Fortinet FortiEDR Reviews

The primary use case of the solution is to help protect our components.

Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.

When the Fortinet FortiEDR is enabled sometimes our applications stop. The solution causes our applications to crash. There is room for better integration to prevent stability.

The exception handling for the on-prem version has a cap compared to the cloud version and can be improved.

I have been using the solution for ten months.

The solution is not stable. I give the stability a two out of ten.

The solution is scalable.

We have 2,000 people using the solution.

We have a premium technical support service through Fortinet.

The initial setup is complex. I give the deployment a three out of ten.

We are still in the process of deploying the solution.

The price is comprable to other endpoint security solutions.

I give the solution a five out of ten.

Three dedicated people are required for maintenance.

I do not recommend the on-premise version of the Fortinet FortiEDR. I recommend people use the cloud version instead because it is more stable.

We would have used this solution for endpoint detection EDR, which we don't currently have. We wanted to see how it works with the discovery of the history of some things that might come up.

The dashboard is easy to follow and use. 

The deployment and uninstalling were easy.

I like the detailed information about the path of a file that might be suspicious. Being able to check that out was easy to follow.

Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.

The SIEM could be improved. I would have liked to see that you could access the same SIEM or Fortinet EDR dashboard from the same login, but I heard that they were different, which was a bit of a letdown.

I used this solution for a month to do a PoC.

I was using the latest version.

It's a stable solution. It would fit our organization's needs.

We are currently using Cylance.

The initial setup was straightforward. There were no complexities.

The deployment didn't take long at all. It took more time to create a Cylance install and push-out to the network to do anything. It didn't really take that much time. It was no problem.

There are no issues with the pricing.

We were using a demo for both Fortinet FortiEDR and SentinelOne. We were doing PoC on both to see which one we wanted to use.

We wanted to see the differences between them and Cylance.

I would rate Fortinet FortiEDR an eight out of ten.

We work with the end-to-end Fortinet portfolio, especially their UTM firewall, anti-APT, and EDR solutions.

Fortinet has improved our customer satisfaction. This is primarily what I see.

Fortinet FortiEDR is easy to use. It is easy to deploy, manage, and configure.

Fortinet helps free up around 14 percent of our staff's time to work on other projects.

Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers. The support is also very good.

To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.

We are a global system integration partner with Fortinet, and we have been reselling Fortinet products for more than ten years.

I give the stability an eight out of ten.

I give the scalability a seven out of ten. Fortinet must consider performance when scaling, and ensure that the performance is not impacted.

The technical support is good.

Positive

We switched to Fortinet because it is easy to use.

The initial setup is straightforward. The deployment configuration is straightforward.

We are a reseller, so we implement the solution for our clients.

We have seen a return on investment in the form of time saved and increased customer satisfaction.

The pricing is good. Prices used to be lower, but I think they are getting higher.

I evaluated Palo Alto and Check Point firewalls. Fortinet is user-friendly.

I give Fortinet FortiEDR an eight out of ten.

The time to value depends on the complexity of the solution and can take anywhere from two to fifteen days.

This is my third time attending RSA. I always look forward to meeting my old friends, and I always come away with a lot of knowledge.

Attending RSA gives us the opportunity to explore new cybersecurity vendors for potential future purchases.

The 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. 

I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components. 

I have been working with the product for three years. 

I would rate the solution's stability an eight out of ten. 

I would rate the product's scalability a ten out of ten. 

I would rate the solution's setup an eight out of ten. We have deployed the solution on the cloud and on-prem. The tool's deployment took three weeks to complete. 

I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten. 

I would rate the product an eight out of ten. We work with medium customers. The product's integration and customer service are great. 

We primarily use the solution as an EDR. We use the product to keep things homogenous as the company uses a lot of Fortinet products. 

The solution was relatively easy to deploy.

Our whole environment is using Fortinet and this integrates well into it. 

