"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."

"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"It has improved our performance and deployment."

"We used to have a lot of phishing attacks and all these kind of things for end-users so we decided that we needed endpoint security.

"The tool's interface is good."

"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"
"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."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"An additional feature I would like to see involves the VPN."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's agent is a bit heavy."
"We need a higher maximum file size in the sandboxing feature."
"The application control and URL filtering features are not very strong."
"We know that Check Point has a very good database about threats even Check Point tries to make this EDR stable still there are some issues we were facing after upgrading or taking TAC to help its got resolved but Check Point really needs to work on metadata."
"The solution can be made lightweight in order to keep the systems more effective during the background operations of the scanning and security checks."
"The solution has limitations if it's hosted on-prem or as a SaaS."
"A couple of times, we experienced some sales issues."
"The solution could be a lot lighter. You really feel it when the laptop starts."
"I think it would be good for them to consider and cloud integration capabilities."
"Kaspersky and most other security products have a lot of modules. They recently added several new ones. You find yourself buying and deploying so many things. There are some modules that everyone uses, like, for example, the orchestration module. Instead of selling them separately, it would be better to have bundles or an all-in-one license."
"The GUI of the product is too basic, making it an area where improvements are required."
"Utilizing the CPU usages during the scan process needs to be improved."
"The product needs to incorporate training programs or webinars for users. The solution needs to improve its support as well. It also needs to detect ransomware."
"I find it to be slow on my end and would like to see that improve. I think the e-learning portal can be updated because it's been disabled due to an upgrade. The data could be updated as well. I also think that pricing could be improved."
"The licensing fees could be reduced."
