Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business Reviews

Use cases really depend on how you configure it. It's an endpoint security solution that goes beyond anti-malware and anti-spam. It also includes network protection, vulnerability audits, and other features you might need.

First of all, I like that it's perfect against malware threats and behavior analysis along with signature analysis. That's the key point for me. Another thing I value is the alarm support with EDR active. It helps me root cause issues and detect suspicious behavior.

Most companies aren't familiar with Kaspersky's MDR offering. Everyone's talking about XDR and MDR solutions now, and Kaspersky mainly offers EDR. I believe they should consider more advanced solutions, especially for ransomware protection and similar critical threats. They might have these solutions, but our provider might not be giving us proper insights. Again, it's possible these features exist, but our reseller isn't making us aware. 

In future releases, I would like to see a few things. First, I'd like a centralized view for managing security across a large organization with multiple offices. 

Second, some built-in solutions can alert IT about suspicious behavior before any damage occurs, like applications sending unusual emails or data alerts.

I want to add that performance needs to be considered. Security doesn't require ongoing configuration. My crucial point is whether the solution, with my configuration from six months ago, still provides adequate security. In terms of support,  I was thinking of a managed security service provider because security isn't our primary business, and we lack the necessary skills to manage it ourselves. We rely on others to do it.

We lack the skills and need a third-party provider with expertise. So, we have a third party that can provide managed security services and keep me updated on the latest products and practices. I just need to be confident we're using the best available solution.

I have been using this solution for more than five years now. I've experience with this product but with an advanced license.

It is a stable solution. But there are better solutions, or perhaps upgrades might be better.

It is a highly scalable solution. We are an enterprise business, so we have around a thousand end users. 

I receive support from our reseller at Kaspersky.

I would rate my experience with the initial setup a seven out of ten, with one being difficult and ten being easy.

The deployment process needs an expert, so it takes hours to configure all the features properly. It's not a quick process.

Overall, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten because, again, I might have the best product in the market. But if it's not properly configured, then I'm losing many of these features. I'm not getting the most out of them. And this is actually one of the biggest challenges that we're facing.

We use the solution as an antivirus product. 

The solution is an effective protection tool with easy management. The suite has numerous features that, if purchased separately, would cost us significantly.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a strong yet lightweight tool. It allows us to control machines even when disconnected from the network. In offline mode, we can generate passwords and access the system. The policies it offers are robust.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business needs an easier mechanism for updates. 

I have been working with the product for six years.

My experience with customer support is good. 

Neutral

The tool's installation is easy. You can install it in a week's time. 

The solution's pricing is acceptable. 

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. 

Before using the product, our organization was infected with malware attacks. 

I am impressed with the tool's main dashboard, anti-malware application blocking, DDoS, etc. 

The product needs to incorporate training programs or webinars for users. The solution needs to improve its support as well. It also needs to detect ransomware. 

I have been using the product for six years. 

I would rate the product's stability a seven out of ten. 

I would rate the tool's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has 240 users for the solution. 

I would rate the product's setup an eight out of ten. The deployment can be completed between 10-30 minutes. We required only two staff for the deployment process. 

The solution's deployment was done in-house. 

I would rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten. You need to pay extra costs for additional modules. The product's licensing costs are yearly. 

I would rate the product an eight out of ten. You need to get training before the installation. 

We primarily use the solution as a traditional antivirus for signature-based activities such as malware or infections. It's for employing remediation and prevention detection.

The admin capabilities are great.

I have found the solution to be stable.

The product can scale as needed.

The solution could use better reporting. We'd like to have a bit more than just a dashboard and a few pie charts. 

We're looking at EDRs, and MDRs, and SLRs and stuff like that. If they had integrations with something like a Dark Trace or more native integrations, either through an open API or something, that would probably be ideal for us in terms of the direction we're taking. 

It's an inherited system, so it's been here for more than four years.

The stability is good enough. I haven't had issues with bugs or glitches. I can't recall it crashing or freezing. it's pretty reliable. 

