Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"For overall satisfaction, I rate Cynet between nine to ten out of ten, and I wholeheartedly recommend it to other users."
"The product is very easy to use. Customers really appreciate that."
"I like the Cynet Correlator™ feature."
"The feature I find most valuable, is the reality graphical user interface."
"If some unusual activity happens on the network, such as I open administrator sessions in a short duration of an hour on many computers in the lab, it sends me an alert about my network saying that one user opened three, four, or five sessions in one hour. Similarly, if I try to play with the disk size on a computer, it will send me an alert, and it will also stop the operation."
"I like that it is possible to use the solution to check more information about the users' devices."
"The most effective features of Cynet are its ransomware protection and lateral movement deception."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"Kaspersky is viable with ADR."
"The product is very easy to use."
"It is a scalable solution...It is a stable solution."
"We have a central console and from there you can monitor all workstations via an agent."
"The solution does a good job of filtering and blocking unusual traffic."
"It's scalable enough for us."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert offers centralized monitoring where we can monitor everything from a single point. I also like its security and network traffic features."
"The solution is scalable."
 

Cons

"I suppose everybody's working on AI these days. So, I would like to see more about AI-based threats."
"The reporting functionality in Cynet may not be as comprehensive or flexible as desired."
"It is an endpoint agent, but they don't have a probe for checking the network traffic. They could improve from this point of view."
"Most of their times are in Greenwich Mean Time. I would like to see more local time zones."
"Increased application for SOAR abilities across interconnected devices would be a welcome improvement."
"I would like to see more emphasis on building the data lake and storing all endpoint data in the enterprise data lake so that data mining can be performed"
"The solution lacks URL filtering."
"The inability to add contact information inside the Cynet is also an issue because it makes things more complicated. I would like to have a simple feature to enter a contact name and number for the person taking care of that unit or that server."
"Kaspersky needs to strengthen its standing in the market."
"Installing Kaspersky is complex. It requires more work from system admins and takes almost one week to deploy, including integration and mapping with other solutions. You also have to configure Kaspersky EDR sandboxing then set up permissions for various teams and customers."
"If it covered more products, it would improve the XDR."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response could improve some issues and add new security files."
"There are some issues with EDR's web policy blocking sites that are marked as exceptions."
"The system can be heavy, slowing down performance."
"The Kaspersky console could be easier to navigate and generate reports from."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"It is extremely affordable. I'll give it a five out of five in terms of price. It was half the cost of the next closest competitor, and the competitor didn't provide SOC services."
"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."
"The price should not be less than $100 which is quite reasonable for this solution because you are getting multiple components."
"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"Cynet is cheaper than other solutions in the market."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"I don't have specific information about integration capabilities or licensing costs."
"The solution is worth its cost so I rate pricing a ten out of ten."
"Kaspersky's pricing is very competitive when it comes to comparison with the other solutions."
"If one is cheap, ten is expensive, I rate the product’s price as a seven out of ten, especially if I compare it with CrowdStrike."
"Endpoint's pricing is good, especially compared to expensive solutions like Sophos."
"The solution’s pricing is okay."
"Kaspersky is licensed on a yearly basis."
"Pricing for Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is so-so when you compare it with its competitors. Its pricing isn't cheap nor expensive."
"We have been satisfied with the license of the solution."
