"The most valuable feature is the antispam module, which comes in the bundle."
"Technical support has been very good. They're quick to respond to any problems."
"It hasn't crashed a single time, so it is stable in that sense."
"The tool protects everything."
"It has a clean and clear interface."
"The product is good and has a good interface."
"I like the integration; it lets you see the product installed on a particular computer."
"It is pretty easy to deploy. Its update definition file is small, so it can dispatch very quickly within the enterprise. The product itself is very lightweight, so it won't delay your endpoint. You also don't have to do any difficult configuration because it comes with a very good default setting. So, you just install it and forget it."
"The dashboard management feature is valuable."
"The most valuable features of Panda Security Adaptive Defense are the useful hardware information it provides, light on resources, controllable from the console, remote scan functionality, and the blocking of a lot of URL malware."

"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"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."
"Detections could be improved."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"They recently released an EDR integration. I hope they have more AI or intelligence filtering on the EDR events. Even though it has already got AI, but it is quite a different thing. So, they still have room to improve on the EDR part. This is one small piece that they need to improve. Otherwise, it is just fine."
"The scalability could be better."
"I think that ESET is a little too heavy on the CPU."
"A few times, we have had problems with downloading an agent. We had to try multiple times and multiple uploads."
"The solution’s console management and scalability should be improved."
"In terms of what is lacking in ESET, it really would need more features for the users when they are working outside of the corporate network."
"It's not scalable in that you cannot use a license for multiple devices."
"There are some new antivirus technologies that rely on AI, artificial intelligence. ESET does not have this technology right now."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"Their MacOS support isn't that good."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
"The only part I really don't use as much is their firewall. It's a bit superfluous. Most people have their own firewall in place, so they don't really need that part portion of the solution."
"Panda Security Adaptive Defense can improve by including the intrusion and prevention system not only on their most expensive platform. Additionally, it blocks software that is legitimate from users. They complain and then we have to manually unblock the software, by hash, or we receive a message. Some of the prevention features are not available and this might cause us to need a separate firewall or something to protect the company."
"It needs improvements in its EDR and its ability to manage all the nodes. I'd like better communication between the console and the nodes, so I don't have to remote into each individual machine that's having an issue with the protection."
"It needs some improvements in the DNS security feature. Currently, it does not have full DNS security. It only has semi-DNS security, which can be improved. It is an important feature for us, and it would be really good if they can improve the DNS security feature. Our group has some plans to change to Cisco AMP, which has features such as DNS, Umbrella. We are trying to learn about Cisco AMP and compare it with Panda."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
