What makes the SoftwareReviews Data Quadrant different?
The study involves gathering intelligence on user satisfaction with both product features and the experience with the vendor. Aggregated emotional response ratings are included in the areas of service, negotiation, product impact, conflict resolution, and strategy and innovation to create a powerful indicator of overall user feeling toward the vendor and its product – all from the software users' point of view. SoftwareReviews calls this insight the Net Emotional Footprint.
Malwarebytes Endpoint Detection and Response, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +91, ranked strongly on dynamic malware detection. Acronis Cyber Protect received a Net Emotional Footprint of +92 and exceeded user expectations by including a breadth of features. With a Net Emotional Footprint of +87, Sophos Intercept X Endpoint scored high on the capability to recover files removed and encrypted by ransomware. Avast Business Endpoint Protection received a Net Emotional Footprint of +90 and received user appreciation for endpoint security support to identify and block threats on Mac workstations.
Webroot Endpoint Protection, with a Net Emotional Footprint of +87, performed well on providing cross-platform support. Blackberry Protect received a Net Emotional Footprint of +91, includes dynamic malware detection.
Endpoint protection users were most satisfied with dynamic malware detection by adding heuristics to files to identify similarities with known malware and block it. However, the users were most dissatisfied with the lack of customization capabilities.
