Five enterprise-ready antivirus systems – #Webroot, @Webroot
This is an interesting article! And I’m happy to see the only cloud-based product on the list!
5: Webroot SecureAnywhere Business – Endpoint Protection
Webroot SecureAnywhere Business – Endpoint Protection is the only solution on this list that is cloud-based only. Some of the others offer a cloud-based service option, but Webroot is the only one that does not offer an on-premise system. However, Webroot is still one of the most impressive applications in the list. The dashboard gives admins a quick overview of their enterprise, endpoint details can be quickly checked, and policies, reports, and logs can be easily viewed. On top of that, though, is the client: it installs in seconds (literally about 6-8 seconds for me) and scans in less than two minutes (1 minute, 42 seconds for my test system). Also, Webroot claims that their client software will run alongside any other security software without conflict. The main disadvantage of this system is its cloud-based nature – company’s deploying Webroot may have limited Internet bandwidth or security concerns with cloud software.
