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.

Rick Cassel - PeerSpot reviewer
Lightweight and not hard to set up however, does not offer good reporting
We've had a couple of events both this year and last year where it just didn't seem to catch ransomware, which is impossible to do if someone has hands-on with the system. There were some things that they had or used to have or don't have that I still haven't figured out called journaling. And it was supposed to be a way to roll back changes that were made. However, they're telling me they don't have that. That's not in the system. It’s my understanding that it doesn’t actually scan any files at all. They just look at their database of files they've scanned previously, and either it matches or doesn't. That might be where the shortcoming is, is that it just can't stay up-to-date fast enough to stop new things that are coming in. It's an after-the-fact anti-virus. It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it. There is one thing that is deplorable with the product that I would change as soon as I found a better one. However, the reports are worthless. You go and look at a scan report and cannot get a log of machines. I can log into a console and see the files were scanned every day at 2:00 AM, and they all passed green or something was detected and removed. However, you have to go to the console. I don't have anything that I can send to my client on reports. What they give you is a bunch of bar graphs with no details. You can't drill down. It'll say two infections. However, it doesn't tell you what machines. You've just really got several different reports, and they're all just a bunch of graphs and wasted paper. There's nothing really substantial. The reports that I can use for client-facing, once a month, to say, "Here, we scanned all these workstations. Here are our results," don’t exist. They've got fake reports. I've screamed about that for years, and they just won't do anything. Therefore, I created my own little up-to-date or not ask fail-type report. I send that to them in place of a report directly from a product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."
"The product’s valuable feature is the remote control station."
"Overall, I would rate Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection a nine out of ten."
"The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the management of end-user machines."
"Auto Containment is a valuable feature."
"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."
More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection pros
"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."
"The initial setup is not complex at all. It's very straightforward."
"Auto-Remediation"
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."

Cons

"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords."
"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."
"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."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
"The menu could be cleaned up."
More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection cons
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."
"Their customer support should be better. We started having some issues with it, and we didn't get the required support."
"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
More Webroot Business Endpoint Protection cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is pricey."
"The price of this product should be lower."
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The product can be considered fairly cheap."
More Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection pricing and cost advice
"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"Work on a price tier plan."
