Featured Reviews

Shrikant Pillay - PeerSpot reviewer
A stable security solution that is easy to install
The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem.

Sherwin De Claro - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution provides endpoint detection and response with a nice-looking dashboard
The solution is easily scalable because it's in the cloud and we can push the agents using our Cafea solution. We can even deploy the applications to our remote branches easily. We currently have four people using the solution and if the number of computers increases we can scale up by increasing the number of licenses.

Cons

"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium."
"The product could always be more secure."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"Sometimes the program is too complex."
"Having a dashboard that shows the different functions of Norton Security Premium can convince end users that the software is more than just an antivirus solution. This product offers several features, but end users think that it's just one out of the box solution, because the different functions are not explained in detail."
More Norton Security Premium [EOL] cons
"The solution is not easy to use in comparison to other endpoint security solutions."
"The product should improve support and provide more scalable clustering."
"The support could be improved. The response times are slow."
"Configuring notifications is lagging a bit behind the curve as the product should be able to direct exactly where any notification type is sent."
"In my country, having an on-premises deployment model is preferred. In this part of the world, on-premises is still the way many companies want to go. Therefore, they should supply some sort of option that allows for that reality."
"With Sophos EPP Suite, inventory cannot be checked, and external applications cannot be installed."
"One area for improvement in Sophos EPP Suite is the support response time, particularly of the management team. It could be faster because I only got a response from the manager after a few days. If you open a case directly from the website, the response from the technical support agent may have been faster. I didn't open the request from the website, so that could be the reason why the response time took longer."
"Sophos EPP Suite could improve by decreasing the number of resources it uses. There are other solutions that use one-fifth of the resources."

"The solution gives the value for the money."

"I don't pay for a license."
"Security Premium costs around US$100 for three years, which is a little expensive."
"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
More Norton Security Premium [EOL] pricing and cost advice

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price of Sophos EPP Suite is reasonable."
