Featured Reviews

Chris Reece - PeerSpot reviewer
A security solution to manage devices with patching and remediation feature
The solution needs a complete overhaul or makeover. It gets stuck sometimes because they're focusing on the cloud UEM stuff rather than paying as much attention to that particular piece. The ease of use could be improved. It combines many different functionalities that you would need multiple servers like SCCM. If I wanted to train people, I’d move to a higher level from an Apache architect. There are five or six different products. So, training functional staff to use the product can be challenging because it can sometimes be cumbersome. Reporting is challenging. We use Avanti extraction to report off an endpoint. We don't use the reporting because of the need for more functionality, granularity, or customization.
Durai  Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution is expensive, support is poor, and it takes time to understand the product
I have worked with traditional antivirus solutions like Symantec, McAfee, Trend Micro, Kaspersky, Sophos, and F-Secure. Broadcom acquired Symantec, and Trellix acquired McAfee. The market is disturbed as other solutions are acquiring the traditional leaders. Getting support is becoming a challenge. Carbon Black provides endpoint detection and response. CrowdStrike provides vulnerability assessment and application testing features. It gives additional threat prevention to the customer. So, I prefer CrowdStrike over Carbon Black. Carbon Black and CrowdStrike provide very good market strategies.
