Reliable and good support but can be expensive
I have no real complaints about the solution. Threat detection could be better. They need to enhance their threat intelligence feeds. We would like to have more IOCs or more trade intelligence to not only rely on the intelligence of the engineer in charge but to have some threat intelligence and some seeds of IOCs and to have the host have some artificial intelligence to reduce the number of false positives. I don't see this solution being very scalable. The solution is pricey.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The stability of the RSA NetWitness Endpoint is very good."
"This solution allows us to locate the malware in real-time."
"The log correlation is good."
"The interface of this solution is very flexible and easy to use."
"The most valuable feature is the way it captures the traffic, and it contains every detail of the communication."
"NetWitness Endpoint's most valuable features are its interoperability across many different operating systems and the ease of pivoting from network to endpoint via a single console."
"It is very easy to use, and its usability is great. The use cases are also very easy. The visualizations of the use cases are magnificent. You cannot find this in any other solution. From my point of view, it is great."
"It helps our security team respond more accurately when there are threats, then we get less false positives or negatives."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"Valuable features include good scanning, very light footprint and management console that the client can access and (just as important) in which I can see status of groups of computers (I am a consultant, IT role)."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very scalable."
 

Cons

"RSA NetWitness Network could improve on integration with non-native application integration."
"The solution is modular, for example you can buy the RSA ePack, which you buy as a module is not part of the conduit solution. They could include it and have it as an all-in-one solution."
"We would like to see the hunting and investigation features of this solution improved, in order to provide better visibility of issues."
"Threat detection could be better."
"NetWitness Endpoint's blocking feature does not work properly - if there's a malicious process, it's not possible to kill it via a custom rule unless and until it's flagged as malicious."
"The solution lacks a reporting engine."
"The contamination feature could be improved."
"This solution needs an upgrade in reporting. I have heard from RSA that they are working on this, but as of yet it is not available."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"The reporting is the weakest part of the Webroot console. Frequently, I export to Excel to massage something into it to pass on to others."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is highly scalable. It can be bought based on your requirements."
"They can easily adjust if you have the requirements which are required. If you have a budget cut or a budget constraint, they can bend."
"The cost depends on the number of endpoints that you want to monitor, but it is not expensive."
"We are on a three-year contract to use RSA NetWitness Network."
"I do not have any opinion on the pricing or licensing of the product."
"The price of the solution depends on the environment. If the environment is large then it will cost more. However, the larger the environment with more endpoints, you will receive an increased discount. If the environment is very small, then you might think it is expensive. It is always better to buy in bulk to receive a discount. The minimum number of assets is usually 500, with discounts on 1000 and 2000."
"With RSA, there is flexibility in choosing the service, products, and the range that meets your requirement, as well as they are flexible in terms of pricing."
"NetWitness Endpoint is less costly than its competitors, but it offers fewer features."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"I think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."
"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."
"The pricing is high."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
