Protects the global station and has good stability
The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better. The solution needs better integration with products, if it did, it would have the assumption of better security. I've been using the solution since…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
"It has intelligent learning behind it and we have been very successful in preventing attacks."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."
"The best feature of this solution is that we have a live response, which is really tailored to our needs."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of VMware Carbon Black Endpoint was easy."
"There's lots of very useful documentation online to help troubleshoot and learn about the product."
"It uses machine learning and behavioral analytics for advanced threat detection and response."
"The solution has a library where we can have multiple threat intels onboarded. We just have to subscribe to a particular site intel and they'll provide us with all of the truncated details so that we can create IOCs and alerts on the basis of those IOCs."
"It actually does some heuristics, and some behavioral analysis."
 

Cons

"The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better."
"The endpoint machines need improvement."
"It is difficult to extract reports for ongoing scans"
"In the next release, it would help if we can get better control over containers."
"As far as I know, Carbon Defense has nothing that can be installed on mobile devices. It lacks a defense solution for mobile devices, especially mobile tablets. I would like to see support for mobile devices and the pricing should be less than the pricing for a normal workstation."
"I haven't run into anything that needs improvement. The website interface can be a little bit better, but it's still good as compared to most others."
"It would be a better solution if Carbon Black Cb Defense had an on-promise solution and a virus auto delete or quarantine."
"Report generation can be improved."
"Integration is difficult, but CB Defense is more powerful than others. It is difficult to implement but easy to pick up many detections."
