We performed a comparison between Check Point Harmony Endpoint and Panda Adaptive Defense 360 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."Impressive detection capabilities"
"The setup is pretty simple."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"The stability is very good."
"I get alerts when scripts are detected in the environment."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"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 platform's most valuable features are the ability to build API, which meets our business requirements, and the VPN client, which provides VPN access from a single client."
"It's pretty complete for preventing threats to endpoints. Its capabilities are great."
"It is very powerful tooling that can be tuned a lot."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"Resource overheads have been reduced and we are overall more secure as a business."
"Its most valuable feature is being able to integrate cloud services and centralize the protection policy from a single administration dashboard."
"The product is stable."
"The main advantage of the solution is the ability to implement complete security policies for the terminals in order to address how apps are installed on corporate devices."
"The patch management module is very important."
"Great technical support staff."
"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."
"The interface is great."
"The most valuable features of Panda Security Adaptive Defense are the useful hardware information it provides, light on resources, controllable from the console, remote scan functionality, and the blocking of a lot of URL malware."
"Adaptive Defense is pretty easy to use, and Panda support is excellent."
"The product so far has been good at protecting us. We haven't faced a breach."
"It is easy to manage."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"The only minor concern is occasional interference with desired programs."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"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."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"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."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"The application control and URL filtering features are not very strong."
"They could improve memory consumption."
"It's not easy to investigate an incident that you find in the company. Users often face trouble when downloading files, so it is very slow in terms of how it works."
"The Infinity Portal login is "iffy" at times."
"Legacy VPNs and digital footprints should be minimized."
"They should provide bandwidth regulation, so we can monitor and regulate bandwidth."
"Some of the less tech-savvy users sometimes find it difficult in adjusting and learning how to use the platform."
"They need to focus on more scalability (as much as possible) so that the solution can run across all supported OS."
"They could have more reports."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense can improve by including the intrusion and prevention system not only on their most expensive platform. Additionally, it blocks software that is legitimate from users. They complain and then we have to manually unblock the software, by hash, or we receive a message. Some of the prevention features are not available and this might cause us to need a separate firewall or something to protect the company."
"Occasionally, we suffer from little bugs that give us the wrong message."
"The implementation was difficult."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
"Improvements could be made in terms of how the reporting is structured."
