User-friendly platform and dashboards provide comprehensive insights
I would like to see improvements on the operational side, specifically in grouping. Currently, I can group sensors into a custom group and assign policies, but I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance. This would be useful for organizing multiple sites or countries into a single group containing multiple sub-groups. Additionally, in the whitelisting case, if I want one policy to have specific whitelisting, but not all the machines in that policy to have it, I could use multiple groups belonging to the same parent group. It is a bit disappointing that whitelisting can only be done via policies and not for individual machines. If I need to whitelist for only one machine, I must create a specific policy. This poses a challenge with two thousand endpoints, making it nearly impossible to create two thousand different policies.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"We didn't have the visibility that we now have. It has increased our visibility by a lot. So, we put a lot more time into really looking at our environment and what is happening throughout our different networks. It has increased our visibility by around fivefold."
"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform. It is very straightforward."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Cybereason's threat hunting and investigation are the most valuable features. Threat hunting is a user-friendly feature that keeps you safe. Investigation offers an added value that I haven't seen with other EDR services. It allows you to find specific policy problems within your environment."
"The initial setup was easy and straightforward."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."
"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"The initial setup is not complex at all. It's very straightforward."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
 

Cons

"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."
"The reporting feature needs improvement."
"I feel it is a shame that I cannot create groups of groups with inheritance."
"The network coverage becomes an issue most of the time."
"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"What needs to improve in Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and what I'd like to see in its next release is a centralized dashboard that allows you to view what is there, similar to what's on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager: a beautiful display and reporting. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response has to start with the compliance, the homepage, etc. Everything should be there and should be customizable. The options should be there. The tool is very good currently, but visibility for IT administrators is lacking and needs to be worked on."
"It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity."
"There is room for improvement in the product features related to device control, particularly USB management."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"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."
"The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."
"The console spins up relatively slowly, and some of the configuration items are obscure (e.g., reporting back one time per day is a default setting) and need to be tweaked."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"The pricing is manageable."
"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."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."
"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"I think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."
"It is relatively cheap."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
