TORONTO, July 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- SoftwareReviews, a division of world-class research and advisory firm Info-Tech Research Group, has published its 2020 Endpoint Protection Data Quadrant Awards, naming four gold medalists in the space:
- Malwarebytes EDR
- Webroot Endpoint Protection
- Sophos Endpoint Protection
- Avast Business
- Microsoft Defender
These five software vendors have provided their users with exceptional customer experiences according to users' answers to questions focused on satisfaction, which have been crafted by seasoned IT industry analysts. Inclusion of aggregated emotional response ratings in the areas of service, negotiation, product impact, conflict resolution, and strategy and innovation create a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and its product from the software users' point of view. SoftwareReviews calls this insight the Net Emotional Footprint.
Malwarebytes EDR, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +91, has performed exceptionally in all areas, scoring the highest in usability and intuitiveness, dynamic malware protection, and centralized management. Webroot Endpoint Protection, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +84, did particularly well with users for ease of implementation and cross-platform support. Sophos Endpoint Protection, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +83, scored highest for its centralized management portal. Avast Business, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +85, earned its highest score for ease of implementation. Microsoft Defender, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +82, earned its highest score for ease of IT administration and ease of implementation.
In general, endpoint protection software users were most satisfied with dynamic malware detection – and were most dissatisfied with forensics.
