Stable but bad technical support, and an out of date database
We primarily use the solution to protect our business The solution protects us so that we have regular security from attacks. It prevents disasters from happening on our system. The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature. The database needs improvement. It needs to be…

Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time. The deployment was really straightforward and useful and I am impressed by the anti-virus endpoint detection and response offered by this solution."
"The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."
"The solution has exchange protection. It has a content control, device control, a firewall, and anti-malware as well. They are all quite valuable features for us."
"​Centralized dashboard online which can be used for managing a huge product."
"The solution is stable."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue.​"
"The solution’s AI is its most valuable feature."
"CylancePROTECT works on AI technology, is always up to date, and uses very few resources on your devices."
 

Cons

"There are blurred lines between anti-virus and endpoint detection so I would say it can be confusing when you are considering buying this program. I would like to see that being explained better to the customer."
"There needs to be better integration with the environment. Especially, for the active directory and also for keeping up with the changes from Microsoft. We use a lot of Microsoft OS. I have noted that sometimes they lag behind Microsoft updates. For example, when with Windows 10. I had some issues with deploying to Windows 10 because the solution was behind in updating their own services to match the Microsoft release."
"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"It is hard to manage."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"​Work on the math model. We are catching a lot of false positives, which gets to be a pain at the start of a deployment."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"While you are working, you are finding these things that were supposed to be waived have come back to being blocked. That's frustrating."
"Additionally, their channel management has been lacking, with a notable disregard for small and medium-sized businesses, focusing primarily on large enterprises and very large MSPs."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There's a yearly cost for licensing. For us, that comes to $1,400. There are no additional costs beyond the license itself."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"CylancePROTECT is worth the money, but I'm not sure of its exact price. I can't remember off the top of my head."
"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"I think that the price we are paying is good for what it is."
"CylancePROTECT's pricing is reasonable, at about €18 per user, per year."
"CylancePROTECT is an affordable solution."
"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
