Deep Instinct Prevention Platform Previous Solutions

Aaron Branson - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of Marketing, Cybersecurity Solutions at Netsurion

We did use a different solution previously. The primary drawbacks were the endpoint sensors frequently spiked CPU usage, causing IT tickets; and too many false positives.

We had an old antivirus from Symantec that we didn't renew.

As soon as we were hit with remote work and we needed to send everybody home with a laptop, I wasn't comfortable sending them home with the Symantec antivirus. Even though it had the latest antivirus definitions, it didn't do a good job of what it was supposed to do. I wanted something that was more behavioral-based. 

I came across DI at a cyber security conference and talked with the reps there. I really liked the technology and then reached out to them and signed up.

It replaced another product that we had called Cylance. We wanted fewer false positives. Our prior solution gave us a lot more false positives. With Deep Instinct, we were able to cut that down by a lot. Now, all our desktops and laptops have Deep Instinct on them.

We were using another artificial intelligence solution, Cylance, that actually worked really well, but it lacked some of the features that we were looking for, including granularity and configuration options. Both Deep Instinct and Cylance are pre-execution and both work well.

One of the differentiators between the two at the time was that Deep Instinct had so much configurability compared to Cylance. We could be very specific with how we set up our exclusions and allowances. I think Cylance has caught up, but at the time there was a difference.

Previously, I used Trend Micro. Trend Micro is a bad product, as it uses too many resources from my clients. So, none of my clients wanted the solution.

I work for a company that is a distributor for Deep Instinct. We use it as well as sell it. It's in our interest to be familiar with the product to sell it and support it.

Director at IT Junction

I moved out my other solutions after I got Deep Instinct. I didn't want to have anything else further complicate the matter, in case something happened with a machine. I removed them all and just use Deep Instinct.

I said, "All right, let me take your solution on board and also be an advocate in my country." I was one of their first customers and partners in the country because I was so convinced about the technology that they presented. I've never seen anything like it before. I can see the power of it, I can see how it can benefit customers.

Previously we were using Webroot, but we are in the process of getting rid of it. We are thinking of moving all of our clients to Deep Instinct, and Sophos. We may have some clients on one and some on the other.

We have been using Sophos for five years now.

Sophos uses a huge amount of resources. There are a lot of components, and because it has so many, sometimes there are problems with installations. When there is a problem it takes forever to fix it. Also, it drains battery life on my laptop or tablet. With Deep Instinct, it lasts for hours.
