Overall Satisfaction with VIPRE
We use VIPRE Endpoint Security to help secure users and their computers. It is deployed throughout the organization. It gives you the ability to have one centralized server to manage all the clients. You can set up different policies from relaxed to very strict. It can block attachments in emails, processes that are taking potentially malicious actions, and even block malicious web sites. This version also has patch management so you can help keep software up to date.
- It blocks malicious attachments in emails.
- It blocks malicious processes from running without you knowing.
- Daily scans help keep the computers protected and has the ability for a rapid scan to help keep CPU levels down.
- Doesn't bog down the computer when it is running a scan.
- The patch management feature could be updated. It doesn't work all of the time.
- Some updates cause issues with computers. This has happened a couple of times but I was able to get a hold of someone at VIPRE support and work through it.
- Helped keep viruses from getting into a computer and on the network.
- Helped keep malicious links out of emails.
- Keep the network going without malicious programs running around slowing things down and collecting information.
I have used McAfee and Norton on a personal level, not in a company environment. I know on a personal level I had issues with it slowing my computer down. I also had issues trying to uninstall McAfee completely. I'm not saying that they are bad products, I just think VIPRE has been a better fit and for the cost, it is great!
