Overall Satisfaction with Symantec Email Threat Detection and Response

We have been using Symantec Endpoint, now Broadcom for 11+ years. We install the client locally on all school-owned and as many student computers as possible. We have been less successful in that regard as we would like and are currently investigating a migration to a different true EDR product.
  • Scans computers for viruses
  • Notifies admins of infections
  • Good licensing process
  • Deployment
  • EDR
  • It has been a good solution for the time we have used it.
We are making a migration from Symantec to SentinelOne in the near future for easier deployment, better EDR and management functionality.

Yes

Would you buy Symantec Email Threat Detection and Response again?

No

From a price point Symantec cannot be beat in EDU. However, for better EDR a more robust, fully featured solution is desirable. I am not sure if Broadcom is continuing to develop the product either after purchasing it.
