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…

Provides a single dashboard, integrates well, and has predictive machine learning
Microsoft's new Azure Code Signing is causing a lot of issues for us with One Endpoint Security. We currently have two systems in operation, on-prem and SaaS, and many of the agents won't upgrade beyond version B11564 because these newer versions require Azure Code Signing compliance on the endpoint. If we are not up to date with our Windows updates, we don't have this compliance. Irrespective of the Windows version we are running, we have to apply patches to the machines, if the OS is not damaged, to make them compliant. After that, we can upgrade to the latest version of the respective agent. This process also applies to both Deep Security and Workload Security. I have two production servers: one for Windows and another for Mac. These servers are available in both on-premise and SaaS versions. Additionally, I have a test server that is located on-premises. The significant distinction with the SaaS version is the absence of a test server where I can install a new version. This means I can't allow the agents on it to upgrade and then perform testing. In contrast, with the production SaaS version of One Endpoint Security, I have numerous agents transitioning and coming online. It's essential that these agents upgrade to a newer version. Among these agents, there are five or six different versions, not counting the really old ones that have yet to upgrade due to ACS non-compliance. I can't leave the testing phase for an extended period because I still have outdated agents that need to be updated. These agents can't be left hanging while I wait to test the newest version that has just been released. New versions seem to come out every couple of months in the SaaS environment. In the past, when I solely used the on-premises version, I would review security bulletins for the SaaS version to identify any issues. I'm apprehensive about potential future situations involving this, primarily because the majority of our agents now operate on the cloud version. If a problem is discovered, rolling back on those agents would be challenging. It would require careful operation to revert them to a different version. The on-premises version of One Endpoint Security has an update function that allows us to manually update a bunch of servers. For example, if I just turned on a policy, I can force the agents to quickly download the policy and start following the update procedure or update settings. However, this function is not available in the SaaS version. This is because the system cannot communicate with the agent through the firewall. The SaaS version has an automatic update function and an update source entry in the update agents sub-menu, but it does not have a way to force agents to update. This is a problem because we cannot automatically update the agents. We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command. Currently, we have no choice but to wait until the agents find the updates themselves.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is an effective solution. It provides a wide range of security and defense features."
"It allows for a solid form of risk management as well as a measure of remote device management."
"It's flexible, and Kaspersky Endpoint Security's performance is good. Also, the pricing is fine."
"The security is very good, compared to some other products."
"It has improved our performance and deployment."
"It performs quite well as a firewall protection provider."
"It integrates well across different operating systems, including mobile devices like Android and Mac. It effectively manages firewalls, particularly with Fortinet, enhancing overall security posture."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business's most valuable feature is the ease of management."
"The product offers almost all of the features the client expects from such a solution."
"The solution offers great visibility into their IT infrastructure and uses industry-leading threat intelligence strategies."
"When comparing to other products the console is much more user-friendly, and it's easy to implement."
"The graphical user interface is simple, making it easy to navigate without the need for additional training or complex documentation."
"Workload security now has a feature called Activity Monitor for each endpoint."
"Its threat-hunting capabilities and the information about the known threats are the most available features. It can easily catch any threat in our environment."
"Its reporting and dashboard are valuable. Its dashboard is easy to use."
"The AI and machine learning feature is the most valuable because it helps mitigate threats based on an organization's behavioral patterns."
 

Cons

"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business’s interface could be easier to understand when displaying the activities during configuration processes."
"We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system."
"The training provided by the vendor to resellers and end users needs to be improved"
"The solution could improve by providing a cloud service that synchronizes with the on-premise console which would give better connectivity in remote areas."
"They can improve the zero-day exploit to be more effective."
"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."
"When it comes to handling the expiration of licenses, the solution should give a company more time to set up a renewal. It happens too abruptly right now."
"The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
"Initially, it isn't easy to understand the console because most of the applications integrate through Visual One. When we create a new dashboard, it takes some time to adapt, but the IT staff does not have any problems."
"There were challenges in uninstalling the Trend Micro solution from certain endpoints."
"The portal is a little bit slow in loading. The cloud portal or management control should be a little faster. There seems to be a lot of load on their servers over there. Maybe they are using one server for multiple customers. It would be great if they can increase server performance in the cloud. Its technical support and reporting can be improved. There is no proper reporting, and there is no PDF or things like that. They should include detailed reporting. An attack happened at a client's site, but we couldn't get the report on the same day. We were unable to provide a detailed report to our client. We approached the technical support, and even they didn't give proper answers. They need to improve the reporting capabilities, or the technical team should support us in providing these reports. They should include reporting in the solution. They should also insert sandbox analysis in Apex One."
"The console can be better in terms of management and viewing the hierarchy of devices. Currently, setting up the hierarchy OU-wise is a bit cumbersome. It can be made a bit easier. If that can be more user-friendly and easier to manage, it would be great."
"Sometimes it will not communicate with the server, and we need to manually restart items."
"The integration is lacking in Trend Micro Apex One. It does not integrate well with Microsoft p solutions. For example, with Office 365, we have to buy another solution for mail protection. That's why we are assessing Microsoft Defender 365 because we have an email from Microsoft, an endpoint from Microsoft, and we use Windows systems."
"Trend Micro Apex One could improve by providing signatureless detection, reducing the agent's needed system resources to increase performance, and enhance further the vulnerability assessment feature. These changes would be very helpful in the future."
"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution's pricing is reasonable."
"The licensing cost can be about $1,300 per year."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"We purchase the product's yearly license. I rate the pricing five out of ten."
"I think the price of this solution is good."
"Licensing fees are paid annually."
"It's an affordable security solution."
"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."
"Trend Micro Apex One's pricing is good."
"The license is expensive but it is a complete solution."
"Its price is competitive."
"Trend Micro Apex One's subscription model is definitely on the expensive side."
"The cost of this solution is mid-level; not cheap nor expensive."
"The price of the solution was expensive in the first year we had it because we were purchasing it locally. This year we have a global discount for the license. There is an additional cost if you want maintenance support."
"Its pricing was good. It is very competitive with all the other vendors."
"The pricing of Trend Micro Apex One was reasonable. There is a license required to use the solution and we have upgraded the solution to include some additional features, such as XDR."
