An affordable hybrid solution for B2B and B2C uses with zero-day threat-detection

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for B2B and B2C use cases.

What is most valuable?

The coverage and zero-day threat-detection are positive, especially in the era of AI-generated malware.

What needs improvement?

Segmentation and centralized manageability could be improved for large organizations.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Avast Business Hub for four to six months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The product is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is suitable for all types of businesses.

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

The product is affordable. It is becoming more complex, with more elements required in the solution.

What other advice do I have?

Avast Business Hub offers a variety of security offerings on a hosted managed basis or as SaaS.

We have to purchase the infrastructure it runs on and acquire licenses for it, which requires months of planning and negotiation. It is targeted more towards retail consumption but can be adapted for small and medium-sized businesses. The content is convenient for businesses, depending on how it is packaged and wrapped.

My recommendation depends on the nature of the business. If it's a strictly security-sensitive organization, I would recommend a more specialized solution, but Avast Business Hub is fine for general-purpose use cases.

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

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Hybrid Cloud
