We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and Tanium based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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 product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"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."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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."
"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."
"A unique feature with this product is that it will detect if the user is entering their password on a website, and then block it."
"The remote support is good."
"We are able to manage all our endpoints from a single cloud console."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"Deploying new versions of the endpoint are easy."
"The most important characteristic of our requirements was the implementation of disk encryption."
"Compared to its competitors, Check Point Harmony Endpoint has advantages in areas like EDR and behavioral detection."
"The solution has good threat intelligence features."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"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."
"The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed."
"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 most valuable features of this solution are the consolidation of all historical data on device endpoints, security drivers, firmware, and Software version gaps."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"Detections could be improved."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"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."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"The software requires considerable resources and can strain less powerful computers."
"The heartbeat interval must be improved."
"There are a number of features behind paywalls which can be frustrating when you are already paying a premium."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"The web filter service could be improved."
"From an improvement perspective, the major challenge we've faced with Harmony is the support."
"They need to focus on more scalability (as much as possible) so that the solution can run across all supported OS."
"The solution has limitations if it's hosted on-prem or as a SaaS."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
"The reporting could be improved."
"We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade."
"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."
"They could improve the UI."
"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 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."
