"The most valuable feature of Fortinet FortiClient is its performance."
"Fortinet FortiClient can be used with FortiManager to observe all actions that are happening."
"The EMS server gives us good control and central management."
"We like its centralized administration, integration with Active Directory, deployment, and stability of the connection."

"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"For incident response tasks, all these tasks can get done in minutes with minimal disruption to the end-user."
"Tanium’s linear-chain architecture is valuable."
"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."
"I like the tool's incident response and security patching."
"Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"Detections could be improved."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"The support needs improvement."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The solution could improve by providing analytics or detailed reports."

"FortiClient's encryption key could be stronger so that it's not broken too easily."
"The solution could be more secure. I would like to see more safety features."
"The main issues are the network connection because different customers have issues with their networks. It's difficult implementing this type of solution because the network is the main feature in the architecture for these types of solutions. Tanium could improve by creating some network optimization."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
"Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"I would like to have more integrations and custom plugins to input. Integration is always a big deal in a lot of different environments."
