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.

While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's straightforward to set up."
"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."
"It's not heavy on the system."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness."
"The solution can scale well."
"Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"It has increased productivity. IT threats are kept at a minimum because of this product."
"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 feature I find most valuable is the advance search engine."
"It's very easy to deploy, we don't have any problem or issues. It's most full automatic. It basically takes the assumption that everything is supposed to be a suspect; files, processes, URL accesses, and so on."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that I like the tool's UI, ease of management, ease of making reports, and the ability to export information easily."
"The EDR has a high accuracy rate with only a few false positives."
"Their remote management (RMM) is very good."
"The most valuable feature of Panda Security Adaptive Defense is we don't have to have dedicated infrastructure on-premise because it is cloud-based."
"It prevents our users from circumventing security. Everything is password protected so they can't get into it. They can't uninstall it. They can't do anything."
"Adaptive Defense is pretty easy to use, and Panda support is excellent."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection would be improved with more frequent updates."
"It could download faster during deployment."
"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."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"Occasionally, we suffer from little bugs that give us the wrong message."
"For some urgent updates, I don't like the need for the tool to be frequently restarted."
"The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution."
"Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
"The gap between the two final conclusions is a problem, whether or not a file is known to be malware or is known to be safe."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense is stable. However, when updates are being done on the computers we can experience some troubles because the computers need to be restarted. When we start the computers they are not functioning correctly and we have not received proper feedback regarding this random issue."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I am using the free version of Avast."
"If you become a partner, you will receive the wholesale price."
"There are no costs other than licensing."

"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
