Pros
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding.""Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out.""Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution.""It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward.""The solution was relatively easy to deploy.""Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture.""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.""The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."

"Sophos Intercept X is a very effective solution and its being cloud-based is a benefit. Wherever my users are, I can apply policies to them. In the era of mobility, when users are out of the office or they're in different locations, it doesn't matter.""The most valuable features are the range and restriction.""The key factor that attracted me to Sophos Intercept X was the multi-platform. I have multiple clients that have mixed environments of Mac and Windows. I am able to deliver a standard solution, regardless of the platform.""It is a very scalable solution.""The forensics within the solution are quite good. The ransomware mitigation is also impressive.""I am impressed with the tool's common dashboard feature. The solution is also easy to deploy and manage. Reporting is also easy with the software.""Intercept X's smart prevention it's very good as so are its machine learning capabilities for troubleshooting channels and files.""It is a practically maintenance free intelligent system that independently protects environments from malicious attacks."

More Intercept X Endpoint Pros →

"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution.""Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning.""The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins.""There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management.""We found the DLP to be innovative and useful.""The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls.""I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control.""Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."

More Seqrite Endpoint Security Pros →

Cons
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location.""The solution is not stable.""FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things.""The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions""We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels.""ZTNA can improve latency.""The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs.""I would like the solution to extend beyond endpoint protection and include other attack surfaces such as other network components."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The ADR functionalities feel like they aren't mature enough. It hasn't been a long time since Sophos has offered reproduction. Due to the fact that it's so young, it has fewer functionalities than other and more mature ADR solutions.""I'm not clear on what features need improvement. Everything is mostly fine.""Features that should be improved in the upgrade involve the excessive consumption of the the solution's processor, RAM and resources.""Better protection in the endpoint, server, and mobile is needed.""They should work on the logs and events. Sophos Intercept X needs to increase the interface test so that it can export to a live event.""I would like to see better support for virtual and desktop infrastructures.""Should include additional integration.""It has a performance hit on a local laptop. There's an agent installed and we are bothered a lot by it because it seems to be using a lot of computer resources."

More Intercept X Endpoint Cons →

"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP.""A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less.""In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control.""We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns.""I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market.""The pricing could be a bit lower.""I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection.""User management could be improved."

    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.
