Have maintained strong endpoint protection through behavioral analysis and daily monitoring
I previously mentioned that Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business doesn't have built-in DLP, which was a concern. I think they could add it in the future; however, antivirus cannot provide a proper DLP solution, but they can offer a mix of DLP, similar to Trend Micro Apex One, which provides some sort of DLP file management. Nonetheless, we need a proper DLP solution such as Forcepoint or Symantec, whichever suits us. We'll be conducting performance evaluation in the next quarter while working on other projects. More value means a better GUI, user interface, and comprehensive reporting capabilities. In Sophos, we receive a daily system-generated report about what is happening, plus an alert system. The reporting system in Trend Micro is also excellent; I receive an email every day at 10:00 AM with a report for the last 24 hours.

Enhanced mobile security with visibility into app and website usage, but installation challenges remain
We use Lookout for mobile devices, such as phones It has reduced our risk around mobile devices. I like the security features and being able to see what apps and websites people are using. There is nothing we have come across that we've desired. We have been using Lookout for one year. The…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature is the central view. With this view, I can see all of the data."
"Overall, the product is quite flexible."
"It has many features, like deploying a package to many clients, an MDM solution, etc."
"find some of the most valuable features to be the anti-malware, encryption, and the EDR launching service."
"We swtiched to Kaspersky Endpoint Security because we found our previous solution did not meet our requirements."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very powerful tool for us. We use a lot of third-party software that integrates well with the solution."
"The blocking feature is the most valuable feature."
"It is very efficient. I like its simplicity."
"The protection offered by the product is the most valuable feature. It detects vulnerabilities or traps on our users' phones and then prompts them to clean up their devices. Tools we used previously would only discover, which required us to gather information on the backend, so Lookout is a welcome upgrade."
"We have not had any issues with bugs or breakdowns."
"The most valuable features are the antivirus as a whole, the anti-malware, and all of the protection features that scan our enterprise devices."
 

Cons

"We would like to see improved performance and faster deployment in the next release."
"It would be beneficial to have more robust cloud management capabilities for Endpoint."
"The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue."
"We would like to know where attacks are coming from."
"The encryption feature could improve."
"The performance level could be better."
"It's grown more expensive and customers are not happy about it."
"It would be ideal with the solution offered more documentation."
"We just submitted an enhancement request reflecting the main area we want to see improvement in; the APIs. Currently, we're able to build dashboards, but it's somewhat backward because we use our MDM API to create them. Lookout should provide API to customers so we can query our data and use it in our cloud, and this is the only outstanding area for improvement with the product right now."
"From the analysis that we've done, they do seem to be maybe a step behind in trying to enter the market with a new solution. But when they do pick up, they do come out with some good products."
"The initial setup requires a little bit of experience with configuration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It would be beneficial if the price could be reduced, and improved management of the license allocation for adding additional Endpoint users would be advantageous."
"The tool is expensive."
"The price is reasonable. We evaluated some other vendors, but Kaspersky charges less and offers more."
"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"It is a cost-effective endpoint security service."
"Pricing is very competitive and licensing is very much ethical."
"The cost of the solution is approximately $31,000 for three years."
"There is an annual license required to use Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business."
"The pricing is fair; it's comparable to our previous solution, and we carried out multiple POCs and POVs (proof of value). The product is worth the money we pay for it."
"Lookout is definitely on the lower end when it comes to price point and that seems to be the only differentiator. The technology is in place in this space and it's really about who is coming in at the better price point now."
