Urs Schuerch - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Stable product with an ability to build complex roles
We use Tanium as an EDR solution for managing end-user devices and servers The product is granular and can build complex roles compared to other EDR vendors. Tanium's dashboard UI could be similar to CrowdStrike. We have been using Tanium for two and a half years. The product is stable. I rate…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"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."
"It is an easy-to-use and easy-to-configure product."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very scalable."
"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"When I push a quick update, it's done right away, and I can rescan immediately to confirm completion within minutes."
"I would say Tanium is the best tool for vulnerability management."
"The security features are very valuable."
"I like the fact that you can create patching campaigns depending on the area of your network that you want to address first. I like the ability it has to make several campaigns that work in parallel."
"The solution is scalable and helps to understand how infrastructure works. It helps to improve the health of the organization."
"I find the inventory and compliance features of Tanium to be the most impressive."
"Tanium's most valuable features are patch management, inventory, and distribution software."
"Threat hunting is a very good feature on Tanium. We have just started using it and have not used it extensively."
 

Cons

"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."
"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
"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."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."
"It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"When working with Tanium, there are some older devices that haven't been patched for a long time, and certain patches are not included in Tanium."
"The most painful thing is the interface. It's a bit unclear sometimes."
"It is not really additional functions, or the features that are needed, rather the complexity would be reduced based on the number of modules required to put together a comprehensive operational security and risk compliance model."
"The solution lacks mobility."
"Any movement into a SaaS solution has challenges since the processes and data flows are not well defined. Hence, you need to build it at the same time."
"Tanium’s scalability could be improved."
"The solution can give a lot of false positives."
"The solution needs to improve the reporting and tracking capabilities."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"Work on a price tier plan."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"There is an annual license required to use this solution."
"The solution offers value for money."
"The solution is expensive but it's a good investment."
"The product's pricing differs from region to region depending on negotiations and the number of endpoints."
"Tanium is a more expensive solution in Latin America than some of the competitors, such as BigFix."
"It's an expensive solution. It would be nice if the cost were lower."
"It is higher than some competitors in the market."
