Great features, good patch management, and useful ransomware protection
I also have experience with Sophos and Kaspersky. The main difference is that some features are not available in Kaspersky. And, for example, the patch management part is not included in Sophos. On the Kaspersky side, they have a patch management part. However, we need to purchase an additional option to enable that feature. With Comodo Protection, patch management is already included with the product, and we don't need to buy it separately. Also, the main advantage is performance. When we implemented Sophos on the endpoint, the CPU utilization went higher. When we installed Comodo, the memory of the CPU utilization is very low. We can implement Comodo from XP and SP3 to the latest operating system. However, with Kaspersky or Sophos, they are not supported for that or Windows 10. Comodo is supporting Windows XP SP3 and all our operating systems. That said, the Sophos Intercept X Advanced option has a web filtering part, or integration. Comodo has only basic filtering, and web filtering is there. That means we can do the URL web addresses and block and allow the connection and that's it with Comodo. Comodo does have a separate product for that, Comodo Secure Internet, where we can configure and filter all the web filtering parts. That would be an extra solution at an extra cost.

Lightweight and not hard to set up however, does not offer good reporting
We've had a couple of events both this year and last year where it just didn't seem to catch ransomware, which is impossible to do if someone has hands-on with the system. There were some things that they had or used to have or don't have that I still haven't figured out called journaling. And it was supposed to be a way to roll back changes that were made. However, they're telling me they don't have that. That's not in the system. It’s my understanding that it doesn’t actually scan any files at all. They just look at their database of files they've scanned previously, and either it matches or doesn't. That might be where the shortcoming is, is that it just can't stay up-to-date fast enough to stop new things that are coming in. It's an after-the-fact anti-virus. It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it. There is one thing that is deplorable with the product that I would change as soon as I found a better one. However, the reports are worthless. You go and look at a scan report and cannot get a log of machines. I can log into a console and see the files were scanned every day at 2:00 AM, and they all passed green or something was detected and removed. However, you have to go to the console. I don't have anything that I can send to my client on reports. What they give you is a bunch of bar graphs with no details. You can't drill down. It'll say two infections. However, it doesn't tell you what machines. You've just really got several different reports, and they're all just a bunch of graphs and wasted paper. There's nothing really substantial. The reports that I can use for client-facing, once a month, to say, "Here, we scanned all these workstations. Here are our results," don’t exist. They've got fake reports. I've screamed about that for years, and they just won't do anything. Therefore, I created my own little up-to-date or not ask fail-type report. I send that to them in place of a report directly from a product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
"Overall, I would rate Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection a nine out of ten."
"Containment is the best feature of the solution."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection allows our organization's clients to be managed and inventoried remotely."
"The most valuable feature of Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is its ability to provide ransomware protection."
"If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well."
"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"Speed"
"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"Auto-Remediation"
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."
 

Cons

"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection could improve by extending its auto containment feature to Mac and Linux systems since it currently only supports Windows."
"There are a few minor issues such as package updates and passwords."
"The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers."
"The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions."
"There could be MDRM features added to the product."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a cost-effective solution"
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"The price of this product should be lower."
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."

"The product is very reasonably priced."
"The product is pricey."
"Work on a price tier plan."
"It is relatively cheap."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
"I think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
