Zubair Ahmad - PeerSpot reviewer
Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…
Rodrigo Censi - PeerSpot reviewer

We work with Kaspersky and two modalities: the Censi final and Censi license. Most of our clients work in financial areas and industry. Our regular enterprise business relies on these solutions Kaspersky is viable with ADR; the Endpoint Detection response feature and the BitLocker management…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"I would recommend Cynet to others."
"We are protecting all our workstations."
"It is a very stable solution...It is a very scalable solution...The initial setup of Cynet was easy."
"The SOAR function, deception, and forensics are very useful."
"The interface is exceptionally clear and easy to understand."
"The most valuable aspect of this solution is that it is a complete solution, which makes cyber security very free and almost perfect. There is no such thing as perfect cyber security, but as far as it can go, sign it comes close to being perfect and holistic. Cynet is always comprehensive from the perspective of functionality, as well as from the standpoint that it encompasses not only technology but also processes and people. The triad of people, processes, and technology is crucial and should always be in place. To my knowledge, no other product or platform combines all three components into one, but Cynet does."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"The solution's most valuable features are that it offers very strong encryption and acts as an antivirus product."
"We can scale the solution."
"It helps improve security in our organization."
"Encryption is the most valuable feature. It creates an encryption tunnel from your location to the delivery address."
"The integration with our hypervisor is quite smooth, especially within the Kaspersky Enterprise environment. We have many virtual machines, and the integration is helpful."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The content filtering options are good."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
 

Cons

"The reporting is a little weak and could be improved. The other downside is that Cynet does not use the local time zone. It's based off of Greenwich Mean Time."
"Automation could be improved, and orchestration could be added to the features."
"There are some shortcomings in Cynet's integration capabilities that need improvement."
"It is an endpoint agent, but they don't have a probe for checking the network traffic. They could improve from this point of view."
"One thing to note is that I highly recommend adding a deep learning-based prevention environment as an additional layer to Cynet. However, I always advise my customers to start with Cynet or XDR, for example, and then focus on the people, technology, and processes involved. This is the best approach to ensure that you are not breached with ransomware. While Cynet can prevent most attacks, there have been cases where ransomware has been quicker than Cynet's detection capabilities. In these situations, an additional tool is necessary to ensure complete protection, and that is what I sell as well."
"There could be more customization options and detailed information provided in the reports."
"Cynet fails to deploy the same technology in mobile devices."
"Management of the console could be simplified and made more user-friendly because right now it's not very easy to use."
"If it covered more products, it would improve the XDR."
"The issue with Kaspersky EDR is the sandbox. I'd like to have the ability to manage it on the cloud as well."
"I would like better integration with other products."
"The Kaspersky console could be easier to navigate and generate reports from."
"There are some issues with EDR's web policy blocking sites that are marked as exceptions."
"The installation process could be more streamlined."
"The system can be heavy, slowing down performance."
"I am not happy with Kaspersky's support since basic support is very cool unless you pay for some advanced support, in which you get better responses and feedback from Kaspersky's team."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It costs 18,000 per year, but we have the whole package with not only Cynet but also the Perception Point for emails. There are also some small security courses for our users."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"Pricing wise, Cynet seems to be very competitive. The cost is probably lower than that offered by many of its competitors for all the functions and features it offers."
"It gives you a high level of protection at a very good price."
"Cynet is cheap."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"There is an extra cost if you want the support of Cynet."
"Kaspersky is licensed on a yearly basis."
"The price of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is in the middle range compared to competitors. The pricing model is based on the users using the solutions. The cost for us is approximately 2200 Algerian dinars. The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The product has a valuable pricing model. We need to purchase its monthly subscription."
"If one is cheap, ten is expensive, I rate the product’s price as a seven out of ten, especially if I compare it with CrowdStrike."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The solution’s pricing is okay."
"There is an annual license to use Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response. The price overall is a bit expensive when compared to other solutions. There are not any additional fees other than the license."
"Kaspersky's pricing is very competitive when it comes to comparison with the other solutions."
