We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features.""The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls.""NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""The stability is very good.""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.""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."

"The solution does a good job of filtering and blocking unusual traffic.""The most valuable feature of Kaspersky EDR is its simplicity. The console is easy to use and not very complex.""The solution provides high-end security that is critical for financial institutions and bankers.""We have a central console and from there you can monitor all workstations via an agent.""The product has an easy-to-use EDR module based on signature-based antivirus detection. It is a complete software.""Has great behavior detection and a very good firmware scanner.""It helps improve security in our organization.""The most valuable feature is endpoint protection."

"The most valuable features of Red Canary MDR are its modeled after the MITRE ATT&CK framework and we can easily automate the containment of the endpoint. Additionally, it is easy to use and we have never had an issue with it.""The near real-time review translates into near real-time action. So, in addition to alerting, Red Canary MDR has response playbooks built out.""The solution works well for what we use it for and the support and protection are good.""The valuable features of this solution are it integrates well with different EDR software, such CrowdStrike, and Carbon Black, and the information it provides is helpful.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its automation part."

Cons
"The solution is not stable.""Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office.""There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components.""FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting.""Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later.""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.""To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The solution lacks DLP.""Kaspersky EDR currently has limited OS support. They only focus on Windows Server and Windows. Kaspersky recently released a Linux version, but it's rudimentary. It does not have any advanced features available on Windows platforms. They should increase their footprint on the Linux side and support other operating systems on the market, like MacOS.""We'd like to see them improve the automatic response.""Could include some additional protection.""It is not easy to follow the kill chain of a potential infection or malware.""The solution can improve by providing automatic fixing of vulnerabilities and reducing the resources used in the server component and endpoint agent. They are very bulky and use a lot of CPU, memory, and hard drive resources.""Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert needs to include a traffic interface.""It does not cover all of our security issues."

More Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert Cons →

"The most valuable feature of Red Canary MDR is the overall threat protection it provides.""There should be an easier way to update agents to new levels in Red Canary MDR. However, it is not a huge issue but it would help.""In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users.""The price could always be better.""I would like there to be an on-premise version of this solution for our data centers because of the proliferation of online threats."

    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.
