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.

Good customers support and offers good inventory management
It maintains our security posture I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention. It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues. I have experience with this solution.  I have contacted the support team. They are good…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."
"Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"The solution can scale well."
"It's straightforward to set up."
"Our favorite feature is the PC Patch Management."
"The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation."
"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."
"It's not heavy on the system."
"Kaspersky offers a large number of robust default policies, such as USB blockage. I really like this feature."
"Kaspersky TOTAL Security for Business provides central management for protection of devices, mitigating attacks effectively."
"I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"It could download faster during deployment."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"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."
"Making the price a bit cheaper would be an improvement."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"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."
"It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

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