Great threat response, provides for proactivity, and has automated threat identification
In terms of the Pakistani market and talking from a salesperson's perspective, I'd suggest that Kaspersky introduce a bundle of Kaspersky EDR-Optimum or Kaspersky EDR-Expert along with its Business Select/Advance suite. When I say this, I understand the Pakistani market and how slow and less eager organizations are to invest in IT and internet security. Most of them don't invest until or unless they face any attack or network failure. However, in addition to the product, Kaspersky should give EDR-Optimum on the cloud for less than 300 users as well, in case any customer has its whole network on the cloud. That way they can easily use it.
Abel Browarnik - PeerSpot reviewer
A cost-effective security solution for endpoint protection
The initial setup is complex. It is rare to see an effective endpoint protection system that does not require some effort. It is neither on the cloud nor on-premises. You deploy it on every endpoint or server, irrespective of perimeter. You must use a deployment tool unless you prefer to do it manually on every endpoint or server. We used an automation tool to deploy it. Since we had MSI with us. We had to verify that everything worked, but it didn't take more than two weeks for 1000 endpoints.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most advantageous aspect is tracking and taking action automatically."
"The encryption feature that allows you complete control of your device is what I found most valuable in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum."
"Support has been helpful."
"The solution is very user friendly, which we appreciate."
"It protects against malware and secures the network."
"EDR Optimum's best features are its dashboard, control of external media, and user-friendliness."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum have met our requirements."
"It offers features like system hardening, vulnerability management, patch management, and device control, which are not present in other solutions."
"First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."
"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence."
 

Cons

"We would like more data to be available from this solution, in order for it to be usable in strategic decision making."
"For improvement, they should make the scanning process faster. The scanning and updating take more time."
"Support is an area for improvement. It should have faster response times."
"The application should be made a bit lighter so that it does not slow down the PC."
"Occasionally, I encounter connection problems, and the signal is not very good."
"Security features could be improved."
"The solution needs to give more control to users on firewalls."
"Scalability depends on various factors."
"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."
"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is affordability, even for companies with limited budgets, such as those in the Pakistani market. It is a subscription-based license."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is more affordable than the endpoint security product of Fortinet. Whether it's worth the money depends on your security strategy."
"The price is good, not too high."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. It cost approximately €10,000 annually."
"The pricing is totally reasonable."
"The solution could be made a bit cheaper."
"I would rate the product's pricing a nine out of ten. You need to pay about 80,000 rupees yearly for the tool. There are no additional costs associated with the product."
"Kaspersky gives a consolidated price with a good solution. If we choose something else, we need to add other options on our own."
