Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Reviews

We're using Kaspersky for antivirus protection and endpoint protection.

We're more familiar with Kaspersky's interface, and we find it more user-friendly. It also has more features than others, like with BitDefender and Mirco. The price is better, too.

I'd like to see them improve encryption and remote management in the future. Kaspersky could also improve its scanning technology. Other solutions have adopted machine learning and deep learning, but Kaspersky still uses signature-based scanning. They need to take advantage of new technology to revamp their scanning. Kaspersky could add more interactive features to their interface because it has been the same for six years. 

We've been using Endpoint Security for almost six years.

Kaspersky is stable.

Kaspersky is scalable. 

If we create a ticket today, they'll usually reply by the next morning. They have the option to get faster support, where they'll call within half an hour and collect information, but we didn't opt for that. 

Setting up Endpoint Security is easy. 

The price is reasonable. We evaluated some other vendors, but Kaspersky charges less and offers more.

I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security eight out of 10. 

I used the solution for signature-based detection, machine learning, threat detection, behavior-based detection, and for the endpoint.

The solution's most helpful features for threat detection are machine learning analytics and behavior analytics. The solution's reporting capabilities are good. I can generate and schedule custom reports from it. It's helpful and gives us a high, medium, and low-risk-based approach.

Some threats were able to bypass the solution's detection.

I have been using Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business for four years.

I haven’t faced any stability issues with this solution.

The solution’s technical support is okay.

Positive

I have worked with other tools, but I like Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business because it gives full endpoint control, including detection, vulnerability management, and file integrity.

The solution fulfilled our needs for the endpoints, including enhanced security and detection for the endpoints.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is not an expensive solution.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

I use the solution in my company for endpoints and for anti-malware purposes. I use the solution for the endpoints in our infrastructure, so it allows me to block USBs or any other incoming connections from unknown sources.

The tool is easy to use for me, especially if it is the on-premises version. The product is easy to install. The best thing about the solution stems from the fact that it is available at a very low price with a lot of features that can be modified to meet the users' requirements. The policies of the product are easy to use.

The product is hard to use on a cloud server. From an improvement perspective, the use of the product on a cloud server should be made better. The GUI of the product is too basic, making it an area where improvements are required.

I have been using Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business for five to six years. I don't remember the version of the solution. My company has a partnership with Kaspersky.

The major problem I have with the product stems from the fact that it needs more RAM space. My company has to make more RAM space.

Around 2,000 people in my company use the product.

I am very happy with the solution's technical support team.

The product's initial setup phase was easy.

Users must install MySQL first, after which they can install Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business, after which they can use a package installer from another client that automatically connects the tool on the server, making it an easy process.

The solution is deployed on an on-premises model.

The solution can be deployed in an hour or two.

The product is available at a low price.

The integration of the tool with our company's existing IT infrastructure is good and helpful.

In my company, we have choices. If I want to use a cloud-based tool for endpoint security, we use Sophos. If I want an on-premises endpoint security product, I prefer Kaspersky.

If you want cheap endpoint security, especially on an on-premises server, I highly recommend Kaspersky since it is easy to use, install, and available at a low price.

I rate the overall tool a ten out of ten.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security is used to protect from and respond to anything tentatively identified as a virus and ransomware.

Kaspersky protects our company from ransomware attacks. We have multiple sites across the country, including the principal headquarters and different towns. We can see any viruses that are in the network and take action.

I've had some problems with the web interface. For example, when I was running a trace, it's difficult to find this function, but I can see it when I go on the server. So, if I want to implement the EDR functions on the web interface, it's very difficult because the command button or the link doesn't appear. 

I've been using Endpoint Security for about two years.

Kaspersky is generally stable, but I run into problems when I schedule one hour of EDR on my network. The different machines on my network slowed down, so I reduced the scheduled EDR to one or two hours per day. After that, my PC was very fast.

I believe Kaspersky Endpoint Security is scalable. We currently have 600 users. We could possibly increase our usage if the number of users increases.

Kaspersky's support is good. We haven't had any problems. When I had difficulties installing Kaspersky, support texted sent us a fix.

Setting up Kaspersky was difficult. It took about three weeks to deploy because I have 600 PCs. I had a hard time installing the old version of Kaspersky on a PC. And there was a delay in connecting Kaspersky to the new server. We have a team of 10 IT people responsible for managing the solution.

We had help from a reseller. The reseller helped a lot because my PC environment was old, so it was challenging to implement.

The cost of a Kaspersky enterprise license comes out to about $18,000 annually.

I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security eight out of 10. My advice to new Kaspersky users is to have a good PC and a solid network infrastructure. Also, when you have any issues, it's essential to resolve them quickly. I recommend Endpoint Security because it has been good to me. It automatically responds to viruses or ransomware activities, so I don't have to do anything. My biggest lesson from using Kaspersky is realizing the importance of antivirus software on our network.

We use the solution as an antivirus product. 

The solution is an effective protection tool with easy management. The suite has numerous features that, if purchased separately, would cost us significantly.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a strong yet lightweight tool. It allows us to control machines even when disconnected from the network. In offline mode, we can generate passwords and access the system. The policies it offers are robust.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business needs an easier mechanism for updates. 

