Ahmed El Kayal - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly interface simplifies management while performance issues during scanning need addressing
Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is easy to implement and has a user-friendly interface. It stands out as an antivirus and malware protection solution due to its extensive feeds and resources for antivirus signatures. These capabilities enable effective malware protection. Additionally, it offers scalability as any endpoint added to Active Directory can be easily integrated by Kaspersky Security Center. Its straightforward deployment and ease of management are other valuable features. It does not require an advanced engineer to manage, and resources are readily available online, making it accessible and scalable.

Good customers support and offers good inventory management
It maintains our security posture I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention. It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues. I have experience with this solution.  I have contacted the support team. They are good…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features for us include data security, as well as web browsing and password management security measures."
"The most valuable features of this solution are the firewall, the IPS, and the patch deployment."
"The product is quite scalable."
"I like that we can use it across all the platforms like PC, Mac, Linux, iOS, and all systems for protection. I also like that we can use it for different cloud sessions and different unified systems. It's available on all the vulnerability assessments including, web filtering, email filtering, test protection, anomaly control, and management. There are more than enough benefits available on Kaspersky."
"The performance is good. It doesn't use a lot of resources, which is crucial for us."
"The reporting feature is good. Also, the device control is good."
"It helps to improve our security for our mobile and VMware infrastructure. The remote tasks are great."
"The signature update is done securely."
"Kaspersky TOTAL Security for Business provides central management for protection of devices, mitigating attacks effectively."
"I like the inventory management. I also like behavior detection and exploit prevention."
"Kaspersky offers a large number of robust default policies, such as USB blockage. I really like this feature."
 

Cons

"We are having some troubles because some American companies we work with don't want to work with Kaspersky."
"I would like to see better reporting."
"This product could be improved by integration with Linux. The one limitation this product has is that it's not compatible with and doesn't offer protection for Linux servers. It could also be easier to configure."
"It would be preferable if the product were more proactive and more modern in its approach to security and protection."
"The product is expensive."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business could improve the flexibility of use."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business’s interface could be easier to understand when displaying the activities during configuration processes."
"Reaching their support team can be difficult."
"One significant difference is the lack of on-site support from Kaspersky. Symantec has a local team in Pakistan with representatives I can contact directly for troubleshooting and support. On the other hand, Kaspersky doesn't provide the same level of local resources. If I have an issue, I need to draft an email and send it to a Kaspersky help center."
"The deployment process could be clarified, specifically around the ability to push the security application to clients from the central servers, as we faced issues with this."
"It's been good for months but bad on older endpoints. Only performance issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have approximately 700 licenses for this solution and we pay annually."
"I don't remember exactly what the licenses cost, but it's not too expensive. It's affordable, especially when you are dealing with on-prem. However, I don't know about the new prices because we are in the process of buying support."
"For 300 nodes, we pay about 15,000 Malaysian Ringgit ($3,500 USD)."
"The price of the solution is reasonable. It is less costly compared to competitors."
"I prefer paying for a yearly license because it has some discounts. One of the companies I work for pays for the Business Select license, for 100 users."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten. You need to pay extra costs for additional modules. The product's licensing costs are yearly."
"There is an annual license required to use Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business."
"Pricing is very competitive and licensing is very much ethical."
"The price is below average."
