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.

It's easy to use and set up, but I've faced performance problems
I have experience with Quad9 and most other filtering solutions. Quad9 was working well initially, but it started slowing, so I switched to OpenDNS. I recently checked Tom's Hardware, an IT review site, and read a review of seven DNS filters. Open DNS was ranked the fastest, and Quad9 was second. Google was on there too, but they said it didn't filter enough.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's not heavy on the system."
"The solution is quite stable and straightforward."
"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 Business Endpoint Protection's best feature is its user-friendliness."
"Avast as a product is as easy as it gets - everything is outlined and transparent in terms of licensing."
"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 can scale well."
"The performance of the solution has been great overall."
"Setting up Quad9 is straightforward if you know what you're doing, and it's easy to use overall."

Cons

"Avast Business Endpoint Protection would be improved with more frequent updates."
"It reduces network and bandwidth speed."
"The solution needs to be more secure and work to protect us better from people trying to mess with our systems."
"It could download faster during deployment."
"The accuracy of the scanner could be improved. Sometimes, it can turn a good file into a suspicious file."
"It should have proper and timely updates to deal with new viruses as they come onto the market."
"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."
"It used to work fine for all the devices, but it started to slow and become non-responsive. I would have to reload the page two or three times before all the pages loaded. With OpenDNS, I only need to load the page once."
"Quad9 could improve by having more free features, such as custom DNS filtering."
