User Testimonials
	ESET PROTECT	Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suite
Likelihood to Recommend	Comprehensive threat prevention against a variety of threats, such as viruses, ransomware, and spyware is effectively provided by ESET PROTECT. The cross platform compatibility of this software is advantageous for business with diverse IT environments such as those combination of Windows, macOS, and Linux systems. Some industries, such highly regulated sectors with specific compliance needs, may find it more cost-effective, however it is less suitable for small enterprises with limited IT resources and for organizations with severe budgetary limits. Verified User Anonymous Read full review	With around 80 users and 150 devices (including 6 server instances), this solution served us very well, with instant admin notifications and scheduled overall reports. Detection appears extremely reliable, and the memory and CPU footprint of the service seemed less intrusive than Panda, which we had issues running on Terminal Services instances, as it seems to hog excessive memory allocation. Rollout was smooth and we never had an instance of a corrupt installation. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Pros	ESET provides comprehensive, transparent protection for my MacOS devices without interfering with the efficiency of my operating system. It's easy to install, configure (default settings are great for just about everyone), and update. ESET's customer communications, including a very detailed knowledge base online, make it clear I've chosen the right antivirus solution! Incentivized BP Benjamin Plotkin Technical Project Manager Read full review	Adds a second layer to office 365 filtering and often finds things that were missed. Built in XDR provides more details on a threat than you'd normally have. Overall Easy to use but still very powerfull. Built in web filtering is easy to use and helps when users are offsite. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	Price a little expensive - ESET is a great product, but it is priced at a high price and in a market as competitive as antivirus and security tools, this can weigh in the balance. Complexity in creating rules - it's quite complex to create rules in ESET, you end up wasting some time on it, it could be more intuitive. Incentivized Marcio Vizoli Analista de sistema Read full review	Apple Mac client is troublesome. Policies are clunky and difficult to understand. Security Agent dashboard lacks tools needed to remediate problems. Technical support was less than satisfactory. Incentivized Brian Duffy Systems Analyst and Administrator Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	I'm giving it a 10, because I would totally have no reservations about staying on with eSet for another 3 years once our contract comes up for renewal. We are looking to transfer to a different product in January, however. This is due to a special pricing contract with the state of Ohio that made a normally much more expensive product very affordable and was cheaper than our coming eSet renewal cost. This is a very special case only available to government and educational organizations, but had that not been offered, we would have gladly stayed with eSet. Incentivized CF Chris Funk IT Director Read full review	No answers on this topic
Usability	Provide execllent security agains malware, ransomware, and phishing. Easy to use and monitoring multiple devices and managing security settings remotely. Software firewall ability to secure network traffic and blocking websites and application at software level its gives very easy to configure .Zero-day threats as some other security products is missing with more advanced machine learning and behavioral analysis capabilities. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Configuration and support resources provided gave us everything we needed to configure the environment out of the box to meet the various needs of the business. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	Excellent support from ESET and when we had questions regarding the initial deployment they were there. The questions we put forth were answered immediately with great detail. Any of the items we put forth, scenarios, were given a good solution from ESET to fit our needs. This company stands by their product and are happy to step up when needed. Incentivized Eric Krueger IT Manager Read full review	The few times I needed to contact support I was fully satisfied. They worked all the way through the issue, no matter how long it took, and made sure I had a permanent solution. I was pleased with the professionalism, courteousness, and knowledge of the product they were supporting. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	Do the full scan at the beginning and be prepared to wait until it is done. It will find things you did not know were there. You can leave on the Apple firewall as well as the ESET firewall. There have been no conflicts. Remember to remove emails from being backed up, so you do not have spam on your backup! This was the mistake I made. Incentivized Robin L. Ore Independent Business Owner Read full review	No answers on this topic
Alternatives Considered	The two main competitors We compared ESET PROTECT against was Bitdefender and Withsecure: · Performance: ESET PROTECT was the lowest performance compared to other competitors. · Console/dashboard: ESET PROTECT had the most intuitive UI, had great automation features and is the only one that has an on prem option. · Security: Bitdefender was the strongest but only by a few % but due to the cost being double there was no way our management would accept the cost difference. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Trend Micro is a leader in Gartner Quadrant for endpoint protection, with the best awards and 3rd party certification about their readiness and capabilities with zero day threat and unknown attacks. The single feature that with the hosted solution you do not need internal resources to get the protection caught up better. Optimization for SMBs is a plus to consider, and as in the name of the solution, there should not be worries once you get things set up and running. It has been a great experience for sure. Incentivized Jose A Garcia Sales Representative Read full review
Return on Investment	My computer operation improved drastically so it was very effective in business execution. I think it is a very easy software to introduce to small and medium-sized businesses at a reasonable price. Even in license management, you will receive an email as soon as possible, so you can handle the renewal procedure in a lot of time. Incentivized Carine Oliveira Marketing Manager Read full review	It was a step up from what we were using before and has been a solid tool. For the number of sites and malicious files blocked I'd say it is a good product at a good price. Managing the admin portal and devices has been a huge time saver. Deployment can be via .msi or .exe.