The solution has the capability to scale if you need it to. 

We have about 550 users on the product currently. It's used across most departments, except for a few. 

It was an inherited solution. It was already here when I became employed. Therefore, I can't speak to the implementation process. 

I'm just a customer and an end-user.

In terms of the versions we are using, on the administration side, it's Admin Security Center 13 and on the endpoint side, for the actual work stations and server, it's 11.6.

I would rate the solution at a seven out of ten. Like all endpoint antiviruses, it does a fair job on zero-day attacks. Obviously, with the next-day attacks, it's going to do more. That's where its strengths are.

I would advise new users to stick with the traditional approach of having a business case and a use case and then doing a proof of concept.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security is used to protect from and respond to anything tentatively identified as a virus and ransomware.

Kaspersky protects our company from ransomware attacks. We have multiple sites across the country, including the principal headquarters and different towns. We can see any viruses that are in the network and take action.

I've had some problems with the web interface. For example, when I was running a trace, it's difficult to find this function, but I can see it when I go on the server. So, if I want to implement the EDR functions on the web interface, it's very difficult because the command button or the link doesn't appear. 

I've been using Endpoint Security for about two years.

Kaspersky is generally stable, but I run into problems when I schedule one hour of EDR on my network. The different machines on my network slowed down, so I reduced the scheduled EDR to one or two hours per day. After that, my PC was very fast.

I believe Kaspersky Endpoint Security is scalable. We currently have 600 users. We could possibly increase our usage if the number of users increases.

Kaspersky's support is good. We haven't had any problems. When I had difficulties installing Kaspersky, support texted sent us a fix.

Setting up Kaspersky was difficult. It took about three weeks to deploy because I have 600 PCs. I had a hard time installing the old version of Kaspersky on a PC. And there was a delay in connecting Kaspersky to the new server. We have a team of 10 IT people responsible for managing the solution.

We had help from a reseller. The reseller helped a lot because my PC environment was old, so it was challenging to implement.

The cost of a Kaspersky enterprise license comes out to about $18,000 annually.

I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security eight out of 10. My advice to new Kaspersky users is to have a good PC and a solid network infrastructure. Also, when you have any issues, it's essential to resolve them quickly. I recommend Endpoint Security because it has been good to me. It automatically responds to viruses or ransomware activities, so I don't have to do anything. My biggest lesson from using Kaspersky is realizing the importance of antivirus software on our network.

The solution is primarily used for protection. It's useful for internet accessing and network accessing protection and for flash memory protection from sharing, accessing, and other attacks.

The solution is very stable. It offers very good security protection.

The installation process is straightforward.

The performance is not very good. It's acceptable with the security. That said, the issue is that, when I opened the browser without Kaspersky antivirus, it's open in a few seconds, however, when I installed the antivirus on the laptop or computer and we try to open it, just open the browser, it takes double the amount of time. Without the antivirus, it's opening in four seconds and with the antivirus it's opening in 20 seconds. It's making everything hang.

We've used the solution for about two years at this point. 

The stability of the product is good, and it does offer good protection. However, the performance isn't as good, as it slows systems down.

We have about 25 users on the solution currently. 

We likely will increase usage in the near future.

I've never had to contact technical support. It's so easy I don't need to contact the help desk or technical team of Kaspersky.

Before Kaspersky, I was using ESET. We got a good offer from Kaspersky that had a lower price point and therefore we moved to them. 

The initial setup is not overly complex or difficult. It's very straightforward and very simple. 

It's a server installation. It takes about one or two hours, and the implementation for every user takes minutes as it's around in the background.

For the administration of the solution, we only need one of our technical team members to manage it. For the installation, it takes two people. It might take two or three hours before it's deployed for all of the users.

We can handle the installation ourselves, with our own in-house team.

We pay a yearly licensing fee.

This product costs less than our past solution, ESET.

We're using the latest version of the solution at this time. 

I'd rate the solution at a nine out of ten.

I would recommend the solution to other users and organizations.
