We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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 stability is very good.""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.""Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance.""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.""Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR.""Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great.""The product's initial setup phase is very easy."

"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex.""The most valuable features of SonicWall Capture Client are CSC (Capture Security Center), RTDMI (Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection), and the deep memory inspection feature.""The initial setup is straightforward.""The solution serves as a very stable platform.""SonicWall Capture Client has a serial number to connect to your firewall.""SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."

"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product.""I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution.""The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself.""Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight.""It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution.""Doesn't consume resources or affect the computer performance at all.""The solution is very simple and straightforward to use.""I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."

Cons
"The solution is not stable.""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.""Detections could be improved.""To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced.""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 SIEM could be improved.""It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."

More Fortinet FortiEDR Cons →

"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency.""The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't.""It takes technical support too long to resolve an issue.""They should improve their user interface.""An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement.""SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."

More SonicWall Capture Client Cons →

"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive.""It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it.""I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot.""The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection.""Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine.""I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously.""It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer.""The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."

    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.
