Provides reliable and comprehensive internet security solutions without significant system slowdowns
My organization uses ESET Inspect for antivirus and internet security on laptops and desktops. On the enterprise side, we utilize it on our Windows Server.  The platform has improved our organization's security by providing comprehensive antivirus and internet security solutions. It is fast and…

Works wonderfully to defend endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts
It would be much easier if the solution added the allowed USB for pen drives and USB drives. You can import an Excel CSV file with 500 devices, but it will be allowed globally. That would be helpful if you want to allow it only in one policy. If you want to enable these pen drives only for one group or an organization's security group, you have to add them manually one by one. That could be easier. It's a user experience, but you can add not just the serial but also the vendor. If you only have a Kingston pen drive, you can say that you want to allow all Kingston, or you can add the model number. If you know that you have a specific model of the Kingston pen drive, you can just allow Kingston and that model. The serial number is not important. You will not filter by serial number. However, if you want to filter by serial number and add only the given devices with the serial number, you have to add them one by one. You have to do this if you don't want to allow them globally. It's enough if you know that you bought a Kingston pen drive and you just put in that you want to allow the Kingston and the model number. Then, all pen drives of the given model will be allowed for a given security group on a given number of computers. In that case, you can attach only pen drives and no external hard drives from Kingston. That could be fast. If you want to add a given serial number, you add it one by one for a specific group. If you want to allow them globally, you say that everybody can use the pen drive on every computer. You can do it from a CSV. Let's say the CSV imports for security groups only and not company-wide. I think this is the more punctual way. If you want to allow it only for the security group or Active Directory group of users, you must manually edit it to limit the serial numbers. The solution's user experience regarding device control could be more friendly or straightforward.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I find the multilayered endpoint security the most valuable feature."
"Rules are the most valuable feature of ESET Inspect. They are created through XML language, and they track and filter events from endpoints. If the event matches the rule, the rule is triggered. Exceptions are the second most valuable feature because it gives you the power to filter false positives in large numbers. The third most valuable feature is the Learning mode that facilitates making exceptions for known processes with a good reputation."
"The product's most valuable features are its performance and stability."
"The rules are the best and most useful features."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's most valuable feature is EDR."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy navigation and thorough analysis of incidents."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"Many features that this solution has, competitors lack. The feature I think is quite good is data loss prevention."
"Along with the anti-malware, it has a built-in device control and DLP."
"The initial setup was very straightforward."
"We have found the reports to be most valuable."
"We really like the ability to have different policies to keep servers and endpoints unique to their own policy."
"It's made it easier for us to monitor the security environment in general."
"The antivirus is the most valuable aspect of Trend Micro Apex One."
"It has the ability to share, which is not available in other products."
 

Cons

"It may be difficult for a first-time customer to understand all of the functions that are available to him."
"The solution could improve the consumption of resources. The RAM and CPU usage increases during usage which can cause issues. We have three separate services and it would be beneficial if all were executed from one agent limiting the over usage of system resources."
"Every vendor is working on making the job of SOC analysts easier, with fewer false positives and more precise detections. ESET uses LiveGrid technology that provides feedback on the reputation of files and operations. It's hard to eliminate all of the false positives, but hopefully, we'll see some improvement with the advances in AI."
"It is not a stable product. We were disappointed in the stability of this product in comparison to McAffee."
"The product is complex to configure, and there are too many errors that are not errors, making it an area that can be considered for improvement."
"One area that needs improvement for the product is ransomware protection, which does not offer complete security."
"The platform's price could be better."
"I think that this product needs to improve the data loss prevention port."
"I am expecting an Apple featured IDLP solution with OfficeScan, where we have only IDLP. Also, the ADR functionality in our Office Scan solution would be a nice addition. Genrally, the ADR solutions are the only failed ends of the solutions we have found with Trend Micro."
"The UI has room for improvement."
"No product can ever be rated a ten out of ten. They are always improving on one aspect or another."
"Sometimes it will not communicate with the server, and we need to manually restart items."
"The role-based access control needs improvement."
"It would be great it can support endpoint encryption."
"I want more options and flexibility when creating rules. I want to set rules that are contingent, like "If this happens, then this, this, and this will happen.""
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"This is true in the case of licensing, we do not have the most expensive products, and we don't have the cheapest product, it's somewhere in the middle. Perhaps a little higher from the middle, but we are known for what we provide to our customers, and they are pleased."
"The platform's licensing is affordable and straightforward."
"The platform is expensive; it could be cheaper."
"The pricing and licensing are the big issue now, in my opinion. If the price was less than other companies, or a one-time charge for service was available, I think there would be more users of this solution."
"I feel it is a very expensive product."
"The licensing fee and support are bundled together."
"The price is reasonable."
"When compared with other solutions, the price could be better."
"If I remember correctly, the cost is approximately four and a half thousand per year."
"Compared to other products on the market, I think that the pricing is reasonable."
"We have the smallest package of Trend Micro Apex One. The full package is expensive, and it was more expensive than we thought."
"Its pricing should be improved."
"On a yearly basis, it's about $50,000. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
