Overall Satisfaction with ESET Endpoint Security

We use ESET Endpoint as the default antivirus solution at this organization as well as at the 7 other managed organizations that we are associated with. The intention behind its implementation is to mitigate viral threats as well as act as a more robust firewall for all endpoints.
  • Thorough reporting
  • Firewall management
  • Endpoint security
  • Regular client updates
  • There has been some functionality loss in the ESET Administrator Console since migrating from version 6 to its current version.
  • The firewall can often flag false positives.
  • Reporting
  • Centralized Administration
  • Consistency
  • I have been using ESET Endpoint for two years now with this org and have had consistent results with trojan and browser hijackers.
  • No negative impacts have been experienced.
  • Microsoft Defender for Endpoint (formerly Microsoft Defender ATP)
It was pre-existing when I came to this company so ESET is dug in deep and removing it would be a process. Defender was nice and is a solution I wouldn't mind moving to. My biggest concern is web protection due to the amount of password compromise request emails the user base gets so have a system that is big on web protection is a must.

Do you think ESET PROTECT delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with ESET PROTECT's feature set?

Yes

Did ESET PROTECT live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of ESET PROTECT go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy ESET PROTECT again?

Yes

The system runs well and the updates to the client are done regularly which is a must. I have supported ESET from a mid-level company of 200-300 endpoints to a larger university-style environment with over 5000 and it has done well in both. The centralized management console is a great point for any security admin to manage the clients, firewall rules, additional settings, and to see what issues might be occurring.