I've never tried the solution in mixed environments. I'm not sure if it would work well in an environment with Palo Alto or Cisco.

The support needs improvement. 

It is not a good product for smaller organizations or organizations under 500 endpoints. 

Having a fully integrated team would be nice. Recently, we had to use a third-party team. 

We only started using the solution about 12 months back.

I'd rate the stability six out of ten. It does take quite a bit of memory. Sometimes this is not the most stable of platforms. 

I'd rate the scalability at seven out of ten. 

We had issues with scaling. We had to use a third-party team which was an issue with the deployment. When we had to expand there were complications. We ended up exceeding the number of endpoints we signed up for. It was not sized properly.

The companies using the solution would have to be large or medium-sized at least. It wouldn't be economical to use for a small company. If a company has under 500 endpoints, it wouldn't necessarily make sense to use the solution. 

We've been disappointed with technical support. They need to improve their services. Having a fully integrated team would be nice. Right now, we deal with a third-party team and have had some issues with them.

Neutral

I also use Cynet and prefer that to FortiEDR.

Cynet is easy to use. It's basically launch and leave.

It is straightforward to set up and easy to deploy.

The pricing for FortiEDR is pretty high. It's not affordable for small companies. I'd rat the affordability three out of ten in terms of affordability, with ten being affordable. 

I'm an end-user.

I can recommend this solution, however, it wouldn't be at the top of my list in terms of recommendations.

I'd rate it six out of ten overall. There is quite some space for improvement.

We own facility houses for the elderly and I'm a network and system admin. We are customers of Fortinet.

The solution is stable and scalable. 

We'd like to be able to put this on our mobile devices and make secure connections to our network. It would be great if we could bring this product in a single MDM application for mobiles, Androids, and for IOSs. It's complicated to administer so I'd like one application for all these things. 

I've been using this solution for two years. 

The solution is stable. 

The product is scalable, we have 30 users in our company. 

The initial setup is a little complicated. We have three admins currently involved. 

Licensing costs could be lower. 

This product is currently in our test environment and I like it and rate FortiEDR eight out of 10. 

We use FortiEDR in the education sector, where we have customers with multiple students, each with their mobile phones and endpoints. Our primary use case involves protecting and monitoring these endpoints for threats or anomalies. It helps us correlate incidents and events to ensure a secure environment for our clients.

The integration capability with FortiGate has been valuable as it enhances our customers' network visibility. Additionally, the automated response features, which allow us to quarantine endpoints and conduct further investigations when threats are detected, have proven effective in maintaining security.

The platform could be improved by enhancing network visibility and reducing the frequency of false positives. Leveraging AI for more accurate threat detection could also significantly improve its effectiveness.

I have been working with FortiEDR for around three years.

I find the platform to be stable. I rate the stability an eight out of ten.

I would rate the product scalability an eight out of ten. It effectively scales to meet the needs of medium-sized organizations.

The setup and deployment are relatively straightforward.

The platform is cost-effective. I rate the pricing a ten. 

FortiEDR is a robust solution for medium-sized companies, especially in sectors like education where endpoint security is crucial. Its integration with other Fortinet products can significantly enhance network security and visibility.

I rate the product an eight. 

The most valuable attributes of the solution stem from the features of the next-generation firewall.

I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution. In the future, I am interested to see the use of AI in Fortinet FortiEDR.

I have been using Fortinet FortiEDR for three years.

The downtime we faced in our company was not because of Fortinet FortiEDR.

It is a scalable solution.

I rate the technical support a seven out of ten.

Neutral

The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

From what I remember, the product's deployment process did not take too long.

I am still in the process of comparing Fortinet FortiEDR to Cisco, and till now, I have found Fortinet FortiEDR to be an easier tool to use.

I recommend those who plan to use the solution to give it a try. Considering all the use cases, different environments, and costs, people need to find the best solution that suits them well.

I rate the overall product an eight out of ten.
