Cynet packs endpoint protection, EDR, network detection and deception into one agent, sold as Protect, Elite or All-in-One by quote. The 24x7 managed detection and response starts at Elite, and Protect only has basic EDR. No prices or operating systems are published. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published, so there is nothing to set against this category's $2.58 to $6.50 a month; the listing says it is by quote. Pricing depends on package, size and add-ons. - **Free plan and trial: F.** Nothing free on record: no free plan and no trial, and a demo request is not a trial. - **Features: C.** One agent covers EPP, EDR, network detection, user analytics and deception, but Protect has only basic EDR and full EDR and 24x7 response start at Elite. - **Ease of use: C.** Business product with a console and agents to roll out; no store rating is on record and the listing shows setup work, so it sits at the ordinary grade. - **Platforms and integrations: C.** Only a web console is on record. Supported operating systems, phone apps and integrations are not stated. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Cynet's own pages on 13 November 2026. Not based on using the product, and shorter than our full reviews. ## Where it stands among antivirus apps - Cynet's GPA of 1.6 is higher than 3 of the 56 other antivirus apps we grade, and level with 2. - It stands best on platforms and integrations (C, above 10 of 56) and worst on free plan and trial (F, above 0).

That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 51 of the 56 other antivirus apps grade higher. - You could not: An engine that recognises new malware as it appears. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. **Tags:** Malware protection, AI features ## Alternatives - [Huntress](https://toolgpa.com/tools/huntress): Managed endpoint detection and response with a 24/7 human SOC.
