Pros
"The stability is very good.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""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.""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."

"Dell Data Protection has a decent service and integrates well with users' active directories.""It is a stable solution. Our company faces no problems with the backup system…The initial setup wasn't complex.""It is a stable solution.""The most valuable features of the solution are its speed, backup speed, and restore speed.""The backup speed and deduplication are the most valuable features.""There's a really they have a really nice way to test it first. Before you adopt it. And so I would suggest trying to they they create a test site for you, and they give you a link to it, and you can basically try out all the features on your own for I think we did it for a month.""The security engine is effective at catching potential threats."

"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will.""The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present.""It monitors traffic and keeps us from getting ransomware or other viruses.""Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight.""It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution.""The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities.""The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful.""Low performance requirements."

Cons
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""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.""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 only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller.""I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution.""Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The solution’s user interface should be made more user-friendly.""I consider the product pretty expensive, so from an improvement perspective, I would like the pricing to be better.""The solution could be more user-friendly.""The backup speed and deduplication are the most valuable features.""Implementation in a beta environment is necessary before rollout to the larger community.""Whenever we talk about reporting, I have a chance to look at the reporting, and in my opinion, it's not user-friendly."

More Dell Data Protection - Endpoint Security Suite [EOL] Cons →

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement.""Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement.""Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something.""It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives.""We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out.""The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection.""It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer.""Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."

    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.
