Scalable and reliable, but needs better intrusion tracing
Pros and Cons
- "The solution is scalable, we have 500 users using this solution."
- "We have zero-day detection of malware but it cannot detect other types of unknown intrusions."
What is our primary use case?
We use the solution in our company for security against intrusions. However, we cannot trace the source of the issue without the EDR which we are planning to implement soon. We are able to receive the report from the server and which SNMP traps are from what system but that is all.
What needs improvement?
We have zero-day detection of malware but it cannot detect other types of unknown intrusions.
In an upcoming release, they could improve by providing features, such as EDR and better tracing of intrusion.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using this solution for approximately five years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
We have not had any stability issues and after each new version, the stability gets better.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

How are customer service and technical support?
I have not contacted technical support but we have vendor support that has been good.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have used Trend Micro and Symantec previously. We switch to this solution most recently from Symantec because the resource consumption was too high and the reporting was not good.
How was the initial setup?
The installation is straightforward.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
We have an annual license and there is a fee per device used. The price is fair compared to the latest EDR solution.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Enables us to get feedback from our customers
Pros and Cons
- "I have found the security, device, web and application controls to be the most valuable features."
- "The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue."
What is our primary use case?
We use Kaspersky Endpoint Security to provide support to our customers. The new version and configuration settings are like production components.
How has it helped my organization?
There are many who would consider the performance in some of our systems to be slow, although this depends on the RAM and other features. The solution enables us to get feedback from our customers.
What is most valuable?
I have found the security, device, web, and application controls to be the most valuable features.
So too, the firewall has allowed me to do much troubleshooting.
What needs improvement?
The application running speed consumes that of RAM, so performance speed is an issue. The data, VST, and EST sizes can all be reduced.
Previously, some of the Windows Seven PCs took up more space and ran slowly all the time.
Some of the remote antivirus desktop sharing is not working in version 13, which is still in use.
When we upgrade to network agent version 13, the machine makes a duplicate copy of itself. It is created in another group. Under the same name, we will see two devices, one the original and the other the duplicate. Afterward, we move to the client's PC.
Occasionally troubleshooting is required because the solution does not work after being configured. As an example of this, the running time may be longer when it involves cloud-based SaaS remote installation. At other times, the process cannot be completed and I must remove the task, switch to manual mode or begin a new task.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable. It is good and I like it. Before going with it, I was not aware of its capabilities. It removes the element of worry.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable.
How are customer service and technical support?
While the technical support we can supply ranges from installation to troubleshooting, all other issues involved. bugs or updates made to versions would lead us to create a ticket with that of Kaspersky Endpoint Security.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We did not previously use a different solution.
How was the initial setup?
With us, the deployment took the minimum amount of time. But, with some of my clients, it took more than a day.
When it comes to the assistance I can lend the client, I suggest that he make a plan which would allow him to do the maximum amount of remote usage.
What about the implementation team?
We handled the deployment on our own.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
As my role is limited to that of support, I cannot conjecture as to the prices.
What other advice do I have?
The solution is both on-premises and cloud-based. Kate:
Our organization handles things on the partner side, supplying remote support throughout India. All its constituents are in IT positions.
There are many organizations making use of the solution.
When it comes to the implementation of the solution, we provide all the necessary support, from installation to troubleshooting.
I was not aware of Kaspersky Endpoint Solution and its features before entering this field but now am acquainted with its components and protection software. I learned a lot on the software side.
I rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security as an eight out of ten.

Reliable, straightforward to set up and has high detection rates
Pros and Cons
- "The initial setup was extremely straightforward and very easy."
- "The UI, user interface, could be improved."
What is our primary use case?
The solution is used for our enterprise. We primarily use the solution for security. We use it for detection purposes.
What is most valuable?
The solution offers very high, effective, detection rates.
The solution offers a very good performance overall. It's reliable.
The initial setup was extremely straightforward and very easy.
The stability is good.
What needs improvement?
We would always like to see even more security features. It's something the solution should continue to improve upon.
The UI, user interface, could be improved. They should update it.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for a while. It's been about three years at this point.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The stability of the solution is very good. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's very reliable. The performance has been excellent over the years.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
We protect around 2,000 endpoints with this product.
We do have plans to continue to use the solution. I cannot speak to if expansion is in the works.
How are customer service and technical support?
I've never dealt with technical support directly. I can't comment on their level of service or responsiveness, having never dealt with them directly myself.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was not complex or difficult for us. It was very simple and very straightforward. A company shouldn't have any issues with the solution's setup.
The deployment was quick. It only took us about three or so days.
What about the implementation team?
We handled the implementation ourselves. We did it in-house. We did not need an integrator or consultant to assist us.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
In the past, we've looked at ESET Endpoint Security.
What other advice do I have?
We are a customer and an end-user. We don't have a business relationship with Kaspersky.
We are using the latest version of the solution at this time. I cannot speak to the exact version number.
I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten. We've been mostly quite happy with the product and how it has performed for us.
I'd recommend the solution to other users.

