"The most valuable feature is the analysis, because of the beta structure."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."

"Impressive detection capabilities"
"Fortinet FortiEDR made our clients feel secure and more at ease, knowing that they had an EDR solution that would close the gap in their security posture."
"It is a very complete platform."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."

"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."

"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"

"The solution is not stable."
"Certain settings have limitations. For example, I cannot manually block some malware activities."

"The solution has to mature on container security and a lot of cloud environment security."
"Carbon Black has limited capability to integrate with Rapid7."
