"The basic functionality is fantastic. It has been performing well. I generated a report on one machine, using that as the deployment machine. When scanning the network, it discovered machines on the network and deployed the same endpoint protection from that one machine I have on my network."
"The tool provides automated responses."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"The protection that it provides from ransomware is valuable. The awareness that it has is also valuable. It didn't have a central console earlier, but now it has a central console, which is pretty good."
"WatchGuard Threat Detection and Response is a reliable solution."
"The analytics are important because if there is an abnormality then it provides that information to us."
"The interface is very good."
"I like WatchGuard's network segmentation features. It's easy to configure user policies."
"The solution's installation from a central installation server could be improved because the engineers had a little bit of trouble getting it installed from a central location."
"The support needs improvement."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"They should include XDR features in the solution."
"The main problem with Endpoint is that Kaspersky is a Russian company, and my clients prefer not to use it."
"If it covered more products, it would improve the XDR."
"If a customer wants to use Kaspersky on-prem, they'll need to spend a lot on the hardware. Their server must be strong because EDR is a heavy product. You need excellent hardware to run it. It might make sense to deploy the solution in the cloud. If they add features, it will only make the product heavier and increase the hardware costs."
"The system can be heavy, slowing down performance."
"The solution lacks DLP."
"We would like to have better strategic information."
"Kaspersky needs to strengthen its standing in the market."
More Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert Cons →

"The solution is a bit confusing and there are unusual complications with setup."
"When it comes to live-monitoring, the user-interface could be improved to make things easier."
"The website must provide more information on the product."
"It can have a couple of false positives, but after you add them to your allow list, it works fine. It could have better Mac support. I am pretty sure it doesn't have much support for Mac. It can be installed on a Mac, but it is not that good."
"I'd like a few extra features, especially around threat severity assessment."
"The interface is not the best."
