Pros
"It is stable and scalable.""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.""Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""The product's initial setup phase is very easy.""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.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."

"Their remote management (RMM) is very good.""The most valuable features of Panda Security Adaptive Defense are the useful hardware information it provides, light on resources, controllable from the console, remote scan functionality, and the blocking of a lot of URL malware.""Adaptive Defense is pretty easy to use, and Panda support is excellent.""I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself.""It allows us to stop activation windows.""We have control over our devices, specifically USB ports, allowing us to block or control the traffic.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its device control.""The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."

"The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection.""On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly.""Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected.""The notifications and patch management features are valuable.""F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates.""We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes.""There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection."

Cons
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later.""ZTNA can improve latency.""Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection.""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.""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.""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.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"Panda Security Adaptive Defense’s stability could be improved.""It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage.""The stability could be improved. My teammates who use Panda Security and I have experienced some issues.""I would like to see better data protection.""The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system.""For some urgent updates, I don't like the need for the tool to be frequently restarted.""The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution.""They could have more reports."

More Panda Adaptive Defense 360 Cons →

"The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve.""I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved.""Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved.""There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge.""The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly.""But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software.""There is no technical support available in the Middle East."

    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.
