The reviews, commissioned by ESET, assessed the recently launched ESET Endpoint Security and ESET Remote Administrator, which were made available in North America on December 11, 2014 and globally on February 25, 2015.
ESET Endpoint Security
AV-Comparatives were very impressed with both the functionality and the user interface of this security product. While it retains the simplicity of the earlier versions, AV-Comparatives commended the modern look of the product’s new design, which has been optimized throughout for use with touchscreens.
The testing organization also highlighted the design of the status display, saying it was both clear and provided an easy means of reactivating disabled components. Additionally, the review says that ESET Endpoint Security warnings were “clear and practical, and the software has been secured against removal or deactivation by unauthorized users.”
ESET Remote Administrator
The report highlights the completely new, modern design of the product and found that installation, customization and deployment were simple.
They also noted that security statuses, shown via a number of colorful pie charts, allowed the administrator to find important items easily – finding that the design avoids overwhelming the user.
The report concludes by the findings: “Overall we feel ESET have done a tremendous job of making a console that is powerful enough to cope with thousands of clients, but simple enough to use in SMBs as well.”
