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.
Nikunj Kamboj - PeerSpot reviewer
Integrates well with our existing SIEM tool and helps in identifying suspicious activities
The solution's integration with our existing security infrastructure is good. Whenever we have any alert in VMware Carbon Black Endpoint, we can easily that alert in our SIEM tool and check logs from the SIEM tool itself. VMware Carbon Black Endpoint is just a secondary security tool for us, and we are just monitoring the alerts from it. The solution's behavioral analytics feature helps in identifying suspicious activities pretty well. Whenever we have even a small thing, we get an alert. The solution is deployed on the cloud in our organization. Performance-wise, the solution is doing great in terms of connecting to the host directly. Performing a malware scan usually takes a lot of time, more than 24 hours. A malware scan is something that we do only on Carbon Black for the old endpoint devices and servers. It used to take sometimes three days to perform. I would recommend the solution to other users. Overall, I rate the solution an eight 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

"Seqrite has significantly reduced the time it takes to detect and respond."
"The solution installs very easily."
"The solution has a library where we can have multiple threat intels onboarded. We just have to subscribe to a particular site intel and they'll provide us with all of the truncated details so that we can create IOCs and alerts on the basis of those IOCs."
"It has the best live response feature."
"The software uses very few resources; it is almost invisible to the end user."
"The threat analysis functionality is good."
"Once the solution is installed and configured correctly it does not require a lot of hands-on attention until you need upgrading."
"What I like the most about it is the dynamic grouping, where you get to group endpoints based on setup criteria. That's pretty cool. I like the simplified policy management and simplified white-listing process."
"I like its protection very much. It protects and allows us to lock the environment pretty tightly. Nothing that is not approved through Carbon Black can run in the environment. There is no default. Everything goes through Carbon Black Protect, and everything has to be first approved. Every software is considered to be guilty before prove innocent."
"I rate Carbon Black CB Defense an eight out of ten for the ease of its initial setup."
 

Cons

"The solution should focus on security, documentation, and simplicity for beginners."
"The security is too week and needs improvement."
"The initial setup is complex."
"CB Defense could be more compatible with Linux, and its cloud provision could be improved."
"The solution needs better overall compatibility with other products."
"It is difficult to extract reports for ongoing scans"
"I haven't run into anything that needs improvement. The website interface can be a little bit better, but it's still good as compared to most others."
"The solution needs expanded endpoint query tools."
"The local technical support is very poor, but the support from headquarters is very nice."
"The node management could be much better. The one thing that they cannot do very easily is change the tenant from a backend."
