I expected Active Response's user interface to be much more analytical. I still haven't evaluated the ransomware features because everybody implements anti-ransomware differently. You need to see these features in action because everyone seems to have their way of doing it. That's something I still would like to evaluate.

It's still not lightweight enough and not as light as they claim to be with the McAfee area of a next-gen AV. They can do some improvements along that line. There needs to be some improvement around the white-listing or black-listing. The product could improve aspects around the removal of blacklisted applications, et cetera. This was an exercise to centralize the AV cell, and that's how we ended up upgrading. The truth, however, is that I was really looking for something much more advanced with user behavior analytics and some AI features that the other competitor's next-gen AV does offer. It is okay for what it's doing now, however, it's not the ultimate software. There are some components on the cloud that should also reside in the on-prem deployment models but don't. They should ensure they are doing parallel development for cloud and on-prem when they are doing R&D.
EDR, also referred to as Endpoint Detection and Response, is a security solution that works by using continuous real-time monitoring and collecting endpoint data that could indicate a threat.
