Find out in this report how the two eDiscovery solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The technical support is excellent."
"The solution is very stable."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."
"It indexes much faster, and is more reflexive because of the Enscripts."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"The most valuable feature is the automated updating feature."
"The solution is very stable."
"It is very easy to use and keeps us secure."
"Symantec ATP provides quite a good overview of how threats have spread within the company."
"The tool has predefined rules, like which actions to block or allow. This makes it easy because I don't have to figure out what policies to deploy."
"It's a good proxy to control the user's access to the website."
"The installation was very easy."
"The technical support is very good. They have an Indian support team, so there are no delays in receiving support."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process."
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"Symantec isn't good in terms of updating customers about updates. You'd normally have to search it out. Sometimes, the update process for the administration and management console can be a bit intimidating, and it can be quite inconvenient to get the updates. That's because when you have to do the update, you have to update the management console, and then you need to update the clients. Their application that's installed on desktops and servers needs to go hand in hand with the management console. Sometimes, it's a bit unwieldy to see that process through."
"There are a few negative points. They should separate the feature for each separate solution for mobile devices. The second one is about the price, it's expensive. Finally, the third would be the complexity of implementation."
"They need to develop a multi-language interface."
"It can be improved in terms of features and integration. It should have more advanced features and more integration. Currently, it is just talking to their own solutions. They could add more artificial intelligence, more XDR, and more integration with other vendors so that we can do sharing of information with other vendors."
"Symantec End-point production doesn't support the EDR function."
"It would be nice to see more antivirus features for USB control."
"The one thing I don't like about Symantec Endpoint Security is the amount of resources it uses."
"About four years back, Symantec's signature was very heavy and their signature patch was around 200MB or 300MB files."
