Symantec Endpoint Encryption Scalability

CO
Senior Network Associate at AMCON, Inc.

We have more than 500 Symantec Endpoint Encryption users in our organization. Recently, we increased from 300 to 500 users. For now, we don't have any plans to increase further. However, once the number of endpoints on the network increases, we will need to reconsider.

I rate the scalability a nine out of ten.

Scalability isn't a concern for us. I would rate it around nine out of ten. Currently, we have around four thousand users who extensively utilize the software, but we don't have any plans to increase this number in the future.

Symantec Endpoint Encryption's scalability is good, but it can be better. I rate its scalability a six out of ten. I have not had issues scaling up, but deploying the solution is bad. One of the organizations using the DLP with Encryption has about 5,000 users.

The product can scale if a company needs to expand it. It's not a problem.

We have around 3,500 users on the solution currently.

The scalability has been quite good in general. We could expand if we needed to. 

At the time we were using the solution, we have upwards of 10,000 people on it.

We don't have any kind of problem with scalability. It has been really good for us. Our customers are small and medium businesses or SMB companies, and they didn't have any kind of problem. We're talking about 200 or 250 PCs or less. I don't know about its scalability for a large number of users.

We haven't been through the process of scaling it as such, but we have plenty of experience in deploying it to the cloud. However, sometimes a customer who wanted to deploy it for the cloud won't get back to us, and I think in these cases it has to do with finances rather than more practical matters.

I can't speak to the scalability. We have about 2,000 people on the solution currently, however, I cannot speak to the scaling process or if we have ever attempted to scale it. We likely won't increase usage.

This solution is scalable.

It's efficient and we discovered that we can extend the perimeters to cover the entire infrastructure.

We have ten people, but we need three more for the succession plan, and a back up for someone who is not available so that there is continuity when managing the solution.

I can't comment on the scalability because I have not deployed on more than one thousand endpoints per customer.

We have five to six customers with each having six to seven hundred endpoints. Our customers' IT supporters have outsourced us.

Senior Security Analyst at a tech vendor with 11-50 employees

We are a small company. We have had no issues with the scalability nor do we anticipate issues as we grow.

The product works best with large companies, but if you will be opening multiple branches (scaling up), the product may be a fit for you.

You can get any size or use it in any size organization. So, scalability is not a problem.

Scalability isn't applicable here because it is an endpoint encryption tool. We have about 200 people using the solution. Our usage will increase if we get new employees.

The solution is deployed on a large scale as we operate 1,000 locations in India and it's at all of them. You can't just protect the branch office, you need to protect every device in every office.

The scalability of the product is fine. With PGP servers we can link the Windows account, active directory account with PGP so when I do an installation on a computer, all I have to do is open the profile of the new employee's machine and it is linked to a server. It doesn't matter how many people I link in. We currently have 40 people and the product is installed on all our computers. Most people in our company are consultants who work on the premises of our clients. They are not located within our offices.
