Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR)."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"
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"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."
"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."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"The 10 hours a week that we are freeing up from having to manage and monitor our AV solution has really allowed us to focus on other areas of the business. This has been a huge return on investment."
"The most valuable feature is the activity dashboard because it gives you a holistic view of your environment from a security standpoint."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon is its accuracy."
"We are happy with CloudStrike's ease of use and touch notification."
"The CrowdStrike Falcon agent is very lightweight. Users never complain about their PCs getting stuck and things like that."
"The most valuable feature of CrowdStrike Falcon for me is its unified sensor, applicable across all models."
"CrowdStrike Falcon's scalability is good. We have thousands of students using this solution."
"I like the overall reports of this solution. They are crisp, and to the point."
"The most valuable features are the rollback feature, it's important for us. The AI models and are good."
"Detections could be improved."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The solution is not stable."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"A year and a half ago or more, if you put in a support request by email, then it wasn't timely addressed. It could be a day to three days before you received a response, which was a bit frustrating. There was a lot of customer feedback around this issue, which has been greatly refined."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve the EDR functionality. Once the functionality of the solution improves, it will be even better in the market and able to compete with Carbon Black."
"CrowdStrike Suites and the way that it bundles things can be a bit challenging. It should be easier to integrate with the other stuff that they sell or be included with what they sell. We have one piece, then they are talking about another piece on vulnerability management all of the sudden, and we don't own that piece. We can see it in the console, but nothing shows up. It simply appears within the tool as an option, but we can't use it without purchasing it."
"The price is too high."
"The pricing structure should allow for some flexibility."
"It does take more time to scan than other solutions."
"There is room for improvement in managing multiple customer IDs."
"We would like to be able to perform on-demand scanning, rather than relying on the scheduler."
"We have a lot of false positives we see in the dashboard. I think this is the only problem we are facing."
