We performed a comparison between Elastic Security and Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."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"
"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 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."
"Exceptions are easy to create and the interface is easy to follow with a nice appearance."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"This is stable and scalable."
"The most valuable feature is the search function, which allows me to go directly to the target to see the specific line a customer is searching for."
"ELK documentation is very good, so never needed to contact technical support."
"The most valuable feature is the speed, as it responds in a very short time."
"The performance is good and it is faster than IBM QRadar."
"The most valuable feature of Elastic Security is that you can install agents, and they are not separately licensed."
"The scalability is good. It can be scaled easily in the production environment."
"The product has huge integration varieties available."
"The most valuable feature for me is Discover."
"The advice I would give someone implementing this solution is that the management of the solution is very easy. You don't need a lot of people to manage the solution."
"I think that all the features are valuable for our environment."
"The initial setup is very simple."
"The implementation and integration are easy."
"We have had no troubles installing, maintaining, or deploying the product for our clients."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very powerful tool for us. We use a lot of third-party software that integrates well with the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the management center."
"The malware threat detection has been excellent overall."
"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 security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The support needs 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."
"Better integration with third-party APMs would be really good."
"The tool needs to integrate with legacy servers. Big companies can have legacy servers that may not always be updated."
"One thing they could add is a quick step to enable users who don't have a solid background to build a dashboard and quickly search, without difficulty."
"It is difficult to anticipate and understand the space utilization, so more clarity there would be great."
"This solution cannot do predictive maintenance, so we have to build our own modules for doing it."
"There are connectors to gather logs for Windows PCs and Linux PCs, but if we have to get the logs from Syslog then we have to do it manually, and this should be automated."
"Elastic Security can be a bit difficult to use if a person only has experience in SMBs with tools like Zoho. The product can also be difficult for those who have never dealt with query language."
"The training that is offered for Elastic is in need of improvement because there is no depth to it."
"The licensing fees could be reduced."
"I would like to see machine learning and AI as added features."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business doesn't have a built-in DLP (data loss prevention) solution."
"The process for upgrades is very slow."
"I would like to have more forensic features. For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
"The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue."
"I'd like Kaspersky to be more stable and secure."
"Utilizing the CPU usages during the scan process needs to be improved."
