Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats.""It is stable and scalable.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""This is stable and scalable.""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.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Pros →

"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use.""Cynet's most valuable features are laptop and server performance, internal network monitoring, and external firewall lock management.""The product has valuable front-end features.""The interface is exceptionally clear and easy to understand.""A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious.""It can be deployed in autonomous mode, and then it automatically blocks malware threats.""I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature.""The feature that I have found most valuable is that the configuration and the usage of the product are not so complicated. For people responsible for using this infrastructure for the first line of workstation monitoring, it's quite easy to use."

More Cynet Pros →

"It is a powerful tool for zero-day attack prevention.""The product works perfectly to prevent malware in our organization.""The standout features of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud include its cloud-based console and the simplicity of managing endpoints.""The most valuable component of the solution is the malware detection feature.""In terms of software performance, it has been effective in providing good security.""We had the cloud suite of KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud, and its monitoring was fine.""In Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud, anti-phishing and anti-malware are two very powerful aspects."

More Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud Pros →

Cons
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection.""We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""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.""Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later.""The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud.""Detections could be improved.""We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"I would like to see support for mobile protection and some additional reports included.""A support center in Asia is needed.""I would like to see more emphasis on building the data lake and storing all endpoint data in the enterprise data lake so that data mining can be performed""Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use.""In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability of this product for new threats. Meaning, not everything which is new is properly seen by the product and not all the required actions are taken.""There are some shortcomings in Cynet's integration capabilities that need improvement.""The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server.""Could have better integration with other security applications."

More Cynet Cons →

"It requires specific expertise or certified professionals to deploy the product. There is a need to expand the offerings to various industries covering different-sized businesses.""Kaspersky's global ranking has been on the decline.""Certain shortcomings in the anti-ransomware part of the solution need improvement. XDR and MDR, along with threat hunting, a big step in cybersecurity today, need improvement.""One area where the product could be improved is in its delivery and installation process.""The tool's update management can be better. In future releases, the addition of a DLP module would be valuable.""Sometimes, the tool consumes a lot of resources from the endpoints, making it an area of concern where improvements are required since it currently consumes a little bit of RAM.""The solution’s stability could be improved because we earlier faced an issue where the solution was not detecting file-less malware."

    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.
