Automatic update feature could be better and multi-layered protection capability needs enhancement
The platform's ability to update the database from my device and manage user profiles is quite effective. It also provides web threat protection by blocking unwanted websites. It provides multi-layered protection. Although it could be more efficient, it is sufficient for regular purposes. I would not recommend it based on my experience. I rate it a three out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is easy to use."
"The initial setup of ESET EDR_XDR is very simple, easy to deploy, and manage."
"The product works perfectly to prevent malware in our organization."
"The standout features of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud include its cloud-based console and the simplicity of managing endpoints."
"It is a powerful tool for zero-day attack prevention."
"The most valuable component of the solution is the malware detection feature."
"We had the cloud suite of KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud, and its monitoring was fine."
"In Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud, anti-phishing and anti-malware are two very powerful aspects."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud is a very good solution for endpoint protection."
"Kaspersky has a Cloud Discovery feature. There is no template in Kaspersky. They provide a temporary risk assessment of the cloud services. For example, if we want to block public storage services like OneDrive or Google Drive, we need to specify each individually. The main difference is that Kaspersky's process takes more time because it requires individual input."
 

Cons

"ESET EDR_XDR needs to conduct more research and development and innovations in early detection of attacks."
"The solution could improve how it scours each website."
"The tool's update management can be better. In future releases, the addition of a DLP module would be valuable."
"One area where the product could be improved is in its delivery and installation process."
"Certain shortcomings in the anti-ransomware part of the solution need improvement. XDR and MDR, along with threat hunting, a big step in cybersecurity today, need improvement."
"While the product provides a good level of protection, we need better support, especially in terms of being kept informed about new threats and specific configurations needed."
"The solution’s stability could be improved because we earlier faced an issue where the solution was not detecting file-less malware."
"It requires specific expertise or certified professionals to deploy the product. There is a need to expand the offerings to various industries covering different-sized businesses."
"Kaspersky's global ranking has been on the decline."
"Its high CPU usage also slows down devices, particularly those with lower specifications like Core i3."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution’s pricing a six or seven out of ten.."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"The platform is expensive."
"The solution is moderately priced and cannot be considered an expensive or cheap tool."
"I find Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud more accessible in terms of pricing."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud is a cost-effective solution."

"We had to pay an annual licensing fee for KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud."
