We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""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""It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward.""The product's initial setup phase is very easy.""The setup is pretty simple.""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.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."

"It is easy to install."

More DeepArmor Pros →

"The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors.""The interrogation piece was the most valuable feature because it was very detailed.""Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software.""The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization.""Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient.""Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively.""I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management.""I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."

Cons
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers.""We find the solution to be a bit expensive.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""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.""The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices.""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.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor."

More DeepArmor Cons →

"The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes.""The solution lacks mobility.""We had some issues with the solution's OS upgrade.""Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based.""Tanium's limitations should be improved because although it is a great tool, it is limited to only a few classes during a session.""The reporting could be improved.""It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model.""The solution can give a lot of false positives."

    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.
