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.

Faced with deployment challenges but benefits from detailed reporting and cost efficiency
CrowdStrike sits at the kernel level and we don't know how it's operating, but we get the message; however, ESET Endpoint Protection Platform sometimes has issues with policies where users complain about popping up notifications. When we were using CrowdStrike, it used to detect and block pirated software, but ESET Endpoint Protection Platform is not doing that. The blocking notification in ESET Endpoint Protection Platform comes in when it is installed from the user; it should not disturb them because we are in a domain environment, and sometimes users are not able to bypass or minimize many things they are facing. Additionally, it is not detecting pirated software, which could be a bug. I trust ESET Endpoint Protection Platform, and they should ensure that software with bugs are not getting through. While it is cheap, ESET Endpoint Protection Platform sometimes makes the computer run slower and takes backup, which affects system performance. If the price is low, ESET Endpoint Protection Platform is saving money, but time-wise, we face problems because when users have issues, we need to spend time rectifying them.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is easy to install."
"The solution's features and pricing are pretty good."
"The most valuable features of this solution are, of course, the IPS/IDS, Intrusion Prevention, Intrusion Detection, and Antivirus."
"In terms of stability, I can rate it at nine out of ten."
"The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are the search engine, easy firewall setup, and ransomware scans."
"Easy to use security solution, helps to secure connected devices against viruses in the digital world."
"The most valuable feature is the antispam module, which comes in the bundle."
"It has been working fine. It lets you know when it finds things. We didn't have any incident where the place had to shut down or was taken over by anything. We haven't had any issues that we know of."
"It rarely gets in the way, and we don't even notice it scanning."
 

Cons

"The email scanning feature is not available in DeepArmor."
"ESET Endpoint Security could improve EDR integration."
"Sometimes, ESET sends alerts within my own network that cause confusion. That is, it might warn about contamination, or that the VM has crashed, but it doesn't go further than that. It just shows me the alert and sometimes I am not sure what to do about it."
"The software has room for improvement in terms of CPU and other resource usage."
"ESET Endpoint Security lacks some advanced functionalities and features which would be useful to be interconnected with the solutions we use, such as Microsoft 365."
"When users renew licenses, they should offer a discount."
"The scalability could be better."
"The user interface of ESET Endpoint Security could be more user-friendly and more features could be added."
"The initial setup of ESET Endpoint Security was not complex because we have five years of experience. However, it is not as easy if we did not have the experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are licensing fees."
"The price could be lower, but it's comparable, as other solutions have a similar price for the same effect."
"The price of the solution is reasonable compared to the other products out there. It is definitely in line with the competition."
"The price of the solution is very good compared to other solutions."
"You need to pay for the ESET Endpoint Antivirus license monthly or yearly, whichever you choose."
"The cost of the solution is hard to justify even if the EDR operates well."
"It is not expensive, but it is also not inexpensive."
"Customers buy the ESET Endpoint Security license for a year, two years, or 36 months."
"Its price is fair. If we compare it with any other retail product, it is a little harder to compete with."
