Fortinet Named a Gartner Peer Insights™ Customers' Choice for Endpoint Protection Platforms for the Second Year in a Row

We're excited to share that Fortinet has been named a Gartner Peer Insights Customers' Choice for the second year in a row for Endpoint Protection Platforms. We believe this distinction reflects the trust and satisfaction our customers have in Fortinet, which currently has a rating of 4.8 out of 5 stars and a 96% recommendation rate from users based on 163 reviews submitted as of July 3 2024. We believe this recognition underscores our commitment to delivering top-tier security solutions that simplify management and enhance threat protection.

While meeting with vendors and scheduling demos are undoubtedly critical parts of any technology procurement process, some of the most useful insights come from organizations that already use the product you're considering. Below are several reviews from cybersecurity professionals worldwide who already rely on FortiEDR to protect their businesses that we feel relate to the value of our endpoint security strategy.

This lightweight capability is one of the many benefits of our kernel-based design, which takes up less than 1-2% of system resources. This design also makes it easy for FortiEDR to interoperate with other software and helps our engineering team provide feature parity with both legacy and modern operating systems. As a result, FortiEDR offers constant endpoint protection even when network connectivity is limited or non-existent. Another customer wrote the following:

"The Great EDR Solution For Continued Protection Even [When] Endpoint Is Offline."
"Great part about FortiEDR - It provides offline protection even when the endpoint is disconnected. Another good part about FortiEDR - its lightweight EDR agent, which consumes extremely less resources on Endpoint."

Another customer said:

"A Great Peace of Mind to Deep Dive Into Threat Investigation With FortiEDR"

Our FortiEDR engineering team is continually innovating to enhance daily operations for the security teams that use the product. For example, we introduced a variety of new features this year, such as an innovative XDR (extended detection and response) graph to make it easier to understand why FortiEDR flagged something as malicious to speed up investigations and an enhanced Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) engine to give more granular control to various roles in organizations, especially to those in multi-tenant environments.

Gain Advanced Features and Greater Efficiency

According to our customers, FortiEDR's advanced capabilities are pivotal in reducing mean time to respond (MTTR) to incidents-a hallmark of our mission. A user shared the following review:

"Advancing Endpoint Protection: The Wonders of FortiEDR"

The platform's integration with Active Directory for user management and its support for third-party threat-hunting queries using STIX and TAXII protocols further bolster its advanced threat detection abilities.
