"The product keeps our company safe."
"The product provides notifications for suspicious events. We have several public access points. The product helps to prevent unauthorized entry.

"FireEye Endpoint Security's scalability is awesome. I think it is one of the best on that front."
"It is a really strong solution for endpoint security."
"The features we have found most valuable have been containment as well as the ability to triage agent activities."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its simplicity."
"I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"The solution is not stable."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"Detections could be improved."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The product is a little bit more expensive than the other brands."
"Requires increased efficiency in terms of detecting false positives."
"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."
"Strictly in terms of cyber security, the release cycle should be quarterly, at most. It shouldn't be more frequent than that because, for one thing, keeping up with tech support is difficult."
"Malwarebytes is too simplistic. From a SOC IR perspective, it doesn't give you very much data around it. It doesn't tie things or provide SHA-1 and SHA-256 detection information, which makes it hard to do an additional investigation."
"Notifications are lacking."
"The online reporting needs to be improved. Currently, we have to look at it online, and if we want to download a report, it just downloads as an Excel file. It's just raw information. There needs to be some way to better display it when it's downloaded."
"Overall, I haven't found any ways the solution lacks in features or usability."
"The product is consolidating its portfolio into one product. It is difficult at the moment."
"The Linux support is very poor. I use base detection. Currently, they are providing malware protection and logon track features in Windows and Mac. These features aren't available in Linux. It will be helpful to extend these capabilities to Linux. We would also like assets grouping and device lock protection features, which are included in their roadmap."
"The solution lacks device control."
"The solution needs to work on memory consumption. It is too high."
"The product’s on-premise version is costly in terms of extra charges for SQL database and Windows server licenses."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be better."
"The reports need more development. They need more details on the reports and more details taking the executive view into consideration."
"One suggestion is they should reduce the constant notifications. Whenever I open my laptop, there are too many notifications from McAfee, and it gets annoying."
