Searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware and monitors the network for security
Jamf Protect provides zero-touch integration, and we can add various IdPs for synchronization or authentication.The most effective feature of the solution for security needs is that users can create a zero-touch environment network access and VPN access. Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security.
Urs Schuerch - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"The quick updates are really good. If a new OS update drops today, I'll have the Jamf Protect update within a few hours. It's also compatible with all Mac OS versions, and there's zero lag or performance impact."
"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"Jamf Protect's most effective features for threat detection include managing devices and applications, deploying and upgrading the OS, and its overall security features."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"Valuable features include good scanning, very light footprint and management console that the client can access and (just as important) in which I can see status of groups of computers (I am a consultant, IT role)."
"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"Low performance requirements."
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."
"The ease of use of the centralized admin console is its best asset."
 

Cons

"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The scope of improvement will fall under the support hierarchy that the tool offers to the latest version that Apple derives for any of the latest operating systems to launch."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"Beginners need initial training."
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"I rate the product price as a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"It is relatively cheap."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
