However, it does not include **Anomaly/Malware Detection** or **Threat Response**. Instead, it offers **Monitoring** (**49%**) and **Application Security** (**47%**), which still address important security needs by helping businesses track endpoint activity, protect approved applications, and maintain better control across devices, providing teams with more visibility and stronger day-to-day endpoint oversight.

Several times over the life of our project, the application failed because of updates pushed by the developers that were never sent to us for testing prior to deployment that cause significant flight delays. Pros The diagnostic tools were helpful when they worked correctly. Cons Promises were made that the tool could select the stronger signal between WiFi and cellular, which is not allowed on Apple devices so it never worked. "Bread crumbing" was promised to show where connectivity issues were experienced and it never worked.

It works really well and this is something we cannot do without. Pros We use this mainly for Software Asset Management together with ServiceNow. You can integrate this and works well. Absolute can freeze, or remote wipe assets that are lost or stolen. This also prevents stolen computers from being used with other spares as the software integrates into the BIOS. The usage and location tracking compliments the lost asset features. We also make use of the Application Persistence features and this helps to keep our computers healthy with AV, Encryption, SCCM, etc. Finally the reporting is great and we use it a lot to compare with other data sources. Cons There is nothing we do not like about the software.
