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."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"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"
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"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."
"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."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"It's good for large organizations. It's able to handle a lot of users."
"ATP is really impressive, and with EDR, it is the best solution I have ever known."
"Symantec End-User Endpoint Security is a stable solution."
"It is very easy to managing everything in relation to the implementation and processing. The initial setup is very easy."
"It's good at detecting signature-based stuff and stopping that."
"Some of the features that were important were a built-in firewall and device control."
"The solutions' main features are patch management and security."
"I think the key thing for me, is interoperability, in that you can deploy it to Windows, Mac, and Linux. That's been a really important feature in the last two years. Now there's one management console to cover all three OSs."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The support needs improvement."
"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."
"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."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"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."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"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."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"Symantec needs to develop some reporting features and notifications. For instance, if the server is not on or it's shut down. There should also be time-based USB control."
"There was an administrative feature, which was available in the previous version, which has been removed. We would like that feature to be added again."
"They should work on making the virus definition file lighter."
"I find the documentation on Symantec.com to be not very updated. It seems like Symantec focuses more on their product than on documentation."
"Overall, the price could be reduced."
"We must have complete dissolution with advance care protection but we are finding out that we need more Symantec technical specialists. We have identified a need to hire at least one more technical specialist familiar with Symantec to improve our solutions capabilities."
"There are a few negative points. They should separate the feature for each separate solution for mobile devices. The second one is about the price, it's expensive. Finally, the third would be the complexity of implementation."
"The agent shouldn't use up so many resources at the endpoint when scanning and protecting."
