Ivan Burke - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers useful threat hunting and response capabilities but struggles to justify cost for smaller deployments
I mostly work with incident response, so I work with a bunch of them interchangeably, but mostly with the EDR components; I also get involved with some of the XDR components, especially for the cloud. Regarding analysis features, such as deep behavioral detection, I do use it sometimes; I usually don't use the automated version of it, as I prefer threat hunting directly, depending on if the season is available. I know some of them have pretty good analytics engines, but I tend to do the threat hunting on my own. I manage incident response for a bunch of companies, so some of them have Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response integrated into Sentinel, some into Fortinet, and others into various tools. When considering cost-effectiveness, their pricing structure works such that if you're a large organization with more than a thousand endpoints to deploy to, then Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response is worthwhile. But for anything less than 300, it's too expensive; obviously, the more you buy, the better the price, making it cheaper for you. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response best fits enterprise-level businesses such as huge corporations; however, we are in the process of removing it from many of our endpoint clients because it's not really showing enough value for them at the moment. We're trying to see how we can improve it with some of our clients, but at the moment, it's struggling compared to other EDR solutions that we have deployed. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response a six.

Allows users to easily monitor miscellaneous activities occurring in their environments
The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required. It would be good if Jamf Protect could be integrated with Jamf Pro and used as a single solution. There are a couple of improvements where there is a need to change a few things. There are also a couple of things that need to be removed and merged into the main tool, Jamf Pro. The solution's technical team needs to improve because somewhere I felt from my personal experience that unless Jamf's team puts in an effort to understand the requirements of its customers, help can't be provided. The help provided by Jamf's team is on the basis of what they know, so I feel that they need to put a bit of effort into understanding what customers expect from the product.

"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
 

Cons

"Its Microsoft PowerShell protections still need some compatibility improvements. We have run across just a few. It is compatible with 90% of what we have in our network, but there is that 10% that we are still struggling with as far as compatibility with the type of PowerShell scripts needed to run our day-to-day business."
"There can be problems with the EDI."
"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"The reporting feature needs improvement."
"It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity."

"Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on."
"Cybereason does not have sandbox functionality."
"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."
"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"Beginners need initial training."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"The pricing is manageable."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"I rate the product price as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
