It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues.

One significant difference is the lack of on-site support from Kaspersky. Symantec has a local team in Pakistan with representatives I can contact directly for troubleshooting and support. On the other hand, Kaspersky doesn't provide the same level of local resources. If I have an issue, I need to draft an email and send it to a Kaspersky help center.

The deployment process could be clarified, specifically around the ability to push the security application to clients from the central servers, as we faced issues with this.

What could be improved about Kaspersky TOTAL Security for Business is that many errors appear on the console software, and sometimes I do not know why these errors appear on the console software.
