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

"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The convenience has been great."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The biggest feature out of CarbonBlack is its ability to dive in with more depth. You can look at the entire kill chain and understand, not only if an alarm or identified incident is truly a true security issue versus a false positive, and it allows us to backtrack and figure out why it actually happened and how it got into the environment."
"You can deploy it through the cloud so that even if your stuff is outside of your controlled environment, you are still under control, based on the policies you create. The policies are controlled through the cloud. For example, if I don't allow anyone to do a certain activity or to install a particular app, and a consultant or a partner who is not part of our environment is doing so, it will stop them as well."
"Behavioral Monitoring stops known malicious events before they even begin."
"The whole purpose of the product, like application control, is very good, and also if you need to update some policies, it works well and instantly."
"It actually does some heuristics, and some behavioral analysis."
"CB Defense is more powerful, and you can take more actions than others. Its security features and signatures are constantly updated, so it is more effective than other security solutions."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Once the solution is installed and configured correctly it does not require a lot of hands-on attention until you need upgrading."
 

Cons

"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"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."
"The node management could be much better. The one thing that they cannot do very easily is change the tenant from a backend."
"A search bar in the investigation page and some AI-related tasks like outgoing alerts, or recent tactics that are being used in the market, must be embedded in the tool so that it's easier to find alerts."
"I would like to see the user credentials feature improved. I would also like to see more reporting features and better ways to roll the reports out."
"The product's reporting capabilities are an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The local technical support is very poor, but the support from headquarters is very nice."
"The solution would be more effective if there was a way to block automatically based on behavior."
"Sensor deployment requires extensive fine-tuning, and creating deployment packages is time-consuming."
"There's some disparity between the on-premise and the cloud type of application."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing fee is 200 Bangladeshi Taka per client per year."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The product’s price is less expensive than other vendors."
"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."
"Its pricing was very good, which is one of the reasons I went to it as an alternative. It is on a yearly basis. There are no additional fees."
"Overall, it was cost-effective too."
"VMware Carbon Black Endpoint is an expensive product."
"This is a really expensive product and we pay licensing fees on a yearly basis."
"Carbon Black might be a touch more expensive than Symantec. They tend to get a premium for their capabilities. They're sort of an industry leader in a lot of areas with the functionality that they provide."
"The price for the solution is completely at government level, meaning one which is very high."
