We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"The solution offers impressive advanced protection.""The dashboard is useful for management, and its cost for the features is hard to beat.""This solution has a traditional antivirus, I believe that signature-based detection is most valuable.""The ability to push policies and also to restrict an installation or to restrict any form of threat within the policy has been quite useful.""The most valuable features of ESET Endpoint Antivirus are the search engine, easy firewall setup, and ransomware scans.""The stability is good.""I have found the ESET Management Console very good. It gives me many features, such as managing users and installing a new version.""All of our devices are integrated with the solution."

Cons
"Data Leak Protection is is what we are searching for at the moment. It is not included with ESET.""While we see dangers within our security system, it would help if there were popups that could immediately alert us or the user of the endpoint that something was detected.""The product could have better integration with third-party products that would help extend functionality.""The scalability could be better.""The use of SQL Server can be improved. At times, there is a bit of challenge while linking it with the Javascript. ESET Endpoint Security requires modern technology or modern equipment on site. You will find it difficult to use ESET Endpoint Security with dual-core machines. If they can add the cloud management feature to their product, it will be much easier. If you look at this COVID situation that we are in right now, people are working from home, so you need to control the computers wherever you are. For example, if you are using any email setup and you are hosting it on your own, all the email traffic will be going through the same network. You need to protect all of your computers from the attack. It is best if you can do it remotely rather than having an IT person to come onsite to manage all computers and metrics etc, which isn't a smart way to do it.""It seems to have some issues with updates. When you do updates, it sometimes requests for a reboot, and even when you do the reboot, it still says that you need to reboot. Currently, on my computer, it says that a new ESET Endpoint Antivirus has been installed, and I need to restart the computer for the changes to take effect, but I've already done that, and the same message is still there, which is a little annoying. It should have a feature similar to the Intercept X feature in Sophos.""The solution lacks the automation I need.""A few times, we have had problems with downloading an agent. We had to try multiple times and multiple uploads."

More ESET Endpoint Protection Platform Cons →

"The price of the solution could improve by being lower.""Documentation could be improved; product cost is quite high.""They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances.""The solution's technical support services could be better.""There is room for improvement in the DLP component of Trend Micro Cloud App Security.""In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down.""The granulation of the policy setup needs to be better. Right now, it is too basic.""It would be great if Trend Mail Cloud App Security would be joined with a web security solution, making it a multiple-network solution."
