We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Elastic Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"Impressive detection capabilities"
"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."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"Its setup is simple if you have a Windows device; it is executable."
"You can manage all the threats and everything from a centralized dashboard."
"The solution runs in the background, and I do not need to care about it."
"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."
"Very easy to deploy. It can be done one by one or deployed by customizing an MSI file for GPO push."
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"The solution is stable."
"One of the most valuable features of this solution is that it is more flexible than AlienVault."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to collect authentication information from service providers."
"The performance is good and it is faster than IBM QRadar."
"Enables monitoring of application performance and the ability to predict behaviors."
"It's simple and easy to use."
"The scalability is good. It can be scaled easily in the production environment."
"The most valuable feature is the search function, which allows me to go directly to the target to see the specific line a customer is searching for."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The solution is not stable."
"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."
"The support needs improvement."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"rom my experience interacting with the primary or the central administrative console, it's quite complex. You would need a fair bit of technical experience to set it up, implement and maintain it. That would be one area for improvement."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"CylancePROTECT's dashboard could be more user-friendly."
"The user interface is outdated."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"Email notification should be done the same way as Logentries does it."
"Their visuals and graphs need to be better."
"I think because we are a cybersecurity company, the thing that can be improved is the prebuilt tools, especially quality. Compared to its competitor, they still have fewer prebuilt security rules. Elastic Security, in terms of generating alerts, cannot group the same products into one another. Even though the alerts are the same, they still generate them one by one. So, it is very noisy in our dashboard. I would like the Elastic Security admin to group all the same alarms into one alarm so that our dashboard is not noisy."
"With Elastic, you have to build the use cases for the specific requirement. Other products have a simple integration and more use cases to integrate out-of-the-box solutions for SIEM."
"The Integration module could be improved. It is a pain to build integration with any product. We have to do parking and so on. It's not like other commercial solutions that use profile integration. I would also see more detection features on the SIEM side."
"With Elastic Security, the challenge arises from the fact that there is a learning curve in relation to queries and understanding the query language provided to extract usable data."
"Technical support could respond faster."
"If you compare this with CrowdStrike or Carbon Black, they can improve."
