We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT and Elastic Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"This is stable and scalable."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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."
"CylancePROTECT works on AI technology, is always up to date, and uses very few resources on your devices."
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"You can manage all the threats and everything from a centralized dashboard."
"The solution is very quick at easily changing the levels of protection for each computer and the server."
"The solution is extremely scalable. It's got the hybrid functionality, it's got the system functionality and cloud functionality as well."
"It handles situations that the other threat management tools wouldn't find. It has worked well covering the weaker sides of the other products that we're integrating."
"One of the best features of the solution is that it's easy to deploy."
"It actively monitors the behavior and activity of processes and will, without hesitation, terminate at root anything it determines to be suspect."
"It is very quick to react. I can set it to check anomalies or suspicious behavior every 30 seconds. It is very fast."
"It's open-source and free to use."
"The most valuable thing is that this solution is widely used for work management and research. It's easy to jump into the security use case with the same technology."
"The most valuable feature is the machine learning capability."
"What customers found most valuable in Elastic Security feature-wise is the search capability, in particular, the way of writing the search query and the speed of searching for results."
"I like the indexing of the logs."
"It's simple and easy to use."
"The performance is good and it is faster than IBM QRadar."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Detections could be improved."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The solution is not stable."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"It should provide more details about the events that they have detected."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"The solution’s technical support could be improved."
"The product must make the interface a little more user-friendly."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions. This is the industrial environment where you have a control center for all the automation that's happening, whether it is oil, gas, or chemical manufacturing. They often have to set up a computer at the back and watch the other stuff to get alerts. In these autonomous or on-premises environments, they often don't have access to email readily. Integration with other industrial solutions, such as HMIS, will allow them to communicate and get an alert that something has been found. This way, they can react to it sooner than having somebody watch the screen and keep checking the screen. Rockwell has its own suite. Similarly, Honeywell has its own suite. There's also an independent HMI/historian solution provider out there called VTSCADA. We actually get asked if we can get it to show up on a screen, which is difficult. Getting those alerts to work within an industrial environment would be a huge plus."
"If you compare this with CrowdStrike or Carbon Black, they can improve."
"I would like more ways to manage permissions and restrict access to certain users."
"The process of designing dashboards is a little cumbersome in Kibana. Unless you are an expert, you will not be able to use it. The process should be pretty straightforward. The authentication feature is what we are looking for. We would love to have a central authentication system in the open-source edition without the need for a license or an enterprise license. If they can give at least a simple authentication system within a company. In a large organization, authentication is very essential for security because logs can contain a lot of confidential data. Therefore, an authentication feature for who accesses it should be there."
"We're using the open-source edition, for now, I think maybe they can allow their OLED plugin to be open source, as at the moment it is commercialised."
"We set up a cron job to delete old logs so that we wouldn't hit a disk space issue. Such a feature should be available in the UI, where old logs can be deleted automatically. (Don’t know if this feature is already there)."
"The training that is offered for Elastic is in need of improvement because there is no depth to it."
"The solution could also use better dashboards. They need to be more graphical, more matrix-like."
"Anything that supports high availability or ease of deployment in a highly available environment would help to improve this solution."
