Find out in this report how the two Network Access Control (NAC) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable features of the solution are the user-friendliness, the graphical interface, and the technical support. The interface is very nice and the customization is good."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is having visibility over the IoT devices on the network."
"The solution is good at giving a deep dive into each product. It tells you, for example, what is connected to the network. It gives us good reporting tools."
"The interface is good and simple to use."
"I like FortiNAC's integration with other Fortinet devices. They work together well, but the solution also works with other network devices."
"There are some features that are working well."
"The network segmentation is the most important part of the solution. The integration with the Zero Trust Access solution is a crucial part of segmenting your network."
"The FortiNAC features I found the most valuable are security and the ability to consolidate wireless networks."
"The biggest improvement has been knowing that something unauthorized isn't going to get installed on anyone’s machines."
"The interface is clean and well-organized, making it simple to navigate and find what we need."
"Using ThreatLocker is effortless because I can access it from an app on my phone, so I can help clients after hours. My client had an issue while I was at dinner, and I didn't have a tech on the problem, but I could deal with it from my phone. I can see what the client is doing and approve or deny it. It helps me deliver better service to my clients when they need it."
"We use ThreatLocker's Allowlisting to whitelist specific applications and prevent unauthorized software from running."
"The most valuable feature is selective elevation, which allows elevating an individual process to admin privilege without granting admin privilege to that user, which has been by far the most useful feature outside of the overall solution itself."
"The most valuable feature is probably the ability to block programs from running. ThreatLocker has some built-in features that make it super easy. You can also contact their support within the program. If you're having issues, you can click on that button and connect with someone in five to 10 seconds."
"The sandbox functionality is fantastic."
"ThreatLocker Allowlisting has all of these features integrated into one console, making it effective."
"Its technical support needs improvement."
"There could be better integration with legacy equipment. It integrates perfectly with all Fortinet solutions, but if you look at other third-party integrations—not on the networking part; but more on the security infrastructure part—it's more limited."
"I hope that Fortinet can add a feature with a remediation mechanism when you find a broken piece so that you can click on something and download the needed update or resolve the firewall issue more easily. Currently, we have to use an external remediation server to download updates."
"The dashboard needs to improve."
"Fortinet FortiNAC's device compatibility could be improved, particularly for VoIP devices."
"The GUI is a little bit strange — different than other Fortinet products."
"The solution's licensing price should be improved."
"Classifications and visibility need to be improved a lot. They have to start work on being agentless. Agentless means they need to have strong integration with Windows."
"From a reporting perspective, enhancing the ability to customize reports would be beneficial."
"The reporting could be improved."
"ThreatLocker Allowlisting needs to improve its user interface and overall workflow."
"We identified several areas that we would like to see improved."
"The snapshots used in the ThreatLocker University portal are outdated snippets and have not been updated in conjunction with the portal itself."
"Adding applications to the allowlist can sometimes feel overwhelming."
"There are some times when applications get submitted, the hashes don't really line up."
"More visibility in the built-ins would be nice."
