"ESET Endpoint Security lacks some advanced functionalities and features which would be useful to be interconnected with the solutions we use, such as Microsoft 365."
"The initial setup of ESET Endpoint Security was not complex because we have five years of experience. However, it is not as easy if we did not have the experience."
"The solution lacks the automation I need."
"The solution should offer more security surrounding blacklisted websites."
"The process of uninstalling and reinstalling older agent updates needs improvement."
"It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult."
"In terms of improvement, I would like to see better alerting to let us know if there is anything wrong with SentinelOne working on the endpoint of the computer."
"The SentinelOne portal is not user-friendly, which is one of its drawbacks."
"I would like to see the reports from SentinelOne more customizable, as there are very few options."
"Maybe they can develop some firewall aspects for it to better protect us."
"The product must provide the ability to update applications from the SentinelOne Management Console."
"If they can extend their product further on the DLP side of it so that I don't have to have another agent run exclusively for DLP production, that would be ideal."
