It is very well suited for a small-scale business that is looking to protect its devices from a security threat. And also it can be used for individual purposes to protect their PC. There are some feature restrictions based on subscriptions. They also provide 30 days free trial to experience their services before they opt for paid ones.
We are reseller of Kaspersky Endpoint Security. This product is part of our Business Customer online protection portfolio. We are not using it internally, but we have a testing platform with 30 licenses for for internal testing within our Department. A lot of Business Customers in Bosnia have big problem with shortage of skilled IT staff. Based on that problem a lot of customers choose Cloud solutions as they are cheaper considered that they use external IT staff. Kaspersky Endpoint Security is ideal for that usage. You can implement it without using remote access, on mobile devices, laptops and PC-s. In Covid-19 pandemic as people use their devices outside organizations, this is must have, as the Kaspersky provides better overview over company assets, especially with remote working scenarios. I found it fairly easy to set up, especially for small and medium companies. For Companies with Microsoft 365 subscriptions there is also a 365 solutions.
Pros
Easy admin overview.
Small performance penalty.
Great for PC and mobile device protection.
Better protection then default security options for Windows 10.

Sometimes update would fail on client computers for few days.

Great for small and medium companies without dedicated IT security staff. Cloud based administrative portal is great for remote work. It is not easy to integrate with Apple products. Installation for iPhone and MacOS is complex and I would not recommend it.

Pros
Detecting threats with accuracy.
Immediate scan of removable drives which often are notorious threat vectors.
Can scan for limited software vulnerabilities.
Stable.
Cons
Being able to throttle its scan performance centrally, it can suck up CPU for workstations and laptops during scheduled full scans.
Less CPU usage - It was removed from all our servers in favor of Microsoft System Center Endpoint Protection as all our virtual servers were literally squeezed of their CPU usage by the application.
Installation is two fold, agent and the endpoint protection software.
Likelihood to Recommend
It is well suited for heuristic accuracy on detecting threats, immediate scans for removable devices, and has very good application control where you can set only approved software to run or totally ban USB storage devices and have an option to decide what to permit on USB, like banning storage USB devices and allowing USB keyboards.
Our company uses Kaspersky as our primary network security and firewall manager. It allows us to handle network transactions safely and efficiently.
Pros
As a user with Kaspersky installed, the program does a great job of staying out of the way of the end-user's activities. No pop-ups for updates, no annoying windows about security health. It's very considerate of user experience.
System scans and adjustments are completed in the background, allowing users to focus on their various tasks.
The program also scans any external hardware that connects to the PC, thus providing safety from potential threats on local hardware.
Cons
My experience with the program has always been positive; the UI is simple, the experience is very smooth.
Likelihood to Recommend
Kaspersky is clearly well built for large company networks that need a comprehensive network security solution that runs all its actions in the background with limited-to-no end user interaction. I would highly recommend it.

Kaspersky Endpoint Security is being used as one component across the whole organization as part of a security through depth strategy. The Advanced Licensed version allows End-point control through a central server, The Kaspersky Security Center (KSC). The advance version of the KSC not only manages and controls anti-virus and mal-ware protection, but is also used for inventory management, patching, remote installation, and remote control of endpoints.
Pros
Endpoint virus protection
Endpoint management of application
Inventory
Cons
The PC imaging tools are difficult to set up and use
Device Encryption tools are getting better, but are difficult to manage.
The policies are powerful, but could be broken up. More help can be provided in what the policy element does within the policy setup

Kaspersky Endpoint control comes with several levels. It is best to compare the features at each level, and make sure that your company does not already have other tools giving you that feature. It works best in a primarily Windows environment, but has tools to manage Linux and Macs when needed. The advanced versions are great when a company does not have a Microsoft Enterprise agreement to replace System Center features.
