User-friendly interface simplifies management while performance issues during scanning need addressing
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is easy to implement and has a user-friendly interface. It stands out as an antivirus and malware protection solution due to its extensive feeds and resources for antivirus signatures. These capabilities enable effective malware protection. Additionally, it offers scalability as any endpoint added to Active Directory can be easily integrated by Kaspersky Security Center. Its straightforward deployment and ease of management are other valuable features. It does not require an advanced engineer to manage, and resources are readily available online, making it accessible and scalable.

While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool 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 initial setup was extremely straightforward and very easy."
"I am impressed with the tool's main dashboard, anti-malware application blocking, DDoS, etc."
"The implementation and integration are easy."
"The reporting feature is good. Also, the device control is good."
"Kaspersky Enterprise solution's combined protections have helped to block a lot of malware which would have caused a lot of interruptions in our operations."
"First of all, I like that it's perfect against malware threats and behavior analysis along with signature analysis. That's the key point for me."
"Endpoint Security is efficient and easy to use. It doesn't slow the performance of your personal computer."
"It's excellent at detecting viruses."
"It offers an easy initial setup."
"Great technical support staff."
"The dashboard management feature is valuable."
"Panda Security solution has a feature to block any unknown process and that is what is best about it."
"The protection from malware is the most important feature. It has some endpoint information about the vehicle of the virus, malware, etc. It is also stable and easy to install, and they also provide good technical support."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"The interface is great."
"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."
 

Cons

"Kaspersky and most other security products have a lot of modules. They recently added several new ones. You find yourself buying and deploying so many things. There are some modules that everyone uses, like, for example, the orchestration module. Instead of selling them separately, it would be better to have bundles or an all-in-one license."
"Utilizing the CPU usages during the scan process needs to be improved."
"The solution could provide more frequent updates."
"The solution needs to lower its pricing."
"Currently, it doesn't have a cloud option. This is something that they should look into going forward."
"I've had some problems with the web interface. For example, when I was running a trace, it's difficult to find this function, but I can see it when I go on the server. So, if I want to implement the EDR functions on the web interface, it's very difficult because the command button or the link doesn't appear."
"The GUI mode in the product is an area with certain shortcomings since it looks old with the graphics provided by Kaspersky."
"The solution sometimes slows down the computers of our clients, the performance needs to improve."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
"Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement."
"They could have more reports."
"It would be nice if Panda Security Adaptive Defense could come out with remote desktop usage."
"Occasionally, we suffer from little bugs that give us the wrong message."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a yearly license, and the pricing is fine."
"The solution requires a license and there are different license packages depending on the number of users you need."
"The price is reasonable. We evaluated some other vendors, but Kaspersky charges less and offers more."
"It's a little more expensive compared to other competitors like Symantec."
"Pricing is very competitive and licensing is very much ethical."
"We purchase the product's yearly license. I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"The solution is comparatively priced."
"The tool is too expensive compared to other products."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
"I don't think Panda's license is too expensive, but they're charging more than it's worth. It's a yearly license. For 1,000 endpoints, it's around $18,000."
"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
