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 to be able to power up a device and wipe the data remotely."
"One of the features I found very nice in Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is that it's good at scanning and fixing issues on its own. The solution is very good at finding a lot of applications and notifying you about systems that have issues. Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile can run headless without having to report back which I found very nice about it. I also like that the solution would create alerts when a certain amount of time lapsed for systems, and it would recommend going through and scanning the systems. As an actual endpoint protection product, Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is good."
"The biggest advantage it has is the VPN product that is incorporated into the solution."
"Integration is good. You can integrate them with an off-brand endpoint solution. It has quite a few integration features you can use."
"There is no issue with the stability of Endpoint."
"The user interface is good. Managing and monitoring tools are also good."
"One of the features I found very nice in Symantec Endpoint Protection Mobile is that it's good at scanning and fixing issues on its own."

"Look at other options but ultimately, this solution offers possibly one of the best solutions out there."

"It would be nice to have more flexibility regarding deployment."
"I'm not sure if there's anything lacking; I personally don't use the solution too much, so I'd have to look at it a bit and do some more research. I'm more on the operation side of things."
