We have been using Kaspersky EDR Optimum for over 10 years, with the evolution of products reaching EDR now, we can verify the integrated responsiveness and visibility of our environment. Great protection tool on all OS. Very good value for money, with the new licensing, all business plans will now have native EDR.

I'm a big fan of Kaspersky EDR Optimum, so it's very difficult to find inappropriate scenarios. I see that the tool needs improvements to help with ease of applicability and actions to be taken. The best scenario is the protection and peace of mind that I get from using Kaspersky EDR Optimum, in addition to the quality support that the company provides us.

I’m convinced that the key is guaranteeing the 100% of coverage, with the best configuration possible and without pain or hit at resource consumption and harmonies performance.I would like that the solution detecting, inventorying, and alerting about some host/device unknow or don’t register in KSC. Don’t depend on Device Detection function.

I managed to get it working properly and with no issues in a mostly Windows Enviroment, both workstations and servers.
Some users, specially developers, complained about resource consumption, but I suppose that is the way it works. From my perspective, it worked pretty well for 99% of the users.
If you have some Russian concerns, maybe it's not the best option for you, although it's a great product

Kaspersky EDR Optimum is more appropriate for large computer network, because it has much better securtiy controls than others competitor. For small infraestructure, i choose KSC on cloud, becasuse is really simple its desploy and operation. One important point is use Windows 10 or 11 on the desktops. This scenarios is easier than heterogeneus computer networks.

Kaspersky EDR Optimum allows administrators to not only visualize an attack's spread path but also respond to it in just a few clicks, boosting the company's capacity for protection. Thanks to these new options users can quarantine files, isolate hosts to stop any further spread within the network, and scan for Indicators of Compromise (IoC). If an attack has been detected and stopped on one computer, an administrator can find indicators of this compromise across other devices and be able to stop the spread of infection.

We use Kaspersky EDR Optimum to protect our company from new threats that are being developed daily. Older software has been found out, and attackers know how to work around it. With Optimum's ability to use AI-driven threat detection, we are able to identify new threats quicker and mitigate potential security incidents.
