I'm facing challenges because the local support is not up to mark, and its features are not comparable to industry-leading solutions such as CrowdStrike and Trend Micro. Kaspersky needs to improve its local support to become a better product for future releases.

Pros

"Kaspersky offers more visible and comprehensive features compared to other products."

"It is a secure solution with a lot of IT management features."
"The advanced detection features are valuable."
"The product's initial setup phase was easy."
"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."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"Tanium has made the process of detecting threats more proactive with its detection. So, the process is easier and more efficient."

"Tanium is a very good product and I would rate it eight or nine out of ten."
"I find the inventory and compliance features of Tanium to be the most impressive."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."

Cons

"Enhancing user-friendliness should be a priority."
"There is room for improvement in its user interface."
"There is room for improvement in the support."
"It needs improvement in communication between the network and endpoint, as well as between endpoint and server."
"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."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response lacks configuration options."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is expensive. It should improve its stability."
"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."
"The performance could improve in future releases. We have had performance issues in specialized web environments, but overall I think the problems are less than 2% of the computer systems being used."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"When working with Tanium, there are some older devices that haven't been patched for a long time, and certain patches are not included in Tanium."
"When working with Tanium, there are some older devices that haven't been patched for a long time, and certain patches are not included in Tanium. I have to search outside to download patches, create bundles, and then perform the task."
"Most of the time, agent-relative issues have to be more equipped with self-healing features. At times, the agent is there, but for some reason, it doesn't report a status. It gives certain problems that are obviously agent-based."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
