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.

While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI

I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."

"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."

"They have a lot of features integrated from way back, which shows that the product developers know exactly what they're doing."

"The initial setup is not complex at all. It's very straightforward."

"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."

"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."

"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."

"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pros

"The detection capabilities for malicious activities are effective."

"The dashboard management feature is valuable."

"It offers an easy initial setup."

"The most valuable features of Panda Security Adaptive Defense are the useful hardware information it provides, light on resources, controllable from the console, remote scan functionality, and the blocking of a lot of URL malware."

"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that I like the tool's UI, ease of management, ease of making reports, and the ability to export information easily."

"I like the Panda Security Adaptive Defense cloud usages. Everything is on a single plane of glass like the dashboards. I also like the information I can get about the computers itself."

"Adaptive Defense is pretty easy to use, and Panda support is excellent."

"The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."

Cons

"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."

"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."

"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."

"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."

"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."

"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."

"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."

"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection cons

"t would help if it would monitor the network better."

"For some urgent updates, I don't like the need for the tool to be frequently restarted."

"Their MacOS support isn't that good."

"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."

"Occasionally, we suffer from little bugs that give us the wrong message."

"The implementation was difficult."

"The software has performance issues due to its requirements on the processor, however, these issues are common with other vendors, not just WatchGuard."

"The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 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."

"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."

"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."

"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."

"It is relatively cheap."

"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."

"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection pricing and cost advice

"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."

"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."

"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."

"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."

"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."

"I don't think Panda's license is too expensive, but they're charging more than it's worth. It's a yearly license. For 1,000 endpoints, it's around $18,000."

"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."

"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
