What reviewers say
Customizable Protection with Delayed Sync Issues
“I like that Symantec End-user Endpoint Security has many policies that can be used to tailor the solution to our needs. Also, it was listed on the leaders quadrant for a few years on the Gartner magic quadrant, and they had great support originally.”
Robust Multi-Layered Protection with Advanced Threat Detection
“It offers robust, multi-layered protection by integrating advanced threat detection methods such as AI and behavioral analysis. The solution delivers dependable defense against malware and zero-day threats, all while allowing for centralized management.”
User-Friendly with Deep Scans, But Scheduled Scans Slow Down Performance
“Symantec is user-friendly and performs deep scans on the user's computer. However, the quarantine folder should be cleaned out regularly.”
