Security with low impact on the PC performance

Likeliness to Recommend

9 /10

What differentiates ESET Endpoint Security from other similar products?

ESET stands out because it does not slow down the device or use resources extensively. The computer performs as usual but with enhanced protection. ESET has a central control panel to ensure everything is managed from the same location.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

ESET Endpoint Security provides a comprehensive protection against virus, malware, and online threats. It sends notifications and warnings on time to enable you to respond on time. The software updates regularly to ensure full protection despite development of advanced security threats. You can decide to restrict flash disks or other external devices to reduce the chances of data breach.

What do you dislike most about this product?

It is not always easy to manage security settings if you are not familiar with security features and how they work. You might expose your devices. Learning advanced settings might take time so you might need to rely on a third party. However, basic features and security settings are not complicated. I also feel that the cost of ESET could hinder some users.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Ensure you understand how to set up and change settings in the central control panel since a mistake could lead to security issues.
