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…
AnikIslam - PeerSpot reviewer
Automatic update feature could be better and multi-layered protection capability needs enhancement
The platform's ability to update the database from my device and manage user profiles is quite effective. It also provides web threat protection by blocking unwanted websites. It provides multi-layered protection. Although it could be more efficient, it is sufficient for regular purposes. I would not recommend it based on my experience. I rate it a three out of ten.

Pros

"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 product is worth the investment."
"It is easy to scale and it is suitable for organizations from small businesses to enterprise."
"They are constantly updating the solution against malware."
"The initial setup is easy."
"GravityZone can be controlled from the cloud."
"It is a good anti-malware product that is highly stable."
"The most valuable feature for me is the ability to whitelist, blacklist, and be very granular as to what I blocked, what apps I blocked, and what websites I block. I think that's probably the most valuable feature."
"The product works perfectly to prevent malware in our organization."
"The most valuable component of the solution is the malware detection feature."
"It is a powerful tool for zero-day attack prevention."
"We had the cloud suite of KasperskyEndpoint Security Cloud, and its monitoring was fine."
"The standout features of Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud include its cloud-based console and the simplicity of managing endpoints."
"In terms of software performance, it has been effective in providing good security."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security Cloud is a very good solution for endpoint protection."
"I find the EDR service valuable as it adds extra protection and provides a centralized view."
 

Cons

"The on-premises setup for Bitdefender sometimes faces issues with connectivity. Management of Windows Defender is a bit easier compared to Bitdefender."
"The graphical user interface for EDR could be improved."
"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."
"They need to improve their encryption capabilities."
"If we could directly push the agent to the script, it'll be very good."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"The solution wasn't designed to be used in France."
"The only problem we have, and I don't know if maybe it's the package we bought, is that it lacks the parts of data protection and application blacklisting."
"While the product provides a good level of protection, we need better support, especially in terms of being kept informed about new threats and specific configurations needed."
"One area where the product could be improved is in its delivery and installation process."
"Kaspersky doesn't provide local support."
"Kaspersky's cloud solution should be improved because the on-premises features are unavailable in the cloud."
"Its high CPU usage also slows down devices, particularly those with lower specifications like Core i3."
"Sometimes, the tool consumes a lot of resources from the endpoints, making it an area of concern where improvements are required since it currently consumes a little bit of RAM."
"Kaspersky's global ranking has been on the decline."
"The tool's update management can be better. In future releases, the addition of a DLP module would be valuable."
