ESET Endpoint Protection Platform Reviews

We use this solution mainly for devices, for antivirus. It also has a firewall that's the extra layer of protection besides the 40-bit file.

We also have a console that we can monitor and get alerts if a certain device is attacked. If there is an attack, we quarantine or upgrade.

We have not had problems with the solution. Whenever we were attacked, it would protect our devices.

The tools and the features available with this solution are very competitive. It is always updated to prevent upcoming attacks.

We set up our devices to update on a daily basis. We also run our weekly scan each week. Doing it this way, we never had any problems.

I would say this product can be improved if it fully protected everything like consolidated.

I suspect there will be some changes required to ESET because some experts I know just moved to MDR. I can imagine there might be some issues that were not fully covered by the ESET Endpoint that would be covered by MDR that we're on now.

I have been using this solution for about ten years.

My impression is that it is a very stable solution because we've been using it for ten years and are very happy with it.

The scalability varies because there are lots of different packages. They have antivirus, Endpoint Security, and many different versions. They also have up to personal and student licenses. So it is very flexible.

We work with the third-party partner that we were recommended by ESET. We have always worked with these guys and they have always been on the ground whenever they are needed. They have always assisted and came through for us.

I would say the customer service is excellent.

Positive

Previously we used Norton Antivirus. If I remember correctly, some incidents happened then and we lost confidence in them. That's why we moved to ESET.

The initial setup was easy. I would rate it a ten out of ten.

When you use these solutions, you always have to go through a partner. So, because we were going through a partner, they were the ones who helped us deploy it.

I would rate ESET's pricing plan an eight out of ten, with one being cheap and 10 being expensive.

I would recommend this solution because it's quite stable and it does what it's supposed to do and that's good enough.

We have used this solution both personally and in our organization. At one point, we actually had up to 100 users connected using ESET.

I would rate ESET as an overall product, an eight out of ten.

This is a security solution and it is used to protect all of the client's systems. It is for data protection.

It's not using too much system capacity or memory. It's quite light. It's like there's nothing on the PC, yet it's working there behind the scenes. 

From my side, the best thing is the support from ESET headquarters. When we have a problem in two hours or three hours, we find a solution via ESET.

It is stable. 

It can scale as well. 

The pricing is reasonable.

There is no such thing as a 100% secure system. That said, the main problems are coming from the users and how they use the system, including how they open emails, go to the internet, et cetera. Maybe if they have a firewall system paired with ESET, so there are not as many concerns around the security of the WAN, that would be better. 

We hope that they can learn from and react to threats faster so that we are more protected in the future as new items arise. They need to update the system faster to ensure security is there in the case of new events. 

When users renew licenses, they should offer a discount.

I've been dealing with the solution since 2016. I've used it for seven years now. 

The solution is very stable. There are no bugs or glitches, and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

We have two companies here we've contracted with. One is with 750 computers and another one is with 100 PCs. 

The solution can scale. 

The technical support is really good. they are helpful, fast, and responsive. 

That said, sometimes, when we have a problem, we need a quick response, and they have many things to do on their side, so it can take two or three hours sometimes to get a reply from them.

Positive

It's quite simple to set up. People sometimes don't want to make much effort, however, technically, it's quite simple to implement the solution. They can do it themselves, yet we are always there, ready to install the solution.

How many people we need to deploy the solution depends. In the beginning, we can use one engineer to deploy the solution. However, it depends on the number of computers. If we install it on about ten PCs, for example, we can also handle the training for the local IT people who can then make the installation.

We do not normally handle the maintenance afterward. However, depending on the contract, we can assist with support. Usually, we have two engineers that can assist our clients if they need help.

We can install the solution for clients. 

The ROI is high since using the product can avoid many problems. I'd rate the ROI five out of five. 

The price is good when you compare it to other solutions. That said, when the client needs to renew the license for the next year, it is the same price. Maybe they can do a discount for renewing the license. That would make it more attractive.

The license is annual. Users can also choose to do a three-year license. 

If a client needs extra features, we need to discuss locally so we understand how we can help the customer and how much it will cost.

I'd rate it four out of five in terms of affordability, with one point taken off for issues around renewing the license. 

I've been looking into SentinelOne.

I'm a reseller. We are selling, installing, and doing training for the users.

We deal with the latest version of the solution.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The primary use case of ESET Endpoint Security is the antivirus.

The most valuable features of this solution are, of course, the IPS/IDS, Intrusion Prevention, Intrusion Detection, and Antivirus.

I believe I can find it in the most recent version in a sandbox. Network Security in a Sandbox It includes seven different tools, including network security, IPS/IDS, and ESET which is also valuable.

It is easy to use.

The user interface is very easy. 

API integration is good. 

They have an iteration tool that makes the API connection flawless.

I don't see changing EDR in the cloud's future. Tool for being proactive. The proactive feature is excellent, but I do not believe ESET will make any changes to this feature in the future. But, proactive is excellent.

