Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

Good user behavioral analysis and helpful patching but needs better support services
Some of our products have a first and second line owned by us. We are giving support services to the customers instead of the vendor. Some other products are supported directly by the technology vendor, however. Technical support from the vendor is very bad. Usually, when the customer submits a ticket, they put a severity level on the case. Whenever the case is very important, and there is a real malfunction in the product on the customer side, and there is something down that needs someone to have a look immediately, it takes more time than it should to even engage with the customer. When someone has to contact the customer and have a remote session within the customer environment, they sometimes lack in terms of communication with the customer. The support centers are located in the East and not all have an acceptable level of English in order to communicate directly with the customer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is secure."
"It's excellent at detecting viruses."
"It performs quite well as a firewall protection provider."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business has models that provide more security than other solutions"
"Using dashboards, it is very easy to manage."
"It allows for a solid form of risk management as well as a measure of remote device management."
"The most valuable features include the ability to upgrade and update all users from one console and to install the solution remotely."
"We're more familiar with Kaspersky's interface, and we find it more user-friendly. It also has more features than others, like with BitDefender and Mirco. The price is better, too."
"Threat prevention is valuable because most clients use other solutions like antivirus as part of web protection. I don't find that kind of solution useful."
"It is a stable solution...The solution's technical support is good."
"A big advantage of McAfee Endpoint Security is the ability to manage very big environments. We are supporting environments with 200,000 to 300,000 endpoints. The ability to manage with one single console is very important for us. McAfee has phenomenally improved in terms of detection. It provides real-time detection and response with the error, Real Protect, and reputations. It is not only based on signatures but also on behavior analytics, artificial intelligence, or machine learning. We have environments that never had issues with ransomware in the last 20 years. McAfee has a very good performance in this field."
"The solution provides a data view of the Alpha systems with Trellix installs and makes small changes to the central management console. Nothing on the endpoints themselves works, but it focuses more on the management side."
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
"The solution is broken down into different components from the portals. Web filtering, which is an added feature has been great for us."
"The most valuable features are the prevention layer that detects the signature value and prevents threats in the network."
"One valuable feature is Threat Prevention with the on-demand scan."
 

Cons

"It is not very good for the performance of the system, and especially with older devices, it has a noticeable impact."
"Currently, it doesn't have a cloud option. This is something that they should look into going forward."
"The admin console must be a little bit easier."
"I would like to have more forensic features. For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
"The solution needs to lower its pricing."
"I would like to see better reporting."
"Data loss prevention (DLP) in email security."
"When we connect to the solutions' website they block out our VPN connection. This causes us some difficulties."
"There are certain shortcomings in the features concerning DLP in Trellix, where certain additions must be made in the future."
"The solution's technical support should be improved since we faced a lot of issues with the support. There were some delays in responses from the technical support."
"It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment."
"The management console is a little bit difficult to understand for admins. You need a lot of time in order to become familiar with that. It is a little bit complicated and not too easy to understand. Its price can also be improved. Its price is higher than its competitors. McAfee also needs to have better cloud integration and more data centers in the EU. The cloud center should be in Europe or in Germany. In Germany, it is really important to have access to your data within the same country. Customer data needs to be placed and processed in the same country."
"Trellix lacked email protection when it was a McAfee product. They added this feature during the merger with FireEye, but it hasn't been fully integrated. The core features will be integrated into the next release. FireEye has several solutions for EDR and sandboxing."
"The vendor should simplify the way they bundle the products because it's very hard to explain to customers what products contain which features."
"The price of the solution is high in Asia."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is fine, and it is well within reasonable rates."
"The solution is comparatively priced."
"It would be beneficial if the price could be reduced, and improved management of the license allocation for adding additional Endpoint users would be advantageous."
"It's an affordable security solution."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"I don't remember exactly what the licenses cost, but it's not too expensive. It's affordable, especially when you are dealing with on-prem. However, I don't know about the new prices because we are in the process of buying support."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than other products."
"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is an inexpensive platform."
"No comment."
"Licensing is paid yearly."
"For each computer that is connected to the server McAfee charges us for each computer based on our license agreement."
"The pricing is great and licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"I rate Trellix Endpoint Security a nine out of ten for pricing."
