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…

Reliable with good independent modules and a straightforward setup
I'd rate the solution seven out of ten. Having used Trend Micro as well, I would rate Trend Micro higher. However, I would still choose this product as a second option. When we recommend a product, we would recommend something based on the fit of the product and customer requirements. We worked with Defender, we worked with Trend Micro, and we worked with McAfee. All of them almost overlap in multiple use cases. That said, we do see the customer IT strategy and where they're going, and they are adopting Azure more. We know there are certain limitations in their landscape where there may be some old legacy systems, and in that case, then we would either switch back to McAfee or Trend Micro instead of Defender.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"In EDR, they have a sandbox feature. Kaspersky's threat detection and response capability is very good, making it a strong feature."
"The malware threat detection has been excellent overall."
"There is plenty of features that make the solution work very well."
"The centralized management is a nice features. It gives us the leeway to deal with other things as protection is being carried on in the background. We do not have to keep on watching as long as we have the right updates. It also saves us time."
"The admin capabilities are great."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business's most valuable feature is the ease of management."
"I can easily manage over 300 computers antivirus from my desk."
"Center Management"
"The threat scanning is excellent. It uses predictive technology and I can utilize attack data to help us fine-tune our systems and network infrastructure. This protects us against current and future attacks."
"It's a stable solution with good performance."
"FireEye Endpoint Security is easy to use and lightweight compared to others."
"The platform’s most valuable features are ease of use, integration, and deployment."
"It's very stable and reliable."
"It is scalable and stable and the initial setup is the easiest part of using the product."
"MVISION offers decent protection."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint is stable."
 

Cons

"The GUI mode in the product is an area with certain shortcomings since it looks old with the graphics provided by Kaspersky."
"It's grown more expensive and customers are not happy about it."
"The product must improve its price to suit small and mid-size enterprises."
"I would like to see the inclusion of support for device management and device control."
"The GUI of the product is too basic, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It's very heavy and it affects the computer's performance."
"This solution used a lot of memory and GPU; it would be nice if this could be reduced."
"When we connect to the solutions' website they block out our VPN connection. This causes us some difficulties."
"I would like to see more automation."
"The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
"Impacts performance of the servers quite negatively."
"The performance could be better. I noticed that it slows down a bit."
"The product could be flexible and offer better pricing."
"In some cases, the detection part was not accurate enough. We opened a few cases for the vendor to help us with some miscategorized findings on the endpoints. There were some false positive detections, and we had to work with the vendor to get them tested. We even had some incidents that were not detected. It was a black box type of solution for us."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. The price should be improved, it's high."
"They have something called Managed Detection and Response. They get intel from their customers, and that intel is shared with the rest of FireEye's customers. I want to subscribe to their intel, but that is not available to us."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"There is an annual license required to use Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business."
"We pay a yearly annual subscription for this product."
"We have been using a yearly subscription and feel that pricing could be better. Perhaps, discounts could be given, during the renewal process, to those who have been customers for some time."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten. You need to pay extra costs for additional modules. The product's licensing costs are yearly."
"The product is available at a low price."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is an expensive solution."
"Customers would need to purchase a license. If a customer purchases an MVISION Endpoint license, he may use that license to install ENS. It's a flexible license where you have the option to either use the McAfee security software or the Windows Defender managed by McAfee, which is MVISION Endpoint."
"I don't think there are any extra expenses besides its licensing costs."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) has a reasonable price."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and quite reasonable compared to other similar products."
"The current pricing is much better than before because they now offer product-related promotions along with some changes in product licensing. The new pricing model is better than before."
"The price of the product is similar to the ones in the market that offer the same features."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"It is a yearly subscription-based product, which includes the license and hardware. There is also a subscription for technical support up to five years."
