Avast Business Antivirus vs Microsoft System Center Endpoint Protection

• Cloud-based. I can manage all of my endpoints, policies, alerts, etc. from their cloud portal - from anywhere.
• Through the same portal - I have remote access to all of my devices - priceless.
• I absolutely love the endpoint client lockout (by password) - which does not allow my end users to disable under any circumstance - but allows me to do so by entering in the password. Stellar feature!
• Policy-based - I can set all the parameters against a policy, hit save and that rolls out to the endpoints. I can also move devices between policies with ease from the cloud portal, so I can test features to ensure security levels remain tight.

• Microsoft System Center Endpoint Protection offers exceptional threat protections for signature-based "known" threats.
• The signatures are constantly updated and management of this application is super easy with the use of Microsoft SCCM.
• The application is very much a "set it and let it" type of deployment. Once you install it, there are very little configuration or changes that need to be made.

• The product could improve in the area of having better mechanisms in place with how the SCEP client is deployed/installed from the server on the management side. We have run into this firsthand with the client not installing on an endpoint, and then having to take the time to investigate why it was not installing.
• A second improvement that can be made is to keep trying to improve the products detection rate for finding malware/viruses. The case can be made that there are some products out there that do a better job at this and have a higher detection rate.

• There was little/no cost associated with this software since we are utilizing SCCM and are paying license costs for that anyways.
• The level or protection is excellent for the cost of the software.
• There was at least one instance in which Microsoft System Center Endpoint Protection identified a crypto-malware, but not before it had already started to encrypt many of our files. So it did detect the threat, but since it was a little delayed we still were infected.
