Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It can scale as well."
"This solution has a traditional antivirus, I believe that signature-based detection is most valuable."
"The product does not slow down the machine."
"It's scalable."
"The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are the search engine, easy firewall setup, and ransomware scans."
"ESET has regular updates, and it gives me good feedback. It's not too onerous like some of the products I've used in the past."
"The tool protects everything."
"The performance of the solution is very good it does not impact my hardware and is user-friendly."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The solution is stable."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
 

Cons

"ESET's updates are mostly manual. That's my biggest concern. I'd like it to be more automatic. I've had to download the new version and run it manually to install it. I've got several workstations like that right now."
"Everything has some kind of room for improvement."
"The solution is not ideal for use in large enterprises"
"We are looking to move towards an EDR solution rather than EPP. EDR is a solution that can dynamically detect threats based on the process behavior. It would be better if this solution was an EDR and an EPP solution, this would increase security protection."
"I saw a bunch of false positives which need to be fixed."
"They should have better support for different languages and auto-upgrading."
"We have experienced some problems with the actualization of some endpoints. We then have to manually reinstall the version on these endpoints."
"They can improve ransomware protection, and there should be cloud sandboxing for Mac."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"The interface is slow."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
