    What version of Endpoint is currently installed on the clients? Did you create a new software install task that you sent to the clients to get Endpoint upgraded to the latest v7.1?

    If you install Endpoint 7.1 on a troublesome client over the existing (older) version, does it install alright?

    Yes brand new software install task.  Most of the failed installs were running 6.3.2016.0, one of them is 6.4.2014.0.

    Other clients that did update correctly were on these older versions.  I haven't attempted to manually run the installer on one of these failed machines as I wanted to find the -reason- why the remote install failed.  Where can I find the reason?

    It is horrific mate. I recommended this software to multiple clients. I can just imagine them starting to doubt the rest of my advice. IT is all about trust, results and quick response times. Trust in this product and it's ability to deliver what I believe is the basic function to any product - the ability to download and install it. 

    This should be of the highest priority!!! Work arounds are still not always working. I've got 3 devices at one clients location that refuse to synchronise the necessary packages and as a result are left vulnerable. Lets hope Windows Defender works for now ?

    I hope you're listening Eset.  One of the main reasons I was so eager to get v7 rolled out is because i'm sick to death of receiving emails that we've exceeded our license count, all because the software is too damn stupid to realise it is assigning licenses to the same machine multiple times.

    Of course this wasn't fixed in v7, contrary to other forum posts from months ago advising it would be.

    Our license is due for renewal in a couple of months, not sure why I would renew at this point.  It's not a capable enterprise product.

  3. So I've just started migrating my organisation of 30 machines from v5 to v6 and i've regretted it almost immediately :(

    Here's some background info on our environment:

    • Mixture of domain and workgroup PCs (only domain PCs are being moved to v6 right now)
    • Domain GPO has disabled windows firewalls on workstations
    • Simple L2 switched network with no blocking of broadcast traffic etc
    • All workstations are left powered on 24/7 (no sleep/hibernation)
    • The first few agents were installed via a batch file that ERA generated, some succesfully installed via GPO, others could only be installed manually
    • We have configured an eset policy for the agents to connect every 20 minutes

    And now for the issues we're having:

    • Some agents are connecting periodically, but not every 20 minutes as per policy (but policy count shows that it has been applied)
    • Some agents haven't connected for 2 days, others for 6 days, others for 8 days etc
    • Sending a 'Wake-up call' doesn't work, last connected date doesn't change
    • Because of these problems, tasks I create to push a v6 endpoint security package to always fail

     

    I can't seem to find anywhere that will give me detailed logs identifying why the agents arent connecting OR why packages aren't being installed.

    ERA Server version is 6.1.444.0