I would like to see ESET include the Proactive feature. The process is killed by decision support. Unplug the endpoint book station from the network.

If you do not use Cynet, it must be added to ESET Endpoint.

I have worked with ESET Endpoint Security for five years.

I have a three-year service agreement with ESET to sell green. It's been three years, and I believe it's near the end of the year. 

 I have no issues with ESET; it's the workstation's ESET and Cynet. I believe are perfect solutions.

I am working with EDR, it's a full version. We have updated it to the latest version.

It is a central update, it's cloud maintenance.

Because I do not have any sensitive data, it is sufficient to use the public cloud.

ESET Endpoint Security is very stable.

All of the update releases are very established.

I would rate the stability a nine, or ten out of ten.

I have not experimented with scalability.

With servers, we have approximately 3, 000 users in my department. This includes the hardware and virtual servers.

We have no issues with the local technical support team that we use in Israel.

I would rate them a five out of five.

They are excellent. 

They respond quickly and speak the language, which is beneficial.

I am working with a new Endpoint Security Company, and the name of the product is Cynet.

I am still working with Cynet.

Instead of Cynet, it is an EDR. It is now extended XDR. It is an extended response.

For Endpoint Security, I use both ESET and Cynet. However, unlike ESET, Cynet is a proactive tool. MDR is included. It is also paired with SOC.

One of the companies I oversee is one of the Mator company's branches, and they use Cisco Endpoint Security, which is a terrible tool when compared to ESET or Cynet.

The initial setup is very simple.

We require one person a few hours per month for maintenance.

I have about 3,000 endpoints and a three-person IT team.

I have purchased the full version.

I would rate the pricing a three out of five.

It is not expensive, but it is also not inexpensive. There is room for improvement, and the price could be lower.

I would rate ESET Endpoint Security an eight out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for security reasons, including for protection against antiviruses.

The protection and security have been great.

I like the integration; it lets you see the product installed on a particular computer.

There are good documentation and tutorial materials.

It's scalable. 

Right now, the link between the Protect Server and the proxy features don't really work as intended. 

I've had a few other instances where the program stops running, and then you have to restore and reset it. 

If those features can be worked on, that would be very helpful.

A bit more remote access would be ideal. 

I've been using the solution since about 2012. 

Sometimes it is not running as well. When it actually doesn't work properly, then the whole process of reinstalling it is more or less a tedious task. If they could actually work on that and make it a lot better, that would be good.

The product is the only one I've ever known so far in terms of such deployment. I'm not comparing it with any other solutions. I love the control that it gives you on even on a large scale. When we deployed now to over 100 users and it worked well. For us, it is scalable. 

Right now, we're up to 120 machines. It keeps increasing and therefore we will increase usage. 

I don't really deal with support. I mostly do my own research. I've never had to engage with support with the access I have to tutorials and documentation.

I did not previously use a different solution. 

It's a little bit complicated to set up. Even the deployment process for the endpoint that's deployed through GPO. Obviously, when you have the agent deployment is quite a challenge, so it just doesn't work as a straightforward deployment. You want the endpoint antivirus to be able to talk with the Protect Server. However, it's the deployment that's a bit of a challenge.

I'd rate it four out of five in terms of the ease of setup. 

The deployment takes longer than we anticipated. 

I just did the initial setup myself in-house.

I haven't witnessed an ROI. 

I was put on an educational discount. I paid about $1000. I'd have to look through my records. However, we paid maybe $600 to $1000 for this product. I pay for the product every two years. There are no extra costs or fees beyond the licensing. 

I'd advise others to use the solution. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten since I have yet to experience any intrusion. 

My primary use case for ESET Endpoint Security is internet security.

There are two things I like the most about ESET Endpoint Security. One, it's a seamless update. In other words, it updates all in the background. You don't have to restart your computer after an update. It takes care of itself, updates all the time, and stays up to date. It automatically installs those updates, similar to what Windows does. 

The second biggest ESET Endpoint Security plus is the value. They do a program where you can renew for three years. It's very reasonable, as far as the cost per year, because you can renew for three years. They will also do multiple computers, so I actually protect all my family computers, as well as my work computers, all under one license. This means I only have to deal with re-upping my license once every three years. That's the big thing for me.

There is another nice ESET Endpoint Security feature: you can shut it off for 10 minutes and then turn it back on. 

For the most part, I'm really satisfied with ESET Endpoint Security. It works in the background and that is one of the reasons that I went with this solution. It doesn't bog down my computer, for the most part. That's probably one of the things that could be improved. It's not a huge thing, because it doesn't happen very often, but I'll notice sometimes, when there's a startup scan, the computer does bog down a little bit. However, this happens rarely. 

I've had ESET Endpoint Security on all my computers for four or five years, maybe even longer. 

I have never really had the solution crash. It's super stable. 

