Provides telemetry, risk assessment, and behavior monitoring
I like the risk assessment tool built into Bitdefender GravityZone EDR because I'm really into risk assessments and vulnerability testing. I think that is crucial and needed, and I don't see that often with most EDRs. The telemetry I get from the tool can be used in a SOC I use. The solution has behavior monitoring that allows you to monitor people's specific behaviour and practices. You can then ask the person to stop or start doing something. You can also do application management and access management. You can do many things within Bitdefender GravityZone EDR because it is like a one-stop shop scenario.

Excellent anti-ransomware protection, zero-day phishing protection, and web browsing filtering
We used to use other security solutions (Windows Defender and Kaspersky), however, we had security incidents that affected us (viruses and ransomware) and they were very difficult to identify or when we did identify them it was already a long time after the incident occurred and we did not know the cause and therefore affected the operability of our company considerably. Since we made the decision to move to Check Point Harmony we have had greater visibility of everything that happens on our devices and take a preventive approach rather than a reactive strategy, in addition to being more confident that we have Check Point protecting us.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"You can analyze any incident or malicious behavior. You can take action from within the EDR, and it can assist you in understanding how the attack was initiated or any malicious behavior in your environment."
"GravityZone can be controlled from the cloud."
"The cloud management is easy and useful, especially in our case when we have multiple offices in different locations."
"The solution's deployment is very easy and flexible."
"It's easy to deploy."
"The advanced direct control on offer is excellent."
"What I have found to be valuable is after every new release of the solution there are more features. At the time that we bought Bitdefender GravityZone, it was their top solution. We went from their Enterprise version to Elite, Elite HD, Ultra, and now there is an Ultra Plus available."
"The features that are most useful are the simplicity of deploying the package and the cryptosystem for managing all the situations on the computer."
"It provides encryption for operating systems and protects browsers against malware."
"The dashboard is user-friendly and easy to understand."
"Harmony Endpoint is able to detect, monitor, block, and mitigate attacks on the endpoint and it builds and maintains relevant logs for later inspection."
"One of the coolest features is that it provides an HTML report on the laptop and the endpoint console for the administrator."
"We are able to manage all our endpoints from a single cloud console."
"Check Point Endpoint Security helps us ensure device control and security. It helps us make sure users can access only the network resources they should be accessing and keep malware to a minimum."
"Forensic Analysis provides a complete analysis of threats via detailed reports."
"The license plans are also very nice and distributed - allowing for a separation between types of users with more basic or more advanced options."
 

Cons

"Application Control should be available on the cloud."
"Policy customization and deployment need a little bit of improvement. The push policies, the first line, and all those things."
"They should include the Hebrew language for its technical support in terms of communication."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra should include more advanced features than their competitors in the market for the auto-detection of viruses and threats within the environment."
"The graphical user interface for EDR could be improved."
"What would make Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra better is if Bitdefender employed more firewall policies and added even more features to the product."
"They should improve the solution's patch management feature."
"Their ransomware remediation doesn't respond as fast as BullWall does...Ransomware control needs to be improved."
"They need to make the user interface on the server more intuitive and user-friendly."
"We know that Check Point has a very good database about threats even Check Point tries to make this EDR stable still there are some issues we were facing after upgrading or taking TAC to help its got resolved but Check Point really needs to work on metadata."
"Check Point offers solutions with only a few features for our company's customers' sites."
"Tech Support must be better."
"Support's service and the response times can be improved. The triaging of the tickets takes a long time and the tickets are only resolved with escalations."
"We have observed some policies are not working as expected."
"Specifically, there are gaps when it comes to security."
"Its customer support services and user interface could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cheaper than Kaspersky. There are no additional costs apart from licensing ones."
"As I am on a different model, my clients pay me on a monthly basis."
"It has a suitable price for every company and organization."
"The pricing for Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is not that high. It's okay for its service, so I would download it on my personal computer and buy it for myself as a customer."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"It is not that expensive. Compared to its competitors, it is well-priced and well-placed."
"Licensing is done on a yearly basis and it's workstation-based."
"Price-wise, Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is a bit expensive in the Philippines."
"The solution is too pricey."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"In comparison to other software solutions available on the market, it comes at a higher price point."
"I bought them for 12 months and I genuinely cannot remember what I paid for them. I think it's about 100 pounds per user per year, so about 10 pounds a month per person."
"In addition to the standard licensing fees, there is a cost for support."
"I rate the product price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"One is the basic license, which only gives you threat prevention. In the second one, you will get port protection. In the complete license, you will get all the licenses, like anti-malware, sandboxing, port protection, and all the licenses. It is very easy to deploy the tool."
