    The policies that you make is where it's key. The "less you let people do, the better it will be" so to speak. So if you really clamp down on a policy and don't let people do specific things, then it'll be better for you. It also helps to protect the "not so tech savvy" people as well. Basically the same thing as above, if you have users that need more flexibility, on occasion the policies might come into play and interfere if you're not careful.

    The software tends to do a good job of basic protection but is not the best for larger clients and is not as powerful as some others offered on the market today. The support is not the best either, have had a hard time getting assistance in the past trying to resolve issues.

    Pros
    BlackBerry
    • Fast and Unobtrusive, users hardly notice that Cylance is running on their computer, except when it detects something malicious
    • User interface is simple for end users, and the management interface is streamlined and easy to get started with. The management interface has a quick tutorial that comes up upon first login that explains all the different aspects of how to configure CylanceProtect.
    • Customer support is fantastic - in that if you get stuck or need help understanding a feature/setting, they are quick to respond and help to ensure that your configuration is set as optimal as possible for your scenarios.

    • It is very light weight and does not tax the computers resources
    • Has a quick scan and does not take forevere when scanning
    • It's central management on the web makes it easy to use and gives tons of control for Admins

    Cons
    BlackBerry
    • It would be great if there was a way for an administrator to make a file as safe from the end user device when a false positive has occurred (which is rare). At present and administrator has to log into the web console, create an exception and then wait 60-120 seconds for this to be effective on the end user device, still great, but this can be frustrating for users that are urgently trying to use the file.
    • Executive reporting could be better. Just a single page dashboard report that could be included in other monthly reporting.

    • There are several configuration options for both end-point and DNS protection. Would like a more simple way to understand and validate settings.
    • Support is heavily video or FAQ based although you can submit a Support Ticket. Would like more availability to an actual support engineer.
    • Overtime you can forget how to change setting - a refresher course would be nice, especially as new features are added to the solution.

    Webroot Endpoint Protection has been great for us, as its simple, cloud-based management console allows us to quickly deploy easily monitor all of our endpoints. However, it could improve by offering more customizable reporting options for deeper insights into security events and the interface could also use some updating, as it feels a bit dated.

    I have only used CylancePROTECT support one time and they were very fast and responsive with the answers that solved my issue. That is the only reason I gave them a 7 as I have only had one interaction with them.

    Support has been reliable up to this point. A request can easily be generated via the console and support responding in a reasonable time. We have not had any major issues other than the basic agents not communicating with the console and the like.

    I had some difficulties with remote users. I ended up needing to open a remote tech support session and finish the process. Other than a few speed bumps, I was impressed with the engineering of the install. Because of time differences, I was done installing in two days. The cost, per license, could be less.

    Cylance, I believe is the only one that uses the predict and prevent execution of advanced threats and malware at the endpoint. Cylance is by far a superior product.

    Webroot is good in a way that it is an all encompassing solution one stop shop for protecting endpoints but it needs to be managed and licensed. Some users do not need constant protection or need to have it on their machines in where the combination of Field Effect and Malwarebytes is more effective.

    Return on Investment
    BlackBerry
    • We have the piece of mind that our endpoints are protected.
    • We have more time to work on other projects as we don't have to worry about computers being on to have scheduled scans.
    • Our computers CPU and RAM aren't going to be taken up with big process like typical anti-virus programs do.

    • The DNS filtering allows for a very granular configuration of endpoints
    • The cost to benefit ratio is good. It is not a real EDR player yet, but the development looks promising
    • Its best feature is integration with our MSP software, providing actionable tickets.
