Pros
"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.""It is stable and scalable.""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 has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""The solution was relatively easy to deploy.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."

"Avast Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness.""It's straightforward to set up.""The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation.""Our favorite feature is the PC Patch Management.""The ease of deployment and the command center that they have are the most valuable. It is basically self-monitoring. It doesn't require that much tinkering after you deploy or install.""It's not heavy on the system.""The solution can scale well.""The solution is easy to use."

More Avast Business Hub Pros →

"The solution includes a good combination of features for both signature and signature-less.""The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security.""The solution is reliable.""The solution scales well.""This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection.""McAfee EndPoint Security has a lot of good features that work well if they are implemented properly.""Some of McAfee Endpoint Security's main features are it has benefits over normal conventional antivirus solutions because it works much faster.""Trellix Endpoint Security's dashboard is very flexible, and I can create my own user-specific dashboard depending on user privilege or preference."

More Trellix Endpoint Security Pros →

Cons
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""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.""To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""Detections could be improved.""FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting.""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.""We find the solution to be a bit expensive."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"Where I have faced a challenge is on the reporting. I would like to see something that provides information regarding the next month or quarter, in terms of reporting.""It could download faster during deployment.""The solution could improve by providing more security.""I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version.""Making the price a bit cheaper would be an improvement.""It could have a 10,000-feet overview of the whole infrastructure because the software is easily installable on the whole infrastructure and not just the infrastructure, but also the workstation themselves. I would love to have a 360 view of the whole network and basically see from where a test is coming, and if there is an instance in the cloud that is actually misbehaving or if there is a workstation that is infected and stuff like that. It can also have some kind of AI to detect all those things and then cut off the connection from that machine. In Cortex, you can link the logs, reports, and all that stuff. You can also see the full picture of when it happened, and you can trace it back all the way to a file or something else. I would like to see similar functionality in Avast Business Endpoint Protection.""The accuracy of the scanner could be improved.""Avast Business Endpoint Protection would be improved with more frequent updates."

More Avast Business Hub Cons →

"There is room to improve with scalability.""There are certain shortcomings in the features concerning DLP in Trellix, where certain additions must be made in the future.""We would like to see all the features available on cloud.""The platform needs improvement in terms of handling heavy databases.""One of the drawbacks is that it is not 100% secure.""The solution should provide a more easy way to uninstall it on specific stations.""The product is not easy to use.""Its pricing needs to be improved."

    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.

    Reviews from Real Users

    “It has a great console. We can manage everything from the central console and it is very easy. Every year we are getting the benefits of legacy also. It's easy to set up.” - S Fazlul H., IT Lead Engineer, Information Technology at Banglalink

    “There is a new feature where you can set thresholds for all the CPU consumption allowing for no consumption on the servers when the scans happen. It is a separate plugin or addon, and if we have it on all the virtual machines it automatically checks the resources, and based on that, it will schedule the scans. That is something that I have not seen in other antivirus solutions, such as Symantec.” - Sabari K. Senior Engineer at a comms service provider
