Ashford Asante - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool with an easy initial setup phase that can be centrally managed by users
What needs to be improved is what my company sends to Kaspersky's team when we are working with it, and then they work on it, which is why we always have updates to take care of the bugs and all those things. You can't have one thing in the solution that needs to be improved. The solution is affordable. For the solution itself, while you are working with it, you come across stuff, that Kaspersky's network helps you deal with since you can send your stuff to Kaspersky's team, and they have access to certain reports, and based on the reports and what what are we doing, the solution is always worked on, so that it can be made the best and efficient application. On a daily basis, the tool is being improved, and I am okay with it. Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Select is automated. The cloud application for Kaspersky is automated. For the solution needed for individual systems, Kaspersky provides you with a platform that provides internet security. With Kaspersky, you have a platform that allows you to access www.kaspersky.com and see the systems that you have worked on in the past. If you need to do anything with your individual machines indirectly, you can manage it through a centralized system. The solution's automation capabilities is an area where certain improvements are required.

Ágoston DEIM - PeerSpot reviewer
Works wonderfully to defend endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts
It would be much easier if the solution added the allowed USB for pen drives and USB drives. You can import an Excel CSV file with 500 devices, but it will be allowed globally. That would be helpful if you want to allow it only in one policy. If you want to enable these pen drives only for one group or an organization's security group, you have to add them manually one by one. That could be easier. It's a user experience, but you can add not just the serial but also the vendor. If you only have a Kingston pen drive, you can say that you want to allow all Kingston, or you can add the model number. If you know that you have a specific model of the Kingston pen drive, you can just allow Kingston and that model. The serial number is not important. You will not filter by serial number. However, if you want to filter by serial number and add only the given devices with the serial number, you have to add them one by one. You have to do this if you don't want to allow them globally. It's enough if you know that you bought a Kingston pen drive and you just put in that you want to allow the Kingston and the model number. Then, all pen drives of the given model will be allowed for a given security group on a given number of computers. In that case, you can attach only pen drives and no external hard drives from Kingston. That could be fast. If you want to add a given serial number, you add it one by one for a specific group. If you want to allow them globally, you say that everybody can use the pen drive on every computer. You can do it from a CSV. Let's say the CSV imports for security groups only and not company-wide. I think this is the more punctual way. If you want to allow it only for the security group or Active Directory group of users, you must manually edit it to limit the serial numbers. The solution's user experience regarding device control could be more friendly or straightforward.

More Kaspersky Total Security pros
"The behavior analytics feature is very useful, and its threat detection based on AI is very strong."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Apex One is the response time and detection module."
"Before Apex One, we used OfficeScan, which Trend Micro acquired, but it was on-prem. We were managing three or four anti-virus solutions. Apex One's cloud model allowed us to decommission the on-prem servers and consolidate. We get all the same features, and everything is upgraded automatically, so we only need to use the software."
"I have found it beneficial when I update a policy it is implemented within a few seconds and the blocking of USB storage function."
"Stability is okay."
"I am impressed with the product's antivirus and malware application control."
"I think this is the best solution in the category of endpoint protection, it's really excellent. It's better than McAfee."
"I like One Endpoint Security. We can manage all the Trend Micro products from one console."

"There is room for improving security."
"Kaspersky Total Security is an expensive solution, and its pricing could be improved."
"Kaspersky Total Security should be easier to manage and improve user interaction. Resetting often requires some experience, which can be a problem for generic users. Web users also encounter some issues that should be improved."
"The system can be demanding on resources, making devices busy when running the client application. It would be beneficial if the resource usage could be reduced to lessen the burden on devices."
"Kaspersky Total Security’s stability and performance need improvement."
"The stability could be improved."
More Kaspersky Total Security cons
"The application and web controls have room for improvement."
"I would suggest making the on-prem and cloud versions easier to manage via Apex One Central, a centralized management platform for customers and agents."
"Could channel video more efficiently."
"In the next release, I would like to see IBS included in OfficeScan."
"Some of our customers need to add cache file signatures in Trend Micro Apex One, but it is currently not a supported feature."
"This software could affect the performance of your device negatively, particularly causing slow performance after installation."
"While the single console offers partial end-to-end visibility into our IT security environment, we leverage additional solutions to achieve comprehensive coverage, so this area can be improved by Apex One."
"I don't give it a perfect 10 because of the Active Directory integration. It would make things easier if the Active Directory were integrated more seamlessly."
