Rodrigo Censi - PeerSpot reviewer
Patch management and integration capabilities drive effective endpoint response management
We work with Kaspersky and two modalities: the Censi final and Censi license. Most of our clients work in financial areas and industry. Our regular enterprise business relies on these solutions Kaspersky is viable with ADR; the Endpoint Detection response feature and the BitLocker management…
Sagar Shekhar - PeerSpot reviewer
An open-source tool that offers great automation capabilities
Red Canary MDR generates a lot of output, so it would be good if, in the end, it generates a summary of all the previous attacks and what was the outcome of a single attack, especially so that it becomes easy for the user to see the summary and analyze the whole thing. In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users.

"The solution does a good job of filtering and blocking unusual traffic."
"I recommended Red Canary to my friends who work in other organizations."

Cons

"Kaspersky EDR lacks protection from recent ransomware."
"We'd like more integrations to be available in the future."
"The system can be heavy, slowing down performance."

"There are some cases that take three days to deal with. It's too long."
"Could include some additional protection."
"I would like there to be an on-premise version of this solution for our data centers because of the proliferation of online threats."
"The price could always be better."
"In general, the solution currently fails to provide a summary to its users."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is worth its cost so I rate pricing a ten out of ten."
"There is an annual license to use Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response. The price overall is a bit expensive when compared to other solutions. There are not any additional fees other than the license."
"Kaspersky is licensed on a yearly basis."
"The product has a valuable pricing model. We need to purchase its monthly subscription."
"The solution’s pricing is okay."
"The solution isn't the cheapest considering what you get. I would rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The license for EDR costs about 1,000 pesos per user. I would rate the pricing as four out of five."
"I have not compared Red Canary to other solutions to know if the price is high or low. However, I have found the price of this solution fair and reasonable, it cost approximately $100 per year, per device. If they could provide the solution for $50 per year, per device, it would be better."
"The solution could vary in price depending on how many endpoints a company has."
"Red Canary MDR I use is an open-source tool."
