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."I like FortiClient EMS.

You can also simulate phishing attacks."

"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."

"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
