Abel Browarnik - PeerSpot reviewer
A cost-effective security solution for endpoint protection
The initial setup is complex. It is rare to see an effective endpoint protection system that does not require some effort. It is neither on the cloud nor on-premises. You deploy it on every endpoint or server, irrespective of perimeter. You must use a deployment tool unless you prefer to do it manually on every endpoint or server. We used an automation tool to deploy it. Since we had MSI with us. We had to verify that everything worked, but it didn't take more than two weeks for 1000 endpoints.

Though support needs improvement, the tool is easy to maintain and scale up
Veritas Desktop and Laptop Option's server and GUI are of an old style that could be improved. In the solution, the number of errors we have are not so intuitive to fix, because of which an older person like me needs to be here, making it the last and worst thing of the solution. The support team of the product lacks skills and needs improvement. I would have mentioned that Veritas needs to make their solution available in the cloud, but I am sure they already have it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Nyotron protects your users and does not acquire any threat intelligence."
"First of all, it does the job. It prevents harm to the operating system. Also, the visibility it gives to the user and to the administrator is very good."
"The solution provides an easy GUI allowing you to use it as a backup and restore your computer whenever you want, following administrator rules."
 

Cons

"The main feature that is missing is to have the same solution on servers. Currently it's only protecting the client side, not the server. If they would add the server in the same solution, that would be great."
"The solution should be available on Linux and other platforms, including mobile platforms such as Android and iOS."
"The support team of the product lacks skills and needs improvement."
