Excellent Solution! Worth trying out

Panda's Adaptive Defense 360 (AD360) takes cloud-facilitated security to the following level, joining an abundance of endpoint assurance highlights with information control, encryption and patch management tools. This makes it hitting home with GDPR consistence, as they can shield endpoints from malware, keep them refreshed with the most recent fixes and stop information leaking, all in a single tool. Endpoint features highlights are broad, including firewall, document, web and email antivirus, website filtering and device control.

PROS

Installation and configuration are extremely easy. Solution management concentrated in a single cloud based interface Excellent data control services

CONS

Rarely, some devices loose connection with update servers and do not sync properly

WatchGuard Endpoint Security—Impeccable in my years of experience

As a small shop MSP/MSSP, without the highly automated EPDR collection of modules and features in WatchGuard Endpoint Security, it would be impossible for me to maintain such a high level of safety, security, and system reliability for my clients—There simply would not be nearly enough hours in a day!

PROS

I am a small shop MSP/MSSP and there is no way that I could safely and securely handle my own business and all of my clients without the Cloud-based automated EPDR and zero-trust capabilities built into such a user-friendly interface. This is why I have used WatchGuard Endpoint Security (formerly Panda Adaptive Defense 360) since 2015.

CONS

For the most part, WatchGuard Endpoint Security's user interface is very similar to the Panda Adaptive Defense 360 product that I have used daily since 2015 but there have been changes (some say improvements) that have been a little challenging to get used to.

Reason for choosing WatchGuard Endpoint Security

I review competitors annually to see if WatchGuard Endpoint Security and WatchGuard Systems Management are the best, safest, most secure, and least time-demanding solutions for my clients and me, and those four criteria seem to repeatedly go to WatchGuard ever since they acquired Panda Security's suite of automated EPDR and zero-trust solutions and improved upon them.

Get the software configured correctly at the beginning.

PROS

Seems to be a fairly solid endpoint protection product, with a fairly intuitive web based console for administering the deployment. Seems to catch all known threats, and we purchased an add-on for protecting us against zero day threats.

CONS

You really need to ensure that the software is configured correctly before you deploy it in your organization. Our experience was that the out-of-the-box configuration leaves you a little exposed to threats, I would recommend deploying the software at the highest level of lockdown in order to keep yourself safe. You can always loosen things up as you go along when you are more familiar with the functionality of the software.

Top Performing Security Solution, Great Support.

Panda has been consistenly ranking among the top performing antivirus solutoin for our needs. Moreover, they have proven very effective in implementing the custom changes we requested without hesitation

PROS

Their support and development team have been super helpful and have been able to implement quickly the changes we requested.

CONS

Some features need to be polished. There are some features that make no sense (I.e. showing a piece information with dashes in between, but can only be found in the searchbox without the dashes).

Reason for choosing WatchGuard Endpoint Security

Mainly because of the support. They were willing to implement features upon our requests. They also sent people in-house to help solving any issues that presented.

Reasons for switching to WatchGuard Endpoint Security

When we switched from W8 to W10, the performance was hugely impacted by the antivirus software, and caused BSOD.

A Trusted Antivirus System

Not the cheapest product, but definitely one of the best !

PROS

100 user one month trial with an email link or small download to install and 80% of the time the installation will uninstall any existing AV software installed! Once installed, the system just works!

CONS

With over 2000 devices we installed we have had less than 5 that we needed to contact tech support with. Contacting tech support can be clunky but when contact is made , the support is fast and professional and quick!

Reason for choosing WatchGuard Endpoint Security

Ease of use and the good reputation of the AV software
