"Peace of Mind with Robust Whitelisting"
5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I like that ThreatLocker Platform stops anything I'm not allowing, which helps prevent unauthorized application running. It's valuable because it gives me peace of mind by catching everything I haven't approved, helping me sleep better. The setup was pretty easy, I'd give it a 10 out of 10. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

Honestly, the only thing I would change is to add an option to certain groups that would only receive application updates at a scheduled time. The updating of the database at a scheduled time would allow servers using shared storage time to update their databases without issue. If you have older storage this can be a problem.

"Essential App Control with Some Setup Challenges"
5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I use the ThreatLocker Platform for application and elevation control, which helps implement app control without needing a huge team. I like the 'Deny by Default' feature; it's great and complements our antivirus well. If the antivirus does not detect something, ThreatLocker will block it if there is no allowed app policy. This feature is beneficial as it helps catch things our antivirus might miss. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

The elevation control granularity could be better. It would be nice if we could allow elevation for users by policy similar to app control. Today if you turn it on, all users are affected. This does not allow us to run parallel, making migration harder. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Strong Security Measures with Excellent Support"
5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I like that ThreatLocker Platform does what it says it will do, which is reassuring. I appreciate the great support; whenever we have questions, they are willing to help secure the environments we support. The security features are very handy for preventing users from accidentally running malicious code and for helping keep data from being exfiltrated with the policies they provide. Their support team is always willing to help our team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

The platform initially generated a bit more overhead of labor, particularly from requests from end users for upgrades, patches, and new software. It also required much more time to lock things down further beyond the initial easy setup. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Peace of Mind with Robust Application Control"
5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I like ThreatLocker Platform for its application control and unified audit log. The application control helps in securing our environment by preventing unauthorized applications from running, making us feel secure that no sketchy executables can be downloaded. The unified audit log is great for reviewing what's running on the machine and is also useful during the general troubleshooting process for execution. It has saved us time and money. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

Sometimes the beta portal or main portal go down but this is very rare. Some ways that global denies and policy order causes issues with known bad apps that share common libraries that known good apps use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Seamless Endpoint Security with Effortless Setup"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I love how the ThreatLocker Platform makes locking down endpoints and ensuring only allowed applications can execute. It gives me back control and insights into what's happening in my environment, which is great. I really appreciate the great interface and clear access to configuration and policies. This level of control not only restores trust but also saves time, allowing my security teams to focus on other important work. Plus, the initial setup was amazingly simple—I love it!

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I think there's a need for more visibility in the European SMB market. They could improve by being more present at local community events. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Application Control and Elevation Management"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I like the ease of use and the single pane view of the ThreatLocker Platform, especially after replacing multiple other apps and products. It allows me to control all application allowlisting and elevation from a single platform and provides a unified audit for logging. The initial setup was very easy; I had it deployed to the Proof of Concept within a couple of hours. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I don't like the automatic groups within the platform. I would like the ability to automatically add devices to the correct groups in platform rather than by using the deployment methods. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I find that ThreatLocker Platform is easy to administer, which is a big plus for me since I've struggled with managing other software allow listing tools in the past. A standout feature is the built-in application signatures kept up to date by the ThreatLocker team; they really help with managing the software, especially by providing necessary updates on frequently updated software packages. The deployment of agents is also easy, which made the initial setup pretty smooth for me. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I have some trouble with some of the network control functions for Macs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Response from Ben Goodman of ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform

Thank you for the detailed review. It’s great to hear that ThreatLocker is easy to administer and that the built-in applications help simplify ongoing management and updates for frequently changing software. We’re also glad to know that agent deployment was straightforward and contributed to a smooth initial setup experience. We appreciate your feedback regarding network control on macOS and will share this with our team as we continue improving platform coverage and consistency across operating systems.

"Powerful Control, High Security, Needs Better Training"
4.5/5
What do you like best about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

I like the vast control ThreatLocker Platform provides and how specific I can be in permitting sources. The storage control feature has been great for specific needs, allowing me to limit specific read and write actions for external storage devices. This control prevents the use of external drivers from being risky or always denied, which is crucial for our operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about ThreatLocker Zero Trust Platform?

Training is very needed as, for example, missing the window to use install mode is very easy to do. The university doesn't offer hands-on use to get familiar, and that would help a lot more than just text. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
