Great features, good patch management, and useful ransomware protection
I also have experience with Sophos and Kaspersky. The main difference is that some features are not available in Kaspersky. And, for example, the patch management part is not included in Sophos. On the Kaspersky side, they have a patch management part. However, we need to purchase an additional option to enable that feature. With Comodo Protection, patch management is already included with the product, and we don't need to buy it separately. Also, the main advantage is performance. When we implemented Sophos on the endpoint, the CPU utilization went higher. When we installed Comodo, the memory of the CPU utilization is very low. We can implement Comodo from XP and SP3 to the latest operating system. However, with Kaspersky or Sophos, they are not supported for that or Windows 10. Comodo is supporting Windows XP SP3 and all our operating systems. That said, the Sophos Intercept X Advanced option has a web filtering part, or integration. Comodo has only basic filtering, and web filtering is there. That means we can do the URL web addresses and block and allow the connection and that's it with Comodo. Comodo does have a separate product for that, Comodo Secure Internet, where we can configure and filter all the web filtering parts. That would be an extra solution at an extra cost.

Easy to set up with good security and rapidly improving capabilities
In terms of stability, the performance parameters do come into play. It's good on the regular office front, however, on the development side, if somebody is using it in a development environment, they need to make some configuration changes in terms of what directories should be excluded from the real-time scanning. I had to do that kind of stuff. I don't do that with the Microsoft product, for example. It runs, and it scans the entire system with no issues. The solution is stable. Regular updates were available in the product versions. They were updated, and they gave regular signature updates also so that the product checked all the boxes.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product’s valuable feature is the remote control station."
"They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice. They also have Windows patching and third-party patching. It was easy to use for protection. The containment engine was pretty nice for securing our environment."
"If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well."
"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."
"It's stable and reliable."
"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."
"Containment is the best feature of the solution."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"It can block certain web pages that may contain viruses or pose a threat to the computer."
"Technical support has been very good. They are helpful and responsive."
"I have found ESET Endpoint Antivirus is light on system resources compared with other antivirus solutions that tend to be very heavy on the computers system resources. Additionally, the solution is very secure."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the management."
"The product does not slow down the machine."
"It rarely gets in the way, and we don't even notice it scanning."
"The most valuable feature in ESET Endpoint Security is the game mode to restrict notifications."
"It's a very user-friendly product."
 

Cons

"Would be good to have a better understanding of what it is that you've got in quarantine."
"The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions."
"The solution's online documentation needs to be fine-tuned. It is not up to which solution currently has. There is some inconsistency in the knowledge present. I would like to see MDM in the solution's future releases."
"There could be MDRM features added to the product."
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords."
"The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply."
"It would be great to have VIP functions added to the solution in a future release."
"There are other features you can add on to help make the security stronger, however, they should offer better security even on a basic level."
"It would be nice to have more features in vulnerability scanning, which I believe will happen eventually."
"It's hard to get support for ESET in Hong Kong and China. There's a number to call that goes nowhere. You can upgrade to the premium service, but there are a few restrictions."
"We'd like the solution to be a next generation antivirus with some sort of artificial intelligence or machine learning angle."
"The user interface of ESET Endpoint Security could be more user-friendly and more features could be added."
"iOS compatibility for mobile security and parental control."
"The product’s AI implementation feature could be better for learning user behavior."

"It probably is less expensive than Sophos."
"The price of the solution is very good compared to other solutions."
