Cloud-based protection has simplified daily client support and keeps threats under control
The problems that we are facing with policy adoption include slow adoption, as it takes more than five minutes to adopt policy on client computers. ESET Network Attack Protection sometimes helps in reducing network-level intrusions, but sometimes it prevents local devices on the network, which are well-known and good devices, from being recognized, treating them as a threat. So it requires more administration than usual. ESET could implement a good solution for remote support in ESET Endpoint Protection Platform for improvement in the future. Since you have the cloud console, ESET could have something similar to AnyDesk or TeamViewer, but from ESET.

Lockdown devices and ports on endpoints so that you can stop propagation of any virus if it's detected but performance utilization can be better
It's scalable in the form of it now covers mobile devices as well as a number of other different types of devices, not just Windows. Also, there's no limit as to how many devices you can install it on. We plan to expand the number of devices/users as we get more people onboard or upgrade to more mobile devices; we will then increase the number of licenses for mobile devices. We've got 450 licenses, but we've got about 375 devices and users currently. I would rate the scalability a ten out of ten. There's not a product yet that I've found that I can't put it on, especially now that they've got the new release, which was the mobile agents.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The licensing is very flexible; it can be per month, per year, or licensed over several years, and we find it to be generally affordable."
"I like the integration; it lets you see the product installed on a particular computer."
"Installing and integrating ESET Endpoint Antivirus was easy; it is light, easy to install, easy to integrate, and prevents worms, malware, and Trojans."
"ESET Smart Security protects your computer against real world threats and malware attacks and provides added security layer with spam filtering, firewall and parental control."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and maintain while also being fully encrypted."
"We have pretty good detection, at least I feel that we don't have any major infections — we love it."
"ESET is a more reasonably priced solution for us."
"Once the initial setup and configuration is complete, you just have to sit back and monitor."
"The automated response capability in SentinelOne enhances security operations. It means I don't have to worry about having too many security people watching it because you can automate a lot of the tasks."
 

Cons

"The product’s AI implementation feature could be better for learning user behavior."
"The speed of response of technical support could be faster."
"They should have better support for different languages and auto-upgrading."
"The update process can be improved, and there could be an automatic update process when a new version comes out. For system updates or program updates, there could be more automation."
"The solution’s console management and scalability should be improved."
"In terms of areas for improvement, I didn't see any from ESET Endpoint Security because what's important is that it works as an antivirus solution. I do find its pricing expensive here in Hungary, so if the price could be lower, that would be good. ESET Endpoint Security is an antivirus, so it only needs to stop the virus. If it had other features, I wouldn't need it. Every program or solution has specific functions and in this case, ESET Endpoint Security is worth it as an antivirus, though in the next release of the solution, it would be better if there's some improvement in its antivirus database."
"They need to improve licensing for VMs. When ESET is uninstalled from a VM, the seat stays on the license management server. We have to manually delete the seat from that server because it doesn't know how to handle it. I contacted exclusive ESET support here in Croatia and they told me there is no solution for this yet."
"ESET's updates are mostly manual. That's my biggest concern."
"The performance utilization on the device that it's monitoring. This aspect needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is annually, and the price is low compared to competitors."
"The price of the solution is reasonable compared to the other products out there. It is definitely in line with the competition."
"The price of ESET Endpoint Antivirus is fair compared to the performance of other solutions."
"It's a cost-effective product"
"The pricing can be a bit more flexible."
"At first, we thought it was a bit expensive, but we negotiated a better price."
"The price could be a little lower."
"The price could be lower, but it's comparable, as other solutions have a similar price for the same effect."
"I would rate the pricing a three out of ten; one is very expensive, and ten is an absolutely cheap product."
