We can make more informed decisions on whether an action is malicious
The ease of use and dashboards are improving. We came in at a time when they were developing a new dashboard screen. Therefore, we have had some confusing times between the old and new dashboards. Knowing how the new one works, I have seen vast improvements with it. While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper. They are improving on this because I have seen some improvements in the user interface that helps with this. Part of it was moving two different screens into one, merging the two together. It is very good, but it is very technically detailed and would be harder for an entry-level person to decipher. However, improvements are being made. It leverages indicators of behavior to help us remediate faster against attacks. Sometimes, I wish there was more detail on why they consider it malicious.

Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold."
"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform. It is very straightforward."
"For me, the technical support is good."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered."
"Cybereason's threat hunting and investigation are the most valuable features. Threat hunting is a user-friendly feature that keeps you safe. Investigation offers an added value that I haven't seen with other EDR services. It allows you to find specific policy problems within your environment."
"They do a very good job of providing multi-stage visualizations of malicious operations that immediately show all attack details across all devices and users. Since it is MalOp-centric model, you can see if there has been a similar operation across multiple machines. If it is the same thing appearing on multiple machines, you see all the machines and users affected in one screen."
"Antivirus, including anti-spam, trojan, and worm detection and prevention. Kaspersky has a comprehensive virus definition update which is very helpful for threat prevention."
"It has helped our company protect the confidential data of our customers."
"It integrates well across different operating systems, including mobile devices like Android and Mac. It effectively manages firewalls, particularly with Fortinet, enhancing overall security posture."
"The solution has been quite stable. The performance is good."
"The product is fairly technologically advanced and near the top of the market right now."
"I appreciate the good control it offers. So, I feel confident using this solution."
"Kaspersky protects our company from ransomware attacks. We have multiple sites across the country, including the principal headquarters and different towns. We can see any viruses that are in the network and take action."
"The price per endpoint is excellent."
 

Cons

"I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"It initially took some time to deploy."
"Compared to our previous endpoint, we have a lot more false positives and a lot more duplication of alerts. So we're chasing more alerts."
"Its Microsoft PowerShell protections still need some compatibility improvements. We have run across just a few. It is compatible with 90% of what we have in our network, but there is that 10% that we are still struggling with as far as compatibility with the type of PowerShell scripts needed to run our day-to-day business."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"I would like to see improvements on the operational side, specifically in grouping."
"The product's reporting isn't great."
"The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue."
"I would like to have more forensic features. For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
"The support must provide quick responses."
"I think it would be good for them to consider and cloud integration capabilities."
"The admin console must be a little bit easier."
"It's grown more expensive and customers are not happy about it."
"It slows down the system sometimes, and it has the occasional false positive where it deems something a virus when it isn't."
"I would like to see integration to many different systems easier."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"The pricing is manageable."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"The tool is expensive."
"We have an annual license and there is a fee per device used. The price is fair compared to the latest EDR solution."
"We purchase the product's yearly license. I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"The licensing is fine, and it is well within reasonable rates."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business' pricing is reasonable, and licensing costs are annual."
"The price of this solution is affordable and there is only a standard license required."
"The product is available at a low price."
"It is a cost-effective product."
