Kaspersky EDR OptimumWebroot Endpoint Protection
Likelihood to Recommend
I’m convinced that the key is guaranteeing the 100% of coverage, with the best configuration possible and without pain or hit at resource consumption and harmonies performance.I would like that the solution detecting, inventorying, and alerting about some host/device unknow or don’t register in KSC. Don’t depend on Device Detection function.

The software tends to do a good job of basic protection but is not the best for larger clients and is not as powerful as some others offered on the market today. The support is not the best either, have had a hard time getting assistance in the past trying to resolve issues.

Pros
  • KEDR Optimum is helping to see threat kill chain formation, which helps to get clear picture of the what exactly attacker was trying to do during attack.
  • We are crating prevent execution rules to block the threat in our complete infra.
  • Ioc scan to validate and remove the any active threat entry from our endpoints

  • Webroot Endpoint Protection works very well at blocking threats quickly and can undo changes if a file turns out to be harmful, which has helped us in the past.
  • It runs quietly in the background without slowing down endpoints, even during scans, which is great.
  • You can manage all your devices from one online dashboard, making it easy to set rules and see security alerts. One pane of glass is always great.

Cons
  • Agent package size is little big, if it can be optimize with lite package would be great
  • If possible Host Integrity functionality can be added, to take action as quarantine the non-compliance machine to connect our enterprise network
  • Many times KSC cloud operating slow, if it can optimized for the faster response

  • It was missing detections. We found a better product that detects more malware.
  • Deploying the endpoint agents was easy, but deploying Web Threat Shield was not and users could disable that functionality.
  • When you deactivated old endpoints, they were put in an "inactive" category. You could not then delete the "inactive" endpoints. For someone who likes to keep things clean, this was annoying.
  • I found the rollout of endpoint agent updates to be rather slow.

Likelihood to Renew
At the moment and unfortunately we'll not renew our licenses, due to the Russian conflict and the company policy that has forced us to get rid of any Russian related product. Before that incident, we were very happy with the product and we did not even think once about changing it... Maybe on the future...

It has proven successful so far in our environment for controlling malware/virus outbreaks.

It does what it needs to do but we have noticed that malware is sort of uncommon and we have started to switch to other solutions of combating malware and suspicious activity such as using products like ThreatLocker and Field Effect, combined with things like malware bytes to perform scans when needed.

Performance
This item can always be improved, perhaps by pre-elaborating very long reports, such that they are built progressively so that when the user wants to consult them, the delay is minimal. It would also be interesting to have a warehouse of reports, which serves as a repository where they can be consulted whenever needed, adding AI capabilities that allow data to be linked together and improve the analysis and possible correlations of events.

Support has been reliable up to this point. A request can easily be generated via the console and support responding in a reasonable time. We have not had any major issues other than the basic agents not communicating with the console and the like.

I had some difficulties with remote users. I ended up needing to open a remote tech support session and finish the process. Other than a few speed bumps, I was impressed with the engineering of the install. Because of time differences, I was done installing in two days. The cost, per license, could be less.

Alternatives Considered
Kaspersky EDR Optimum is the evolution of Kaspersky Endpoint Bussiness, a more complete product, which runs the same software on Windows 11 and Windows Server. Now, we already use Kaspersky Sandbox on-premises, which has now been unified with KEDR as Cloud Sandbox. These improvements and unifications have made life easier for Security administrators.

We would consider Webroot in the top 5 when you factor in ease of use, level of protection, and cost. Probably not as comprehensive as other end-point security solutions but the proper level of functionality and support for our needs. Question what impact the acquisition by OpenText is having on future development and support. OpenText also acquire Carbonite for back-up support.
