We performed a comparison between CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager and ESET Endpoint Protection Platform based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Privileged Access Management (PAM) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."I like that you can remove the admin rights from the user's computer and have control over the environment. That means you can delete the local admins and grant them proper privileges with the console. So, they will get proper permissions for applications they need, but we don't have to do it. In the domain where we don't have control, the user can only do specified actions, but not all of them."
"We were able to reduce the number of privileged accounts by 50%, which helped to simplify our privileged access management environment."
"You can use it to strip users of their local admin rights and, at the same time, elevate applications for them."
"The department management aspect of the solution is the most valuable aspect."
"This is the number one product for privilege account security."
"The most valuable feature of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is its high performance, it's the best identity security platform. The security is good. It's easy to showcase the feature and capabilities and compare it with other competitors. It competes well with other solutions. Additionally, it is a complete solution."
"The product is stable."
"We can do both server and endpoint protection."
"Easy to use security solution, helps to secure connected devices against viruses in the digital world."
"The solution has very useful MDM features."
"It can block certain web pages that may contain viruses or pose a threat to the computer."
"I have found the ESET Management Console very good. It gives me many features, such as managing users and installing a new version."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the ease of use."
"The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are the search engine, easy firewall setup, and ransomware scans."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is the protection itself, which works well for us."
"A feature we like is setting the GUI of ESET Endpoint Security/ESET File Security to silent mode because some servers and clients can have performance issues."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager can be better by making its UI more consistent."
"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is a perfect solution, but CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager for Linux has many issues. Another area for improvement in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, specifically for Windows, is that there's no way for you to check credential theft from a text file, such as a notepad file."
"Compared to other tools like Linux, this solution isn't as user-friendly."
"CyberArk is a pretty heavy solution."
"We have had some major issues with the tool, but we have worked with the R&D teams and we have worked with support. There is room for improvement, especially on response times. But they're working on it and they're doing the best they can."
"The product's threat protection and defense capabilities need enhancement."
"CyberArk has some performance issues. For example, servers could not handle the solution when we first took CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager."
"It's an old product and has many areas that can be improved."
"It would be nice to have more features in vulnerability scanning, which I believe will happen eventually."
"iOS compatibility for mobile security and parental control."
"The interface is good. However, it could always be better. It could be more user-friendly."
"The use of SQL Server can be improved. At times, there is a bit of challenge while linking it with the Javascript. ESET Endpoint Security requires modern technology or modern equipment on site. You will find it difficult to use ESET Endpoint Security with dual-core machines. If they can add the cloud management feature to their product, it will be much easier. If you look at this COVID situation that we are in right now, people are working from home, so you need to control the computers wherever you are. For example, if you are using any email setup and you are hosting it on your own, all the email traffic will be going through the same network. You need to protect all of your computers from the attack. It is best if you can do it remotely rather than having an IT person to come onsite to manage all computers and metrics etc, which isn't a smart way to do it."
"The scalability could be better."
"There are some new antivirus technologies that rely on AI, artificial intelligence. ESET does not have this technology right now."
"We are looking to move towards an EDR solution rather than EPP. EDR is a solution that can dynamically detect threats based on the process behavior. It would be better if this solution was an EDR and an EPP solution, this would increase security protection."
"The solution could improve by having higher-level security and reporting."
