Rating: 7
Author: Rob Morton

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are a IT Managed Service Provider (MSP). We support customer networks as well as our own. We use AEP within the Comodo One platform that helps us monitor endpoints with a single console.

Pros and Cons

Mitigates exposure to unwanted files and malware.
Ease of Use and Management.
Administrator control unlike standard antivirus purchased in the consumer/small business market.

Stability, they could grow when it comes to updates to the client. There always seems to be complications.
Locking of systems. In the event of trouble, systems lock down so far that the administrator has to drive to the location where device is located, uninstall and reinstall.

Return on Investment

Comodo partnership has been great and always willing to work with specific client pricing.

Alternatives Considered

Webroot Endpoint Protection, Webroot SecureAnywhere, Webroot DNS Protection, Norton Internet Security and Symantec Email Security.cloud

Allows me to use a centralized management console. The protections have never let me down. Support is always there. The other brands have similar features, but Comodo is a great tool and as they are maturing becoming better.

Other Software Used

Comodo cWatch, Comodo Dome Shield

Likelihood to Recommend

Overall great product. I am confident that the product is doing the job we expect. There are times of trouble, but more so when they update the clients or make major changes. It seems they do not do enough testing before pushing releases.

Comodo is a security tool build with the Managed Service Provide (MSP) in mind.
