Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, ESET and others in ATP (Advanced Threat Protection)."The most valuable feature is Click-time URL protection."
"The Application Control code and the easy integration are valuable features."
"Technical support has been helpful and responsive."
"What I like most about Symantec Advanced Threat Protection is its notification capability."
"They manage to solve detection quite nicely. There is some rather elaborate detection compared to other providers."
"Real-time threat analysis is quick and takes action on threats immediately."
"The incident management on the solution is very good. You get a lot of detailed information about an incident. You also get a lot of documentation in connection with the CVI or integration."
"It has certainly helped out our audit efforts because we each stay compliant in terms of various security standards."
"The most valuable feature of Symantec Web Isolation is the user-friendliness of the solution."
"The cloud platform needs to have improvement in terms of the user interface and the different capabilities it has available. It needs to match the other leading next-gen EDR products that are available in the market. That's the reason why we are stepping away from Symantec. Their cloud environment is just generally lacking in comparison to others."
"Entire threat protection is not available for the advanced features."
"The support for new OSs and older OSs could be a little tighter. They need to be more upfront about what protection services they're going to provide on new OSs. I haven't seen the Windows 11 version out yet. It is either already released in Beta, or the Beta will be released soon. There could be a little bit more advanced updates on what they're doing to help protect Windows 11 environments. They can let us know in advance so that we know it is going to be protected. We can't roll out the new OS without putting end-point protection on it. So, they should tell us what is their support model for that, and what are they doing to protect Windows 11. They're not telling me, and that's a criticism. The same issue is applicable to all the other antivirus tools. It is not just Symantec; all of them have this problem."
"It's a strange situation where the infrastructure of the consumer or customer is behind some kind of firewall and they have always used some kind of customized proxy. In this situation, the ATP has a very tough time to pass the information to the cloud and back. To fix, it requires a more elaborate and complex configuration for that particular case."
"Scalability could be better."
"It also needs network-based threat protection for shared folders and files."
"The support has dropped down to a five out of ten."
"The security features need to be improved."
"Symantec Web Isolation could improve by reducing licensing costs."
