My OPSWAT

What do you like best about the product?

I used to rely on Microsoft Antivirus from the start. However, I'm quite an old-school guy and never thought malware or similar threats would ever affect me. But in a few incidents, I accidentally downloaded and clicked on malware-infected files. I searched for a solution to identify such threats, and that's when OPSWAT FileScan helped me in this area.

What do you dislike about the product?

I think the tool should offer a comprehensive report about the threats and their exact sources as well.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think their comprehensive reporting is the best feature, as it gives me real insight into what the file contains. The tool provides detailed information about the file itself, associated URLs, threat indicators, and much more, all of which are essential for an end user to understand

UI is less intuitive than some competing tools, which can slow down adoption for team members who are not already familiar with advanced malware analysis platforms. The added complexity means there’s a learning curve before getting the most out of the system.
I have also noticed that false positives occasionally occur, leading to extra manual review of files that are actually safe.
