An affordable tool that is easy to learn
The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature. During the COVID-19 pandemic, Seqrite developed a feature that can help restore deleted data. If there is a ransomware attack, our company can restore the data as Seqrite keeps a copy in an encrypted and complex format. If there is any ransomware attack, our company can restore the data. If the data is deleted by any of the users in our company, and if we want to recover it, then it can be done through the process that the tool uses to restore data during a ransomware attack. There is a command through which users can recover the data from the laptop.

Provides stable and resource-efficient protection but lacks clear modern security features
Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is highly compatible and rarely causes disruptions in production. It operates transparently and is easy to maintain. The automated response feature helps to mitigate breaches effectively. When comparing with ThreatDown agent, I have noticed that ThreatDown detects behaviors more readily and flags suspicious user activities more clearly. While Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise remains effective, ThreatDown's user interface is more manageable and provides a clearer system overview. The management interface is crucial for maintaining Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise effectively. A significant advantage of Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is its lightweight resource usage. It consumes less memory, CPU, and IO compared to alternatives such as ThreatDown and Bitdefender.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The solution is stable."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The convenience has been great."
"Device Control is very user-friendly."
"The firewall management and intrusion prevention are excellent; those are the critical differences between Symantec and most other products on the market, as they don't manage Windows Firewall or offer intrusion prevention."
"This solution's performance is good, and we've never had any issues with its stability."
"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise’s interface is good to use."
"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is highly compatible and rarely causes disruptions in production; it operates transparently and is easy to maintain."
"The support from Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise is good, they have a quick response time."
"The solution works well overall."
"The monitoring and reporting features are pretty awesome."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"Needs to be more user-friendly; lacks a simple way to search data."
"Symantec's main priority should be enhancing their support, especially local support for different regions."
"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise should focus on cloud security with Microsoft Azure or Amazon AWS rather than having their standard solution."
"Symantec is selling Endpoint Detection Response as a different solution. If it was incorporated in this solution it would be a good thing. This is what the other vendors are doing, such as CrowdStrike. They offer Endpoint Protection(EPP) and Endpoint Detection and Response(EDR) in the same product. If Symantec had something similar, it would be good for customers, they would not need to purchase two different products and then integrate them. They can have a single agent doing two tasks."
"An area for improvement for Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise would be its firewall features, in particular, this solution needs to provide more firewall controls."
"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise used to be a stable product, but now that aspect needs improvement. They also used to provide good technical support, but now not so much, so that needs improvement."
"When we asked the support team to relicense the original piece, the team ghosted us."
"Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise needs to improve its manageability. It is not easy to manage."

"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"I rate Symantec Endpoint Security Enterprise's pricing a two out of ten."
"I would rate it a seven, indicating a satisfactory and moderate level. Despite being somewhat on the expensive side, it aligns with our long-standing relationship with Symantec, and we find it acceptable."
