Easy to setup and stable solution
It's a good product for us. The reports and notifications are very good for us.  There is room for improvement in pricing.  In future releases, I would like to see improvements in EDR protection.  So, the only thing that I would like to see in the future is EDR protection and a lower price for…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution offers a lot of configuration capabilities."
"The product enabled Zero-Day Protection for our environment. We never encountered any issues regarding threats."
"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."
"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."
"ESET PROTECT Enterprise is reliable."
"The solution provides EDR. You can customize how you prepare the endpoint for clients and the dashboard alerts."

More ESET PROTECT Enterprise pros
"It's a good product for us. The reports and notifications are very good for us."
 

Cons

"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."
"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."
"Sometimes, the connection to the machine requires troubleshooting."
"In terms of management accounts, there's a lot of manuals that seem to be mixed up. Sometimes, it's a little bit confusing."
"The availability and sustainability could also be improved."
"I would like to see more features on the reporting side of things."
"The tool is complex and expensive."
"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."
More ESET PROTECT Enterprise cons
"I would like to see in the future is EDR protection and a lower price for F-Secure Total."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is cost-effective compared to one of its competitors."
"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."
"We can easily scale and improve security, but the cost is high for us."
