"The product is lightweight and does not slow down the PC. The malware and virus detection rate is also very good."
"The performance is good."
"It offers features like system hardening, vulnerability management, patch management, and device control, which are not present in other solutions."

"We receive good protection with this solution."
"The manageability of the product itself is its most valuable aspect. You have the underlying EPO, and on top of it, you can deploy the various components as you require. This is unlike other solutions like Symantec where you have to deploy everything or nothing. With this solution, you can choose to only deploy antivirus or only deploy a firewall, or only something else. I choose the components and that deployment is done through EPO. It makes manageability very flexible."
"Tech support is responsive. They're good, the very best."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"It provides a lot of information and great visibility, with really great options for managing the environment."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"The new central console is better than the earlier one."
"What I like best is the integrated end-to-end security that works with the security information and events manager."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The solution is not stable."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"Intelligence aspects need improvement"
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"Scalability depends on various factors."
"An area for improvement in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum would be to provide the cloud console platform to all users, regardless of the number of licenses a company has purchased. For example, a company with 50 employees should have access to the cloud console platform even if they have only purchased a certain number of licenses for the solution."
"For improvement, they should make the scanning process faster. The scanning and updating take more time."
"I want Kaspersky to extend its products to internet protection. For example, I would like them to develop a firewall integrated with EDR."
"We have had some issues updating Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum."
"We would like more data to be available from this solution, in order for it to be usable in strategic decision making."
"In terms of the Pakistani market and talking from a salesperson's perspective, I'd suggest that Kaspersky introduce a bundle of Kaspersky EDR-Optimum or Kaspersky EDR-Expert along with its Business Select/Advance suite."
"Support is an area for improvement. It should have faster response times."
More Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum Cons →
"It would be nice if the solution was a bit more stable."
"Trying to move away from the signature model for antivirus and malware blocking is something that would be nice. Instead of having to update every day, which is signature-based, moving to more of a kernel or architecture-based model would probably be beneficial."
"Tech support is not as helpful as they were in the past."
"They can improve its resource consumption, such as memory, and maybe provide better or smaller updates. It always takes a lot of resources, but it has been getting better. I have been using McAfee products for the last 20 years or so, and I know it is getting better."
"The software download features could stand improvement."
"There are certain shortcomings in the features concerning DLP in Trellix, where certain additions must be made in the future."
"Signatures to protect against new attacks."
"It would be helpful if the controlling of connections coming to the PC could be done from McAfee's side so that we can block those connections."
