Has an user-friendly UI which even a non-technical person can use

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.

Fast with great patching and the ability to prioritize critical work

For a customer that had 4,000 devices, and at the time they had something that only supported Windows. We suggested this product, and the client was able to manage inventory and patch beyond just Windows devices. It helped them maintain compliance and patching permissions. They could do all the patching of all the devices within a week - offering less downtime.

"ESET Endpoint Encryption works as an antivirus system."

"The most valuable feature of ESET Endpoint Encryption is its rate of capturing viruses and malware."

More ESET Endpoint Encryption pros

"The setup is pretty straightforward."

"The stability is good."

Cons

"The initial setup could be made easier."

"From an admin perspective, the solution's UI could be more user-friendly."

"I would like more robust reporting as part of the Remote Administrator."

"Sometimes the server console is very slow, so the performance could be improved."

"There could be an option for users to restart the system without a password."

"My problem is that there's a technical glitch and they don't have a fix for it. It's not working with the latest version of Windows, which is a problem."

"There should be more frequent updates."

"Integration with central management needs improvement."

More ESET Endpoint Encryption cons

"I'm not on the most current version, however, I know one area that I didn't get into that I kind of wanted to is to have a mobile device management tool. My understanding is it's improved a lot from the version I have. It may be a feature that is already available."

"If they could introduce it on the cloud, it would be ideal."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are some inexpensive products compared to ESET Endpoint Encryption, but they lack the essential features."

"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."

"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."

"Instead of installing ESET on each machine at each location, we just do it remotely. This has been a time saver for us."

"The pricing is mid-ranged and could be more cost-effective."

"It is neither very expensive, nor cheap. Overall it is affordable and there is a long term arrangement between our company and the solution providers for license."

"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."