I have been working with the product for six years. 

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is stable. 

We have 9000 endpoints. 

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business' support is good. 

Positive

The tool's deployment was straightforward with the help of Kaspersky. It takes one week to complete. 

We have seen ROI with the product. 

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business' pricing is reasonable, and licensing costs are annual. 

I rate the tool a nine out of ten. 

Our primary use case is for protecting our desktops and critical servers. This solution is deployed on-premises. 

One of the most valuable features of this product is that it's good for endpoint protection. 

This product could be improved by integration with Linux. The one limitation this product has is that it's not compatible with and doesn't offer protection for Linux servers. It could also be easier to configure. 

We have been using this solution for six to seven years. 

Our organization has approximately 500 users of this solution. 

We have local support that we contact in case of any issues. If local support is unable to resolve it, then we connect the issue to Kaspersky. 

We haven't used any other solutions. We have used Kaspersky from the beginning. 

The installation was easy, all you need to do is install it with the installer. The configuration is a bit tricky, though. You can do it yourself if you are knowledgeable in this area, but if not, you may need help from the vendor. We had a team of three or four who handled deployment, in addition to the support we received from the vendor. 

Installation time will depend on the organization since each organization will have different things to configure. It should take somewhere between half an hour to an hour to configure, but it depends on the size of the organization. 

We implemented through an in-house team, but had vendor support. 

We pay for licensing annually. 

We also evaluated Rapid7's AppSpider product, which is an application vulnerability scanning solution. We had done the POC, but we had issues with the licensing model, so we dropped it. 

I rate Kaspersky an eight out of ten. I would 100% recommend Kaspersky to others who are considering implementation. 

Our primary use case is protection against spyware. We are partners with Kaspersky. 

The solution is easy to deploy, easy to use, and has a good detection rate. For the SMB segment, it's an optimal solution that is pocket-friendly, and easy to manage. They have a new training portal which is good. 

There were some issues with reporting which seem to have been resolved. I'd like to see them go to the next level by adding more products because they're restricted to endpoint protection for now.  

I've been using this solution for one year. I'm a company director. 

This solution is stable. 

To date, we've deployed to around 2,000 users without any issues - I can't comment on numbers above that.

I haven't needed to contact technical support. 

Kaspersky pricing is reasonable. If you compare it to other top brands such as Symantec and McAfee, Kaspersky costs 30-40% less.

I have also worked with Checkpoint Harmony which is good if you're in the enterprise segment. It gives a complete overview of what is happening in your organization, providing detailed information.

I recommend this solution and think that Kaspersky Antivirus is the best antivirus for SMBs. No doubt about it. That said, I do think the quality of service and ease of use is relatively comparable with any of the other top brands. 

I rate this product 10 out of 10. 

The normal use case was for viruses protection. The viruses were getting transferred through the internet and external storage drives to the end-users. However, I am seeing more often customers are going one step further and using a sandboxing environment for protection against ransomware.

When comparing Kaspersky Endpoint Security to any other solution, our customers like mostly the reliability, and the ability to defend against viruses, worms, and attacks. It is easy to use and very light on the end-user machine's resources.

I have been using this solution for approximately 13 years.

Kaspersky has two kinds of support. Our customers have a layer of support. First, they receive support from providers like us and if we are not able to solve their problem, we involve the distributors' technical support. The customer always has the option to open a ticket directly with Kaspersky, bypassing us. If they do not purchase the support from Kaspersky, then it takes a lot of time to solve a very minor issue from the technical support and development. There is a long queue waiting for support. However, if they purchase the support from Kaspersky, then the support is responsive and helpful.

I have used Trend Micro.

This solution is priced lower than some of its competitors. 

Kaspersky has introduced new products and upgraded versions of Endpoint Security. It is a bit complicated these days, especially their licensing. They are promoting customers to purchase the EDR, Endpoint Detection and Response, rather than going for the Endpoint Security only. The EDR requirement for deployment is a little higher, especially for mid-size or small-size companies. The server they require for the EDR or sandboxing is pretty heavy and costly. If they can reduce the price, then it would have been a good cloud solution.

The support from Kaspersky is purchased separately.

I have evaluated Carbon Black and SentinelOne.

They should have a minimum number of solutions available. They used to have only three or four, feature-wise, but now they have probably seven or eight. There are too many options for the client, they get it confused. All the features used to be in one solution, but now they have them all separated. For example, they used to have a DLP, scanning, and patch management in the Endpoint Security, but now they do not. They separated them into other solutions. It would be better for marketing, as well their customers too to combine the features.

I advise my customers that they should compare Kaspersky with other solutions, especially one which is already quickly gaining market ground, especially in this region, in our country, which is Trend Micro. Trend Micro is also very good. They are a comparable competitor against Kaspersky. Being on the neutral side, I give them both options to use, and then they can decide by themselves. However, Trend Micro is actually more expensive than Kaspersky.

I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security an eight out of ten.
