Centralized encryption has secured all endpoints and has maintained compliance for remote devices
The best features of ESET Endpoint Encryption include full disk encryption, which is the most used one, ensuring all the endpoints are protected. I rely on this daily. Its main key focus on centralized management lets me monitor, enforce policies, and remediate issues from one console, and it allows for user-friendly deployment. Using ESET Endpoint Encryption has had a clear positive impact on my organization, especially in terms of security operational efficiency. From a security standpoint, I achieved 100% encryption coverage across all the endpoints, which significantly reduces the risk of data breaches due to lost or stolen devices. I also saw a noticeable drop in security incidents.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a very stable solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The solution's UI is user-friendly. Even a non-technical person can use it."
"The product is easy to implement and configure."
"The usability is the most valuable feature."
"The setup is getting easier."
"It is very secure and we have finally decided to use this after a thorough check. The interface is easy to navigate."
"The tool does not slow down the computer."
"The initial setup is easy."
"The Central Management server."
"The technical support is very good."
 

Cons

"I would like to see better compatibility with mobile devices. Most of the time, people are connecting to our server using their mobile device."
"The solution should have better synchronization with active directory users and passwords for use in the encryption."
"The main reason I rated ESET Endpoint Encryption a nine out of ten is that their support is a lengthy process."
"The product should be more responsive regarding feedback if it detects something in our infrastructure. I believe there's a backend that their engineers use to detect viruses in our system. We would appreciate it if they could promptly provide feedback and give us recommendations on how to better protect our infrastructure beyond their system. Additionally, we hope for improved integration with the other systems we currently use. It would be beneficial if they could collaborate to create something that facilitates integration between these systems."
"There are a few areas where ESET Endpoint Encryption could be better. The UX/UI could be more modern, and the management console feels a bit outdated and not very intuitive at times."
"ESET Endpoint Encryption needs to improve pricing and security."
"Integration with central management needs improvement."
"For me, it is unstable."
"MacOS X is missing features."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"There are some inexpensive products compared to ESET Endpoint Encryption, but they lack the essential features."
"Instead of installing ESET on each machine at each location, we just do it remotely. This has been a time saver for us."
"The National University System dedicates 500 of their 5000 licenses to us, which is $14/yr per device. Most companies are paying $99 or $120 per device a year."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the highest, I rate its pricing a two."
"We paid for an annual subscription, and it was reasonable."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and could be more cost-effective."
"ESET Endpoint Encryption is moderately priced."
"Licensing and pricing is on par with the market."
