Overall Satisfaction with ESET PROTECT

With more than 10 years as a home ESET Endpoint Antivirus user, I was not surprised to find the product ensconced within my current organization. Spread throughout the entire organization, ESET is a one-stop shop for antivirus protection. Providing solid protection against hackers, ransomware, and phishing without the lag I have seen in other products.
  • Detailed. Granular security controls
  • Firmware protection
  • Light system impact
  • Middle of the road malware protection
  • Can be difficult to program as there are so many features you can set
  • Would be great to see password management as part of its toolset
  • Multi-device licenses are a great value
  • Lightweight installation speeds up deployment time
  • Quick Scans can be run in the background without impacting the end user
This is a very powerful system but not easy to set up as there is no library of pre-built rules for the inexperienced user. In a home environment or an SMB, this product could become confusing for anyone without the expertise necessary to configure it properly. ESET would better suit an organization that had the team necessary to oversee it and configure it properly. Once configured it works like any other program and scans can be scheduled to run quickly, you just need the proper team to do the initial configuration.
