Long-term licensing has provided reliable lightweight protection for commercial customers and maintains strong performance without disrupting existing security tools
Kaspersky Total Security is a lightweight solution that does not slow down Windows. In many years of use for my customers, I have not had any broken software or other problems. Safe Money technology is available in the product, but I do not use it because my customers have other security solutions that intercept malware before Kaspersky on the firewall and networking firewall of LAN. I sell the various solutions of next generation, Optimum, and Advanced through MCP licensing.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Kaspersky Total Security has valuable reporting features regarding visibility for trusted sites and safe browsing."
"Kaspersky Total Security is a light agent."
"I find the solution to be very stable in terms of security and protection of the data."
"The most beneficial feature of Kaspersky Total Security for me is its all-in-one antivirus solution with continuous signature updates for effective malware detection and prevention."
"The solution is useful for protecting laptops."
"It automatically identifies potential threats in emails, websites, and documents, swiftly blocking or quarantining anything harmful to prevent any damage or infection to my system."
"Kaspersky Total Security provides a good return on investment by improving data security and reducing costs by sixty percent with its robust security features."
"The solution is efficient."
"Low performance requirements."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
 

Cons

"When you get the license number, there isn't a clear section in the program's interface that leads you to renew your license. You have to look and search a lot about it."
"The solution’s security could be improved."
"Kaspersky has to improve its response when there is an incident. They need to respond faster."
"The authorization process could be faster."
"Kaspersky Total Security’s stability and performance need improvement."
"The solution's automation capabilities is an area where certain improvements are required."
"There is room for improving security."
"The tool could be cheaper."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
