"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"Impressive detection capabilities"
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"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."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"It's got a very friendly user interface."
"Secure and easy connect is the most valuable feature. It is a reliable solution, and it works."
"It is a feature-rich product that is easy to use and install without sacrificing security."
"I find it very easy to configure and also very stable."
"The solution has inexpensive scalability, works very well and can communicate with other Fortinet devices."
"It is a stable solution."
"The product is user-friendly."
"The VPN has proven to be quite useful."
"The best part about Ivanti and Matrix 42 is that they are low-code solution builders with drag-and-drop capabilities regarding service management."
"The most valuable features of the solution are accessing the data through the mobiles and meeting with the compliance for security best practices."
"Patching and remediation are the strongest features."
"The key differentiator is that it manages mobile devices and laptops in the same console. Windows and Linux are on the same console. This is the only product that does this. It's really the best in the industry."
"It provides security features for unified endpoint management."
"The most valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager, which my company mainly uses, is patching. Another valuable feature of Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is that it allows you to view the inventory list of the different machines."
"The solution's most valuable features are its patch management functionality and provisioning."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"The SIEM could be improved."
"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"
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"Technical support needs to determine priority level based on the cases rather than the support package bundle."
"FortiClient's encryption key could be stronger so that it's not broken too easily."
"The solution should have faster turnaround when it comes to new technology."
"Fortinet needs to cover more areas where threats can come from."
"The memory check needs to be improved, giving better visibility into the run-time memory."
"FortiClient is not communicating with the new version of the firewall."
"Cloud services are very expensive for us."
"There is room for improvement by increasing the solution's knowledge base."
"If I want to integrate the solution with any other solution, pushing the policies from the Ivanti side is a bit tough."
"The solution needs a complete overhaul or makeover. It gets stuck sometimes because they're focusing on the cloud UEM stuff rather than paying as much attention to that particular piece. The ease of use could be improved. It combines many different functionalities that you would need multiple servers like SCCM. If I wanted to train people, I’d move to a higher level from an Apache architect. There are five or six different products. So, training functional staff to use the product can be challenging because it can sometimes be cumbersome. Reporting is challenging. We use Avanti extraction to report off an endpoint. We don't use the reporting because of the need for more functionality, granularity, or customization."
"Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager's support provided to its users by the vendor is one area that needs to improve."
"One of the features that Ivanti could improve is patching for non-Windows settings, such as Linux and Ubuntu."
"An area for improvement in Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager is reporting. It's lacking. For example, Ivanti Endpoint Security for Endpoint Manager reports should tell you if the agent is up to date, if the security patch is updated, etc."
"The product's blocking definition needs improvement."
"When you open a new mobile, you automatically come onboard the mobile on the Ivanti platform but it needs some improvements."
