Featured Reviews

FarkhundAbbas - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides the ability to send detected malware to Kaspersky's sandbox environment for behavioral analysis
Kaspersky's support team is not that much supportive. If we need any help from them, they do not provide a good solution, and it takes too long to resolve the issue. This is the main thing because some cases are easy and need urgent resolution. However, when we create a support ticket, it takes three days to get it planned, and we have urgent requirements. So, the ticketing process needs improvement.
Ahmed El Kayal - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly interface simplifies management while performance issues during scanning need addressing
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is easy to implement and has a user-friendly interface. It stands out as an antivirus and malware protection solution due to its extensive feeds and resources for antivirus signatures. These capabilities enable effective malware protection. Additionally, it offers scalability as any endpoint added to Active Directory can be easily integrated by Kaspersky Security Center. Its straightforward deployment and ease of management are other valuable features. It does not require an advanced engineer to manage, and resources are readily available online, making it accessible and scalable.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It downloads essential security patches that are valuable for my PC."
"The product is integrated with endpoint protection. We don't have to implement a separate technology. It provides visibility over the endpoints."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions is their ability to detect and respond to spam and viruses in their early stages."
"Kaspersky EDR is far superior to other products. It gives detailed information about malware, geolocation, and more. Also, the agent itself is very lightweight compared to other products. The packages and updates were quite small in size, just a few KBs."
"It is a stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"Kaspersky offers more visible and comprehensive features compared to other products."
"It is a secure solution with a lot of IT management features."
"We have a concept of working from home. Most endpoints are not in the domain. It is our first line of defense. While we had Kaspersky deployed, it gave good insight into the upcoming challenge or threat."
"The product is fairly technologically advanced and near the top of the market right now."
"There is excellent integration with the app directory."
"It offers very good security protection."
"The failure rate is very low."
"The product's most valuable features are automation and central administration."
"The setup and implementation are easy."
"We have gained advanced threat protection without investing more into that area."
"The product is quite scalable."
 

Cons

"There are certain shortcomings with the UI of the solution. The UI is not at all user-friendly."
"One of the main areas where the tool could improve is its integration capabilities. For example, I find it challenging to integrate it with other solutions. It would be helpful if the tool could make it more open to integration with other tools."
"The product does not detect zero-day threats."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response needs vast resources on the central node. Not all maintenance tasks are in the GUI, so we often use commands. The lack of documentation for these processes means we frequently reach out to support, open tickets, and run complex CLI commands. It's not the most straightforward process. It should also improve stability."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is expensive. It should improve its stability."
"I want to be able to use the product as a patch management tool for my endpoints since it is an area that is not working effectively for me."
"Kaspersky EDR could be improved by adding network detection capabilities to enhance convenience and security."
"This solution used a lot of memory and GPU; it would be nice if this could be reduced."
"I would like the solution to be able to allow to have end to end security services from the final user to the server."
"When I do a malware scan on my computer it takes a long while. This process could improve in the future. Additionally, the security could improve."
"From time to time, some users loose connection via the Network Agent."
"There are quite a number of areas for improvement. The first area for improvement is that I find this solution to be very resource intensive when you're running a particular task, even a mere scanning task, even though it's running in the background. When you go to inspect the resources you realize it makes the machine very slow. It takes up a lot of resources even though there are no particular scanning tasks scheduled to run. That's one of the issues."
"I'd like Kaspersky to be more stable and secure."
"The solution could be more secure. It's an aspect the company needs to be mindful of."
"This product could be improved by integration with Linux. The one limitation this product has is that it's not compatible with and doesn't offer protection for Linux servers. It could also be easier to configure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The pricing falls within the average range."
"It is cost-effective in terms of services and features compared to other more expensive EDR solutions like CrowdStrike and Trend Micro."
"I would say that their pricing is generally competitive and attractive."
"The tool's pricing was high during the last renewal."
"Yearly payments are to be made toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable."
"The licensing is fine, and it is well within reasonable rates."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten. You need to pay extra costs for additional modules. The product's licensing costs are yearly."
"We pay a yearly annual subscription for this product."
"I've heard from my manager that the solution is expensive."
"It's an affordable security solution."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than other products."
