We performed a comparison between Fortinet FortiClient and Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) 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."It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"Impressive detection capabilities"
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"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."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"FortiClient has good signatures, good protection and, up until recently, it integrated really well with our firewall."
"It is very simple to use. I've used some of the others in the past, such as Cisco AnyConnect, which was a nightmare. I've used a couple of others, but FortiClient is very simple to use."
"The service is centralized."
"The most valuable features are malware detection, integrates well with other solutions, and ease of use for all users."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its integration capabilities. The processing is fast and the reporting is also very good."
"It seems to be more scalable than we thought."
"The solution's TNA feature blocks devices from entering the network that do not meet compliance protocols."
"The VPN has proven to be quite useful."
"The seamless deployment is very valuable."
"The most valuable network security feature is the network sandbox solution. This sandbox feature works on traffic flow."
"The independent modules are very good."
"The tool has contributed to improving our security posture. While it's just one part of our overall solution, it plays a crucial role. As we continue to evolve, we anticipate it becoming even more important alongside other aspects like network behavior and additional metrics."
"It has a feature called Isolation. If a device is compromised, we can connect it to our SOC, and no one would be able to access it. This way we can limit the damage to the network while we are investigating."
"I have not received any complaints about the performance."
"It's a stable solution with good performance."
"FireEye Endpoint Security is easy to use and lightweight compared to others."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"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."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"The solution could improve by providing analytics or detailed reports."
"The solution should have faster turnaround when it comes to new technology."
"While we like patch management, it would be nice if it could handle patch management for other solutions, like Microsoft."
"Working with Distribution sometimes comes at a cost due to a lack of knowledge of the current status of your licensing and products."
"Fortinet FortiClient could improve the connection because sometimes it drops."
"The solution could add data to the endpoint."
"FortiClient is not communicating with the new version of the firewall."
"With the lower-end licenses, it tends to kick you out after eight hours. There is a function where it automatically kicks you out after eight hours. They could improve that and not kick you out after eight hours. Other than that, it is already pretty good."
"The reports need more development. They need more details on the reports and more details taking the executive view into consideration."
"Performance is a problematic area in the solution needing improvement."
"Impacts performance of the servers quite negatively."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. The price should be improved, it's high."
"The way that signatures work when using this solution could be improved. They could be more user friendly. We would like the ability to select a client's signature from a menu or file share to save time."
"The integration and display of the dashboards have to be done better."
"A policy-editing console should be added."
"The product could be flexible and offer better pricing."
