Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other.""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.""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.""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.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""Impressive detection capabilities""The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls.""The price is low and quite competitive with others."

"The most valuable feature is the capability of the command used by the machine so that we see the kind of performance that is running.""The solution is efficient.""We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold.""The initial setup is not overly complicated.""The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI.""The initial setup was easy and straightforward.""Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered.""The interface is user-friendly."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response Pros →

"Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected.""The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection.""There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection.""F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates.""The notifications and patch management features are valuable.""On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly.""We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes."

More WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection Pros →

Cons
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office.""I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution.""Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection.""The support needs improvement.""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.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""The SIEM could be improved."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group.""There can be problems with the EDI.""Cybereason does not have sandbox functionality.""The network coverage becomes an issue most of the time.""It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity.""It initially took some time to deploy.""The deployment on individual endpoints is more geared toward larger organizations. It might prove to be a bit too complicated for a smaller organization. You need to know what you're doing when you're deploying the sensor.""While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper."

More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response Cons →

"I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved.""Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved.""But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software.""There is no technical support available in the Middle East.""There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge.""The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve.""The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly."

    Reviews from Real Users

    Below are some reviews and helpful feedback written by Fortinet FortiEDR users.

    An Owner at a security firm says, "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. The customer has literally about 800 cash registers. That was the use case for Fortinet FortiEDR - to get that down into a tiny space. The only way to do that was to use this product because it had that ability to unbundle services that were a surplus.”

    Chandan M., Chief Technical Officer at Provision Technologies LLP, mentions, “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.” He also adds, “The security is also very good and the firewall response is good.”

    Harpreet S., Information Technology Support Specialist at Chemtrade Logistics, explains, "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."

    DeAndre V., Senior Network Administrator at a financial services firm, states, “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.
