Offers good monitoring features but needs to improve the support services offered
The tool's drawback is that it fails to offer support for Linux. The XDR and licensing parts of the tool are also areas of concern where improvements are required. XDR is for extensive detection and range of response. Jamf relies on signature-based access. If it is a known signature that just protects our devices, it is a kind of threat isolation. The tool does have behavioral analysis, but as the severity becomes less, the system gets loaded. It is not the same with CrowdStrike as it has a variety of strategies and is a fully cloud-native tool, which helps it to make sure it is a leader in Gartner Magic Quadrant. CrowdStrike goes with its set of practicalities. The kind of threat intelligence CrowdStrike follows is really expensive. With CrowdStrike, we can see which factors have been targeted in our organization. If we know our enemy, then it becomes so easy to cover up with the defense mechanism. The features in CrowdStrike get lagged when used with Jamf Protect. With Jamf Protect, there is a need to improve the security it offers.

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

Pros

"Jamf Protect is a security product that helps us with CIS benchmarks and threat prevention."
"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 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."
"Jamf Protect searches incoming and outgoing traffic for malware to monitor the network for security."
"The behavioral detection is valuable."
"We mainly use Jamf Protect to protect staff computers from malware and antivirus."
"The tool's tech support is helpful and efficient. It also has an active community."
"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."
"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very scalable."
 

Cons

"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"The dependency on Jamf Pro or SIEM or SOAR for some automations and integrations could be reduced."
"Jamf Protect protects just Mac devices, and we would love to have one solution for other platforms and not just Mac devices."
"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 tool's drawback is that it fails to offer support for Linux."
"Beginners need initial training."
"Jamf Protect needs to improve its pricing."
"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."
"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."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"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 did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
