Ivan Burke - PeerSpot reviewer
With great technical support and reasonable scalability options, the tool efficiently detects unknown threats
My company does face some issues with the solution due to certain interoperability. I wouldn't say it is not a stable solution, but as soon as you have another software in the environment, the solution tends to have some issues. A lot of the issues faced in the solution can be fixed with the help of whitelisting and a couple of rules or settings on your own. We have to face the same set of problems with the solution for every instance, so if you have a new client, you have to do the enrollment and admin work again. For every new use case, the creation of a new instance is required. I rate the stability a six out of ten.

A reliable solution that offers enterprise protection
Our primary use case involves approximately 180 workstations, 180 laptops, and office protection in our environment ESET PROTECT Enterprise is reliable.  The tool is complex and expensive.  I have been using the product for 10 years.  The tool is stable.  The product is scalable. My company…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The tool's detection range works fine. Its most valuable features are its ease of employment and lightweightness. It's not heavy on resources. We focus on malware and ransomware detection."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its AI detection algorithm part, which helps and is Cybereason's way of detecting the unknown, not just the signature-based threats."
"ESET PROTECT Enterprise is reliable."
"It's helped us with restrictions and knowing which users we can provide permissions to and which users we need to restrict."
"The solution doesn't have high memory usage."
"The solution provides EDR. You can customize how you prepare the endpoint for clients and the dashboard alerts."
"We can easily manage resources, disable or enable clients and update them."
"The most valuable feature of ESET Protect is the security while accessing any transaction, such as online banking systems. When I access a banking website a new browser opens which is more secure, which I find very useful."
"The product enabled Zero-Day Protection for our environment. We never encountered any issues regarding threats."
"I like the dynamic groups feature. They give the ability to filter endpoint machines by any parameter, software, or hardware inventory, and that's a significant advantage when you need to, for example, automate a secondary firewall profile for endpoints outside your network. Or if you want to automatically isolate the computer from the rest of the network if the ransomware is found."
 

Cons

"Integrating other tools is sometimes an issue when using Cybereason Next-Generation Antivirus."
"Cybereason Next-Generation Antivirus is not available in the local language, which can be inconvenient."
"In the current version of ESET File Security, you cannot download a file, it always wants the real-time upload which you have to wait until the file is ready. This is annoying. In previous versions, you were able to use the downloaded engine."
"The tool is complex and expensive."
"I would like to see more in managing mobile devices in an on-premise solution. The latest news I've heard is that ESET drops mobile management module development for the on-prem version. It's moving to the cloud. Like in endpoint client protection, I would also like to see more of the vulnerability management features and additional app control functionality in ESET Protect."
"Its automation can be improved."
"In terms of management accounts, there's a lot of manuals that seem to be mixed up. Sometimes, it's a little bit confusing."
"ESET Protect could improve the performance. The performance of the home computers and laptops becomes slow due to their heavy software load. It would be a benefit to make a lighter version of the software which does not have any impact on the performance of the computer's hardware."
"The solution can be quite technical and therefore is challenging for new users."
"I would like to see more features on the reporting side of things."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a four out of ten. Its pricing is justified."
"I rate the solution's pricing a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"ESET PROTECT Enterprise is affordable."
"There is a license needed to use ESET Protect. The licensing cost is very low, it is approximately $10 per license."
"The product is cost-effective compared to one of its competitors."