There have been some times that I've had problems connecting to different computers, but I resolved this issue by temporarily shutting off the solution for a few minutes.

ESET Endpoint Security's tech support is very responsive. I don't get an answer back from them in five minutes, but the few times that I've had to talk to somebody, for instance, for license renewal, I usually hear back within 24 hours. That's very responsive in my opinion.

I cover, I think, eight computers and it turns out to be right around $50 for three years. It's a very reasonable solution. I like that.

Once you install it, it is very stable because you don't have to renew it every year. You just do an install and know you're protected. The installation is also hassle-free.

Overall, I would give this solution a nine out of 10 for performance. 

We only use Endpoint Server. 

Endpoint Security currently meets our needs. We are implementing a cyber-security process. After doing a lab analysis, we determined we have one more we need to implement. 

All of our devices are integrated with the solution. It is working so well that we renewed the contract for two more years.

When we rule a scanner process on the heart risk, it is very slow and overloads the machine. It would be beneficial if we could run a back process.

I would like to see more listings added in the next release of ESET Endpoint. The new versions only support no operative systems in Mac and do not support operative systems.

We have been using ESET Endpoint Security for two years.

The solution is stable.

ESET Endpoint Security is scalable, the performance can be increased. We have 500 people, including Managers and the IT team, using the solution. 

The product requires eight specialists to deploy and maintain.

Customer service and support are very helpful for us. When we have a problem, they help us immediately.

We have also used Kaspersky, but it was very slow.

The initial setup was easy for us. Our team has the tools and experience to manage implementation. It took 10 days to deploy throughout the enterprise.

It is difficult to measure ROI as we do not know what we could have lost without implementing ESET Endpoint Security. What we do know is that we do not have any attacks, and that is very important.

The pricing of ESET Endpoint Security is within the market pricing. We have an annual license. 

Before selecting ESET Endpoint Security, we evaluated Panda, McAfee, and Kaspersky.

I would recommend ESET Endpoint Security to anyone considering implementing this product. 

ESET Endpoint is a nine out of 10 overall. 

I use for ESET Endpoint Antivirus to protect my personal and business files.

The performance of the solution is very good it does not impact my hardware and is user-friendly.

The solution could improve by having higher-level security and reporting.

I have been using ESET Endpoint Antivirus for approximately six years.

ESET Endpoint Antivirus is stable.

I have found ESET Endpoint Antivirus scalable.

We have approximately 150 users using this solution.

I have not faced an issue that I would need to contact the support.

I have used Kaspersky and Trend Micro previously.

The installation is straightforward.

When comparing ESET Endpoint Antivirus to other antivirus programs, such as Trend Micro or Kaspersky, it is the best. The other two were too heavy on the system resources, it consumes a lot of hardware. Additionally, they could not detect auto-run viruses.

I would recommend this solution to others.

I rate ESET Endpoint Antivirus a nine out of ten.

ESET Endpoint Protection Platform in my organization has been successful in offering protection against ransomware episodes or malicious attacks.

ESET Endpoint Protection Platform offers great reporting tools. 

The solution is not ideal for use in large enterprises, it can be used efficiently for smaller enterprises. Sometimes, while pushing updates through the cloud console, updates do not get completed due to network dependency. The tool is easy to use but lacks in implementation. 

In the future, the solution should be able to handle the network issues effectively from the cloud console. The solution is a cloud product so it communicates with an environment through a network, therefore it should resolve issues automatically or provide precise information about endpoint connection failure. 

I have been using ESET Endpoint Protection Platform for four years. 

I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. 

There are 2500 users of ESET Endpoint Protection Platform in the organization I work for. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten. 

Urgent support is not available for the solution. I would rate the tech support a six out of ten. 

Neutral

In the organization I work for, previously we had used McAfee and Trend Micro. Our organization shifted to ESET Endpoint Protection Platform due to the cost effectiveness. 

For the setup, an agent is deployed. That agent takes care of all the audit trails and antivirus software that needs to be installed on the machines. Thus, only a communication agent is required for the installation of ESET Endpoint Protection Platform. It takes only 15 minutes to install the solution. 

There is no maintenance required for the solution, it's carried out automatically through the cloud console. If there are some network issues, then the upgrade needs to be pushed to get the latest version. 

It's a cost-effective product in comparison to other solutions. I would rate the pricing a six out of ten. 

The solution has mediocre adaptation to different business environments. The solution provider is trying to be at an enterprise-grade but still the development is lacking agility. 

The multi-layered defense mechanism of the product, including antivirus protection and the inspection feature for auditing, are equally good. 

The AI capabilities of the ESET Endpoint Protection Platform are good for enhancing the organization's security posture by tracking activities and blocking the traffic accordingly whenever needed. I would recommend the solution for small and medium enterprises and not for large organizations that have twenty or thirty thousand people operating.  

I would rate ESET Endpoint Protection Platform an eight out of ten.
