User Testimonials
	BlackBerry Optics (CylanceOPTICS)	Kaspersky EDR Expert
Likelihood to Recommend	BlackBerry If you’re looking for a solution that enables mapping to maturity along with a specific framework and timeline, then Optics definitely makes that easier. If you have a small team and not a lot of spare time, then Optics may force some prioritization work on your team.

Kaspersky EDR Expert allows to automatically find unmanaged and rogue endpoints, remove previous agent from another vendor, install its agent, move endpoint to a group based on endpoint's characteristics, change security policies if for example endpoint is moved to another subnet or currently out-of-office, apply malware outbreak rules in case of attack Verified User Anonymous Read full review
