"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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 product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"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."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"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."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"We have over 1,000 users using the solution in our organization and the solution has been able to handle it."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security protects against viruses and dangerous software, and it's also great because it has a component that is useful for the deployment of software versions to the end user's computer."
"Overall, the product is quite flexible."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its deployment. It is easy to centrally deploy. You can deploy it on the Administration Console then deploy it to the different endpoint machines without specifically deploying it manually on each machine. Its deployment is really user friendly."
"The main feature of this solution is it is easy to use."
"The advice I would give someone implementing this solution is that the management of the solution is very easy. You don't need a lot of people to manage the solution."
"Center Management"
"Easy to deploy, easy to use, and has a good detection rate."
"The solution is not stable."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"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."
"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."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product's price should be more competitive."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"Additionally, their channel management has been lacking, with a notable disregard for small and medium-sized businesses, focusing primarily on large enterprises and very large MSPs."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"rom my experience interacting with the primary or the central administrative console, it's quite complex. You would need a fair bit of technical experience to set it up, implement and maintain it. That would be one area for improvement."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"The management console needs a little maturity in how it presents data and allows the administrator to drill down or search across systems."
"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."
"We find that the solution uses up too much RAM and can slow down machines."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business doesn't have a built-in DLP (data loss prevention) solution."
"The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue."
"It is expensive, it could be cheaper, so I think the solution's pricing could be better."
"The installation is technical. You need to be certified."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
"Kaspersky could be improved by better malware protection. They have to take advantage of Malwarebytes and integrate the same engine inside Kaspersky. I use Malwarebytes as well because Kaspersky doesn't always detect malware."
"I would like to have more forensic features. For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
