"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."
"Impressive detection capabilities"
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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."
"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"
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"Even if an endpoint loses connection to the Internet, I know that endpoint is protected against 99.99% of the threats in the wild today."
"One of the best features of the solution is that it's easy to deploy."
"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"The most valuable features are script blocking and macros within Word documents for stopping unwanted applications from running in the background."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"Does malware analysis. Blocks WannaCry and other attacks that have come out."
"The product is fairly technologically advanced and near the top of the market right now."
"It has many features, like deploying a package to many clients, an MDM solution, etc."
"The solution is user-friendly and the dashboard is good."
"Using dashboards, it is very easy to manage."
"This solution is stable."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business's most valuable feature is the ease of management."
"Especially the firewalling, I found useful, as you can control the applications and services on a granular level to tell them where they have access to or not."
"The malware threat detection has been excellent overall."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"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."
"The solution is not stable."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"Additionally, their channel management has been lacking, with a notable disregard for small and medium-sized businesses, focusing primarily on large enterprises and very large MSPs."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product's price should be more competitive."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"Kaspersky and most other security products have a lot of modules. They recently added several new ones. You find yourself buying and deploying so many things. There are some modules that everyone uses, like, for example, the orchestration module. Instead of selling them separately, it would be better to have bundles or an all-in-one license."
"We would like it so that if a user uses it on-premises, the server should use fewer hardware resources."
"Utilizing the CPU usages during the scan process needs to be improved."
"It is expensive, it could be cheaper, so I think the solution's pricing could be better."
"I'd like to see them improve encryption and remote management in the future. Kaspersky could also improve its scanning technology. Other solutions have adopted machine learning and deep learning, but Kaspersky still uses signature-based scanning."
"The support must provide quick responses."
"This product could be improved by integration with Linux. The one limitation this product has is that it's not compatible with and doesn't offer protection for Linux servers. It could also be easier to configure."
"The UI, user interface, could be improved."
