There are some "weak points" that have to be mentioned, including: 1) If the IT department is used to "cloning" endpoints (making images) you are going to have a hard time trying to install the product and you are going to end up reading a lot of Check Point documents. 2) If you are used to the granularity of roles features in Check Point Quantums products you are going to be a little bit disappointed. You can't set customized roles with customized read/write permissions. 3) You need a mature security team to manage this solution in order to get the most value from it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Deploying new versions of the endpoint are easy."
"It offers complete endpoint protection for all assets."
"The most valuable feature of Check Point Harmony Endpoint is it can be used for all kinds of endpoints, including mobile phones."
"The end-user facilities for managing the tool are good."
"The product has an easy-to-use EDR module based on signature-based antivirus detection. It is a complete software."

"The performance for Kaspersky is good, and it's not impacted our client performance."
"We have a central console and from there you can monitor all workstations via an agent."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
"Has great behavior detection and a very good firmware scanner."
"Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is an effective protection solution."
 

Cons

"The solution needs better reports and centralized logs."
"It would be ideal if they had a migration tool of some sort."
"The endpoint might consume excessive resources from the machine, which can impact its performance."
"The network monitoring features must be improved."
"It needs to include built-in deployment. This will make the job easier rather than having to go and dig up an Active Directory deployment along with policy objects."
"They should provide bandwidth regulation, so we can monitor and regulate bandwidth."
"Support needs improvement."
"One area of this product that has room for improvement is the disc encryption."
"There's room for improvement in customer service and support. The response time when I open a ticket or communicate with the vendor could be faster."

"The issue with Kaspersky EDR is the sandbox. I'd like to have the ability to manage it on the cloud as well."

"It is not easy to follow the kill chain of a potential infection or malware."
"I would like better integration with other products."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert needs to include a traffic interface."
"I would say that Kaspersky is not too big in the cloud-related area."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
