Extended Endpoint Protection, part of Alert Logic Essentials vs StormShield Endpoint Security

• Stops programs from making changes to users' system - this can be hit or miss, but I'd rather have a false positive and have to override it, then a virus on my systems.
• The override system for false positives is very simple and easy to use - if a program throws up a flag, it is very easy to tell Barkly to leave it alone and it will do this network-wide, which is nice for things like updates.
• Very lightweight, small install and leaves almost no footprint on your system. Also system resource utilization is very light.

• Easy to manage on a daily basis
• It goes very deep into analyzing the trafic and the configuration is very thin.
• The first configuration is not so complex

• There is no visible icon that it is installed unless you go into Add/Remove programs, locally you would not know its there.
• If an update is installed (i.e. Windows Update) and Barkly flags it, you will get SPAMMed with alerts until it is overridden. An easy fix but can be annoying if you are on your way in and not at the office yet.
• Reporting is a bit lit in the Admin console - installs, and updates, but not much else.
• Getting better, but when they update their product, there wasn't much warning originally. A bit unsettling when you log into your console and see every one of your end users out-of-date.

• Not everything is possible on the web administration page. We need to use the ssh console to do many things.
• The logs viewer is not as helpful as on other brands (like ASTARO, SOPHOS,...)

• Decently priced for AVs
• Has protected against several viruses, and that right there is enough to warrant purchase, any virus stopped is money saved
• Low impact on users, so they aren't complaining of slowness on their computers when scanning (it does not scan traditionally)

• It does the job very well once it is correctly configured. By that I mean, it is functioning with the least waste of time and effort for network administrators.
• If needed the support is efficient.
