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.
PROSInstallation and configuration are extremely easy. Solution management concentrated in a single cloud based interface Excellent data control services
CONSRarely, 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!
PROSI 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.
CONSFor 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.
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.
CONSYou 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
PROSTheir support and development team have been super helpful and have been able to implement quickly the changes we requested.
CONSSome 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.

PROS100 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!

Panda Adaptive Defense 360
Overall experience has been excellent. The support team are competent and very helpful. The solution protects our organisation comprehensively. Thanks Panda!
PROSAdaptive Defense 360 protected our organization against zero-day ransomware attacks on the network. The threat hunting team at Panda Labs also notified us of unusually high amounts of RDP connections, helping us stop potential threats at the earliest point. It is also very easy to use especially the new Patch Management module.
CONSAt times the agent does not phone home as it should, and the endpoint reports protection errors. Easy to resolve though.

I use it as a defense mechanism against computer viruses
The installation costs are very low compared to the benefits of the System, the user interface has allowed to integrate the operators of the PCs to the security of the network and to the protection of their archives for the easy and efficient to use.
PROSWhat I like most about this antivirus is the user interface for the administration of the program. Also, the configuration features of the firewall is very complete for the defense against file attacks and unauthorized access
CONSI do not like customer service, it has not been very fluid. Usually I must investigate by other means of information before using this resource

For home usage, Panda Security provides the best endpoint security suite I've found
Commercially speaking, Panda has to improve a lot. But, Technically they do a great work constantly evolving their technology to match the ever more challenging security threats landscape.
PROSIt's the swiss army tool of endpoint security. I've been using Panda for more than 5 years. In the beginning I only trusted on its antivirus capabilities, but I've gradually activated all of them. Now, the quantity of security apps I run on my laptops has reduced dramatically to, basically, one. It's new version, Panda Dome, even includes a VPN connection service, which I already tried and will be using once my current VPN service expires in a few months. I've never had a problem with Panda's resources usage, even having all the protection modules enabled. File-shredding, password vault, file protection, application protection, wi-fi protection, safe browsing, etc. are a robust set of security tools, which provide the greatest value for thier price.
CONSI've had some trouble with yearly renewal, whenever I pay for it anticipating the and of the current subscription, I lost the remaining days. Most times I've been able to solve this by contacting support, but last year it wasn't the case. They send promotions for anticipated renewal, but the true is, the percentage you get as discount is the same of the months you lose of your current period.

Better managing protection
Managing the endpoints with Panda was a big change for the IT area. Our old solution required too much time to manage and the problems were often very complete, which did not allow us to have efficient response times. With Panda we have overcome that many things, such as having access to the administration console from anywhere.
PROSThe management via web of the endpoints was more than necessary and presented a great boost within the company. since having on-premise solutions had become quite complicated.
CONSAt the moment there is nothing that displeases us or generates a problem in the management. Panda is largely one of the best options

Great basic protection for my system
Panda has a very appealing user interface with options and configurations that are intuitive and easy to setup. It runs fast and protects my computer well against a wide variety of malware. I have not had an infection since I've used this software.
CONSSince it's not as popular as some other products, Panda probably doesn't get the latest malware definitions right away as others do. The program seems to need to be updated all the time, but at least that's a low effort job that doesn't prevent me from doing other things while that is going on.

Overall protection in spades
For those with little experience it’s at times too much. The different modes are useful, especially Locked mode. Makes for a very secured system when using, but for average or non techies, too much to handle.
PROSGreat at endpoint detection. It’s wonderful that they have packaged full protection (antivirus & detection) together.
CONSIf you use multiple platforms, you may have some issues. Works best with windows platform. No good for Apple.

While some advanced settings may require technical expertise, the security it offers is top-notch. For businesses seeking reliable network protection, the WatchGuard Firebox is a solid choice

It's minimally invasive, there are no pop-ups constantly interrupting with suggestions or adverts or prompts. It just does what it needs to and doesn't get in the way. It was also easy to set up and fix the licence to a new machine, even for a user with minimal experience.
CONSIf the machine is re-imaged, even if the ID is the same , it's very difficult to get the software to recognise this, this can result in duplicate licences.
