Amit-Sarkar - PeerSpot reviewer
Allows users to easily monitor miscellaneous activities occurring in their environments
The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required. It would be good if Jamf Protect could be integrated with Jamf Pro and used as a single solution. There are a couple of improvements where there is a need to change a few things. There are also a couple of things that need to be removed and merged into the main tool, Jamf Pro. The solution's technical team needs to improve because somewhere I felt from my personal experience that unless Jamf's team puts in an effort to understand the requirements of its customers, help can't be provided. The help provided by Jamf's team is on the basis of what they know, so I feel that they need to put a bit of effort into understanding what customers expect from the product.

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

"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"I rate the technical support a ten out of ten."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"The product's initial setup phase has very simple steps."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"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."
"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"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."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."
"Speed"
 

Cons

"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The solution's integration with other tools is slow."
"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."
"I'd really like to see some data loss prevention (DLP) capabilities. More visibility into user activity on laptops would be helpful."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"The product's price is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Beginners need initial training."
"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."
"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."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to focus on how they can widen their area of scope by not just being an antivirus tool anymore. The shortcoming in the customization area of the tool needs improvement."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Jamf Protect is an expensive solution."
"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."
"It's significantly cheaper than other options like ApexOne."
"Jamf Protect costs double the price that we were paying before."
"The licensing costs are yearly and expensive."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"The pricing is high."
"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."
