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.

Provides a single dashboard, integrates well, and has predictive machine learning
Microsoft's new Azure Code Signing is causing a lot of issues for us with One Endpoint Security. We currently have two systems in operation, on-prem and SaaS, and many of the agents won't upgrade beyond version B11564 because these newer versions require Azure Code Signing compliance on the endpoint. If we are not up to date with our Windows updates, we don't have this compliance. Irrespective of the Windows version we are running, we have to apply patches to the machines, if the OS is not damaged, to make them compliant. After that, we can upgrade to the latest version of the respective agent. This process also applies to both Deep Security and Workload Security. I have two production servers: one for Windows and another for Mac. These servers are available in both on-premise and SaaS versions. Additionally, I have a test server that is located on-premises. The significant distinction with the SaaS version is the absence of a test server where I can install a new version. This means I can't allow the agents on it to upgrade and then perform testing. In contrast, with the production SaaS version of One Endpoint Security, I have numerous agents transitioning and coming online. It's essential that these agents upgrade to a newer version. Among these agents, there are five or six different versions, not counting the really old ones that have yet to upgrade due to ACS non-compliance. I can't leave the testing phase for an extended period because I still have outdated agents that need to be updated. These agents can't be left hanging while I wait to test the newest version that has just been released. New versions seem to come out every couple of months in the SaaS environment. In the past, when I solely used the on-premises version, I would review security bulletins for the SaaS version to identify any issues. I'm apprehensive about potential future situations involving this, primarily because the majority of our agents now operate on the cloud version. If a problem is discovered, rolling back on those agents would be challenging. It would require careful operation to revert them to a different version. The on-premises version of One Endpoint Security has an update function that allows us to manually update a bunch of servers. For example, if I just turned on a policy, I can force the agents to quickly download the policy and start following the update procedure or update settings. However, this function is not available in the SaaS version. This is because the system cannot communicate with the agent through the firewall. The SaaS version has an automatic update function and an update source entry in the update agents sub-menu, but it does not have a way to force agents to update. This is a problem because we cannot automatically update the agents. We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command. Currently, we have no choice but to wait until the agents find the updates themselves.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We like how it can check for issues. That includes files and web browsers."
"The most valuable feature is the multifunctional protection."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"The antivirus aspect of the solution is very good."
"Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable."
"With the heightened security around phishing, identity theft, and malware, this is a good product."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"The most valuable feature is the quick installation."
"It's very good and efficient."
"This solution protects us from virus attacks before they affect the organization."
"Its threat-hunting capabilities and the information about the known threats are the most available features. It can easily catch any threat in our environment."
"The most valuable feature is that it's normal, and not for a specific server."
"The solution offers quick and timely updates."
"This is a very stable product and we plan to continue using it."
"The nano protection and device control are great."
"I have opened three tickets with the technical support and they were responsive and asked me to send them my logs."
 

Cons

"Sometimes the program is too complex."
"The product could always be more secure."
"I don't like the password manager of Norton Security Premium."
"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."
"Security Premium's cost could be lower."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"The solution can improve the security modules."
"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"We had some problems with Trend Micro Apex One doing the updates and patches. Some of the other vendor's support has said that Trend Micro Apex One receives database signatures updates too late."
"We sometimes face issues with policies and rules while working with Apex One. They sometimes do not work."
"The integration is lacking in Trend Micro Apex One. It does not integrate well with Microsoft p solutions. For example, with Office 365, we have to buy another solution for mail protection. That's why we are assessing Microsoft Defender 365 because we have an email from Microsoft, an endpoint from Microsoft, and we use Windows systems."
"I would like to see the initial setup simplified to make it less complicated, and the price reduced."
"I would like to have DLP features implemented into Vision One Security."
"The product can be a bit heavy."
"The customization has room for improvement."
"In the next release, I would like to see IBS included in OfficeScan."

"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."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"I don't pay for a license."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"Its price is competitive."
"There are licenses for Apex One's individual security features, so it depends on what the customer needs. But in general, Trend Micro is cheap, and many customers require it."
"The price for Trend Micro is reasonable."
"When compared with other solutions, the price could be better."
"It is cost-efficient."
"It's an annual subscription."
"Its pricing was good. It is very competitive with all the other vendors."
