ESET Endpoint Protection Platform Reviews

We use the solution as an antivirus, a local firewall, and anti-malware protection.

The best features of this solution are the fast anti-malware and antivirus detection, and the powerful local firewall. 

In the future, a cloud version of the solution would be great. The interface is too complicated, our clients contact us because they are not able to do some tasks such as updating. In addition, updating the toolkit and detection feature would be advantageous.

I have been using the solution for three years.

The stability is the best.

A lot of our customers are small businesses but we did not have issues with scalability with the solution.

I would say that this solution has the best support team in this kind of Endpoint protection product.

The setup is complicated, there are too many elements to configure.

One of our customers who was scheduled to renew 120 licenses in March, is evaluating other solutions because they must have one that is fully in the cloud. ESET is AWS implementation, it is not a true cloud solution.

We have some other customers that are evaluating other solutions such as Broadcom, Norton, McAfee, Kaspersky, and Microsoft. Additionally, some of our larger business customers with more users are evaluating F-Secure.

If I was to compare ESET and Symantec, one of the enormous differences is Symantec provides a cloud version.

We have had a reduction of customers for this product do to the pandemic slowing down operations. 

I rate ESET Endpoint Security an eight out of ten.

We are using ESET Endpoint Antivirus for the protection of our workstations and servers.

The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are that it is lightweight,  it will not take up too much CPU and memory of the server or workstation. The detection is good and easy to use.

ESET Endpoint Antivirus can improve by having better EDR intelligence and automation. The EDR still needs lots of human interpretation. It can be better if add more intelligence to the EDR part of the endpoint protection.

I have been using ESET Endpoint Antivirus for over 10 years.

ESET Endpoint Antivirus is highly stable.

The scalability of the ESET Endpoint Antivirus is good.

I have found the support to be good.

The price of ESET Endpoint Antivirus is fair compared to the performance of other solutions.

My advice to others wanting to implement this solution is to use a cloud version. It's pretty mature and very stable and easy to use. Hosting their own on-prem server is not a great idea anymore. I recommend others choose cloud consoles.

I rate ESET Endpoint Antivirus a nine out of ten.

If they added some more sophisticated application control. If they added this feature it would bring them closer to a 10.

We use the solution to try to protect against bugs. I simply install it on all our computers, in its basic format, for the purpose of dealing with basic bugs. I do not have the capabilities to use the solution for more advanced purposes. Basically, we use it for protection. 

I would like for the solution to be simpler to understand. While it satisfies our needs at the moment, it is really only understandable to those with a strong computer background. It could be more user-friendly. 

The solution should provide a basic standard and give instructions on how one could go about doing more complex tasks. When it comes to basic capabilities, it is fine and straightforward, so I have no complaint in this regard. 

The solution could be more cost-effective, but this is a blanket statement which can be made about anything. 

We have been using ESET Endpoint Security for more than five years. 

The stability is great. It is perfect and effortless, which is why I like the solution. There is no need to involve oneself with this. 

I suppose the solution is scalable, although I have no personal knowledge of this. I have never attempted to scale it. 

I have contacted technical support on a couple of occasions. I simply call Auckland and they instruct me how to proceed. I am satisfied with the support. It is good. 

The initial setup was completely simple. 

It took all of a few minutes. 

I handled the installation independently. 

The solution requires nearly no maintenance. There are only the regular updates, which it mostly handles on its own. 

As is the general rule with anything, the solution could be cheaper. 

We started using the solution based on the recommendations of several friends of mine who have much familiarity with computers and have simply continued to do so. 

While I don't recall the exact figure, I believe there are seven or eight users making use of the solution. We use it on our server, as well. 

I would definitely recommend the solution to others. 

I rate ESET Endpoint Security as a ten out of ten. 

It is pretty easy to deploy. Its update definition file is small, so it can dispatch very quickly within the enterprise. The product itself is very lightweight, so it won't delay your endpoint. You also don't have to do any difficult configuration because it comes with a very good default setting. So, you just install it and forget it.

They recently released an EDR integration. I hope they have more AI or intelligence filtering on the EDR events. Even though it has already got AI, but it is quite a different thing. So, they still have room to improve on the EDR part. This is one small piece that they need to improve. Otherwise, it is just fine.

I have been using this solution for over 10 years.

It is excellent. It is a really stable solution.

It is scalable. It can easily handle more than 10,000 endpoints.

We are a small enterprise.

I am providing support to our end customers. The support that we get from headquarters is pretty good. We get very good support from ESET.

For endpoint security, I'm only working with ESET.

It is pretty easy.

Its price is reasonable.

I would advise others to not install it along with any other endpoints security solution. Some people love to have two or more solutions, but it is meaningless.

I would rate ESET Endpoint Security a nine out of 10.

We primarily use the solution for endpoint security. It's used to keep our computers virus free. That's the main use case.

It has an easy user interface. The manageability is also easy. 

It's low on system resources.

The initial setup was very straightforward.

The solution is generally affordable. 

Support has been helpful and responsive. 

The maintenance is easy. 

