Effective device management, enhance threat detection and smooth integration
I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being easy. Initially, the deployment took 15 days for the pilot phase, and then another 15 days for production. However, the actual deployment itself only took 15 days, as it was preconfigured. So it took around one month in total. Stakeholder approval caused a delay, but the actual deployment for the facility department was only 15 days. No maintenance is required because everything is associated. It's a cloud solution, so we only need to modify applications for the services. So, 99.9% of the time, it's working fine.

User-friendly interface simplifies management while performance issues during scanning need addressing
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is easy to implement and has a user-friendly interface. It stands out as an antivirus and malware protection solution due to its extensive feeds and resources for antivirus signatures. These capabilities enable effective malware protection. Additionally, it offers scalability as any endpoint added to Active Directory can be easily integrated by Kaspersky Security Center. Its straightforward deployment and ease of management are other valuable features. It does not require an advanced engineer to manage, and resources are readily available online, making it accessible and scalable.

For example, if we are hit by an attack, I would like to have tools to investigate what kind of attack, who has attacked, how it was attacked, and what we could do to stop this kind of attack in the future. I would like to have more forensics capability built into Kaspersky."
"The threat intelligence features are not up to date."
"It would be ideal with the solution offered more documentation."
