Absolute Secure Endpoint Reviews & Product Details

One of the things we particularly like is how simple and intuitive Absolute Secure Endpoint is to use. It provides a clear overview of applications installed and running across endpoints, making it easy for us to understand what software is present on each system. We also like the visibility it provides into endpoint activity without requiring a complex learning curve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall, we are quite satisfied with Absolute Secure Endpoint and haven't encountered any major issues so far. If anything, continued improvements in automation, reporting, and deeper endpoint visibility would make an already easy-to-use platform even more valuable for our security team.

The tool is really good at discovering software that's already installed, monitoring location, and alerting, of the endpoints. It aslo has buuilt in role access so we can assign out roles as needed. It's great that multiple departments can use the tool with all needed to have the same level of access.

I also like the remote wipe, and lock feature of it. t's nice to know that if a device ever leaves our possession we can turn it into a brick as with 2 clicks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't have any real dislikes with the product. For our use case it works perfectly across multiple platforms. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One of the standout features of Absolute Secure Endpoint is its robust asset management and asset scoping capabilities. I also appreciate the remote wipe feature, which provides an added layer of security for protecting sensitive data on lost or compromised devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One drawback is the limited customization and formatting options available for templates used with frozen devices. Expanding these capabilities would improve flexibility and usability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the ability to remotely lock a PC when needed, which gives me peace of mind knowing devices are secure no matter where they are. The platform is very easy to use, with a clear and intuitive dashboard that makes it simple to check the status of each PC. Having this visibility and control in one place saves time and improves security management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

So far, I have not found any significant downsides. It has performed reliably and met our needs without issues. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We found that Absolute's application persistence was not as good as some other products, in the end we moved away from Absolute and are now using PDQ Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Theft and loss mitigation is no longer what it once was, they last incidents we had they were unable to find the stolen devices. What made it worse was the weeks spent trying to get the stolen device flagged as stolen in their system support was really lacking no one seemed to care. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What stands out most about Absolute Secure Endpoint is the level of device protection it provides. Even if key hardware components—like the motherboard or hard drive—are replaced, the device stays protected and fully manageable. That kind of persistence gives me real peace of mind. I also value the global device-tracking capability. As long as the device is powered on, I can see where it is, no matter where it’s located. It’s a powerful and reassuring feature for both security and asset management. The resilience features are another major advantage. Absolute ensures that a set of required applications remain installed and healthy, which helps maintain consistency, security, and compliance across devices. The initial setup was also simple and quick, making deployment straightforward. Overall, the combination of persistent security, tracking, and resilience makes Absolute Secure Endpoint stand out.

The primary issue I’ve experienced is the slow turnaround time for service requests and updates, which can affect operational efficiency. The ServiceNow integration is helpful, but it still feels limited—especially when it comes to automation. Right now, end users have to rely on the backend team to run automation tasks, which introduces delays. Allowing users to execute more automation directly would make the platform far more flexible and efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Absolute Secure Endpoint provides me with comprehensive visibility over my devices across the globe. It is reassuring to know the exact locations of my devices, which is especially crucial given the remote nature of many of our users. This visibility ensures that I can monitor and control the devices effortlessly, even when they are not physically within our infrastructure. The ability to track and manage devices remotely means that I can protect our assets by locking them if they are ever lost, stolen, or need to be decommissioned, providing an additional layer of security and control. It brings a sense of comfort and security knowing that I can act swiftly to protect sensitive information and minimize risks associated with device management.

I find the check-in process for Absolute Secure Endpoint to be cumbersome. It sometimes takes 15 to 20 minutes, or even longer, especially if the device needs an internet connection to check-in. This delay can be frustrating and often requires me to perform a remote restart using Intune or other software to force the device to check-in. Additionally, the initial setup was challenging, as many aspects didn't make sense initially, requiring external assistance from a trainer provided by Dell. Having to rely on additional help for setup indicates the process could be more user-friendly and intuitive. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Absolute gives us confidence that no matter where our devices are, they remain visible and under control. The persistence technology is unique — even if a machine is tampered with or reimaged, we still maintain connection. That kind of reliability has saved us time and reduced stress for our IT staff.

The platform can feel a little complex when you first start using it. There are a lot of powerful options, which is great once you learn them, but it does take some ramp-up time before you feel completely comfortable navigating everything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The security aspect with geolocation has helped us a lot, especially in cases where some clients do not pay for the service, as we can block the device. We have also had situations where they do not know where the devices are or they have been stolen, and there we can block them through the BIOS. Even if they erase it, the block remains, which is excellent.

Personally, I haven't been using it for long, but what we've seen so far has worked very well. The use is very intuitive, and both the installation and implementation on the computers are quick and easy. We use it frequently, and the management from the console is very user-friendly, especially for creating groups and managing devices among the different projects we handle.

The software has several useful features, and the best part is that it integrates easily with our current operations. Additionally, when we raise tickets or requests, customer service has been very good, always helping us resolve doubts clearly and quickly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We understand that it is specialized software, we would like to have courses on the new tools that we manage to see as soon as we have doubts. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use the software inventory quite often. This allows us to easily see which devices are missing antivirus software or our patch management software. Our LTE devices can connect to it as well, so it's pretty accurate. Absolute support is very good as well; everytime I've called in I have not had to wait on hold for very long and the technicians have been very knowledgeable so the issues have been resolved in a very timely manner Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We had lost a device and the location history was a little hard to find in the web interface. Whenever I have had to perform actions on missing devices (or any other actions) I have found it difficult to find out what every action does. I have had to use google to figure out which each one Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
