Featured Reviews

Rishad Ahmed - PeerSpot reviewer
Reduces the time to detect and respond with moderate pricing
The centralized control feature is excellent. It provides a user-friendly interface for managing items and active endpoints, making it easy for central managers to control the network. I recommend it, but we need some documentation or a presentation from Seqrite. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.
MohammadAlshatreet - PeerSpot reviewer
Resolve support issues promptly while optimizing system resource usage
I use the solution primarily for scanning and identifying threats, which is essential in determining the percentage of resources used, such as CPU and hard disk. It's important to balance resource consumption to maintain operational efficiency. Furthermore, the incident response capabilities allow me to resolve authentication and support issues promptly, ensuring the system operates without downtime.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
"The solution installs very easily."
"Easy to use solution."
"The solution is easy to manage."
"One important feature is the EDR function, necessary for many public customers due to upcoming laws in Germany, which is available through Symantec Endpoint Security Complete."
"The scheduled scans and the active protection were the most valuable because it allowed me to have the systems protected in real-time and also be able to schedule scans so that as new definitions would update, machines could be scanned to make sure that everything was in tip-top shape and there was nothing lurking in the background."
"It is very easy to use and keeps us secure."
"The solution offers very good security features and is comparable to Sophos."
"Symantec End-User Endpoint Security is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of Symantec Endpoint Security is the protection of our systems."
 

Cons

"The security is too week and needs improvement."
"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
"There was an administrative feature, which was available in the previous version, which has been removed. We would like that feature to be added again."
"Need to improved orchestration for broken clients fixes."
"Sometimes, when we are creating a new policy, some of the clients are not being updated with the latest policy."
"The technical support could improve because when you reach level one support there is a lot of delays."
"The areas that need improvement include scanning issues, application control issues, and the detection of malicious files."
"I know they were just bought out by Broadcom and there have been some difficulties with Broadcom as far as getting license renewals, etc. Mostly, due to the fact that it's confusing, even for the vendor, people are turned off by it. The vendors are telling us that it can take weeks for them to get a renewal quote, nevermind the actual renewal."
"Users mostly complain that the solution slows down the system whenever something is scanned."
"The reporting could be improved."
