Offers behavior analysis, improved our endpoint security posture but a lot of false positives where things are incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow
I would like to improve the integration process because a big selling point was the ease of integration within the Fortinet ecosystem. I would expect more built-in collaboration to allow for easier threat mitigation across Fortinet systems. The strength of FortiEDR lies in its overall ability to protect us from new threats. We have encountered issues with it as well. 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. I would like to see improved heuristics so the system better understands what's legitimate and doesn't keep blocking it after minor updates.

High consumption of resources and stability concerns, but user-friendly interface
One of our previous clients was utilizing a different EDR solution and was unable to fully comprehend the incident's flowchart. They were uncertain about the origin and the affected areas of the incident, and they could not determine which executable was capable of fixing the damage. As a result, we conducted a proof of concept test to demonstrate the effectiveness of ESET Enterprise Inspector. This test was invaluable in showcasing the flowchart of the incident and the specific executable required to resolve the issue. Subsequently, when the malware propagated to new devices, we were able to capture and document all the incidents in one centralized location.

I also like the ability to remotely manage update packages on your systems, and the fact that there is an open source version
I'm personally reviewing Xcitium Open EDR. We haven't started selling it as a solution to other people. The client is on-prem, but they also have a cloud-based EDR OpenEDR includes a firewall and antivirus in one solution. I also like the ability to remotely manage update packages on your…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"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."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy navigation and thorough analysis of incidents."
"Rules are the most valuable feature of ESET Inspect. They are created through XML language, and they track and filter events from endpoints. If the event matches the rule, the rule is triggered. Exceptions are the second most valuable feature because it gives you the power to filter false positives in large numbers. The third most valuable feature is the Learning mode that facilitates making exceptions for known processes with a good reputation."
"I find the multilayered endpoint security the most valuable feature."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's most valuable feature is EDR."
"The rules are the best and most useful features."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"Comodo includes a firewall and antivirus in one solution. I also like the ability to remotely manage update packages on your systems. Comodo can even find a lost device and secure it remotely."
 

Cons

"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"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."
"The platform's price could be better."
"The product is complex to configure, and there are too many errors that are not errors, making it an area that can be considered for improvement."
"It is not a stable product. We were disappointed in the stability of this product in comparison to McAffee."
"Every vendor is working on making the job of SOC analysts easier, with fewer false positives and more precise detections. ESET uses LiveGrid technology that provides feedback on the reputation of files and operations. It's hard to eliminate all of the false positives, but hopefully, we'll see some improvement with the advances in AI."
"It may be difficult for a first-time customer to understand all of the functions that are available to him."
"The solution could improve the consumption of resources. The RAM and CPU usage increases during usage which can cause issues. We have three separate services and it would be beneficial if all were executed from one agent limiting the over usage of system resources."
"Comodo includes a firewall and antivirus in one solution. I also like the ability to remotely manage update packages on your systems. Comodo can even find a lost device and secure it remotely."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's moderately priced, neither cheap nor expensive."
"I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
"Offered at a high price"
"We got a good deal on licensing, so it is in the competitive range."
"Fortinet FortiEDR is available at a very competitive price compared to the other products in the market."
"The pricing is typical for enterprises and fairly priced."
"The hardware costs about €100,000 and about €20,000 annually for access."
"The price is comprable to other endpoint security solutions."
"The platform is expensive; it could be cheaper."
"I feel it is a very expensive product."
"The pricing and licensing are the big issue now, in my opinion. If the price was less than other companies, or a one-time charge for service was available, I think there would be more users of this solution."
"This is true in the case of licensing, we do not have the most expensive products, and we don't have the cheapest product, it's somewhere in the middle. Perhaps a little higher from the middle, but we are known for what we provide to our customers, and they are pleased."
