We have approximately 250 end-user accounts with ten servers using this solution. we have a combination of people using the solutions, such as IT specialists, business users, operation staff, marketing personnel, marketing team, compliance officers, finance, and general IT personnel.

Next year, we will look at the number of new users, and what's required for the company. The company is in the process of improving the business, opening more and more branches in Ireland. There are another 30 to 40 users to be added to the package in the future.

How are customer service and support?

The support we are receiving from Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response has been very good.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We were previously using ESET Antivirus and we were having a lot of problems. Since we migrated to Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response we have been protected very well.

How was the initial setup?

Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response has a simple setup. We deployed the solution in approximately one day.

We have a separate server receiving day-to-day, updates and patches. Then we have in Ireland, a branch network where it is connected. We have an agent server that is connected to the main server. From the main server, it pushes the day-to-day update to the particular agent server. From the agent server, it will push to the endpoint user devices.

Reliable, easy to use, and can be scaled up
Pros and Cons
  • "The product is very easy to use."
  • "The solution is expensive."

What is our primary use case?

We primarily use the product as a security solution. We use it to protect the company's inner resources to ensure secure access to endpoints by only authorized users. We make sure only the right person can access the right resource.

What is most valuable?

The product is very easy to use. 

The solution is stable and reliable. 

It can scale well. 

What needs improvement?

The solution is expensive. It would be ideal if they could lower the costs.

I've been using the solution for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This is a stable solution. There aren't bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It is reliable.

This is a scalable product. We can expand it as needed. 

We have around 100 users on the product.

As we increase personnel, we will increase usage. 

How are customer service and support?

Typically, our technical teams deal with issues. I've never dealt with technical support from Kaspersky directly.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We did not use a different solution in the past.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was handled by our technical team. I was not a part of the initial implementation process. 

What about the implementation team?

We had an internal technical team handle the setup. I don't have many details about the process. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

We pay a yearly fee for the licensing of the product. We find it to be expensive, however, we need to use it as we need the security it provides. 

What other advice do I have?

We are using the updated version of the solution, however, I'm not sure which version number we are on. 

I'd recommend the solution to other users. 

I would rate the product eight out of ten. We are happy with its capabilities in general.

Stable, flexible, and well-priced solution
Pros and Cons
  • "Version 14.0 comes with an SQL database, which gives great flexibility on control, reviewing logs, and viewing history."
  • "There are some issues with EDR's web policy blocking sites that are marked as exceptions."

What is our primary use case?

I mainly use EDR to scan publicly-hosted servers and ensure they get automatically segregated upon detection of any threat.

What is most valuable?

Version 14.0 comes with an SQL database, which gives great flexibility on control, reviewing logs, and viewing history.

What needs improvement?

There are some issues with EDR's web policy blocking sites that are marked as exceptions. Also, recently, some policies have been getting disabled automatically. In the next release, EDR should include a web plugin.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using EDR for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We haven't had any issues with EDR's stability and have had full uptime over the last two years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

EDR is scalable - we've used it for 500 workstations.

How are customer service and support?

Kaspersky have stopped providing free support, and their default support is only available on weekdays.

How was the initial setup?

If you have all the installers downloaded and prerequisites ready, EDR can be deployed within an hour or two.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

EDR is priced on the cheaper side. Licensing for EDR is available on a yearly basis for around 80 SAR a year.

What other advice do I have?

EDR is a very good tool that can be used for a large user base without lag. I would rate EDR eight out of ten.

Great for high-end security but end-user documentation needs improvement
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution provides high-end security that is critical for financial institutions and bankers."
  • "Documentation needs to be simplified and improved so that it provides good product awareness for end users."

What is our primary use case?

Our company uses the solution to provide security protection for clients in higher education and in the Ethiopian financial industry such as bankers and microfinance. 

What is most valuable?

The solution provides high-end security that is critical for financial institutions and bankers. 

The interface is intuitive with no issues. 

What needs improvement?

Documentation needs to be simplified and improved so that it provides good product awareness for end users like the documentation provided by CheckPoint. 

Vouchers and training should be offered to enhance the solution's reachability. Certification exams should be accessible and priced reasonably. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using the solution for one year. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. 

How are customer service and support?

Technical support is good and provides well-documented materials. 

How was the initial setup?

The setup and installation are not complicated. 

What about the implementation team?

Our company implements the solution for customers. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The solution is expensive in comparison to CheckPoint and Fortinet. 

Our company purchased a three-year license that included a warranty and technical support. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Our company is moving to CheckPoint because we are the only premium partners in East Africa so that increases our market value.

We also like FortiEDR for endpoint securities. 

What other advice do I have?

I recommend trying the solution because of its security sensitivities. 

I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

Easy to manage, simple to set up, and expands well
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution is scalable."
  • "I would like better integration with other products."

What is our primary use case?

Clients are using this product to protect their desktops and laptops and to respond adequately when some vulnerabilities are detected as exploited.

What is most valuable?

We like the automated change of policies, given some scenarios. It is wonderful. You can rely upon your automated policies being activated if you need to. If you are under attack, or maybe some ransomware is spreading across your network, and you want your endpoints to become more secure given that threat, you get good protection. It's maybe the most important feature of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response.

It's easy to set up. 

The solution is scalable.

It's easy to manage and monitor the endpoints. 

What needs improvement?

I would like better integration with other products. For example, I would like to have another view in SolarWinds or Datadog. Integration is not easy. I'd like it to be simplified. 

We do not need any additional features. 

The business plan maybe could be improved. They need to change the way they sell the product. They could be better friends with their partners. A partner is not somebody who sells this product. It is usually somebody who manages this product for the end user or the end company that is predicting the assets. The role that a partner plays in this interaction is very important. They need to work to build that relationship to benefit the solution and the client. They should also offer better margins.

For how long have I used the solution?

We've been dealing with the solution since 2019. It's been around three years. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

It is a very stable solution. The most important thing about stability is not if the product runs or stops running, it is the time window you need to be prepared for new threats. They offer good protection, which makes the product very stable. Kaspersky's usually the first in distributing the indicators of compromise of the newest threats.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution can scale well.  It is easy to deploy and manage a large number of endpoints running just a few tasks. You are very aware of what is happening with the threats in your institution. There's a lot of visibility.

How are customer service and support?

Technical support can be improved. When you need support, when you call for support, and you present the evidence in a ticket, they always come back with more questions. They ask you for more evidence, and you have to go and collect it. You get to a point where you want to say, "Oh, just forget it, I don't need more support from you. You always ask me for more, more, more data." 

I would like to see a solution. I don't want to do all of this legwork and not get any help. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

How was the initial setup?

The console is very easy. The deployment is easy as well. If you have an active directory or something like that, or if you have previously installed the Kaspersky network agent, it's quite simple. If not, even if you don't have any of those, maybe if you have some software policy to deploy over your assets, it should also be easy. Otherwise, you have to go endpoint by endpoint running the agents. That can take time.

The maintenance is pretty straightforward. If I have 5,000 endpoints, I need one engineer to handle the console installation for, maybe a week's worth of work. The endpoints could take two or three people to deploy in the company. If you can centralize the deployment, it will only take two or three days for one engineer to handle the setup.

What was our ROI?

I don't have any details in regard to ROI. 

What other advice do I have?

We are a partner of Kaspersky.

We always work with the latest version of the solution.

It's a wonderful product if you have a proper partner to handle it. If you let the product run by itself, by itself, it won't protect you. You need someone on this product with a hand on it every day, checking policies and seeing how it works. That's the only way to be protected from threats.

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten.
