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"I like the tool's incident response and security patching."
"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."
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"The security features are very valuable."
"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable."
"Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."
"Technical support is quite knowledgeable and helpful."
"I use Trend Micro Apex One for work control, application control, firewall, whitelist and blocklist filtration, analysis, monitoring, deep security for the servers, major monitoring, and IPS modules."
"The end user perspective is very good because the solution isn't complex to learn and support is readily available."
"Some of the valuable features of Trend Micro Apex One are DLP, encryption, and patch management."
"The solution is very simple to use and easy to deploy."
"I like Apex One's USB port blocking. We implement different policies for each client. For example, a client might ask us to block certain USB devices or require us to restart a desktop on the network."
"We don't use application control but instead, we use behavior monitoring, which is a good feature. The real-time scanning, data loss prevention, and endpoint sensor we use are beneficial"
"I am impressed with the product's antivirus and malware application control."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"Detections could be improved."
"The support needs improvement."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"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."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"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."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"They could improve the UI."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"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 most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session."
"No product can ever be rated a ten out of ten. They are always improving on one aspect or another."
"The technical support should be more proactive."
"The reporting can be improved. We'd like to have had broader insights as to what was happening on a machine."
"Sometimes HTTPS sites are not blocked properly."
"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."
"I don't give it a perfect 10 because of the Active Directory integration. It would make things easier if the Active Directory were integrated more seamlessly."
"The role-based access control needs improvement."
"It would be great it can support endpoint encryption."
