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.

Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature for our customers is the ransomware feature. It is very fresh and powerful. Bitdefender also has a feature called Ransomware Vaccine. With this feature, when a file from the ransomware is encrypted Bitdefender can revert it back to the original file. It automatically decrypts the file and puts the ransom in quarantine."
"Great protection against malware, ransomware, and any other forms of malicious software."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and simple, meaning it's not much complicated."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is the ETX and ETM endpoint protection."
"The nice thing about Bitdefender is that it has modules and layers that you can add as the requirement becomes more sophisticated and dangerous or threatening."
"The tool's graphical user interface is common and very friendly, making it an overall user-friendly product."
"Useful for the day-to-day analysis of the security infrastructure."
"I haven't had a problem with its stability yet. Since we deployed it, we haven't had one computer instance where we had to reimage the computer due to the virus."
"I can easily manage over 300 computers antivirus from my desk."
"The price per endpoint is excellent."
"We swtiched to Kaspersky Endpoint Security because we found our previous solution did not meet our requirements."
"Endpoint Security's most valuable feature is its heuristic analysis. This heuristic approach means that it learns from its past experiences. It is the most valuable feature they have. This contributes to dealing with ransomware, detection, and early mitigation actions."
"The policies are easy to make and controlled by the Kaspersky Administrative Security Center, which comes at no additional costs."
"One of the most valuable features of this product is that it's good for endpoint protection."
"The main feature of this solution is it is easy to use."
"The stability has been good."
 

Cons

"In terms of improvement of the solution, it could have better features. For example, having a firewall within. This way we would only need one solution."
"They need to improve the dashboard by adding a dedicated executive view. This view should provide executives with a clear overview of what's happening."
"There's room for improvement in terms of protection. That's my primary concern."
"The solution is sometimes resource-intensive."
"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 solution wasn't designed to be used in France."
"The firewall security could be better."
"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 encryption feature could improve."
"We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system."
"It's very heavy and it affects the computer's performance."
"I'd like to see them improve encryption and remote management in the future. Kaspersky could also improve its scanning technology. Other solutions have adopted machine learning and deep learning, but Kaspersky still uses signature-based scanning."
"The initial setup is complex."
"I would like to see better-enhanced features, such as protection against ransomware and different types of malicious malware."
"There have been some performance issues. They provide good security, but this slows down the performance of machines' servers. The software is not updating as frequently as we need."
"The training provided by the vendor to resellers and end users needs to be improved"
