Featured Reviews

Mohammad Qaw - PeerSpot reviewer
Perfect correlation and XDR capabilities for network traffic plus endpoint security
The solution should force customers to integrate with network traffic to see the full benefits of XDR. If you are not integrating it or feeding in your network traffic, then you are just buying a normal antivirus which doesn't make any sense. You are paying double the price to use the antivirus feature or to say you have XDR, but in reality you are not using it. The solution should include an on-premises option because some customers want only on-premises. It would be hard, but good to do if possible. Open XDR would be beneficial in the future. Right now, the solution is Closed XDR so cannot communicate with the few new vendors in the Open XDR market.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've had a significant increase in blocking with a decrease in false positives, because it's looking at how the files work, not just a list of files that it's been told to look for."
"The management capabilities, allow an IT organization to get quite a good picture of attempted cyber attacks."
"The tool is designed to scale for large enterprises and handle large volumes of data."
"The stability of the solution is very good. We have about 100 users on it right now, and we use it twice a week."
"Cortex XDR features advanced threat detection capabilities."
"If any application performs suspicious activities, such as changing registries or modifying other applications, Cortex XDR detects and blocks the entire application."
"Has great threat detection capabilities."
"I've found the solution to be highly scalable for enterprises."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The solution is stable."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The convenience has been great."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
 

Cons

"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"Whenever the tool releases a new version when deploying the product across the organization, I feel like there are some disturbances in the CPU usage after upgrading the tool to the latest version."
"Product might have some bugs."
"The solution should add unwanted malicious hash values to a block list so that whenever the action is triggered, it will automatically prevent the malicious content."
"I would like to see better protection, specifically to protect email applications."
"The setup is quite easy. We had appropriate support from the manager. One thing that was missing was the integration part."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"The solution should offer more dashboards and they should be better customized."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
