Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros | |
The encryption feature is very good. We use it for protecting accounts, which is its most valuable feature. It has reduced the number of incidents related to the loss of information. It helps us put antivirus solutions in place and prevent malware from getting to our machines. The management console gives us the ability to quickly control who sees what, ensures we are on the latest version, and up-to-date. | The Central Management server. |
Cons | |
The agent can be improved on the solution. Right now, we have an Endpoint Protection agent as well as an encryption agent and another for the DLVs and other services. We would prefer a single agent for the entire product. We would like some advanced security protection features. It's a bit difficult to get good support. Their response times are really bad. I can only patch monthly. I don't know what the solution is there, besides being vulnerable for three weeks out of four. But there's got to be an option somehow. I would like them to have integration with a wider range of non-Symantec products. | MacOS X is missing features. |
Pricing and Cost Advice | |
The licensing costs yearly are $5000. It can be expensive. However, if you plan to scale or are at a large enterprise company, this product could be what you need. | Licensing and pricing is on par with the market. |
