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.
Zunair Aftab - PeerSpot reviewer
Security features excel while management tools face challenges
Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud has proven to be a robust and comprehensive solution for endpoint protection. So far, no major negative features have been observed. However, email security integration with Microsoft 365 has room for improvement. In a recent real-world incident, a company received 10 phishing emails, of which only three were blocked by the system. Enhancing detection accuracy to block 7 or more would significantly improve trust and effectiveness. With the on-premises version, there's a known issue where assigning a device to a new group results in it being auto-assigned back to the previous group. Fixing this bug would greatly streamline device management. Additionally, in the cloud version, once a device is assigned to a user, it cannot be reassigned without deleting the user or the device entirely. It would be far more user-friendly if the platform allowed simple reassignment or de-assignment, returning the device to an "unassigned" state. As for automated behavioral analysis, while current functionality is based on machine learning, upgrading to true AI-powered detection could bring substantial improvements. Ideally, the system should proactively flag potential threats, and offer administrators the option to either allow or block applications based on intelligent risk analysis

Pros

"Kaspersky EDR offers automated response capabilities, enhancing efficiency by enabling quick investigation and response to potential threats on Android devices."
"It is a secure solution with a lot of IT management features."
"The product is integrated with endpoint protection. We don't have to implement a separate technology. It provides visibility over the endpoints."
"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."
"The tool's performance and prevention are amazing."
"The tool is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspect of the product is its consolidated features."
"It is a stable solution...It is a very scalable solution."
"I would say that Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud is one of the best, very effective software because of its vulnerability assessment and threat assessments."
"The most valuable component of the solution is the malware detection feature."
"We had the cloud suite of KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud, and its monitoring was fine."
"In Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud, anti-phishing and anti-malware are two very powerful aspects."
"The product works perfectly to prevent malware in our organization."
"It is a powerful tool for zero-day attack prevention."
"The platform's ability to update the database from my device and manage user profiles is quite effective."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud is a very good solution for endpoint protection."
 

Cons

"The solution must provide better security."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response lacks configuration options."
"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."
"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."
"One of the main areas where the tool could improve is its integration capabilities. For example, I find it challenging to integrate it with other solutions. It would be helpful if the tool could make it more open to integration with other tools."
"It needs improvement in communication between the network and endpoint, as well as between endpoint and server."
"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."
"Its high CPU usage also slows down devices, particularly those with lower specifications like Core i3."
"Recently, there was a company which was attacked by phishing emails, and out of 10, it was only blocking three emails."
"The solution’s stability could be improved because we earlier faced an issue where the solution was not detecting file-less malware."
"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."
"Kaspersky doesn't provide local support."
"Kaspersky's cloud solution should be improved because the on-premises features are unavailable in the cloud."
"The tool's update management can be better. In future releases, the addition of a DLP module would be valuable."
"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 tool's pricing was high during the last renewal."
"The tool's pricing is reasonable."
"The solution is not cheap, but it is not expensive."
"I would say that their pricing is generally competitive and attractive."
