Cross-platform capability enhances security integration
The single agent, combined with the EDR system, delivers additional information and data for the EDR. Regarding the use cases, or maybe it fits better into another question about the motivation of the customers, I can see two approaches. The first approach is where the customer has an existing EDR system running, and their contract comes to an end. They are looking to either prolong it, renew it, continue with the current system, or look for something cheaper or better. When they reevaluate the contract, it's a sales approach to suggest that for a similar amount of money, not very much more, they can get something much better. It's not only a plain EDR or plain antivirus system - it's antivirus plus EDR. The difference in price is not much. Especially for the antivirus, the cross-platform capability is significant, as it's for Windows and Linux workstations and servers. Having one system for all platforms is essential. This has helped in two ways. The majority of customers want one thing for all, however, some customers definitely want two systems, servers separated from workstations. I have a big data center for banks, and they separate Windows Servers from Linux Servers. It is important for them to have two different systems. By providing this multi-operating system capability, I have engaged with customers via the Linux servers because the Windows servers are handled differently, so they were looking for a second different system, which opened the door for us.

User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Pros

"Especially for the antivirus, the cross-platform capability is significant, as it's for Windows and Linux workstations and servers."
"The tool's detection range works fine. Its most valuable features are its ease of employment and lightweightness. It's not heavy on resources. We focus on malware and ransomware detection."
"The solution's most valuable feature is its AI detection algorithm part, which helps and is Cybereason's way of detecting the unknown, not just the signature-based threats."
"I would rate the overall product as an eight out of ten."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."

Cons

"Cybereason Next-Generation Antivirus is not available in the local language, which can be inconvenient."
"Integrating other tools is sometimes an issue when using Cybereason Next-Generation Antivirus."

"As far as improvement to the product, perhaps the price could be better."

This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
"Sometimes the program is too complex, and simplifying it might be an improvement."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium. I really dislike it."

"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
