Performance + protection

I have been very happy with the performance and protection offered by Endpoint Antivirus. Virus definitions are frequent, which helps keep our machines up-to-date and fully protected.

Allows full control

The Rip & Replace service that is provided was among the biggest benefits of using ESET Security Solutions as it cut deployment times significantly. Unlike most other solutions that try to generalize and condense options in to one category leaving you with little control over the setup, ESET Security Solutions provides robust options broken down to allow full control of your setup.

Management from anywhere

With the ERA console, the ability to see and manage my endpoints from anywhere was a huge plus. [It's] light on resources, heavy on protection. :)

Runs in the background

We’ve been using ESET for a couple of months and we don’t notice its existence. That is, it isn’t warning users about virus signature files being out of date (because it updates them automatically, and this doesn’t break, like with some other vendors).

ESET is reasonably priced and has been very reliable.
