Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"This is stable and scalable."
"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."
"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"
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten...I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"Foothold detection is a valuable feature, acting as a valuable second set of eyes for both us and our clients."
"It is incredibly efficient for our engineering team because Huntress provides all the information needed to fix issues, not just flag them."
"It catches things that no one else catches. We occasionally have things slip through antivirus and other things, but Huntress catches them. It is awesome as an additional layer of defense on top of other things."
"I have found it valuable that this solution is always there and always armed."
"Huntress helps by highlighting potential issues, allowing us to take proactive measures."
"The most valuable aspect of Huntress is its 24/7 SOC service."
"Huntress' best feature is the threat-hunting expertise that is part of their 24/7 SOC."
"The solution has good performance."

"It offers diverse features, such as antivirus protection, firewall, identity protection, secure VPN, device backup, password management, parental controls, and performance optimization."
"Norton 360 offers the best defense compared to other low-priced antivirus solutions. Its most valuable feature is storage and automatic backup. You can restore materials from the tool's cloud backup. It is encrypted with authentication."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"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.

"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."

"In the next release, I'd like to see more intuitive dashboards."
