Enables faster updates and provides an easy-to-use user interface

I have an advanced license that includes all features. Though we have the license, we cannot use it completely because it is not enabled in the Microsoft tier. It does not make sense. We do not want to buy it separately because the price is different if we buy separate licenses.

Central console streamlines patch monitoring and device management effortlessly

WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection is good and easy to set up. I provide an installation file for every client through my domain controller and GPO, and it works properly. We have faced no incidents with viruses or network breaches, and it's easy to monitor patches. I can use remote desktop from the central console. The solution also saves my time because, being the only one handling it, I can monitor all devices easily.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"SonicWall Capture Client's scalability is nice."

"The product’s interface is easy to use."

"Considering other products, SonicWall Capture Client has two differentiators."

"SonicWall Capture Client offers a cost-effective solution that's cheaper compared to other vendors like CrowdStrike."

"Overall, what I love the most about SonicWall Capture Client is its management console. SonicWall Capture Client also has the intelligence to tell you which computer is online, what OS it uses, etc. I also found the rollback feature and SentinelOne integration valuable in SonicWall Capture Client. Rollback is a powerful feature of the solution because it's similar to locking your endpoint during an attack, so you won't have to pay the hackers, particularly during ransomware attacks. That feature in SonicWall Capture Client allows you to get back your endpoint or make your endpoint right again after an attack. I also like that it isn't complex to remove the engine error from the endpoint because you only have to provide the security key from SonicWall Capture Client, so the process is simple. It's not complex."

"The initial setup is straightforward."

"The most valuable features of SonicWall Capture Client are CSC (Capture Security Center), RTDMI (Real-Time Deep Memory Inspection), and the deep memory inspection feature."

"The solution serves as a very stable platform."

More SonicWall Capture Client pros

"The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection."

"We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes."

"On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly."

"There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection."

"F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates."

"The notifications and patch management features are valuable."

"WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection is good and easy to set up."

"Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected."

Cons

"SonicWall Capture Client should use less of our PC's memory, as it tends to slow down the performance."

"SonicWall Capture Client could be made a little lighter than it currently is in terms of memory consumption."

"The vulnerability reports need to be better. Windows Defender detected some issues that SonicWall Capture Client couldn't."

"The implementation is not easy."

"An area for improvement in SonicWall Capture Client is TenantCloud support. Suppose you want to implement SonicWall Capture Client. You'll have to register it on MySonicWall. Then once your SonicWall Capture Client license expires and you don't want to renew it, you can't delete it from your MySonicWall account, so that's an area for improvement."

"The biggest issue with SonicWall Capture Client is network latency."

"They should improve their user interface."

"Technical support from SonicWall has room for improvement. While their escalation process is understandable, it can be time-consuming as all logs need to be provided multiple times across different service levels."

More SonicWall Capture Client cons

"Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved."

"There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge."

"The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve."

"But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software."

"The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly."

"I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved."

"There is no technical support available in the Middle East."

"One problem is that the solution takes too much RAM from the client."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Here in Indonesia, SonicWall Capture Client costs five hundred thousand rupiahs for every endpoint. If I'm correct, you only have to pay the licensing fee, and there's no additional fee. To me, the pricing for SonicWall Capture Client is four out of five."

"The product is very expensive."

"You have to pay for the solution, and a lot of customers do not want to pay."

"The price is comparable."

"If you purchase licenses in bulk the price of the licenses can decrease."

"The product has average pricing."

"The cost of the solution depends on the size of the company and where the licenses are being ordered from."

"We pay a yearly licensing fee of about €20 per computer."
