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.

Solid security and performance; overall a useful tool
We use Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response for different in-depth solutions. It's a useful tool when you want everything in one module and you don't have a big budget for security. Other use cases are behavior detection, policy management, assessments, and patch fixings The most valuable…

Quotes from Members

"The setup was easy."
"We like the dashboard, the console, the reporting. It's very easy to deploy."
"It is a good anti-malware product that is highly stable."
"One of the most valuable features is the signature updating in near real-time."

"We've found the solution to be stable."
"The most valuable features are the reports."

"It helps improve security in our organization."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Expert offers centralized monitoring where we can monitor everything from a single point. I also like its security and network traffic features."
"The pricing is decent."
"We can scale the solution."
 

Cons

"The installation is not straightforward and should be easier to do."
"I have not had used the EDR portion of the solution to do any custom scripting to allow further advanced operations on the endpoints. From what I understand from reading the comments on reviews is that it is not particularly flexible in this regard."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"There was a bit of a problem deploying."
"The solution's workflow is very cumbersome and should be improved."
"Using this product requires quite a bit of training, which is hard to get."
"Occasionally websites are unnecessarily blocked due to monitoring software on those sites."
"Areas for improvement would be performance and pricing."
"The installation process could be more streamlined."
"The license prices for this solution are quite high."
"We would like to have better strategic information."
"It is not easy to follow the kill chain of a potential infection or malware."
"Installing Kaspersky is complex. It requires more work from system admins and takes almost one week to deploy, including integration and mapping with other solutions. You also have to configure Kaspersky EDR sandboxing then set up permissions for various teams and customers."
"My opinion is that behavior detection could work better. This feature gets a high rate of false positives."
"It does not cover all of our security issues."
"The solution can improve by providing automatic fixing of vulnerabilities and reducing the resources used in the server component and endpoint agent. They are very bulky and use a lot of CPU, memory, and hard drive resources."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"It is not that expensive. Compared to its competitors, it is well-priced and well-placed."
"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."
"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 cost is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The pricing is reasonable. Not too cheap, not too expensive."
"The solution is expensive in comparison to CheckPoint and Fortinet."
"EDR is priced on the cheaper side. Licensing for EDR is available on a yearly basis for around 80 SAR a year."
"Endpoint's pricing is good, especially compared to expensive solutions like Sophos."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"The price of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response is in the middle range compared to competitors. The pricing model is based on the users using the solutions. The cost for us is approximately 2200 Algerian dinars. The price of the solution could be reduced."
