Pros
"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.""The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors""Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance.""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 stability is very good.""The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."

"The cloud console is good and the tool is effective in protection.""I like its unified interface, which also helps you scan Outlook email, for example. Multiple products can be standardized across endpoints or the EDR solution, and the integrations with SIEMs.""It is very easy to configure and deploy.""The installation is easy and it takes approximately a few hours. We are deploying it from a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool. All you need to do is click on it and the installation is complete.""Virus scan and the ability to remotely install are valuable features. Being able to manage everything in one place and set different policies and rules for different computer types are very useful features. It also has ransomware protection. It is very simple to use, and it is very effective.""The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard.""The features I found most valuable in Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security include anti-malware, spyware detection, firewall, network detection, and user behavior analytics. The solution also gives you a heads-up about operating system misconfiguration.""The most valuable feature is the IDS."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security Pros →

"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community.""We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus.""The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps.""Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security.""The quick updates are really good. If a new OS update drops today, I'll have the Jamf Protect update within a few hours. It's also compatible with all Mac OS versions, and there's zero lag or performance impact.""Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention.""I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."

More Jamf Protect Pros →

Cons
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""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.""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.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution.""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.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"Machines with low memory and CPU may experience slow performance.""I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes.""The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved.""My main concern is that it's a bit heavy for some devices. Like Kaspersky or McAfee, it uses more RAM or memory. Similar to that, it causes issues for users and their own resources, similar to that. If you deploy on old legacy devices with only 1GB of RAM, then it could be a problem.""Overall, Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is quite good. It always has new features which customers can use for free, so I can't say that something is missing in the solution, though one area for improvement is that the cloud version of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security still can't connect to a central SIEM. The on-premises version has that capability, but the cloud version doesn't.""The solution's stability could be better.""The initial setup should be made easier.""The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security Cons →

"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices.""The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch.""I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful.""The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required.""The solution's integration with other tools is slow.""The solution’s stability could be improved.""Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."

    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.
