"The most valuable features are the rollback feature, it's important for us. The AI models and are good."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Detections could be improved."

"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."

"The price of this product could be improved, especially the additional costs. I would also like to see better-quality graphics."
"In terms of what could be improved with Elastic, in some use cases, especially on the advanced level, they are not ready made, so you'll have to write some scripts."
"The tool needs to integrate with legacy servers. Big companies can have legacy servers that may not always be updated."
"Email notification should be done the same way as Logentries does it."
"This solution cannot do predictive maintenance, so we have to build our own modules for doing it."
"The problem with ELK is it's difficult to administer. When you have a problem, it can be very, very difficult to rebuild indexes."
"If the documentation were improved and made more clear for beginners, or even professionals, then we would be more attracted to this solution."
"We have a lot of false positives we see in the dashboard. I think this is the only problem we are facing."
