Cons

"The technical support team should respond in a more timely manner."
"They should include XDR features in the solution."
"The installation process could be more streamlined."

"It does not cover all of our security issues."
"The prices can go down a little bit."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert needs to include a traffic interface."

"The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"Tanium required local admin or root rights on Mac devices, which did not comply with our security policies. This made the solution less suitable for our restrictive environment."
"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."
