Threatlocker rocks!

10 /10

What differentiates ThreatLocker from other similar products?

Great application whitelisting with a central console.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

This app keeps our user base safe from themselves.

What do you dislike most about this product?

The app does push the balance of usability and security more towards security. It removes the ability of the user to install apps on their device without support desk help. This is great for security, but does put more short term requests to the support desk team.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Threatlocker has been a great application that tightens our security and takes it to the next level.
