Rodrigo Censi - PeerSpot reviewer
Patch management and integration capabilities drive effective endpoint response management
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…
SupravatMaji - PeerSpot reviewer
Beneficial single unified dashboard, good native application integration, and high availability
My advice to those wanting to implement RSA NetWitness Network is they have to first do a little due diligence, such as the exact requirement based on their needs. That will give them a direction for their investment because otherwise, the bill of material or bill of quantity (BOQ) may be higher side. It is important to do good due intelligence on the environment, see the exact requirement, and then go ahead with the solution. The solution is perfectly stable. I rate RSA NetWitness Network a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is security. It has better security than other solutions, such as Symantec."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is a stable solution."
"The solution provides high-end security that is critical for financial institutions and bankers."
"The detection engine running on endpoints works very well and provides a good protection level."
"The solution's most valuable features are that it offers very strong encryption and acts as an antivirus product."
"It is easy to manage."
"EDR's most valuable feature is its basic protection from malware and viruses."
"Encryption is the most valuable feature. It creates an encryption tunnel from your location to the delivery address."
"The most valuable feature of RSA NetWitness Network is the single unified dashboard from which you can manage all the different products of RSA. Additionally, the integration with native applications is good."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"We've contacted technical support several times. They've been very good. They have been able to help us resolve our issues."
"Ability to isolate the machine when there are malicious files."
"The log correlation is good."
"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"It's a scalable solution. We have around five to eight customers using RSA NetWitness Endpoint, and we hope to increase the number of users."
 

Cons

"The Kaspersky console could be easier to navigate and generate reports from."
"The technical support team should respond in a more timely manner."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"The issue with Kaspersky EDR is the sandbox. I'd like to have the ability to manage it on the cloud as well."
"Kaspersky EDR currently has limited OS support. They only focus on Windows Server and Windows. Kaspersky recently released a Linux version, but it's rudimentary. It does not have any advanced features available on Windows platforms. They should increase their footprint on the Linux side and support other operating systems on the market, like MacOS."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response should continue to improve its protection while adapting to the changing threat ecosystems. Having more advanced features would be a benefit."
"Device control is lacking in EDR."
"The installation process could be more streamlined."
"The initial setup requires a high level of skill."
"The threat intelligence could improve in RSA NetWitness Endpoint."
"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."
"Threat detection could be better."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"The integration of the solution needs to be improved. The dashboard needs lots of updates as well. In the next release, we would like to see advanced fraud detection features."
"Its price could be improved. It is an expensive product. Its training is also too expensive. It would be great if they can have a better pricing scheme for the training."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"Pricing for Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is so-so when you compare it with its competitors. Its pricing isn't cheap nor expensive."
"EDR is priced on the cheaper side. Licensing for EDR is available on a yearly basis for around 80 SAR a year."
"We were on a three-year license to use Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response. The price could be better."
"Kaspersky is licensed on a yearly basis."
"The solution is worth its cost so I rate pricing a ten out of ten."
"Endpoint's pricing is good, especially compared to expensive solutions like Sophos."
"We have been satisfied with the license of the solution."
"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
"It is an expensive product."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
"The pricing is not very economical. It is a quite costly product for India. One thing is that when you purchase it, you have to purchase a module separately."
"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
