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…

Offers excellent endpoint protection and great stability
Technically speaking, the customer support is okay, but the responsiveness needs to be improved. I'm referring to the universal support, as the Israeli staff are excellent and always willing to help. However, opening a case and entering into a back-and-forth with emails takes too much time. It should be working more quickly and smoothly.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use the solution for endpoint protection, virus detection, and centralized administration."
"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."
"The antivirus feature is very, very good."
"We have over 1,000 users using the solution in our organization and the solution has been able to handle it."
"As far as it functions, it works fine."
"They have a very good reporting system and they have a very good dashboard for the administrator, which makes monitoring everything easy."
"The solution is very easy to use. It's an extremely user-friendly product."
"It is very efficient. I like its simplicity."
"Trend Micro Deep Security is a complete solution and all the threat management has been taken care of."
"It serves its purpose and works well."
"It is stable and we have not faced any challenges during the rolled out"
"It is connected into an intelligence database and is quick to pick up new threats. It also reduces my workload with its speed and the protection that it provides."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the virtual path function, which is the reason we chose to implement it."
"We find that their technical support team is always accessible and willing to assist."
"The solution provides ease of use, especially from non-technical testing. It's one of the best things. The deployment process is one of the easiest things because we didn't train our on-site consultant. The constant training from Trend Micro's side is that they develop internal causes to understand the upgrade because once they upgrade the platform, they also upgrade the technical person's skills."
"The file integrity and log inspection are game-changing features for us."
 

Cons

"The GUI of the product is too basic, making it an area where improvements are required."
"It should be more secure and detect new malware as it's released."
"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."
"There were issues with the cloud management."
"There are quite a number of areas for improvement. The first area for improvement is that I find this solution to be very resource intensive when you're running a particular task, even a mere scanning task, even though it's running in the background. When you go to inspect the resources you realize it makes the machine very slow. It takes up a lot of resources even though there are no particular scanning tasks scheduled to run. That's one of the issues."
"A big improvement would be allowing us to reconfigure the agents and change what to whitelist for a specific user. If the user is not happy with the configuration and is being blocked from certain sites, we should be able to reconfigure the monitoring mechanics to make it more flexible."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security could have more visibility and threat hunting. Right now, if it detects a file, it's quarantined, and then we can't find more details other than the path and the file name. We don't see what process it's warning off and how the virus got in. So, the reporting on the quarantined items, why were they quarantined, etc., could be improved."
"The licensing fees could be reduced."
"It needs to improve its integration with a lot of other products. This should be in the road map because we have a lot of SaaS-based appliances which are not connected with each other."
"Trend Micro is not government certified or federal complaint. If they could become compliant/certified, this would make it easier for us to use it for our government projects."
"The email relays and proxies could be improved."
"The tool should integrate SIM functionality. It should also improve customer support."
"The licensing structure could improve."
"We have had some issues when it drains some of the resources of the server."
"AWS products could become more compatible with intrusion detection products leveraging help from Trend Micro."
"The initial setup needs improvement, as it was a bit challenging."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This solution is priced lower than some of its competitors. The support from Kaspersky is purchased separately."
"It is a cost-effective product."
"It is a cost-effective endpoint security service."
"The price of this solution is affordable and there is only a standard license required."
"The solution's pricing is acceptable."
"Kaspersky is priced well."
"We have an annual license and there is a fee per device used. The price is fair compared to the latest EDR solution."
"Licensing fees are paid annually."
"The solution is considerably cheaper than other similar solutions."
"We are an original partner with AWS, so a couple of customers chose to directly take it from AWS Marketplace. A couple of customers will want us to take care of the billing. So, it's a mixed type of reaction that we receive from the customer."
"The pricing is fair."
"Purchasing on the AWS Marketplace is like shopping on Amazon Prime."
"We have saved a 50% ROI for the on-premise product. It gave us significant improvement overall in productivity, costs, and efficiency."
"Licensing fees are paid yearly."
"The cost is approximately six thousand Qatari Riyal ($1650 USD) per user."
"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."
