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.

Reduces organizational risk, low on machine load, and helps prevent ransomware
The most important aspect of the solution is that the load on the machine is not very high. It doesn't take up battery resources. The solution prevents ransomware and other threats. So far, it is working brilliantly. The dashboards and UI are user friendly, as is the ability to configure as needed. It seems to have a lot more capabilities. The XDR capabilities, in particular, look very strong. We're currently looking into that. If we want to do integrations with third parties, we don't have very many challenges around that. The ability to ingest and correlate across our security solutions is very useful. It's impressive. The AI engine it has is excellent. It helps us consolidate our security solutions. While it does not allow us to reduce alerts per se, it does a good job of correlating. The way it's integrated into the SIM, it's working to the expectations we have. The solution helps free up people so that they can work on other tasks. We don't have to grow our team too much now. My security team is actually quite small - about five people. We all get more time to handle other tasks. We've noted that it does help reduce mean time to respond. We can identify events easier and those that are most critical are brought to the forefront. Previously, we were in the dark. Now we have so much more visibility. It's been a huge improvement. It's effectively helped to reduce organizational risk.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The performance is great."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR's installation is straightforward."
"The installation is straightforward."
"The advanced direct control on offer is excellent."
"I have found Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to be highly scalable."
"It is a very stable solution."
"It efficiently investigates security incidents."
"The product is stable. It has a small footprint, but it does a lot of heavy lifting."
"SentinelOne is a stable solution."
"Another valuable feature is that if a machine is infected, one that may infect other computers within the network, we have the capability of segregating that machine in the network so that it remains connected to the internet but is cut off from the other machines in the network. That helps prevent spreading of the infection. That's a very unique feature, one I have not seen in the last 10 to 15 years from any other antivirus program. That's amazing."
"The most valuable features are forensic investigation and ransomware prevention."
"The solution's in-place upgrades have been very helpful."
"The solution offers excellent detection and integration capabilities."
"I really love how simple and effective the product is. I really love the visibility it gives me into the endpoint. I really love that they open their product to the customer to enhance it with custom-made software, giving you the APIs to program it. Those are all things competitors don't have."
"I appreciate the network control as well as the device control."
"We find the solution to be scalable."
 

Cons

"I would like to see the capability for remote installation added, in particular for servers."
"We would like to see a more advanced dashboard."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"Technical support could be faster and more responsive."
"The software itself is solid. It would be better if it was more of a real-time solution, like SentinelOne. The one thing that holds me back on the SentinelOne side is that I can blacklist websites and stuff like that, but it's not as granular as Bitdefender. With Bitdefender, I feel like I have more control over what I can whitelist and blacklist."
"The on-premises setup for Bitdefender sometimes faces issues with connectivity. Management of Windows Defender is a bit easier compared to Bitdefender."
"There was a bit of a problem deploying."
"If we could directly push the agent to the script, it'll be very good."
"We did use the Ranger functionality. However, there was some scanning going on and it caused a lot of noise, so we had to disable it."
"We need to analyze the threats and make decisions based on that, so the analytics could be better at analyzing exactly where the threats are coming from."
"It seems like they are doing a lot with their automatic updates. They can maybe slow down the actual release cycle to make it easier to deploy the most recent and then do it using the live update. They can continue to work on that because trying to get agent changes through change management platforms and get approvals and testing can be quite difficult."
"The anti-ransomware technology takes up a lot of disc space."
"Singularity Complete needs to improve its ability to granularly select and extract the executable files that I want to run."
"We'd like SentinelOne to upgrade automatically. It doesn't automatically update the agent if some system has an older version of the SentinelOne. It has to be triggered from the console."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete needs to improve the integration capabilities with SIEM."
"The only problem I have is they don't manually review the threat files. That's the only thing I'm concerned about."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is a fully functional trial that we used and we didn't have any issues."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"When I first started using this solution I was paying $80 annually. I did not pay any additional fees. There are other solutions that are cheaper on the market."
"We need to pay for a yearly license for the solution."
"I rate the product's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cheaper than Kaspersky. There are no additional costs apart from licensing ones."
"If you look at the solution's price point, it's actually low market value, especially in comparison to other ones."
"It has a suitable price for every company and organization."
"There are cheaper options out there that I know are not as effective. I have administered several of them, not for this organization but for others. The thing I like about SentinelOne is that I know that if it raises an alert, it is worth looking at, so we are not dealing with a lot of false positives. It is rare."
"SentinelOne Singularity Complete meets all enterprise requirements and is priced accordingly."
"We are on a subscription model by choice. Therefore, we are paying a premium for the flexibility. We would have huge cost savings if we committed to a three-year buy-in. So, it's more expensive than the other solutions that we were looking at, but we have the flexibility of a subscription model. I think the pricing is fair. For example, if we had a three-year tie-in SentinelOne versus Cylance or one of the others, there is not that much difference in pricing. There might be a few euro or dollars here and there, but it's negligible."
"Our licensing fees are about $5 USD per endpoint, per month."
"SentinelOne makes licensing easy by reducing the number of modules or packages that they have to offer. A lot of other vendors make licensing very complicated with separate modules or separate costs. By bundling necessary features, SentinelOne ensures that security leaders are not left confused by options. This bundling of necessities has served our needs well."
"We buy the licensing in bulk. From a pricing standpoint, because we buy in bulk, we get very good pricing. Based on its functionality and capabilities, it is well worth the price. I do not think it is at all expensive based on what you get in the solution. We use the complete up to the core. Our pricing is probably a little bit more than somebody who is on the core. In general, it is well worth what you get for the price you pay."
"SentinelOne was half the price of CrowdStrike."
"At this time it is only a trial. After the trial period, I am going to purchase two licenses from SentinelOne."
