An affordable tool that is easy to learn
The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seqrite developed a feature that can help restore deleted data. If there is a ransomware attack, our company can restore the data as Seqrite keeps a copy in an encrypted and complex format. If there is any ransomware attack, our company can restore the data. If the data is deleted by any of the users in our company, and if we want to recover it, then it can be done through the process that the tool uses to restore data during a ransomware attack. There is a command through which users can recover the data from the laptop.

Management becomes easier with minimal complications, but improvement in support tools needed
Regarding areas of improvement for Symantec Endpoint Security, there are many changes, and the support portal tool is complicated compared to other tools. When trying to get service from Symantec, the process is complex. I'm not sure whether it's because of my project or something else. Though it is easy to manage, easy to get, easy to install, and works efficiently for managing policies, we faced a significant disadvantage. We wanted to add multiple hashes because of numerous new alerts coming, but we could only add them one by one, which is a considerable disadvantage in Symantec.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
"It's a single-agent installation with many features including wireless protection."
"Some of the most valuable features were antivirus, malware, and spyware. They were really good."
"It's a robust product."
"The product blocks computer viruses."
"I like the intrusion prevention and Sonar features."
"It is very easy to use and keeps us secure."
"Its response time is the most valuable. It is very quick."
 

Cons

"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution should have more integration with other platforms."
"There could be definition updates installed and running for the product, similar to new EDR solutions that receive updates from the internet."
"The solution's reporting could be improved."
"We must have complete dissolution with advance care protection but we are finding out that we need more Symantec technical specialists. We have identified a need to hire at least one more technical specialist familiar with Symantec to improve our solutions capabilities."
"Since the division of the company, we have experienced a lack of support."
"Must push to EXE files to the endpoints."
"They provide the updates of the client, and those clients need a reboot after the upgrade, which is something we don't like. We don't like to reboot the server after the upgrade because we have live applications. If we do a reboot, it can impact the business as well."
"The Centralized Management could be improved."
