Centralized encryption has secured all endpoints and has maintained compliance for remote devices
The best features of ESET Endpoint Encryption include full disk encryption, which is the most used one, ensuring all the endpoints are protected. I rely on this daily. Its main key focus on centralized management lets me monitor, enforce policies, and remediate issues from one console, and it allows for user-friendly deployment. Using ESET Endpoint Encryption has had a clear positive impact on my organization, especially in terms of security operational efficiency. From a security standpoint, I achieved 100% encryption coverage across all the endpoints, which significantly reduces the risk of data breaches due to lost or stolen devices. I also saw a noticeable drop in security incidents.

Greta for remote control and management with good performance
I'm not on the most current version, however, I know one area that I didn't get into that I kind of wanted to is to have a mobile device management tool. My understanding is it's improved a lot from the version I have. It may be a feature that is already available. Other than that, it really does everything I need it to do, and don't have any complaints.

Quotes from Members

Pros

"The initial setup is easy."
"The tool does not slow down the computer."

"I have used it in the past because it works quite well for encryption."
"The solution's UI is user-friendly. Even a non-technical person can use it."
"ESET Endpoint Encryption works as an antivirus system."
"The Remote Administrator is the most valuable feature that ESET offers for us. Centralized management of our ESET environment is what I like about the Remote Administrator."
"The solution allows me to easily monitor the encryption and password management of multiple computers in my network and gives me visibility into user use."
"The setup is pretty straightforward."
"It's allowed us to manage a couple of hundred PCs with just one person - me."
"The stability is good."
 

Cons

"Sometimes the server console is very slow, so the performance could be improved."
"My problem is that there's a technical glitch and they don't have a fix for it. It's not working with the latest version of Windows, which is a problem."
"ESET Endpoint Encryption needs to improve pricing and security."
"I would like more robust reporting as part of the Remote Administrator."
"The solution should have better synchronization with active directory users and passwords for use in the encryption."
"The overall compatibility of the device is an area where the solution lacks."
"There should be more frequent updates."
"Integration with central management needs improvement."
"I'm not on the most current version, however, I know one area that I didn't get into that I kind of wanted to is to have a mobile device management tool. My understanding is it's improved a lot from the version I have. It may be a feature that is already available."
"They used to be really good, however, lately, not so much. The quality of support has dropped."
"If they could introduce it on the cloud, it would be ideal."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We paid for an annual subscription, and it was reasonable."
"There are some inexpensive products compared to ESET Endpoint Encryption, but they lack the essential features."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is the lowest and ten is the highest, I rate its pricing a two."
"It is neither very expensive, nor cheap. Overall it is affordable and there is a long term arrangement between our company and the solution providers for license."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and could be more cost-effective."
"Instead of installing ESET on each machine at each location, we just do it remotely. This has been a time saver for us."
"ESET Endpoint Encryption is moderately priced."
"The National University System dedicates 500 of their 5000 licenses to us, which is $14/yr per device. Most companies are paying $99 or $120 per device a year."
