We performed a comparison between Sophos EPP Suite and Trend Micro Deep Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)."The stability is very good."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"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"
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"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 FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The central management of the anti-virus features for our end user is a very valuable aspect of the solutions."
"The solution is easy to set up."
"The most valuable features of Sophos EPP Suite are the security and scanning of streaming media. Additionally, the solution is simple uninstall."
"If you want something simple to work with, Sophos makes it very simple for you to use."
"The web control and the application control are two good features."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"With Sophos, the scanning of viruses and scanning of the disk is done silently in the background."
"Intercept X is the most valuable feature in the solution. It's more or less pretty standard. The endpoint feature allows you to basically see what is happening, and stop a wide range of threats. It's been the most unique identifier for Sophos."
"Deep Security's most valuable features are antivirus and host intrusion detection."
"Automated virtual patching is a good feature."
"For day-to-day efficiency, it provides a good dashboard, so our team can be active 24/7 instead of doing a lot of manual stuff. We just look at the dashboard, and it's all done."
"In terms of valuable features, I would say its intrusion prevention. Each and every IP connecting to the server gets scanned so we know everyone who is accessing our server and we can block whichever IP's do not belong to us at the firewall."
"We use the solution to detect malicious threats, secure the endpoints, and disable the UFT."
"It provides the type of data and availability that we need to have. We don't have to worry about intrusions."
"There's useful monitoring on offer."
"The most valuable feature of the product is vulnerability detection."
"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 solution is not user-friendly."
"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."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Detections could be improved."
"The solution is not easy to use in comparison to other endpoint security solutions."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"Sophos is lacking in the granularity of optimization, so having more control would be better."
"The only drawback is that it requires a little more system configuration."
"The product's resource utilization is a concern, especially regarding memory usage on systems with older specifications such as lower memory and less powerful processors."
"In the next release, I would like to see the phishing attached included in the firewall."
"Sophos EPP Suite could improve by decreasing the number of resources it uses. There are other solutions that use one-fifth of the resources."
"In my country, having an on-premises deployment model is preferred. In this part of the world, on-premises is still the way many companies want to go. Therefore, they should supply some sort of option that allows for that reality."
"Installation and operations may have issues on some machines owing to their configuration of the network cards as the product is a DPI driver."
"What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality."
"Post-implementation is time-consuming. You have to do monitoring, and that takes time. After you set up everything, it's not a full-fledged implementation. You have to keep on monitoring and configuring."
"The setup is fairly complex. The deployment took around two months."
"The workloads must be better."
"Trend Micro is not government certified or federal complaint. If they could become compliant/certified, this would make it easier for us to use it for our government projects."
"It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR."
"Their automation needs improvement."
