Effective threat predictions, simple to deploy, and light on resources

Malwarebytes's initial setup is simple. It is easy to deploy and configure the policies and the configuration. I deployed Malwarebytes for one customer and I did it in under two days. They had approximately 50 users, it took approximately an hour. The steps I took for the implementation were downloading the Malwarebytes management console from the site, installing it, then running the discovery tool, scanning my network, and checking all of the PCs on my network. It's already pre-configured, you don't need to configure anything. The only configuration that I did on the administration console was some of the exclusion from the scan. This is the only rule that I have created. I rate the initial setup of Malwarebytes a ten out of ten.

A tool that offers good UI and documentation

Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

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 features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."

"The protection is really good with Malwarebytes. It's also user friendly and quite easy to set up."

"The most valuable feature is that it stops malware, which is important."

"It is intuitive and easy to use. For the most part, it does a good job of catching things. It is good at stopping stuff. I did a couple of tests with a password cracker. I tried to load that on, and Malwarebytes didn't let me do that, which was pretty good. It has a rollback feature that I haven't seen with any other company. If one of your endpoints are hit with mass ransomware, you could actually roll it back. I watched a demo of them do that, and it was pretty sweet."

"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."

"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."

"The installation process is very easy, especially since it is on the cloud."

"It allows us to have better knowledge of the way people use the tool and how we can improve their workflows."

More Malwarebytes Teams pros

"Speed"

"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."

"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."

"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."

"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."

"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."

"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."

"Auto-Remediation"

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

Cons

"The stability and performance of the solution are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."

"Requires increased efficiency in terms of detecting false positives."

"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."

"It's not good in search hunting."

"Malwarebytes is not there in the reports from Gartner or IDC...If we look at the market trends and the industry, most customers look at Gartner's reports to identify whether a product is a leader, challenger, or a big product, depending on which they choose."

"This solution reports far too many false positives!"

"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."

"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."

More Malwarebytes Teams cons

"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."

"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."

"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."

"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."

"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."

"Webroot is very reactionary. It waits until the threat is active within memory to try and detect it. They need better pre-execution detection and prevention."

"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."

"It is really expensive. We've got between 30 and 40 licenses every year, and for the number of licenses that we have, we're finding that Malwarebytes on average costs between $900 and $1,000 more per year than comparable options. We're paying about $3,300 per year for these licenses. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."

"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."

"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."

"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."

"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."

More Malwarebytes Teams pricing and cost advice

"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."

"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."

"The pricing is high."

"The solution is very cost-effective."

"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."

"Work on a price tier plan."

"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."

"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."

Questions from the Community

What do you like most about Malwarebytes?

Ten times a day, improved signatures will be downloaded, so it is very up-to-date in terms of malware experience.

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Malwarebytes?

I really hate the automatic rebilling without officially confirming it with me. It's an annoyance and they should at least confirm with me, like a month before they bill me.

What needs improvement with Malwarebytes?

It takes up too much space when it's trying to run in the background.

What do you like most about Webroot Business Endpoint Protection?

I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution.

What is your experience regarding pricing and costs for Webroot Business Endpoint Protection?

Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is probably on the cheaper side, so I would rate their pricing a one or a two out of ten.

What needs improvement with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection?

Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats. It does not do what it's advertised to do. Real-time threat detection also doesn't work as it should.
