Likelihood to Recommend If I had to recommend an endpoint AV solution, [BlackBerry Protect (CylancePROTECT)] would be on the list...in fact at the top of the current list. It is a cost effective solution. When we did the bakeoff in our selection we built 3 generic W10 PCs. We located a Malware repository on the internet and downloaded a package of 100. The first solution stopped 80% from installing, the second stopped 100%, [BlackBerry (CylancePROTECT)] would not let the package download! Winner winner chicken dinner :)
Read full review Robust protection with a small footprint. Catches all malware and viruses, while respecting the exclusions put in place by our organization. Pricing was very aggressive compared to other products. Great management application, where you can manage the installations and even update third-party apps on those machines from that portal. Great product for a great price.
Read full review Pros 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. Read full review Vipre Antivirus constantly scans your computer in the background without a need for user intervention. In one program Vipre can successfully protect all your computing devices from both malicious virus attacks as where vicious spyware intrusions. You won't feel any slowness or sluggishness with Vipre installed & running in the background while you continue to use your computing devices. Read full review Cons 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. Read full review When using older versions of Outlook I have seen the plugin cause sluggish behavior and hangs, in 2007 and 2010 versions specifically. For some business applications, there are .dll's and libraries and application .exe's that can be misidentified as virus or trojans. While it is fairly easy to whitelist these once discovered, new implementors should be aware that they will need to carefully look through their initial virus scan reports to find and whitelist these items.

Read full review Usability Great product Great technology Great people Great leader (Stuart McClure) Great Service I work with hundreds of complex suppliers in healthcare and tech, and this company is more than just an extension of our business.
Read full review VIPRE is very easy to use and administer. You have a lot of functionality from the server on what you can do with the clients. It has proved useful when I can't access a client any other way. I can reboot the computer from the server and then usually get back into that machine.
Read full review Support Rating 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.
Read full review VIPRE support is usually pretty quick. Sometimes you have to get a lot of information to send back so they can see the issue. This has not been too bad and I understand why it's needed. VIPRE also has a free rescue tool that is very useful and easy to use. There have been others but VIPRE seems to keep theirs updated. It's my go-to even outside of work.
Read full review Alternatives Considered 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.
Read full review We got a chance to buy AVG Business edition and we tried to install that throughout our organization and most specifically to our important systems but it was not compatible with a majority of them and we found AVG as high-demand software with a mediocre speed of action and more pricing. So in comparison to AVG, VIPRE is good in all aspects.
Read full review Return on Investment 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. Read full review The VIPRE MSP program cost effectively lets me integrate protection into every endpoint I protect. Integration with ConnectWise for deployment and billing has increased our revenue. Integration with ConnectWise for management means we keep endpoint protection coverage consistently above 99% to secure our clients. Read full review ScreenShots
