Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP)."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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 most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"ESET Endpoint Security is stable, I did not have any issues with it."
"Primarily used to protect computers from viruses and ransomware."
"I have found the ESET Management Console very good. It gives me many features, such as managing users and installing a new version."
"The overall security capability of the product is pretty reliable."
"I like the integration; it lets you see the product installed on a particular computer."
"There are some great features in ESET Endpoint Antivirus when you are browsing on the internet. For example, they have a notification if within your LAN network something is suspected to be a threat. Additionally, the malware features are very good."
"Easy to use security solution, helps to secure connected devices against viruses in the digital world."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and maintain while also being fully encrypted."

"The solution is not user-friendly."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."

"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"FortiEDR could add a separate scanning dashboard. In incident management, we prefer to remove the endpoint system from the environment and scan the system. We typically use Symantec for that, but if we want to use FortiEDR for that, then we need a scanning tab to clarify things."
"The initial setup of ESET Endpoint Security can be complicated when you get involved with encryption."
"It's not scalable in that you cannot use a license for multiple devices."
"The solution includes only Intrusion Detection and not IPS, which is an important feature that is missing in my version."
"We are looking to move towards an EDR solution rather than EPP. EDR is a solution that can dynamically detect threats based on the process behavior. It would be better if this solution was an EDR and an EPP solution, this would increase security protection."
"iOS compatibility for mobile security and parental control."
"ESET's updates are mostly manual. That's my biggest concern. I'd like it to be more automatic. I've had to download the new version and run it manually to install it. I've got several workstations like that right now."
"The product’s AI implementation feature could be better for learning user behavior."
"The tool needs to explore security possibilities to secure iOS and Mac devices."
"The product is available at a very high price, making it an area where improvements are required."
