We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""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 stability is very good.""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.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."

"The solution has a high level of trust in the industry.""It is a bit early in our evaluation process to give proper feedback, although so far, the overall feedback is good.""CylanceOPTICS is easy to use.""It's pretty unintrusive""The initial setup was fairly straightforward. To get a large health care organization sorted, we had to create exemptions because some of the scripts and some of the automations were broken.""It automatically blocks the threats, helping us investigate if they harm the environment.""CylanceOPTICS is pretty stable.""I would rate the stability a nine out of ten. I would give it a close ten as possible because, like SentinelOne, I've seen incompatibility. Whereas Cylance, I've seen none."

"The product is stable.""It is a scalable solution.""It offers good scalability.""WithSecure includes an encrypted drive that stores a key for accessing the encrypted data.""The only issue that we have today is with false positives. We have too many false positives with the solution.""I use the solution to protect our infrastructure. The tool has special frames for banking. There is an additional secure filter for banking-related pages. It protects me from viruses, malware, and attacks."

Cons
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.""We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels.""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""The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""The support needs improvement.""ZTNA can improve latency.""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."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"CylanceOPTICS could benefit from more granular control in the timeline-building process. Ideally, users would be able to drill deeper into the analysis rather than have the machine dictate the direction.""The product's technical support is slow.""The reporting is very weak and not very good at all.""One minor issue that somebody mentioned was that they didn't like their management console.""The detection component is something that they have to work on.""The tools are ineffective. It flags a lot of things. To give you an example, it detected Google Chrome and blocked the user's access to it. That it mistook for malicious, which turned out to be a false positive.""The technical support could be improved although it's probably better than you get with a lot of the other traditional antivirus solutions""Our customers would like to see more automation with respect to how threats are handled once they have been detected."

More CylanceOPTICS Cons →

"The monthly reporting feature of WithSecure can be improved.""The initial setup is very straightforward.""Its automated functionality could be better.""The tool’s mobile version needs to be improved.""WithSecure Elements Endpoint Detection and Response is scalable. My company has 800-1000 customers.""The website rules are too complicated."

    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.