Needs more visibility and threat hunting
Pros and Cons
- "I like how it protects the network and all the endpoints."
- "Kaspersky Endpoint Security could have more visibility and threat hunting. Right now, if it detects a file, it's quarantined, and then we can't find more details other than the path and the file name. We don't see what process it's warning off and how the virus got in. So, the reporting on the quarantined items, why were they quarantined, etc., could be improved."
What is our primary use case?
We deploy it to every computer, server, and workstation within our network and also some home computers and laptops for endpoint protection.
What is most valuable?
I like how it protects the network and all the endpoints.
What needs improvement?
Kaspersky Endpoint Security could have more visibility and threat hunting. Right now, if it detects a file, it's quarantined, and then we can't find more details other than the path and the file name. We don't see what process it's warning off and how the virus got in. So, the reporting on the quarantined items, why were they quarantined, etc., could be improved.
We can't monitor outside of the network, so scalability could be improved as well.
The ability to control notifications regarding updates and licensing from one main computer would be great. At present, you have to physically go to each computer when a new agreement pops up. We have about 100 licenses, and this can be time consuming.
Technical support could be better.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using Kaspersky Endpoint Security for the last six to seven years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It's pretty stable. In the last six to seven years, we have encountered problems with the memory once or twice and had them fixed.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
As for scalability, we can't monitor outside of the network. For instance, if we deployed Kaspersky on laptops, we won't be able to monitor all the laptops at home. We lose control, so I think scalability could be improved as well.
How are customer service and technical support?
My experience with technical support has been okay, but it could be better.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was pretty easy. We deployed the administration server and then used the administration server to push all the agents, Kaspersky agent and then Kaspersky Endpoint.
It took about a day to deploy the solution in our environment with about 60 devices within the network.
What about the implementation team?
We deployed it through a team in-house.
What was our ROI?
It's good, but we want more features. It's good for the price though.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The licensing cost can be about $1,300 per year.
What other advice do I have?
I'm not sure how good the EDR side, the endpoint detection and protection, is. Is it based on behavioral detection or only based on file signature? Does it compare any known viruses to databases for all known viruses? Can it detect a new virus based on the behavior of the process?
If it got infected by a new virus, new malware, it may not detect it. I question if it's good for behavioral detection. I think the cloud version will be better, but I have not tried it.
On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Kaspersky Endpoint Security at three because other products provide more visibility and more EDR features.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

Great pricing with an easy initial setup and good stability
Pros and Cons
- "The price per endpoint is excellent."
- "The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution for endpoint protection along with catering to Office 365, OneDrive, Teams, SharePoint, Outlook, or Exchange - along with Windows update services.
How has it helped my organization?
The solution has definitely improved how our organization functions.
What is most valuable?
The solution, for what it does overall, is a very attractive solution.
The price per endpoint is excellent.
The initial setup is straightforward. It's pretty easy.
The solution has been very stable for us. We haven't had any issues with performance.
The scalability is there if a company needs to expand.
What needs improvement?
The reporting portion of the solution is quite weak. It needs to be improved upon. They could do a better job of making it more robust.
There's always room for improvement in everything, however, I can't think of a specific feature that is missing or lacking.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for well over a year at this point.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The product has been extremely stable. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable. The performance has been good.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability has been good so far. I haven't run into any issues as far as scaling goes. That said, we aren't an enterprise. I've had it as high as 300 clients.
For us, we probably have about a hundred users and I'd say a large majority of those are production floor people. The rest (25 to 30) are front office staff.
How are customer service and technical support?
I've never used technical support before. I can't speak to how helpful or responsive they are. It's just not something I've dealt with.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We used to have Cisco AMP. We switched over to Kaspersky.
The reason we switched was really related to a price point and wanting to push out Windows updates, kind of more than device management type functionality.
How was the initial setup?
We've found the initial setup to be pretty simple and straightforward. It's not overly complex. A company shouldn't have any problem with the implementation process.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost structure is very reasonable. It's not overly expensive, which is part of the draw of the solution.
What other advice do I have?
We're using the latest version of the solution. I'm not sure of the version number.
In general, we've been quite happy with the solution overall. I would rate it at a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
