Has a free version, is secure and reliable
I'm a consultant. I recommend free Avast, then ESET. If they want to be more secure, you can go to ESET, the bigger license. If you want to have a cheap license, Avast is good. I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. I do prefer ESET, however. Yet I would recommend either product as they are both pretty good.

Addressed complex learning curve yet has improved automated routing and cloud security visibility
Cloud Security Connector for Zscaler offers multiple features, but the major feature I love specifically is automated Zscaler node detection, which helps detect any kind of problem first. Additionally, it is available all the time, providing high availability routing for seamless failover, which is one of my favorite features. It also provides Layer 4 routed bypass for TCP, UDP, and ICMP traffic, enabling granular traffic control that streamlines our services working with Zscaler. It has provided complete visibility of internal IPs on the Zscaler console, allowing us to monitor and troubleshoot whenever there is a problem, making things transparent and easy for us to monitor. The integration with SIEM or syslog enhances centralized log management for our organization.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use."
"The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation."
"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."
"The solution can scale well."
"It has increased productivity. IT threats are kept at a minimum because of this product."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness."
"The ease of deployment and the command center that they have are the most valuable. It is basically self-monitoring. It doesn't require that much tinkering after you deploy or install."
"The solution is secure."
"It is very useful ............visibility on the end-user,"
"Cloud Security Connector for Zscaler has positively impacted our organization by helping us in our cloud environment to connect our resources to Zscaler, ensuring that security policies are consistent with zero-trust access and increasing reliability by 28%."
 

Cons

"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"Making the price a bit cheaper would be an improvement."
"It could have a 10,000-feet overview of the whole infrastructure because the software is easily installable on the whole infrastructure and not just the infrastructure, but also the workstation themselves. I would love to have a 360 view of the whole network and basically see from where a test is coming, and if there is an instance in the cloud that is actually misbehaving or if there is a workstation that is infected and stuff like that. It can also have some kind of AI to detect all those things and then cut off the connection from that machine. In Cortex, you can link the logs, reports, and all that stuff. You can also see the full picture of when it happened, and you can trace it back all the way to a file or something else. I would like to see similar functionality in Avast Business Endpoint Protection."
"Where I have faced a challenge is on the reporting. I would like to see something that provides information regarding the next month or quarter, in terms of reporting."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection would be improved with more frequent updates."
"The connectivity could be faster."
"If there are any issues at the network level, such as users working from home, then it is very hard to catch up with them and resolve issues on the end-user machine."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no costs other than licensing."
"It is $75 per license for a year. There are no additional costs."
"We are on a monthly subscription for Avast Business Endpoint Protection."
"I am using the free version."
"I am using the free version of Avast."
"If you become a partner, you will receive the wholesale price."
