    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    It works great if you want to run an application as an admin. We did find out that it will not work, or at least we cannot get it to work for users that need to change the IP address on their endpoint to connect to a traffic light. So far those users are still admins until we can figure it out

    If you already have Webroot AV, it makes sense to continue with the same vendor. It's pretty cheap compared to some solutions, so it might be the case that it's this or nothing, in which case this is a no brainer. If you are an MSP, this is an easy product to sell, and requires very little maintenance. you do need to monitor it but it runs itself most of the time. If you are a customer with >50 users, you should really be looking for a product that is a bit higher up the food chain

    Cons
    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • The agent on the endpoint will sometimes fail to install or it will get corrupted. Nothing in the console that we can find tells us that there is an issue
    • Create an agent that also works with the other products that you sell. If we have more than one product there is a chance that it may not work
    • I really do not have a 3rd. This is a really good product

    • Integration with G-Suite, O365, Active Directory, SIS, etc.
    • Increase the number of third-party integrations.
    • It can be expensive to implement, depending on the size of the network.
    • It does not offer additional features and options beyond basic protection.

    Usability
    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    Extremely easy to use. Once we had a good idea of how it worked we had it up and running in about 2 weeks. It did take us nearly 9 months to get it installed and fully operational on all users endpoints that needed it. My admin on the team that runs the software loves it.

    ME has many more applications that are in the database that will work. The cost was also much cheaper that is until we confronted the other vendor about us finding another product. At that point it was too late. We own other ME products and have found success in all of them

    Webroot stacks right up with the top vendors in this tier. Priced right and MSP ready.

    Return on Investment
    ManageEngine A Div of Zoho Corporation Pvt Ltd
    • This product will help us better secure our environment. That alone is a huge cost savings
    • We have allowed users that were admins to still be able to install some software on their endpoints without having admin rights on the whole endpoint
    • This product has woke up some in the department to look for applications that do not require admin rights.
