"This is stable and scalable."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"he 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 have found Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to be highly scalable."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR's installation is straightforward."
"The advantage of the solution is that it has a console on the cloud and you can update the clients."
"It is a good anti-malware product that is highly stable."
"We have had no issues with the support and consider it to be good, even when it comes to accredited resellers."
"I haven't had a problem with its stability yet. Since we deployed it, we haven't had one computer instance where we had to reimage the computer due to the virus."
"The most valuable feature for me is the ability to whitelist, blacklist, and be very granular as to what I blocked, what apps I blocked, and what websites I block. I think that's probably the most valuable feature."
"I like GravityZone's short implementation time. It takes only a day, at most."
"We find the app control and its threat protection to be the best features."
"It is a practically maintenance free intelligent system that independently protects environments from malicious attacks."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the GUI."
"Sophos Intercept X has a host of valuable features, including its anti-malware feature, which we considered key."
"The most valuable features are the cloud administration and the strength of the ransomware protection."
"Anti-virus captures malicious threats and an aggressive next generation firewall."
"The threat analysis center is nice."
"It is a stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"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."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not stable."
"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."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"If we could directly push the agent to the script, it'll be very good."
"The only problem we have, and I don't know if maybe it's the package we bought, is that it lacks the parts of data protection and application blacklisting."
"The areas of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could benefit from improvement in terms of how problems are reported and displayed. The way the problems are presented and the information provided could be improved."
"The solution is sometimes resource-intensive."
"In the future, maybe this will need to morph into AI threat intelligence."
"What's happening now in this field is artificial intelligence, the behavior part. That is now the trend in many products, including Bitdefender, and this is where the product needs improvement."
"Occasionally websites are unnecessarily blocked due to monitoring software on those sites."
"They should include the Hebrew language for its technical support in terms of communication."
"Stability-wise, we had issues with some clients which had to be dealt with manually. The issue was with that installation part."
"The majority of our systems are MacBooks and their solution release cycle is slow to endorsing or support the MacBook's latest OS or hardware platform. For example, when Sophos macOS Big Sur version 11 was released, it took them a while to support this version of OS. A similar situation occurred when the MacBook M1 hardware CPU was released. They have not fully supported the native M1 CPU to this day. They need to speed up the solutions release cycle."
"They should work on the logs and events. Sophos Intercept X needs to increase the interface test so that it can export to a live event."
"The graphical interface could improve. Additionally, adding less expensive mobile device support would be helpful. Other solutions have this feature."
"The tool is not stable on Linux systems."
"If we can lower the price, it will be fantastic because it will generate more revenue for us."
"The technical support is the lone sore-point when dealing with this product."
"The pricing could be a bit lower to match the normal retail pricing."
