Effective threat predictions, simple to deploy, and light on resources
Malwarebytes's initial setup is simple. It is easy to deploy and configure the policies and the configuration. I deployed Malwarebytes for one customer and I did it in under two days. They had approximately 50 users, it took approximately an hour. The steps I took for the implementation were downloading the Malwarebytes management console from the site, installing it, then running the discovery tool, scanning my network, and checking all of the PCs on my network. It's already pre-configured, you don't need to configure anything. The only configuration that I did on the administration console was some of the exclusion from the scan. This is the only rule that I have created. I rate the initial setup of Malwarebytes a ten 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 most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"It comprehensively finds and removes malicious software."
"It allows us to have better knowledge of the way people use the tool and how we can improve their workflows."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that I can use it wherever I want, be it at the office, at home, or even outside."
"I was very satisfied with Malwarebytes in terms of its antivirus abilities."
"It is intuitive and easy to use. For the most part, it does a good job of catching things. It is good at stopping stuff. I did a couple of tests with a password cracker. I tried to load that on, and Malwarebytes didn't let me do that, which was pretty good. It has a rollback feature that I haven't seen with any other company. If one of your endpoints are hit with mass ransomware, you could actually roll it back. I watched a demo of them do that, and it was pretty sweet."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
 

Cons

"We had a little performance problem with the solution, but that's been resolved. Since then, it's been running well."
"The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it."
"Strictly in terms of cyber security, the release cycle should be quarterly, at most. It shouldn't be more frequent than that because, for one thing, keeping up with tech support is difficult."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"They can include advanced scanning and improve reporting. I scan malware on the pen drive. Some more reports need to be added for that. It should also provide better protection because we have a new version of the malware."
"The reporting is not as flexible as you would find with other antivirus software."
"Malwarebytes is not there in the reports from Gartner or IDC...If we look at the market trends and the industry, most customers look at Gartner's reports to identify whether a product is a leader, challenger, or a big product, depending on which they choose."
"This solution reports far too many false positives!"
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"The interface is slow."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is per seat, with clients being a little less expensive than servers. If we need more licenses, we can accomplish that within a day. As Malwarebytes adds new features to their product, such as DNS filtering and a patching module, they want to charge us more even though we're a premium user, which isn't ideal."
"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."
"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."
"It is expensive."
"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."
"Yearly, it is around $50 per client."
"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
