We performed a comparison between Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and Fortinet FortiClient based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
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."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"
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"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."
"Having all monitoring, response, tracking, and mitigation tools in one dashboard provides our analysts and SOC team with a comprehensive view at a glance."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"They do a very good job of providing multi-stage visualizations of malicious operations that immediately show all attack details across all devices and users. Since it is MalOp-centric model, you can see if there has been a similar operation across multiple machines. If it is the same thing appearing on multiple machines, you see all the machines and users affected in one screen."
"The initial setup is not overly complicated."
"Their EDR solution, the ability to mitigate issues through their command line, is probably the best feature that we've had. We use that all the time. It's very useful for doing investigations."
"Cybereason absolutely enables us to mitigate and isolate on the fly. Our managed detection response telemetry has dropped dramatically since we began using it. It's very top-of-mind. We were running some tabletop exercises and none of the detections were getting triggered by the managed security services provider. So we needed to find a solution that would trigger high-fidelity alerts. That was Cybereason and it dramatically changed our landscape from the detection and response perspective."
"The solution is efficient."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"It is very easy and useful. A normal user with basic information can easily connect to any environment."
"We like its centralized administration, integration with Active Directory, deployment, and stability of the connection."
"It's easy to use, easy to deploy, and I have more visibility over my network that shows which users are connected to the firewalls, which users are connected to the network, and what they're accessing."
"From Forticlient, the EMS, the central management is easy to use."
"FortiClient has good signatures, good protection and, up until recently, it integrated really well with our firewall."
"Remote connectivity is its most valuable feature."
"FortiClient's most valuable features are that it's easy to install and connect and has OTP on email IDs and two-factor authentication."
"The integration capabilities are good."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not user-friendly."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"Compared to our previous endpoint, we have a lot more false positives and a lot more duplication of alerts. So we're chasing more alerts."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"It initially took some time to deploy."
"The product's reporting isn't great."
"It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity."
"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group."
"The network coverage becomes an issue most of the time."
"The price could also use improvement."
"For buying or deploying it with additional features, apart from VPN client, web security, or antivirus, I would like to see the USB key blocking function included in this solution for endpoint security. For endpoint security, you need antivirus and all of the features included in antivirus software these days, web security, and USB key locking feature. If it is implemented in a way that in one package, you have all the primary features needed for security these days, it would be nice. All of those features will probably be additionally charged as it is a web security feature on FortiClient."
"Fortinet FortiClient could improve the compatibility with mobile applications that are allowed and sometimes they do not respond. However, Microsoft Windows applications are very good."
"We'd like to be able to properly encrypt the data more effectively."
"Fortinet needs to cover more areas where threats can come from."
"There is lagging in some of the authentication tools to support the newer versions, this is happening because they are not supported."
"More integration would be beneficial."
"One area for improvement in FortiClient is the speed of connectivity."
