Great at handling server workload but abundance of features can be confusing
Pros and Cons

What is our primary use case?
What needs improvement?
Areas for improvement include signature update management and selecting the respective features on the endpoint side. There are so many features available that it can be difficult to know which to choose, and if you have very low-level endpoint devices, the user experience is slower, especially when updates are running.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using this solution for about three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
This product is stable, though that can depend on business structure and the kinds of devices used.
