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."Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"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."
"The stability is very good."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."
"Containment is the best feature of the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"It's a very easy-to-use product."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."
"The product’s valuable feature is the remote control station."
"If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well."
"ATP is really impressive, and with EDR, it is the best solution I have ever known."
"The features are very nice. We are getting updates continuously from the Symantec side regarding any attacks, such as zero-day attacks. Symantec helps us in mitigating any attacks or threats early."
"It is very easy to use and keeps us secure."
"Symantec is very user-friendly, the interface and functions are very simple for everyone to understand. Additionally, it's a very robust system."
"The IPS function (with no firewall needed to be installed in the SEP client) is quite good."
"Symantec Endpoint Security is easy to use, fast, and good for small and medium-sized businesses."
"One of the features is the ability to frequently get virus signature updates."
"It is very easy to managing everything in relation to the implementation and processing. The initial setup is very easy."
"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."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"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."
"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."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"Detections could be improved."
"Would be good to have a better understanding of what it is that you've got in quarantine."
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
"There could be MDRM features added to the product."
"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers."
"If there is a suspicious file, it is put into a sandbox where Symantec does an analysis. After the analysis, Symantec marks the file as a risk, but it doesn't blacklist or block the file. If a file is already known to be harmful, I would like them to automatically block or blacklist it to reduce the damage."
"The solution could be more secure and scalable."
"If Symantec wants to improve, they should have a single event for all their products."
"The Sandboxing and ATP functionality does not integrate very well, improving this would be helpful."
"One suggestion I have for both regular and mobile would be to collect all the information about installed software, such as versions, and give that information to the manager to help with software management. That would be a huge advantage for everyone who administers these tools."
"I think the CPU dependence should be enhanced."
"Users mostly complain that the solution slows down the system whenever something is scanned."
"Technical support could be more responsive."
