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.

Great notifications, a wide variety of features, and excellent monitoring capabilities
It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop. It's nice to be able to do things remotely using my phone; however, in many cases, it would be very helpful to be able to do things from a desktop or laptop computer. This would be especially useful for things like remote access to computers. It's too hard to do much on a Windows computer using a tiny phone screen. Being able to do things from a desktop or laptop computer would be much more productive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The performance is good compared to other products that slow down the laptop, post-installation."
"As a free product, it is top of its class, with this solution installed I am not concerned about threats to my PC."
"Avast Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness."
"The protection is very good."
"Our time to response to malware is now at the lowest percentage possible."
"Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"It warns you if there is a threat and it's perfect because it runs in the background and doesn't interfere with anything."
"Previously, we were working with Norton, and we switched from Norton to Avast because we believe Avast is far superior and a better solution, especially for PC management."
"It has been very helpful to get notifications about various issues with my servers and network to help me take action to resolve problems before they become major issues."
"They provide a lot of features; it's good and easy software."
"The setup is simple."
"It has made life a lot easier for the administrators."
"It gives you remote control and has a mobile app."
"One of the applications I have used the most was to troubleshoot users and I've never faced difficulties or issues with the application itself."
"We like the patching of the window updates in the client's systems. You can automatically do updates with a single click."
"So this solution allows for 24/7 support and is very handy."
 

Cons

"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"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."
"I would like to see better protection and more spyware included with the free version."
"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 workstations themselves."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"The solution could improve by providing more security."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"Sometimes the speed is a problem. When I've been remote controlling people, from time to time, there were some issues with people in Hong Kong."
"They have good technical support but it's not excellent."
"There are some bugs or glitches."
"It would be nice if it also had a desktop application, similar to the phone app, which would allow me to monitor and control computers from my desktop."
"Remote Desktop Assistance for Mac endpoints - not having this functionality is a major inconvenience in having to have two systems for clients using this platform."
"GUI needs to be improved and the solution lacks a process for monitoring VOIP calls."
"Support needs to be improved because we've sometimes had to wait 24 hours to get a response."
"However, the solution does not allow you to make a script for just one customer, so it would be great if that is improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are no costs other than licensing."
"It is $75 per license for a year. There are no additional costs."
"I am using the free version of Avast."
"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."
