Automated security monitoring increases efficiency, but market visibility needs improvement
I am currently evaluating Stellar Cyber Open XDR in terms of their support. I do not see any major areas for improvement as of now. Their support is good, and the team is small, enabling them to cater to everyone effectively. While I have not encountered significant drawbacks so far, market penetration is challenging due to the product's newness, despite its flexibility and customization features. I find their user interface to be quite good.

Easy to use and competitively priced
Honestly, the product needs to continue the way it is, and I feel that everything will be fine. I haven't had any reasons to complain about the product. The product doesn’t offer MDM functionality under its current licensing model. In the future, I want the product to offer MDM. It can allow me to manage my mobile device more efficiently and effectively. Currently, there is a need for a separate license to be added to Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response to be able to use the MDM part. If both are bundled up under the same license, the administration part can be made easier.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Stellar Cyber Open XDR offers these functionalities at a more affordable price, making it easier for me to position it with price-sensitive customers."
"It can integrate with almost any cybersecurity tool available in the market."
"The solution has great blocking features."
"I've mainly found the antivirus and antispyware features valuable. The documentation is okay as well."
"A great feature of this solution is that it is very well-integrated with antivirus software. Other ADR solutions are implemented as single technologies and are not integrated with the provider, but Symantec offers AV plus ADR."
"The Detection vulnerability is very effective."
"In Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response, the most valuable features are threat hunting and that customers can gather logs from multiple computers and servers in one place."
"The solution does all that we expect it to do."
"The solution can scale well."
"IPS and the user interface are good features."
 

Cons

"I would rate the stability at about five to six. The platform requires some fine-tuning, especially when integrating data sources and creating connectors."
"Support is an issue because they have a limited number of resources."
"They need to improve their cloud presence."
"The GUI could be better."
"The interface has many issues."
"Technical support is not as good as we expect, and resolving problems should be more timely."
"The interface is very complicated."
"Its UI could be more user-friendly."
"One potential area for improvement in Symantec EDR is the reporting engine."
"In the future, it would be nice to have playbooks in the tool, to allow for some of the common activities to be automated. For example, some of the scannings of the malware can be too manual for a specific device. Additionally, a vulnerability manager would be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It’s a single license platform."
"It's a yearly subscription."
"The price is okay, but it really depends on the customer's requirements."
"The price is really high and it should be lower."
"The more devices we have the more expensive it becomes, which is where the challenge is."
"The product is cheap."
"The price is reasonable."
"Of late, because of the Broadcom purchase, its price has been increasing."
"We have a yearly subscription, and the pricing is fair."
