Pros
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""The price is low and quite competitive with others.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution.""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""The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""The stability is very good."

"It's stable and reliable.""It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product.""It's a very easy-to-use product.""Auto Containment is a valuable feature.""If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well.""They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice. They also have Windows patching and third-party patching. It was easy to use for protection. The containment engine was pretty nice for securing our environment.""Containment is the best feature of the solution.""The product’s valuable feature is the remote control station."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection Pros →

"Malware protection and application blocking are absolutely great. The DLP and malware features are very helpful. It is also very user-friendly, reliable, and scalable. It is easy to set up. We are also happy with its price and support.""It is easy to interact with, and its cost is also good.""Sophos Intercept X has a host of valuable features, including its anti-malware feature, which we considered key.""A valuable feature offered by Sophos is called Naked Security, and it entails the control managed by the firewall on the site regarding the desktop client interfacing with our cloud client.""One of the best use cases involves synchronized security staff, which allows us to manage both the firewall and the anti-virus features from the cloud.""Sophos Intercept X is a very effective solution and its being cloud-based is a benefit. Wherever my users are, I can apply policies to them. In the era of mobility, when users are out of the office or they're in different locations, it doesn't matter.""It is stable.""The most valuable features are the range and restriction."

Cons
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""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.""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.""FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations.""Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords.""The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers.""They need to enhance the performance of the agents. Currently, the performance is going low when the agent starts a full scan. The agent is consuming a lot of resources while scanning. When there are a lot of documents to check, it slows down the endpoint. This is the only thing that worries me about Comodo, but this issue is also there in other products. It is missing DLP, and I know that they are working on adding some data loss prevention capabilities. They have added some capabilities, but these capabilities are not yet mature. I hope they will enhance these capabilities because it is important to prevent the data from going out from inside. We are protected from the outside, but we also have to be protected from the inside out.""We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers.""They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology.""The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions.""The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer.""There could be MDRM features added to the product."

More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection Cons →

"If Sophos Intercept allows users to restrict website access based on specific needs, such as streaming new videos for business purposes, we would prefer to use that.""The performance is very slow and should be faster.""As for improvement, more notifications or emails about what to watch out for globally would be nice. For instance, information about the spread of a current phishing campaign or ransomware would be very helpful. I find that I have to dig in the back to find out what is happening on the global scene for things to be aware of.""I would like to have a built-in firewall, rather than having to integrate one.""Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond.""Features that should be improved in the upgrade involve the excessive consumption of the the solution's processor, RAM and resources.""When there is an event generated by either the firewall or Intercept X, and the originating IP address is the same, these should be merged into a single event rather than two.""It's a challenge to do system maintenance work on a notebook. You always have to disable Sophos first."

    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.
