Pros

"There are some great features in ESET Endpoint Antivirus when you are browsing on the internet. For example, they have a notification if within your LAN network something is suspected to be a threat. Additionally, the malware features are very good."
"The administration is its most valuable feature as I can see all versions in one place."
"The pricing is good."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the ease of use."
"The inspection feature allows complete monitoring"
"Installing and integrating ESET Endpoint Antivirus was easy. It prevents worms, malware, and Trojans."
"This solution has a traditional antivirus, I believe that signature-based detection is most valuable."
"The most valuable thing for me is that when I'm using the internet and I reach some site that isn't so secure, or isn't recommended because they don't have a good reputation, ESET will notify me."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"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."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The convenience has been great."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
"The solution is stable."
 

Cons

"The software has room for improvement in terms of CPU and other resource usage."
"The problem was that it didn't support Windows 7."
"The solution can improve the modules, and it is lacking centralized management and visibility of the endpoints."
"The solution could have a more user-friendly interface."
"It seems to have some issues with updates. When you do updates, it sometimes requests for a reboot, and even when you do the reboot, it still says that you need to reboot. Currently, on my computer, it says that a new ESET Endpoint Antivirus has been installed, and I need to restart the computer for the changes to take effect, but I've already done that, and the same message is still there, which is a little annoying. It should have a feature similar to the Intercept X feature in Sophos."
"The detection could be better in ESET Endpoint Security. Sometimes it takes time to detect threats and might be because it's not holding all the memory. There are some features that have to mature. More features might be available in the higher-end product."
"ESET Endpoint Security could improve EDR integration."
"There are some complexities if you want to manipulate the software."
"User management could be improved."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The interface is slow."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of the solution is very good compared to other solutions."
"ESET is cheap."
"The cost of the solution is hard to justify even if the EDR operates well."
"Pricing of ESET Endpoint Security is within the market pricing."
"As is the general rule with anything, the solution could be cheaper."
"For 200 or so users, it might cost around $10,000 or so. That is for a first-time purchase. A renewal may come in at $7,000 to $8,000, or around 20% to 30% less. This is a rough estimate of what to expect."
"I rate the product's price as seven or eight on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Pricing for ESET Endpoint Security could be lower because here in Hungary, it's expensive."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
