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…

Provides a single dashboard, integrates well, and has predictive machine learning
Microsoft's new Azure Code Signing is causing a lot of issues for us with One Endpoint Security. We currently have two systems in operation, on-prem and SaaS, and many of the agents won't upgrade beyond version B11564 because these newer versions require Azure Code Signing compliance on the endpoint. If we are not up to date with our Windows updates, we don't have this compliance. Irrespective of the Windows version we are running, we have to apply patches to the machines, if the OS is not damaged, to make them compliant. After that, we can upgrade to the latest version of the respective agent. This process also applies to both Deep Security and Workload Security. I have two production servers: one for Windows and another for Mac. These servers are available in both on-premise and SaaS versions. Additionally, I have a test server that is located on-premises. The significant distinction with the SaaS version is the absence of a test server where I can install a new version. This means I can't allow the agents on it to upgrade and then perform testing. In contrast, with the production SaaS version of One Endpoint Security, I have numerous agents transitioning and coming online. It's essential that these agents upgrade to a newer version. Among these agents, there are five or six different versions, not counting the really old ones that have yet to upgrade due to ACS non-compliance. I can't leave the testing phase for an extended period because I still have outdated agents that need to be updated. These agents can't be left hanging while I wait to test the newest version that has just been released. New versions seem to come out every couple of months in the SaaS environment. In the past, when I solely used the on-premises version, I would review security bulletins for the SaaS version to identify any issues. I'm apprehensive about potential future situations involving this, primarily because the majority of our agents now operate on the cloud version. If a problem is discovered, rolling back on those agents would be challenging. It would require careful operation to revert them to a different version. The on-premises version of One Endpoint Security has an update function that allows us to manually update a bunch of servers. For example, if I just turned on a policy, I can force the agents to quickly download the policy and start following the update procedure or update settings. However, this function is not available in the SaaS version. This is because the system cannot communicate with the agent through the firewall. The SaaS version has an automatic update function and an update source entry in the update agents sub-menu, but it does not have a way to force agents to update. This is a problem because we cannot automatically update the agents. We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command. Currently, we have no choice but to wait until the agents find the updates themselves.

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."
"If you detect a virus, you can isolate the PC from the network and prevent access to the internet, network and routers. Once fixed, you can give access back to the client. We have not had this functionality using other solutions."
"The performance is great."
"After deploying Bitdefender, it provides detailed logs about any threats encountered and quarantines the threat. It synchronizes this information, and you can see which PC or device faced the threat when you log into the console."
"Useful for the day-to-day analysis of the security infrastructure."
"The features that are most useful are the simplicity of deploying the package and the cryptosystem for managing all the situations on the computer."
"The most valuable features are the solution's thorough detection and ease of use."
"It is stable."
"The solution is stable and integrated into the system quite well."
"The scalability is perfect."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is the virtual patching it provides."
"It's made it easier for us to monitor the security environment in general."
"The main benefit is the threat intelligence network of Trend Micro."
"I like One Endpoint Security's playbooks because they make it easier to set rules and policies. You can customize the playbooks and use them in more than one company. If you manage multiple businesses, it's a great way to set separate policies for each group. You can check for vulnerabilities, attacks, bugs, or anything strange. It also allows you to conduct performance analysis."
"I have opened three tickets with the technical support and they were responsive and asked me to send them my logs."
"It has the ability to share, which is not available in other products."
 

Cons

"While the solution is secure, it could have better integration."
"The solution is sometimes resource-intensive."
"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."
"The stability must be improved."
"The reporting is much too simple."
"The one thing that we are missing and want to see is user analytics. So, that is what I'm really interested in: behavior analytics and end user behavior."
"What would make Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra better is if Bitdefender employed more firewall policies and added even more features to the product."
"Their ransomware remediation doesn't respond as fast as BullWall does...Ransomware control needs to be improved."
"One of our firewalls once detected a threat, but Apex One did not detect it."
"While the single console offers partial end-to-end visibility into our IT security environment, we leverage additional solutions to achieve comprehensive coverage, so this area can be improved by Apex One."
"All the features in Trend Micro Apex One are not compatible or functional for all the different operating systems. For example, they have fewer features in other operating systems compared to what they have for Microsoft Windows. It would be nice if they could have one solution which all functions work on all kinds of operating systems. It would be much easier for those who have different operating systems in their environment to have one solution."
"The CPU usage when scanning is too high and we have run into bottlenecks were it consumes a lot of CPU time."
"One of Trend Micro's weaknesses is its high resource utilization."
"The solution could be improved by providing better training to the vendors."
"We want to manage the policies in the group. Currently, if I am at one location and other users are at other locations, the main problem is that we cannot manage policies location-wise. The policy management should be improved. I should be able to group them based on the location. If one location has four policies and another location has the same policy, currently, I have to scroll the screen to find out the policy as per my location."
"In the future, the solution should include the XDR feature."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is not that expensive. Compared to its competitors, it is well-priced and well-placed."
"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."
"The price is per license per endpoint. The price is different for everyone, but we find the price is cheap for us."
"I rate the product's price a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"I have very good pricing for the solution, which is one of the reasons why I am not switching to other products. I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"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 pricing is competitive."
"Licensing is done on a yearly basis and it's workstation-based."
"Opting for cloud solutions can provide a more cost-effective and efficient alternative, with fewer dependencies on physical setups and unexpected costs associated with on-premises tasks."
"When compared with other solutions, the price could be better."
"There is an annual license."
"Trend Micro Apex One's subscription model is definitely on the expensive side."
"The licensing fee and support are bundled together."
"Licensing costs depend completely on the number of users or licenses. They have a specific pricing structure. For example, if you are looking for 100 users to be on the product, in the Indian market (we're based in India), the cost is nearly $2,500 to $3,000 maximum for one three-year license."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"Trend Micro Apex One's pricing is good."