They should focus more on the offline market as well. Everybody is connected nowadays, and they want to do everything via cloud or fast internet connections, however, that's still not possible in many situations.

The API integration with our system should be better.

I've been using the solution for 15 years at this point. 

The stability and reliability are very good. I'd rate it five out of five. There are no issues with bugs or glitches. 

We have 30,000 people on the solution currently. Pretty much everyone uses it. 

It's very easy to scale up with the product and also very easy to scale down again as well.

I'd rate the scalability five out of five. 

Technical support has been very good overall. 

Positive

The initial setup was very easy. It's not complex to deploy. 

We only had three engineers involved in the implementation. It was a small team.

The deployment was quick. We had everything done in a day.

We only really need one person to maintain the solution.

We handled the initial setup in-house. We didn't need outside assistance from any consultants or integrators. 

We've seen ROI. It was pretty quickly realized as well. 

The licensing is very flexible. It can be per month, per year, or licensed over several years. It's really whatever you want. We do it per month in our company.

We find it to be generally affordable. I'd rate it a five out of five in terms of affordability.

We are partners with ESET on some products. 

We are now on the latest version of the solution. 

We use a mix of on-premises and cloud. The cloud deployment was introduced in the last year or so.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. I'd advise others to use the solution as it is easy to manage. 

This solution is used in medium to large enterprises.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the ease of use.

I also like the confidence in this product.

I am a MAC user and my ESET cybersecurity is continuously displaying warnings that I am not using their firewall. I don't want to use their firewall because I am using the MAC firewall.

It's annoying to constantly see the triangle with an exclamation mark to warn me. I don't want to see this warning, I am aware of the warning and decided not to use it. It would be nice if there was a way to hide this notification or if there was a way to not show it at all.

I have been using ESET Endpoint Security for approximately three years.

It's a stable solution.

We have approximately 25 users in our organization.

We have not needed to use technical support.

The initial setup was straightforward. It was easy.

The price is okay and I don't have any issues with it.

We have a three-year license.

We plan to continue using this solution and I would recommend it to others.

Overall, I like this product and I am satisfied with what it does.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We use this solution to protect our endpoints from malware, zero-day attack, etc.

It has a clean and clear interface. The performance on the endpoint, no matter the system, its resource usage is low. We have pretty good detection, at least I feel that we don't have any major infections — we love it.

We can use this solution to perform lots of tasks, like upgrading. We can integrate with Windows. Some of the patches don't update by default, by Microsoft. We can do some software installations, in-store — which is pretty easy. Whenever we upgrade, our lives become much easier.

ESET Endpoint Security should offer more integration with multi-attack frameworks. This is very important for large corporate businesses as it would provide protection against hackers, data breaches, etc.

I have been using this solution for roughly 12 years. 

We experience some stability issues from time to time, but we can't confirm it's due to ESET. Some system tasks read past some script which makes it difficult for developing custom tasks. For normal installations, it's fine.

ESET Endpoint Security should be able to integrate with DLP better — that would be great. They already have EDR, but we don't use it. Some have more DLP functionality than others. 

They have local support here, so they're pretty good. They seem to know what we need. Overall, I'd say their support is very good.

After we upgraded to version six, it's been pretty easy to continue upgrading. It's pretty straightforward to upgrade and install. 10 years ago, this wasn't the case. We had to install each upgrade one by one. 

I think it's available for a pretty fair price. If you know how to use it, then it's a very fair price for what you get.

They provide a free trial version. Install it and try it for yourself to see the performance and test the detection capabilities. Then you can see the result; that's what I remember the first time I tried ESET. 

Overall, on a scale from one to ten, I would give ESET Endpoint Security a rating of nine.

Our company is a reseller for ESET (Essential Security against Evolving Threats), and we are here to sell the product to our customers. Our customers are usually using the product for antivirus and for firewall protection against threats and malware.  

The feature of the product that is most valuable is endpoint security.  

The product could be improved by having better integration with other services. Specifically, it would be good if they had better integration with Kaspersky and Nvidia (Next Version Envy and Vision).  

It is also possible that they could be a little more aggressive with malware.  

We have been using the product for five or six years.  

For the most part, the product works very well. It is stable and we do not have any bugs or glitches with this solution. The only problem that we have had is in trying to move some clients to version 6.5. In many cases, we can not uninstall or upgrade this version with the package provided. We must go with a CMD tool on safe mode to uninstall the program and install the new version that way. But this is the only bug we have experienced and it is not affecting the utility of the product. It is just a problem with the installation of the upgrade.  

We have not experienced any scalability issues with any of our clients.  

We have contacted the tech support team maybe one or two times. I would evaluate them as being very good. I have no issues with how they handle our requests. We have been satisfied with their support.  

The initial installation time can be counted in minutes or maybe a few hours. It does not take that long to get up and running.  

We are the ones who do the installations for our customers.  

I think ESET is very good. It is at the top of its game. That is the reason we choose to support and sell it. We can easily recommend it to our customers with confidence. We are very glad to support this antivirus solution.  

On a scale from one to ten (where one is the worst and ten is the best), I would rate this product as a ten-out-of-ten. I think that right now it is the perfect solution.
