FarkhundAbbas - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides the ability to send detected malware to Kaspersky's sandbox environment for behavioral analysis
Kaspersky's support team is not that much supportive. If we need any help from them, they do not provide a good solution, and it takes too long to resolve the issue. This is the main thing because some cases are easy and need urgent resolution. However, when we create a support ticket, it takes three days to get it planned, and we have urgent requirements. So, the ticketing process needs improvement.
AnikIslam - PeerSpot reviewer
Automatic update feature could be better and multi-layered protection capability needs enhancement
The platform's ability to update the database from my device and manage user profiles is quite effective. It also provides web threat protection by blocking unwanted websites. It provides multi-layered protection. Although it could be more efficient, it is sufficient for regular purposes. I would not recommend it based on my experience. I rate it a three out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It is a stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"From my point of view, one of the best aspects of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is its high detection rate, which surpasses many other solutions. Its valuable features include behavior detection, threat prevention, device control, adaptive anomaly control, and centralized protection detection."
"Kaspersky offers more visible and comprehensive features compared to other products."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is its consolidated features."
"The product is integrated with endpoint protection. We don't have to implement a separate technology. It provides visibility over the endpoints."
"One of the good features is the provider's Faulting capability. If any of our systems detect malware, we can check the behavior of the malware by sending it to Kaspersky's sandbox environment. This helps us assess how destructive the malware is. After analyzing it, we can create use cases and protection measures based on that behavior. So, this is the best feature of Kaspersky."
"It downloads essential security patches that are valuable for my PC."
"The advanced detection features are valuable."
"Kaspersky has a Cloud Discovery feature. There is no template in Kaspersky. They provide a temporary risk assessment of the cloud services. For example, if we want to block public storage services like OneDrive or Google Drive, we need to specify each individually. The main difference is that Kaspersky's process takes more time because it requires individual input."
"The product works perfectly to prevent malware in our organization."
"The most valuable component of the solution is the malware detection feature."
"The standout features of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud include its cloud-based console and the simplicity of managing endpoints."
"I find the EDR service valuable as it adds extra protection and provides a centralized view."
"We had the cloud suite of KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud, and its monitoring was fine."
"In terms of software performance, it has been effective in providing good security."
"It is a powerful tool for zero-day attack prevention."
 

Cons

"The product does not detect zero-day threats."
"My team was struggling with the reporting when we were doing an audit. The console features are a little more interactive and user-friendly. There's some issue, or maybe some fixing has to be done."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response needs vast resources on the central node. Not all maintenance tasks are in the GUI, so we often use commands. The lack of documentation for these processes means we frequently reach out to support, open tickets, and run complex CLI commands. It's not the most straightforward process. It should also improve stability."
"Incorporating an AI protection tool with the capability to detect and prevent zero-day threats, particularly those with a five-star rating in terms of severity would be beneficial."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response lacks configuration options."
"I want to be able to use the product as a patch management tool for my endpoints since it is an area that is not working effectively for me."
"Kaspersky is not an XDR solution. With an XDR solution, we could gain some more time."
"The main issue was compatibility with the cloud itself. The CPU usage immediately spiked, causing the machines to hang and sometimes even forcing server or computer restarts."
"Its high CPU usage also slows down devices, particularly those with lower specifications like Core i3."
"The solution’s stability could be improved because we earlier faced an issue where the solution was not detecting file-less malware."
"Kaspersky's global ranking has been on the decline."
"One area where the product could be improved is in its delivery and installation process."
"The tool's update management can be better. In future releases, the addition of a DLP module would be valuable."
"While the product provides a good level of protection, we need better support, especially in terms of being kept informed about new threats and specific configurations needed."
"Sometimes, the tool consumes a lot of resources from the endpoints, making it an area of concern where improvements are required since it currently consumes a little bit of RAM."
"Certain shortcomings in the anti-ransomware part of the solution need improvement. XDR and MDR, along with threat hunting, a big step in cybersecurity today, need improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is cheap."
"I rate the product price a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is low price and ten is high price."
"I was satisfied with the pricing of Kaspersky."
"I would say that their pricing is generally competitive and attractive."
"The solution is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"It is cost-effective in terms of services and features compared to other more expensive EDR solutions like CrowdStrike and Trend Micro."
"I rate the solution's pricing model a seven on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive."
"The pricing falls within the average range."
"We had to pay an annual licensing fee for KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud."
"The pricing is favorable, and there are no additional expenses associated with using the product."
"The product’s price is flexible."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"The platform is expensive."
"The solution is moderately priced and cannot be considered an expensive or cheap tool."
"The product is averagely priced."
"I find Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud more accessible in terms of pricing."
