Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"It is stable and scalable."
"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."
"This is stable and scalable."
"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."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"Reporting is great, it is easy to do a quick search through 45 days of data for something of interest."
"What I like the most about this solution is the complexity. It covers a lot of areas, unlike other solutions."
"It has a rating system now so you can rate things up or down, depending on your environment. This means alerting can be customized, yet still pick up anomalies."
"The initial setup is very straightforward. The deployment of the server doesn't take so long; about a day or two max."
"Compared to similar solutions, it's quite scalable. You just need to add more storage to scale-up."
"There are many valuable features. The NDR gives very good network visibility, and the endpoint module has a great feature called "Live Connect" for remote connections. They also have "Tasks" that can be run on endpoints to gather specific information or retrieve logs."
"The solution's technical support is perfect, so I rate the technical support a ten out of ten"
"It has also improved our hunt ability with quick search tools, to zone in on malware or other anomalies. It is able to link items to incidents from other consoles, and works natively with the SIEM."
"Threat hunting is the most valuable feature of VMware Carbon Black Cloud."
"For setup, the server can be given to you as a VM image and with minimal configuration needed."
"Setting up and managing the setup for this solution is okay. It is stable, scalable, and it runs just fine. No issues with technical support."
"We are able to remotely isolate exploited endpoints in seconds and perform a live deep dive of any endpoint into its running processes (as necessary) without the need for extra scripts."
"The solution does very well as a baseline EDR and provides good process-level management."
"Carbon Black insures the probability that any ransomware will be stopped before spreading."
"VMware Carbon Black Cloud is a user-friendly solution that can isolate machines from the rest of the network."
"The most valuable features are its lightweight design, ensuring minimal impact on end-users, and its real-time protection."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"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 stable."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"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 solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The reports in the endpoint area of Elevate can be improved."
"There is room for improvement in email security. It's a security issue. If you're aiming for XDR, covering the entire threat landscape is crucial."
"Configuration, in terms of building the collector and communicating with endpoints, is complex."
"I encounter difficulty removing certain entries in behavior or alerts; likewise, I am unable to add specific calls."
"The interface bug needs to be squashed once and for all. This has been the predominant issue with an otherwise stellar product. It reboots itself unscheduled, about once a month, due to a memory buffer flaw in the interface."
"Fidelis Endpoint is an expensive product making it one of its shortcomings that needs improvement."
"We position the solution as an antivirus, but this part of the solution needs improvement. They need to generally enhance the features that they have, rather than adding anything new."
"The threat intelligence feed could use some fine tweaking."
"They need to improve the batch console. It needs more capabilities. We are limited by the ones it provides..."
"It's not simple."
"Training and education for both partner and customer, including product marketing need to be improved."
"The solution can only handle about 500 bans or blocks."
"The solution's support could be improved."
"Technical support for the solution should be improved because there is a scarcity of support teams in the Middle East."
"The solution needs to simplify the process of adding custom watchlists, as well as embrace YARA for rule creation."
