In terms of stability, EDR is a pretty decent solution, but it's not best of breed. One of the challenges with Fortinet, and all of these vendors, is that they are doing acquisitions and doing things to retrofit into their environment, but there's a dependency on legacy or other features that Fortinet has, and Prisma from Palo Alto has. They have their own products, which are how their system is designed. It's really a suite of products. Fortinet is now FortiFabric, with Palo Alto it's Prisma, Prisma Cloud and XSOAR and all that stuff.
All these types of companies are not as flexible. I think in the future, people are not going to be interested in having these huge complex suites of products in order to take advantage of integration.
If you look at a true SASE solution, for example Zscaler, it's a product on its own. And it typically integrates with industry best of breed products first. So Zscaler would work with CrowdStrike or Microsoft Defender before it's going to work with an integrated solution like Palo Alto or Fortinet.
I'm finding more and more that these companies, Palo Alto, Fortinet, Check Point, Juniper, are all doing well right now. But I think in the next year to two, you're going to see a transition away from that type of technology.
It is actually one of Fortinet's big selling points that they're not maintenance heavy and they've got their gang leveraging all the other components. It actually updates itself automatically if you choose. And it has the ability, using FortiManager and other products, where you can push out policies very easily across multiple appliances, although that requires proper design and architecture from the beginning to make sure that you've got cookie cutter configurations across your enterprise.

The solution is stable and reliable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze.

We've had some erroneous warnings that didn't make sense. It gives me the impression of a product that still has some issues to resolve.
Additionally, there are three main areas of concern:
- The product itself seems to have some unresolved issues.
- The integration with the rest of the Fortinet ecosystem could be better. It feels standalone rather than part of an integrated solution.
- The high level of maintenance required due to the heuristics, or lack thereof. We keep seeing the same warnings and blockages even after updates. We need to constantly be on top of it, allowing traffic repeatedly.
So, all those factors impact the overall stability. There's room for improvement, especially considering it's a newer version.
Once it was up and running, customers didn't have any complaints about the product's stability.

It is a stable product.
View full review »Fortinet FortiEDR experiences a good journey in Sri Lanka if you consider the prices it offers and the competitive nature with Check Point and other vendors. Fortinet FortiEDR enjoys a good journey in Sri Lanka when compared to the other vendors. There is no need to convince the customer that Fortinet FortiEDR is good, as they already know about the advantages of the tool. Customers know about the other products in the market and know how the other tools are when compared to Fortinet FortiEDR. In general, customers have knowledge about Fortinet FortiEDR and the other products in the market. I have no complaints about the product since I don't find any disadvantages when it comes to Fortinet FortiEDR.

I'd rate the stability six out of ten. It does take quite a bit of memory. Sometimes this is not the most stable of platforms.
