Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, McAfee, Sophos and others in Endpoint Encryption."The solution’s installation was easy."
"We can extend it to all of the critical endpoints and the servers, and we can ensure the confidentiality of the data."
"I like the solution for its encryption."
"The management console gives us the ability to quickly control who sees what, ensures we are on the latest version, and up-to-date."
"We have been very satisfied with the solution's security capabilities."
"The solution is easy to use."
"The initial setup was easy."
"Their cloud features such as Cloud Endpoint security, ransomware modules, malware, and other modules are very effective."
"The Central Management server."
"The product can be expensive. Price was a factor in moving away from the product."
"One feature that is lacking is integration with Symantec Information Centric (ICT). As it is now, I don't see how to integrate the encryption with ICT, and in my opinion this is an area that certainly requires encryption, even though it's no longer supported by Broadcom."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"There are some issues with the single sign-on with the active directory. We had a few problems related to the synchronization between the active directory and the login features of the Symantec products because the users made many password changes during the day. The time for synchronization with the solutions can be improved. I would like to see mobile encryption. There should be a possibility to include all the mobiles of a company in the console. Many customers are asking about encryptions for tablets or cell phones, but we don't have any product that we are comfortable with to recommend to our customers."
"I think that they should improve the on-premises version to include the manageability and simplicity that is available on the cloud."
"I do not find the environment to be very user-friendly."
"From an administration point of view, maybe it would be ideal to have it centrally managed."
"Its remote deployment should be improved. Currently, there is no remote deployment for Symantec Endpoint Encryption. You have to install it manually. There are some issues with AD integration and the time taken to reflect a password on the Endpoint Encryption Manager when a new user has changed the password, but they are already working on these issues, and these will be resolved in the next release."
"MacOS X is missing features."
