AV-Comparatives Awards 2022 for ESET

ESET achieved great success in AV-Comparatives’ Enterprise and Consumer Main-Test Series of 2022. The tests covered different protection scenarios, system performance, and false positives.

We found ESET Internet Security to be very well designed and easy to use. Non-expert users are provided with safe default settings and a clean, easy-to-navigate interface. All the essential features are very easily accessed. The settings dialog – which has a useful search function – has plenty of advanced options. For power users, a number of system tools are available. Help features and access-control options are both excellent. In our functionality check, sensitive on-access protection detected malware on an external drive or network share as soon as it was opened in File Explorer.

ESET PROTECT Entry with ESET PROTECT Cloud provides a cloud-based console for managing the endpoint protection software. We feel it would be suitable for smaller businesses with tens of seats, but it can also cope with larger networks. The package includes a choice of Endpoint Antivirus or Endpoint Security for client PCs, along with File Security for Windows Servers.
