Find out in this report how the two EPP (Endpoint Protection for Business) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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 setup is pretty simple."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"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."
"It actively monitors the behavior and activity of processes and will, without hesitation, terminate at root anything it determines to be suspect."
"I find the actual overall endpoint malware protection the most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT."
"The solution is stable."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"The most functional item that we use is the process to turn off the false flags that it causes."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"The product keeps our company safe."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the EDR and the complete feature set provided."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"The solution has a good management interface."
"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."
"It comprehensively finds and removes malicious software."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."
"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."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Detections could be improved."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"CylancePROTECT could be improved in its technical support and communication."
"While you are working, you are finding these things that were supposed to be waived have come back to being blocked. That's frustrating."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"An area for improvement in CylancePROTECT is its pricing, as it's a bit costly."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"The reporting is not as flexible as you would find with other antivirus software."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"Notifications are lacking."
"They can include advanced scanning and improve reporting. I scan malware on the pen drive. Some more reports need to be added for that. It should also provide better protection because we have a new version of the malware."
"We have noticed that when the solution is doing the scanning, all the scanning activities make the device heavier. It slows down your machine."
"We experience a lot of false positives."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"This solution reports far too many false positives!"
