Centralized control effectively manages devices while updates require powered-on systems
I use Bitdefender GravityZone EDR for the grooming industry. It is primarily utilized for the office environment The features I find most effective for threat detection include centralized control policy distribution and the control of independent devices, such as printers, laptops, and desktops…

Great features, good patch management, and useful ransomware protection
I also have experience with Sophos and Kaspersky. The main difference is that some features are not available in Kaspersky. And, for example, the patch management part is not included in Sophos. On the Kaspersky side, they have a patch management part. However, we need to purchase an additional option to enable that feature. With Comodo Protection, patch management is already included with the product, and we don't need to buy it separately. Also, the main advantage is performance. When we implemented Sophos on the endpoint, the CPU utilization went higher. When we installed Comodo, the memory of the CPU utilization is very low. We can implement Comodo from XP and SP3 to the latest operating system. However, with Kaspersky or Sophos, they are not supported for that or Windows 10. Comodo is supporting Windows XP SP3 and all our operating systems. That said, the Sophos Intercept X Advanced option has a web filtering part, or integration. Comodo has only basic filtering, and web filtering is there. That means we can do the URL web addresses and block and allow the connection and that's it with Comodo. Comodo does have a separate product for that, Comodo Secure Internet, where we can configure and filter all the web filtering parts. That would be an extra solution at an extra cost.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"GravityZone can be controlled from the cloud."
"The installation is straightforward."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR needs to be more stable."
"It's a very stable solution."
"We like the dashboard, the console, the reporting. It's very easy to deploy."
"The product is worth the investment."
"One strong point is that it doesn't have many background services running on the Windows system or server operating system. This minimizes impact because it's a lighter version."
"With Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra, we don't have to worry about our endpoints or attacks. Our security has become stronger. This has been a reliable solution for our company."
"Overall, I would rate Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection a nine out of ten."
"The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management."
"It's user-friendly, compatible, and accessible."
"Auto Containment is a valuable feature."
"They offer the whole package. Remote monitoring and management (RMM) is included with it, which is pretty nice. They also have Windows patching and third-party patching. It was easy to use for protection. The containment engine was pretty nice for securing our environment."
"It really protects and does its job. It totally blocked every attack attempt, and no attack attempt was successful."
"Containment is the best feature of the solution."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
 

Cons

"They should improve the solution's patch management feature."
"The on-premises setup for Bitdefender sometimes faces issues with connectivity. Management of Windows Defender is a bit easier compared to Bitdefender."
"I would like to see the capability for remote installation added, in particular for servers."
"They need to improve their encryption capabilities."
"The stability must be improved."
"Application Control should be available on the cloud."
"The graphical user interface for EDR could be improved."
"I would like to see a remote desktop for installed endpoints so administrators can see what is on a user's screen or what a user is doing."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
"The menu could be cleaned up."
"We'd like the solution to include advanced web filtering capabilities, similar to what Sophos offers."
"The product must provide a web filter to block websites based on specific categories."
"They need to enhance the performance of the agents. Currently, the performance is going low when the agent starts a full scan. The agent is consuming a lot of resources while scanning. When there are a lot of documents to check, it slows down the endpoint. This is the only thing that worries me about Comodo, but this issue is also there in other products. It is missing DLP, and I know that they are working on adding some data loss prevention capabilities. They have added some capabilities, but these capabilities are not yet mature. I hope they will enhance these capabilities because it is important to prevent the data from going out from inside. We are protected from the outside, but we also have to be protected from the inside out."
"Would be good to have a better understanding of what it is that you've got in quarantine."
"The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions."
"The licensing fees are high. The company should work to try to lower them for the customer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is a bit expensive in the Philippines."
"The price is per license per endpoint. The price is different for everyone, but we find the price is cheap for us."
"Licensing is done on a yearly basis and it's workstation-based."
"There are some differences. It's more cost-effective, yet it provides the same functionalities as Defender. That's why I've been exploring the comparisons. We pay for it annually, and it's a per-seat payment."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra's pricing is competitive in the market."
"The solution is not expensive but there are cheaper options in the market. In terms of competitiveness, the price is reasonable with no other additional costs besides the licensing fees."
"I rate the product's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"It has a suitable price for every company and organization."
"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The product can be considered fairly cheap."
"The price of this product should be lower."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."
"It's a cost-effective solution"
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
