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.

MojammelHossain - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides comprehensive multi-layer server protection and simplifies hybrid infrastructure management
In the area of policy management and overall administration, Trend Micro Deep Security could improve some settings that require attention. Their UI/UX also needs improvement to make it more user-friendly. If someone is not well-versed in Trend Micro Deep Security or lacks expertise, they can't use or utilize these tools effectively. Therefore, user experience improvement is most crucial, along with enhancements in policy management and the accuracy of the IPS, IDS features for real-time protection. It is primarily focused on the firewall policy management, and if any server is blocked through any rule, a proactive dashboard or alert would be helpful.
