We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy.""The stability is very good.""We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats.""It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward.""This is stable and scalable.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.""Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration.""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"

More Fortinet FortiEDR Pros →

"Technical support is great. Palo Alto is extremely helpful and responsive.""It basically automates the entire alert investigation process.""The ease of deployment is a valuable feature."

More SECDO Platform Pros →

"They're highly stable in comparison with other solutions I have.""Integration and scalability are the most valuable.""We also took full advantage of its incident response reporting capabilities to act as a “black box” for our infrastructure around strings of suspicious activity. The reporting and incident response capabilities were incredibly helpful during active security concerns.""The most valuable features are its lightweight design, ensuring minimal impact on end-users, and its real-time protection.""​The ability to isolate an endpoint with only the host name and a click of a button is a major time saver.""Setting up and managing the setup for this solution is okay. It is stable, scalable, and it runs just fine. No issues with technical support.""Carbon Black Cb Response excels at providing context to indicators when responding to incidents. It allows responders to understand the entire scope of an incident and quickly contain it to minimize impact and disruption.""For setup, the server can be given to you as a VM image and with minimal configuration needed."

Cons
"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.""There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors.""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.""Detections could be improved.""The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage.""The SIEM could be improved.""FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The price should be reduced in order to be more competitive in the market.""Many will try to use this as an out-of-the-box solution, however, it needs to be configured to fit what a company would like to do with it.""Maybe the notifications setting could use a simpler setting."

More SECDO Platform Cons →

"Training and education for both partner and customer, including product marketing need to be improved.""The biggest issue I encountered was one where old logs were not being overwritten as expected so the system drive kept filling up from time to time. However, support was usually quite responsive and happy to jump on a remote session to take a look at it for us. That log bug has probably been resolved with an update by now.""Technical support for the solution should be improved because there is a scarcity of support teams in the Middle East.""Setup is incredibly complex and poorly documented. Every time an upgrade was needed we would need to engage Professional Services for troubleshooting help. Certificates and web services proved to be the most significant sticking points. Since the product runs on a Linux platform, perhaps having staff with more Linux experience could have alleviated some difficulty.""They have different products, but if we wanted to take their protection and their EPR, then we would need to have two agents""The support team of Carbon Black CB Response needs improvement. At present, they need a lot of information. Then they give you an answer that they already gave you. You tell them it didn't work, and then they take a long time.""They need to improve the batch console. It needs more capabilities. We are limited by the ones it provides...""Additionally, it is complex to use, and the pricing should be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "I know it is tough to get big budget additions up front, but I highly recommend deploying environment wide and adding the forensic service."
  • "There are no issues with the pricing."
  • "The price is comprable to other endpoint security solutions."
  • "The pricing is typical for enterprises and fairly priced."
  • "I'm not familiar with pricing, but it looks a bit costly compared to other vendors I think."
  • "The pricing is good."
  • "I would rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten."
  • "The hardware costs about €100,000 and about €20,000 annually for access."
  • More Fortinet FortiEDR Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "Be sure of the actual number of endpoints in your company."
  • "The price of this solution is the highest in the market, although there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
  • More SECDO Platform Pricing and Cost Advice →

  • "We had no issues purchasing through our preferred reseller and were able to get a fair price even when not purchasing direct. Carbon Black Enterprise Response didn’t break the bank, though adding on the matching antivirus and anti-malware components of the Protect product was more than we could afford, even with some discounting. Cb Response is really designed to complement Carbon Black’s Defense product. While Response can be used on its own, coupling with Defense seems like the best strategy if you can afford the price tag."
  • "Purchase Professional Services up front as part of the implementation package, then renew hours annually to ensure you have adequate support for upgrades and enhancements. Overbuy by at least 10% to account for infrastructure growth."
  • "Pricing for this solution could be made lower."
  • "The solution is very inexpensive so there is great cost savings to using it."
  • "You need to pay for the licensing of the product. The pricing is costly."
  • "VMware Carbon Black Cloud is an expensive solution."

    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.

    SECDO enables security teams to identify and remediate incidents fast. Using thread-level endpoint monitoring and causality analytics, SECDO provides visibility into every endpoint along with the context necessary for understanding whether a suspicious activity is a genuine threat. Unique deception techniques force threats like ransomware out into the open early, and trigger automated containment and remediation.

    SECDO provides the most intuitive investigation experience available so you can quickly unravel complex incidents across the organization.  You can investigate incidents detected by SECDO as well as alerts from the SIEM. SECDO visualizes the attack chain so you immediately understand the “who, what, where, when and how” behind the incident. Then, based on an analysis of exactly how endpoints were compromised, SECDO surgically remediates the incident with minimum user impact.

    Fortify Endpoint and Workload Protection Legacy approaches fall short as cybercriminals update tactics and obscure their actions. Get advanced cybersecurity fueled by behavioral analytics to spot minor fluctuations and adapt in response. Recognize New Threats Analyze attackers’ behavior patterns to detect and stop never-before-seen attacks with continuous endpoint activity data monitoring. Don’t get stuck analyzing only what’s worked in the past. Simplify Your Security Stack Streamline the response to potential incidents with a unified endpoint agent and console. Minimize downtime responding to incidents and return critical CPU cycles back to the business.
