The pricing for FortiEDR is pretty high. It's not affordable for small companies. I'd rat the affordability three out of ten in terms of affordability, with ten being affordable.
Fortinet FortiEDR is priced pretty competitively if you compare it to other companies that are in the same boat, like Palo Alto, who have similar product suites. It is reasonable. In the industry, they call Fortinet the Chevy of Perimeter Security and Palo Alto the Cadillac. I think that's undeserved. I think Fortinet is actually, in the long run, a better product, but it has that reputation because of their pricing. Palo Alto, right off the bat, charged a much higher premium, which created the illusion that you're getting a better product. Palo Alto products are brutally expensive. But that's the way Palo Alto works and it works for them. Although, I've heard rumors that they're changing their channel model where they're going after enterprise customers directly, rather than forcing it through the channel. Fortinet is a 100% channel, Palo Alto is not. And that's affecting them. If you look at stock prices and earnings, Fortinet is actually doing better.
EDR, also referred to as Endpoint Detection and Response, is a security solution that works by using continuous real-time monitoring and collecting endpoint data that could indicate a threat.
It is expensive and I would rate it an eight out of ten.
