Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Security needs improvement and email scanning features are not included
The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor. We cannot use this for email scanning. There are many options that are not available in DeepArmor. We cannot use separate applications for different internet applications or for different internet scanning. This is why we cannot use it. I would like to see additional features such as email scanning, which should be included, or malware detections, and other cybersecurity features should be included. It could also be more secure.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Its setup is simple if you have a Windows device; it is executable."
"The Application Guard and ByteGuard are useful features."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue.​"
"The deployment of updates is easy."
"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."
"What's most valuable in CylancePROTECT is the optics feature. I also like its easy-to-use and user-friendly dashboard and monitoring system."
"It is easy to install."
 

Cons

"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"Having worked with SentinelOne, Cylance is good, however, it probably needs to add a feature similar to SentinelOne's rollback functionality. With this feature, if you get infected, with a click, you can go back to the pre-infection state. If Cylance could add this functionality to their offering as well, that would be ideal."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"Enhancing the product's detection rates and streamlining the user interface for easier management in daily operations would be beneficial improvements."
"​Work on the math model. We are catching a lot of false positives, which gets to be a pain at the start of a deployment."
"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool is not that expensive."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"We would just add more if there are new users, but right now you just need one license for per user."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"We went through a third party initially to do the renewal, but we won't be renewing, we will move on to something else."
"CylancePROTECT is worth the money, but I'm not sure of its exact price. I can't remember off the top of my head."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"There are licensing fees."
