Featured Reviews

Chuck_Mackey - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides comprehensive visibility and protection, helps in identifying the gaps in security, and comes with excellent onboarding support
In a couple of instances, we had a little bit of trouble in getting it distributed throughout the organization. We ultimately managed to do it, but they talk about it being a pretty simple process, and it became a little laborious. It would just turn away. The agents were not being distributed. It was just churning and churning and churning. When we were looking for specific categories of data, it was getting bogged down, but that was not even so much Code42, although some of it was their issue. It really has to do with the overall infrastructure and what the organization is prepared to do. If the infrastructure or the networking is a little hinky or you don't have a really finely tuned network infrastructure environment and your patches aren't up to date on your servers and your endpoints, it could get a little sticky. Other than that, it was okay. We really didn't have much problem beyond that. It took a couple of days to sort that out, but it was no big deal.
FarkhundAbbas - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides the ability to send detected malware to Kaspersky's sandbox environment for behavioral analysis
Kaspersky's support team is not that much supportive. If we need any help from them, they do not provide a good solution, and it takes too long to resolve the issue. This is the main thing because some cases are easy and need urgent resolution. However, when we create a support ticket, it takes three days to get it planned, and we have urgent requirements. So, the ticketing process needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Low system overhead, setting retention policies, ease of use"
"t has a very user friendly status bar with common errors and has logs built in to the console so we can review the issues or status of CrashPlan."
"The solution is very stable. Very rarely do we have any issues with it. We don't have to deal with bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. We find it to be reliable."
"Code42 Next-Gen DLP is scalable."
"It has quite a bit of flexibility in configuring backup sets."
"It required very little ongoing maintenance once setup."
"It had the ability to preseed by sending in a data drive and could restore by sending the user a data drive."
"Risk factors can be adjusted for all intricate details."
"Kaspersky EDR is far superior to other products. It gives detailed information about malware, geolocation, and more. Also, the agent itself is very lightweight compared to other products. The packages and updates were quite small in size, just a few KBs."
"It is a stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"Kaspersky EDR offers automated response capabilities, enhancing efficiency by enabling quick investigation and response to potential threats on Android devices."
"One of the good features is the provider's Faulting capability. If any of our systems detect malware, we can check the behavior of the malware by sending it to Kaspersky's sandbox environment. This helps us assess how destructive the malware is. After analyzing it, we can create use cases and protection measures based on that behavior. So, this is the best feature of Kaspersky."
"It is a secure solution with a lot of IT management features."
"The tool's performance and prevention are amazing."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"One of the most valuable aspects of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions is their ability to detect and respond to spam and viruses in their early stages."
 

Cons

"What I think could be improved is how I get support."
"There doesn't seem to be any feature that is lacking."
"Java, please get rid of Java."
"I think one we can improve is the compression."
"You can't always filter out data that you'd like to."
"The application, written in Java, required far more system resources on a Client than other solutions."
"I would like to see more flexibility on privileges, perhaps create another kind of admin for regions. Also, I would like the ability to access logs without having to be on the actual device or a super-admin."
"More security would be nice, I would love to be able to remotely brick a stolen laptop and it's hard disk drive (HDD)."
"There are certain shortcomings with the UI of the solution. The UI is not at all user-friendly."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"It needs improvement in communication between the network and endpoint, as well as between endpoint and server."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response needs vast resources on the central node. Not all maintenance tasks are in the GUI, so we often use commands. The lack of documentation for these processes means we frequently reach out to support, open tickets, and run complex CLI commands. It's not the most straightforward process. It should also improve stability."
"The main issue was compatibility with the cloud itself. The CPU usage immediately spiked, causing the machines to hang and sometimes even forcing server or computer restarts."
"I want to be able to use the product as a patch management tool for my endpoints since it is an area that is not working effectively for me."
"Enhancing user-friendliness should be a priority."
"Kaspersky EDR could be improved by adding network detection capabilities to enhance convenience and security."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It was expensive. It was more expensive than Eureka, and it was more expensive than Barracuda Backup, but what we got was a full team. They didn't come in and nickel and dime us. They provided the assistance we needed. They didn't say that they need to charge us for something or it is going to take another statement of work. It was all bundled into it... We pay for the software maintenance. It is probably 18% or 20% of the license fee for rev releases."
"It used to be a good solution for SOHO in particular as it had unlimited storage for a reasonable price. However, their pricing model has changed and they are now primarily targeting enterprise users."
"It is 100% worth the cost to get and keep the support, especially when setting it up."
"They were the best solution and surprisingly enough, the cheapest."
"The pricing is reasonable. It's my understanding that the cost is about $7 for unlimited storage in the cloud per server."
"It is cost-effective in terms of services and features compared to other more expensive EDR solutions like CrowdStrike and Trend Micro."
"The solution is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"The tool's pricing was high during the last renewal."
"I rate the solution's pricing model a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"Yearly payments are to be made toward the licensing costs of the solution."
"I would say that their pricing is generally competitive and attractive."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"The pricing falls within the average range."

Kaspersky has a better price than other marketplace solutions. Due to this, they are growing significantly. I like the price. I'd rate it nine out of ten.
What needs improvement with Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response?
Cortex is better in the security features, yet Cortex doesn't have IT management features like Kaspersky. Kaspersky is not an XDR solution. With an XDR solution, we could gain some more time.
