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.
Anas Anas - PeerSpot reviewer
Effective threat predictions, simple to deploy, and light on resources
Malwarebytes's initial setup is simple. It is easy to deploy and configure the policies and the configuration. I deployed Malwarebytes for one customer and I did it in under two days. They had approximately 50 users, it took approximately an hour. The steps I took for the implementation were downloading the Malwarebytes management console from the site, installing it, then running the discovery tool, scanning my network, and checking all of the PCs on my network. It's already pre-configured, you don't need to configure anything. The only configuration that I did on the administration console was some of the exclusion from the scan. This is the only rule that I have created. I rate the initial setup of Malwarebytes a ten out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"As far as it functions, it works fine."
"The solution has been quite stable."
"One of the most valuable features is that it's quite secure. I'm satisfied with this solution."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very powerful tool for us. We use a lot of third-party software that integrates well with the solution."
"We used to have a lot of phishing attacks and all these kind of things for end-users so we decided that we needed endpoint security. We evaluated some solutions and found that Kaspersky is the most appropriate in terms of endpoint security and the speed of the user machine. The encryption is a major factor from our end."
"Ability to specify the level of protection on devices,"
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business detects malware and is easy to configure."
"It has a very good firewall, which lets you isolate your devices depending on the groups."
"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."
"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."
"It comprehensively finds and removes malicious software."
"I was very satisfied with Malwarebytes in terms of its antivirus abilities."
"The pricing of the product is very good."
"I like the solution's ability to detect potentially unwanted programs. For some reason, it seems superior to other solutions, or at least in comparison to McAfee."
"The installation process is very easy, especially since it is on the cloud."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
 

Cons

"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business doesn't have a built-in DLP (data loss prevention) solution."
"It is not very good for the performance of the system, and especially with older devices, it has a noticeable impact."
"I'd like Kaspersky to be more stable and secure."
"The product is expensive."
"The training provided by the vendor to resellers and end users needs to be improved"
"When it comes to handling the expiration of licenses, the solution should give a company more time to set up a renewal. It happens too abruptly right now."
"The solution could provide more integration."
"The installation is technical. You need to be certified."
"Malwarebytes should improve its mobile compatibility."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"A solution must be installed in the main gateway to give an overview of the incoming and outgoing traffic. The technical support team's response time should be faster."
"There is room for improvement in the way it is deployed, in terms of being able to distribute it. Right now we have to get our hands on a machine to deploy it. It would be nice if there was an easier system."
"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."
"We had a little performance problem with the solution, but that's been resolved. Since then, it's been running well."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing is based per agent. You can get discounts if you have more agents."
"Licensing costs are on a yearly basis."
"We have been using a yearly subscription and feel that pricing could be better. Perhaps, discounts could be given, during the renewal process, to those who have been customers for some time."
"The solution requires a license and there are different license packages depending on the number of users you need."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business' pricing is reasonable, and licensing costs are annual."
"The pricing is a bit more expensive than other products."
"The tool is expensive."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."
"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."
"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."
"Yearly, it is around $50 per client."
"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
