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.

Provides a secure and hassle-free environment
One area where Norton 360 could improve is the constant push for upselling. The notifications urging me to buy additional services, like dark web monitoring or a secure browser, can be overwhelming. It feels like they are trying to sell me more than I actually need. I would prefer a more straightforward approach where essential features are included in the base license without constant prompts to purchase extras. While notifications about actions taken for my security are good, they could be more informative, letting me know exactly what they did to protect me without the upsell pitches. Simplifying the user experience and providing clearer information about the actions taken would make Norton 360 more user-friendly for me.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is efficient."
"What I like most about Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response is the support because the support is good. The solution is also easy to use, and it has a dashboard. Everything is good, and there's no problem with it."
"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."
"For me, the technical support is good."
"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform. It is very straightforward."
"Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered."
"The initial setup is not overly complicated."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it offers alerts if I get a spam email."
"The solution detects viruses very, very fast."
"The product’s valuable feature is the availability of support services 24/7."
"It offers diverse features, such as antivirus protection, firewall, identity protection, secure VPN, device backup, password management, parental controls, and performance optimization."
"The most valuable feature of Norton 360 has been its robust notification system."
"Norton 360 offers the best defense compared to other low-priced antivirus solutions. Its most valuable feature is storage and automatic backup. You can restore materials from the tool's cloud backup. It is encrypted with authentication."
"The solution has good performance."
"It efficiently scans for threats without causing disruptions, unlike some other antivirus software."
 

Cons

"What needs to improve in Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and what I'd like to see in its next release is a centralized dashboard that allows you to view what is there, similar to what's on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager: a beautiful display and reporting. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response has to start with the compliance, the homepage, etc. Everything should be there and should be customizable. The options should be there. The tool is very good currently, but visibility for IT administrators is lacking and needs to be worked on."
"There is room for improvement in the product features related to device control, particularly USB management."
"The reporting feature needs improvement."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"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."
"Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on."
"The deployment on individual endpoints is more geared toward larger organizations. It might prove to be a bit too complicated for a smaller organization. You need to know what you're doing when you're deploying the sensor."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"The tool should be easily available in the market and should be cheaper."
"I would like to see Norton 360 improve the speed of its cloud backup."
"The product should be improved with more storage. Though included in its price, the tool's auto VPN doesn't work at times."
"There's a need for enhanced security measures."
"The updates must be less frequent."
"One area where Norton 360 could improve is the constant push for upselling."
"The integration with Android devices needs enhancement."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"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."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"The tool has a yearly licensing."
"On a scale of one to ten, if ten is the most expensive and one is the cheapest, I rate the price as nine."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The solution is cost-effective."
"During procurement, we discovered that acquiring licenses in packages or bundles, such as the one for 20 users, was more cost-effective than individual licenses."
"The price is fairly acceptable."
