Huawei Symantec OceanSpace S5000 vs. Symantec Advanced Threat Protection

I highly recommend this platform due to its capability in computing performance in data storage and file transfer. The setup process is simple and learning how it works is simple. It provides reporting on daily workload storage capability. It enhances data integrity with reliable security systems that monitor every stage of data transformation. The flow of data across our applications is scrutinized by Huawei Symantec OceanSpace S5000 for compliance.

It is valuable software for when it comes to a large or medium organization, since it helps to protect the endpoints, but as the number of servers increases its value increases. However, it is important to keep in mind that when it comes to low end devices, its protection can affect their performance. This is because it is not a software with a very light agent.

• The incident management piece is the heart and soul of the product. A single area where all data in relation to network and email protection is available.
• Works well in conjunction with the standard Symantec Endpoint product.
• URL Protection is advanced and very helpful
• Technical support is great and definitely the best I have ever seen for a "anti-virus" type product.

• I have not identified any area that requires improvement.
• The overall functionality of this product is awesome.

• I don't like that I have to maintain the client and keep it up to date. Updating the client is not a very easy process.
• Deploying the client could be easier. They have a deployment tool, but it doesn't really get to all PCs, which means I still have to manually deploy it.
• Because the product has so much customization, it can also be very difficult to set up and understand.

Symantec Advanced Threat Protection has done a sufficient job at identifying true positives. However, the UI could be improved and the amount of false positives is a little too frequent for my liking

There is a small learning curve, but compared to other AV products it is fairly simple and easy to catch onto

Support responds fast for higher priority issues, they have always been good at solving the problems we encounter.

No, besides to review documentation prior to beginning. That is what helped lead to a smooth implementation

I have no experience with a similar computing platform in my experience. I liked the performance of this tool due to its pricing and suitability in managing all data processes. It has simple guidelines and new users find it easy to work with the user interface. The customer support team has been reliable with helpful guidelines when reached to provide any assistance.

Frankly, the other products were too expensive to make the change from Symantec so we continued with the tried and true protection. We don't have the funding to move to a more expensive product and the manpower that it would take to implement a new solution.

• Some digital assets were lost due to failures to detect various threats.
• We had to use other products in combination in order to trust that all threats were actually detected, taking extra time. We couldn't use just SATP.
• Ability to quickly manage/deploy via AD made maintenance of the application itself quick and easy.
