Overall Satisfaction with ESET Endpoint Security
ESET Endpoint Security is being used across our entire local government WAN to provide us protection from viruses, spyware, and provides anti-phishing protection as well. It provides protection on the local workstation that takes up a very small footprint, so it does not impact system resources like other products I have used in the past. I also use it to lock down the use of USB devices (USB drives especially) so that large amounts of data cannot be copied and taken off-site, causing a data security issue. The management console allows us complete control for administration.
- The small footprint on the local workstations is great. It does not utilize system resources like other product I have used in the past.
- Excellent Anti-Virus/Anti-Spyware/Anti-Phishing and firewall capability.
- Remote administration works well to push out installation and updates.
- Cost is lower than other products that I have used in the past.
- For us, the ability to control and lock down the use of removable devices is a must to provide data security.
- Setup does have a learning curve, partially due to the options that are available.
- Planning and setting up the rules/policies of the organization can be a little daunting.
- I would like it to be able to deploy new versions to the client automatically instead of having to set this up manually.
- I can tell you that the cost to provide this security suite is lower than the other major vendors' product and is a better product.
- The need to protect your organization from threats is required. The costs associated with recovering from an infection that spreads across the organization, the data loss, the productivity loss, etc., are huge! Don't risk it by "saving money" and taking risks.
ESET is the product we chose to replace Symantec Endpoint Protection. ESET is a better product at a lower price point and does not slow down client workstations like Symantec does. Symantec uninstalls from clients were sometimes very difficult and were not clean uninstalls. Sometimes you had to use an uninstall program to clean things up.
