More Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert Pros →
"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 analytics are important because if there is an abnormality then it provides that information to us."
"WatchGuard is very user-friendly. It provides us with all of the security services we need."
"The tool provides automated responses."
"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."
"The most valuable feature is the correlation of logs from different devices."
"I like WatchGuard's network segmentation features. It's easy to configure user policies."
"The most valuable feature, in my opinion, is the dimension logging platform and the network traffic filtering."
"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."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The support needs improvement."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is very heavy on the system resources. It uses a lot of memory and the system can become slow."
"We'd like more integrations to be available in the future."
"Kaspersky needs to strengthen its standing in the market."
"My opinion is that behavior detection could work better. This feature gets a high rate of false positives."

"They should include XDR features in the solution."
"We'd like to see them improve the automatic response."

"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 reporting isn't so good. If they worked to improve this aspect of the solution, it would be much stronger."
"The solution is a bit confusing and there are unusual complications with setup."
"The ease of detecting where an issue is should be improved."
"The administrative UI/UX could be significantly improved."
"The interface is not the best."
