Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"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"
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"CrowdStrike Falcon offers a comprehensive dashboard that is highly effective in protecting against and blocking external infiltration attempts."
"I like the Overwatch feature the most."
"It is an easy product to deploy."
"This solution consistently releases improvements. They have communicated their next two years of development which is powerful and covers all of our needs."
"From what we have seen, it is very scalable. We have recently acquired a company where someone had a ransomware attack when we joined networks. Within the course of just a few days, we were able to easily get CrowdStrike rolled out to about 300 machines. That also included the removal of that company's legacy anti-malware tool."
"We like Falcon's network visibility. We can see how threats are evolving on PCS or in the company network. The solution's real-time incident response is very fast."
"As an EDR tool, we can integrate log management and event management. The solution deals with threats automatically, that's the advantage."
"The tool is easy to use."
"Kaspersky EDR is far superior to other products. It gives detailed information about malware, geolocation, and more. Also, the agent itself is very lightweight compared to other products. The packages and updates were quite small in size, just a few KBs."
"It downloads essential security patches that are valuable for my PC."
"Kaspersky offers more visible and comprehensive features compared to other products."
"The advanced detection features are valuable."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is its consolidated features."
"We have a concept of working from home. Most endpoints are not in the domain. It is our first line of defense. While we had Kaspersky deployed, it gave good insight into the upcoming challenge or threat."
"The product is integrated with endpoint protection. We don't have to implement a separate technology. It provides visibility over the endpoints."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"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."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Basically, they don't cover legacy OS or applications. That's the only issue we're concerned about"
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by having an easier way to search and use the interface for extracting queries from the data. The interface could improve."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve if it became an XDR. When we look only to an end-point, we lost the context of the environment. I know it's another line of design of the product. However, if CrowdStrike becomes an XDR, it could be very good."
"Falcon could be improved with more function on the mobile end of things and better optimization with mobile devices."
"We encounter occasional issues, such as when disabling network access for a host that uses CrowdStrike."
"On the firewall management side, there should be more granularity. There should also be more granularity for device control. Everything else is brilliant."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the logs by making them free to the API."
"The main issue was compatibility with the cloud itself. The CPU usage immediately spiked, causing the machines to hang and sometimes even forcing server or computer restarts."
"I want to be able to use the product as a patch management tool for my endpoints since it is an area that is not working effectively for me."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"The product does not detect zero-day threats."
"Enhancing user-friendliness should be a priority."
"Kaspersky EDR could be improved by adding network detection capabilities to enhance convenience and security."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response needs vast resources on the central node. Not all maintenance tasks are in the GUI, so we often use commands. The lack of documentation for these processes means we frequently reach out to support, open tickets, and run complex CLI commands. It's not the most straightforward process. It should also improve stability."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response lacks configuration options."
