"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."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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 console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"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 solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"Cynet is light and transparent when downloaded. The product's data aggregation is also valuable since you can see everything you need on a page."
"In terms of incident response, Cynet can contain attacks, offer a trial period to customers, and uninstall if not continued. The most valuable aspect is its integration capabilities, covering endpoints and network data for a comprehensive view of threats."
"The visibility it gives is excellent."
"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"It can be deployed in autonomous mode, and then it automatically blocks malware threats."
"A good feature is how the solution packages varied information into a single dashboard that's readable and meets our needs."
"It's transparent, so it's not something where every user has to press a button to download or do the thing. It is centralized, in fact. Personally, I use Malwarebytes and other tools, which are fine for home use. Cynet is also relatively silent in terms of operation, except when it's required to act."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"The initial setup is not complex at all. It's very straightforward."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The support needs improvement."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"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."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"There could be more customization options and detailed information provided in the reports."
"I think the technical support could be better."
"I would like to see support for mobile protection and some additional reports included."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"In terms of what could be improved, I would say the usability of this product for new threats. Meaning, not everything which is new is properly seen by the product and not all the required actions are taken."
"An administration feature will be useful for Cynet."
"SIEM - Although with their Centralised Log Management Cynet has created the basis for SIEM functionality, this is to be expanded in the near future."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"Webroot is very reactionary. It waits until the threat is active within memory to try and detect it. They need better pre-execution detection and prevention."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"The console spins up relatively slowly, and some of the configuration items are obscure (e.g., reporting back one time per day is a default setting) and need to be tweaked."
"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."
