Cloud-based protection has simplified daily client support and keeps threats under control
The problems that we are facing with policy adoption include slow adoption, as it takes more than five minutes to adopt policy on client computers. ESET Network Attack Protection sometimes helps in reducing network-level intrusions, but sometimes it prevents local devices on the network, which are well-known and good devices, from being recognized, treating them as a threat. So it requires more administration than usual. ESET could implement a good solution for remote support in ESET Endpoint Protection Platform for improvement in the future. Since you have the cloud console, ESET could have something similar to AnyDesk or TeamViewer, but from ESET.

An affordable tool that is easy to learn
The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seqrite developed a feature that can help restore deleted data. If there is a ransomware attack, our company can restore the data as Seqrite keeps a copy in an encrypted and complex format. If there is any ransomware attack, our company can restore the data. If the data is deleted by any of the users in our company, and if we want to recover it, then it can be done through the process that the tool uses to restore data during a ransomware attack. There is a command through which users can recover the data from the laptop.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We do not have a domain structure yet but we can manage our client stations via this solution's managing interface. This means that we don't need to have any extra management platforms."
"The software and hardware inventory that you can create by using the console is valuable. It is also very light on hardware resources."
"I have found the ESET Management Console very good. It gives me many features, such as managing users and installing a new version."
"The overall security capability of the product is pretty reliable."
"The solution has a very good endpoint feature."
"ESET provides good protection."
"The most valuable feature of ESET Endpoint Security is that it is light on resources. It has a very low impact on the system. It uses low memory and the setup size is very low."
"The administration is its most valuable feature as I can see all versions in one place."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
 

Cons

"We do get false positives."
"The migration between on-prem and cloud has room for improvement."
"ESET should consider giving it application control."
"The detection could be better in ESET Endpoint Security. Sometimes it takes time to detect threats and might be because it's not holding all the memory. There are some features that have to mature. More features might be available in the higher-end product."
"The product should provide a one-click option to renew the licenses."
"Everything has some kind of room for improvement."
"It seems to have some issues with updates. When you do updates, it sometimes requests for a reboot, and even when you do the reboot, it still says that you need to reboot. Currently, on my computer, it says that a new ESET Endpoint Antivirus has been installed, and I need to restart the computer for the changes to take effect, but I've already done that, and the same message is still there, which is a little annoying. It should have a feature similar to the Intercept X feature in Sophos."
"The stability needs to be improved. There are bugs that you have to deal with."
"The interface is slow."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
