Stable but bad technical support, and an out of date database
We primarily use the solution to protect our business The solution protects us so that we have regular security from attacks. It prevents disasters from happening on our system. The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature. The database needs improvement. It needs to be…

Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"I like the simplicity of this solution and the fact that it saves us time. The deployment was really straightforward and useful and I am impressed by the anti-virus endpoint detection and response offered by this solution."
"The solution has exchange protection. It has a content control, device control, a firewall, and anti-malware as well. They are all quite valuable features for us."
"The endpoint protection is the solution's most valuable feature."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."
"I find the actual overall endpoint malware protection the most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT."
"One of the best features of the solution is that it's easy to deploy."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"The solution is stable."
"The most valuable features are script blocking and macros within Word documents for stopping unwanted applications from running in the background."
 

Cons

"The database needs improvement. It needs to be updated quite a bit."
"There are blurred lines between anti-virus and endpoint detection so I would say it can be confusing when you are considering buying this program. I would like to see that being explained better to the customer."
"There needs to be better integration with the environment. Especially, for the active directory and also for keeping up with the changes from Microsoft. We use a lot of Microsoft OS. I have noted that sometimes they lag behind Microsoft updates. For example, when with Windows 10. I had some issues with deploying to Windows 10 because the solution was behind in updating their own services to match the Microsoft release."
"The solution should implement AI in the product."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"The user interface is outdated."
"The solution’s technical support could be improved."
"The security scripting needs improvement. It needs deeper security for scripting."
"​It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"The stability could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There's a yearly cost for licensing. For us, that comes to $1,400. There are no additional costs beyond the license itself."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"CylancePROTECT is an affordable solution."
"It is expensive, but not unreasonable."
"Do not get hung up on price. You pay for what you get and expensive will hurt one time, where cheap will hurt forever, especially if you fall victim to a ransom attack, etc.​"
"The initial end-point cost may seem a little high (~$55/device/year) but when you look at the total peace of mind that the solution provides, with no reboots for updates, and negligible performance impact, it is well worth it."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"I think that the price we are paying is good for what it is."
