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.
KarthikR1 - PeerSpot reviewer
The solution has an easy setup but needs to mature on cloud environment security
The maturity of the Kubernetes security is absent in Carbon Black CB Defense. The solution has to mature on container security and a lot of cloud environment security. Security is available only for Windows, while security for Linux and Mac is not very strong. The deadlock issue causes me to put more effort into installing an upgrade. The numerous issues with the environment of the product solution should be addressed. Work orders are taking more than two months to get resolved. There's been one issue open for two months, and the solution they gave is being implemented step by step. Still, it is not meeting the requirements and breaking the system. Hence, our business is completely disturbed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution installs very easily."
"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the fact that it is one of the best EDR tools in the market."
"Some of the valuable features I have found are the online documentation of the solution is well organized and thorough. I like the simplicity of bypass and the visualization of the active components."
"Carbon Black has very good market strategies."
"The product enables device controls, helping us protect the devices and prevent data leakages."
"I like its reporting."
"Carbon Black Cb Defense has a nice component called Alert Triage. It contains full details of the process execution "kill chain" and "go live" for immediate remediation."
"The most valuable feature is that it detects and stops malicious executables."
"The solution has a very nice API on the back end for remoting into a system and executing scripts or utilizing self automation."
 

Cons

"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
"The security is too week and needs improvement."
"When you view the triage, it will show you everything within a given time frame, and not only the attack that caused the alert, which is what I want to see. It shows you all the events during that time, and that can be quite confusing."
"The directions for Splunk are spot on, but it is difficult to find anything on integration with AlienVault,"
"Needs improvement in the area of infrastructure for on-premise installation.​"
"Right now, Carbon Black CB Defense doesn't support cloud computing and Kubernetes."
"The feature set for the firewall needs improvement."
"Carbon Black needs to do a better job of proving their platform in the industry, and providing a bit more access to do industry testing with real world examples to help prove their platform."
"Carbon Black has limited capability to integrate with Rapid7."
"It would be nice to have additional forensic tools that you can build into the back end."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is more expensive, but it's worth it. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"​The cost/benefit factor has great relevance in Cb Defense implementations​."
"We have branches, we have different companies, but we cannot buy less than 100 licenses. This does not make sense to me... It should be more flexible. I can understand their saying, "Okay, to be a customer you need 100," but to add on to that number it should be something very straightforward. If I need to add five, for example, I shouldn't need to add 100."
"The pricing is very high."
"The pricing [is] more or less the same as other similar solutions."
"The licensing cost is on the more expensive side, but I thought it was worth it because they did a good job. It was one of the vendors I truly didn't have to worry about too much until this latest upgrade."
"The cost is a considerable factor, but the benefit factor is the most important. When you compare it with other products, the price is high. Carbon Black will negotiate the price."
"The license is annual. It's a standard license."
