What is most valuable?

The product's most valuable feature is the flexibility of installation with the console and a simple administration strategy.

We have been using Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum for a year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Neutral

Provides advanced detection and anti-theft features
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution's most valuable features are the advanced detection and anti-theft features."
  • "The application should be made a bit lighter so that it does not slow down the PC."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution to protect PCs both in offices and home environments.

What is most valuable?

The solution's most valuable features are the advanced detection and anti-theft features.

What needs improvement?

The application should be made a bit lighter so that it does not slow down the PC.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for ten years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Around 30 users were using the solution in my previous organization.

How are customer service and support?

We haven't had any issues with the solution installed on the PC. When I was trying to install the tool on a server machine, we contacted the technical support team, who responded to our email and supported us.

How was the initial setup?

The solution’s initial setup is simple. The solution's deployment depends on how fast your internet and machine is.

What was our ROI?

The solution offers measurable benefits. Kaspersky is among the top five antivirus and internet security solutions. The tool is also well-priced. In terms of functionality, the solution will protect you from data loss, phishing, and many other troubles.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution could be made a bit cheaper.

What other advice do I have?

Just one person was needed for the solution's deployment and maintenance. After you install and enter the license, the environment performs constant scans. You can set it to be scanned daily at a particular time.

I would recommend the solution to other users because it is a good antivirus that protects the PC, prevents data theft, and detects the latest viruses.

We have seen different kinds of attacks, and Kaspersky has integrated very well. Suppose you connect a new computer to the network, and that particular computer has viruses. The solution tells you that this machine has some threats.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
