It is the standard and has great features

What differentiates Symantec Endpoint Security from other similar products?
This software is distinguished for its ease of use in Japanese notation. Even if the indicator covers it, the yellow shield sign emphasizes it, and after opening the software, the rapid scan and complete scan are simple to understand, and it is relatively simple to educate individuals who are inexperienced with PC operation. When enterprise-wide information security compliance is required, we may use an operating system that did not include Defender prior to Windows 10, but we also support it so that there is a sense of security.
What is your favorite aspect of this product?
The concept is that you can protect your computer's security without ever knowing it. Furthermore, because it is a long-established organization, it has a sense of security, and it is very easy to use because it supports not just older versions of Windows but also Linux distributions. It's also ideal for USB terminals since it prevents client data from being easily added or removed. Lowering the security level on a specific system not only makes internal "what to do if a virus mixes in from the outside" simulations and testing easier, but it also makes personnel with inadequate IT conscious.
What do you dislike most about this product?
I am satisfied with the function, however, the parent company has changed, as has the cost. There used to be a lot of bulk discounts, but I'm afraid it's now more expensive than other companies.
What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?
There is a sense of stability, and because it is a long-established shop, it has a long reputation of providing excellent service, upgrading virus patterns is risk-free. However, because the correspondence is largely in English and assistance is declining, the automatic resolution capacity may be necessary as well. There are many virus detection patterns and access difficulties, but they can be prevented through configuration, thus being able to alter the protection content based on the machine and environment is wonderful. I'm relieved that the systems department can protect PC security without my involvement.
Pros
- Helps Innovate
- Continually Improving Product
- Reliable
