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."It is stable and scalable."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"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"
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"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."
"It enhances our cybersecurity measures, especially beneficial for entrepreneurs."
"It speeds up processes, efficiently cleans up caches that would typically take a considerable amount of time to locate, and overall, it noticeably quickens the pace of my computer usage."
"The tool blocks malicious downloads. Its most valuable feature is the Autopilot mode."
"The dashboard and granular control features are great."
"I found Bitdefender Total Security easy to use. The interface is straightforward, and it runs silently in the background."
"The software consolidates multiple features under one license. Bitdefender protects against ransomware attacks. Furthermore, it covers various devices under a single subscription."
"The product is stable"
"I value Bitdefender Total Security for its effectiveness in scanning even the latest threats, and protecting my system from potential malware."
"We are very satisfied with the level of performance we get."
"We are using almost all of the features and we find it quite good overall."
"The level of automation is very good because the majority of the time, it blocks the attacks without requiring anything from our side. The technicians don't have to do anything. They are just alerted about what happened. So, the user intelligence works quite well."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is that the configuration and the usage of the product are not so complicated. For people responsible for using this infrastructure for the first line of workstation monitoring, it's quite easy to use."
"The initial setup is very fast and very easy."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution...The initial setup of Cynet was easy."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Detections could be improved."
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The solution is not stable."
"The solution could improve the way they manage it."
"I would like to see some flexibility in the ransomware limitations."
"It would be beneficial if Bitdefender could enhance the speed of its updates for a more immediate response to emerging threats."
"Bitdefender Total Security must expand its global presence, particularly in establishing legal offices in various countries, including Saudi Arabia."
"The stability could be improved."
"When it comes to areas for enhancement, I would suggest focusing on advanced threat detection to address evolving malware."
"Bitdefender Total Security should improve its resource usage. It should also work on cloud storage."
"If Bitdefender Total Security could reduce the processing power."
"There are some shortcomings in Cynet's integration capabilities that need improvement."
"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."
"It is an endpoint agent, but they don't have a probe for checking the network traffic. They could improve from this point of view."
"Its dashboard is not so good. On the dashboard, they don't show the count for client endpoints, which is a failure of this product. This count should be shown on the dashboard. I have 1,000 clients, but I can't see it anywhere on the dashboard."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"I cannot provide more details about Cynet's automation features. While Cynet claims to be automated, the specifics of this automation are unclear. They claim to have a high capability to detect and block attacks, but I am cautious about companies that claim to solve every problem without limitations. It does help in identifying malware on the network but doesn't specifically identify vulnerabilities."
"The solution just needs to keep maturing and they need to keep up with the threat landscape to ensure they're protecting clients well as time passes."
