"The stability is very good."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"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 solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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 product offers all the essential licenses compatible with Windows, Mac OS, and mobile platforms."

"Impact on system performance is horrible, adding a lot of delays for users."
"The installation should be easier and the Palo Alto pre-sales and sales teams should have more information on the product because they don't know what they are selling."
"Previously, the endpoint would leave the environment, not being on our VPN, essentially unable to interact with the server to upload files. It was unable to retrieve new file verdicts.

"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."
"A little bit more automation would be nice."
"Managing the product should be easier."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks could improve by adding a sandbox feature to better compete with their competitors which have it."
"One area where Norton 360 could improve is the constant push for upselling."
"Norton 360’s features for device optimization could be better."
"The tool should be easily available in the market and should be cheaper."

"The integration with Android devices needs enhancement."
"I would like to see Norton 360 improve the speed of its cloud backup."
