Stable, good for malware detection and prevention
I use it for general endpoint protection and the usual stuff like malware detection and prevention It secures my environment.  One thing that could be easier is initiating scans. If I want to scan an extra drive, it should be more straightforward. It's a bit clunky. I have been using it for…

World-class support and highly effective for application control and elevation
Their product is solid. I have a hard time complaining much about it because when we do find little things, they are usually interface-related or related to things that would be nice to have. Their idea portal, unlike so many other vendors we deal with, shows movement. At least four to eight features of ThreatLocker exist because I made a request in the last five years, and it became a feature of the actual product. When it comes to improvements, we moved the product as customers, and we got to move the product by making suggestions. They seem to be very reactive to it, so there is not a whole lot that they actively need to change right now. It is one of those situations where when we run into something that would be nice to have, it happens. They make it work.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It secures my environment."
"We use it most heavily for elevation control, blocking and giving rights only to certain people or devices, and not allowing the rest to access the software. Elevation control has been second to none for me."
"The time saved from dealing with ransomware nonsense is invaluable."
"While it can be frustrating at times, we appreciate the low-level security provided by the application whitelist."
"The pre-built policies and the fact that I get notified when a user requests an application are significant."
"The control list is the best feature. For our company, it provides value to our customers since they can see we are improving our security."
"ThreatLocker Zero Trust Endpoint Protection Platform's ability to block access to unauthorized applications has been excellent."
"The application control is highly valued by me."
"The application control is a key feature of ThreatLocker."
 

Cons

"One thing that could be easier is initiating scans."
"The support could be quicker."
"It has not helped reduce our help desk tickets. We are still in learning mode, and after we are fully knowledgeable, we will be able to see some ticket reductions."
"From my point of view, logging could be improved. Logging should be easier."
"I find that the learning mode is too accessible. Technicians sometimes default to it instead of manually building policy controls."
"More visibility in the built-ins would be nice."
"Some reporting areas need improvement."
"From my point of view, logging could be improved. Logging should be easier."
"ThreatLocker Allowlisting needs to improve its user interface and overall workflow."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The pricing is fair and there is no hard sell."
"Considering what this product does, ThreatLocker is very well-priced, if not too nicely priced for the customer."
"I can't complain. Cheaper would always be nice, but I think it's reasonable compared to other software in the cybersecurity market."
"We have not had any real issues with the pricing. As they have added more features, due to the way our contracts are structured with our customers, we have had to hold off on adopting the new features because they do add costs."
"The price of ThreatLocker Allowlisting is reasonable in the market, but it is not fantastic."
"The pricing is reasonable and normal. I do not have any problems with the cost."
"I find ThreatLocker's pricing to be reasonable for the services it provides."
"We have encountered a few challenges regarding pricing, contract renewals, and additions. As we explored adding features like Cyber Hero, it proved to be an increased expense for our clients. This was primarily a mistake on our part due to how we initially priced it to clients."
