Offers unified interface, which also helps you scan Outlook email

My main concern is that it's a bit heavy for some devices. Like Kaspersky or McAfee, it uses more RAM or memory. Similar to that, it causes issues for users and their own resources, similar to that. If you deploy on old legacy devices with only 1GB of RAM, then it could be a problem. Recent versions shouldn't be a problem with at least 16GB of RAM. Bitdefender should have its own app security built in. After integrating SIEM solutions and log collecting, they could have app security built on top of that. For each application, especially when dealing with financial data, if there was an option for data breach control, that would be fantastic. Because nowadays, people are using the internet from home, and we don't know what network they're connecting to. For situations where the network security is questionable, having a security control built into the antivirus would be essential. It's a common requirement nowadays.

Great threat response, provides for proactivity, and has automated threat identification

In terms of the Pakistani market and talking from a salesperson's perspective, I'd suggest that Kaspersky introduce a bundle of Kaspersky EDR-Optimum or Kaspersky EDR-Expert along with its Business Select/Advance suite. When I say this, I understand the Pakistani market and how slow and less eager organizations are to invest in IT and internet security. Most of them don't invest until or unless they face any attack or network failure. However, in addition to the product, Kaspersky should give EDR-Optimum on the cloud for less than 300 users as well, in case any customer has its whole network on the cloud. That way they can easily use it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The installation is easy and it takes approximately a few hours. We are deploying it from a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool. All you need to do is click on it and the installation is complete."

"We use patch management to keep our software up-to-date, significantly mitigating our risk of vulnerabilities. We're confident that Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security will either already know about new threats and have updated our machines, or they'll advise us quickly on mitigating them until an update is available."

"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security has a lot of telemetry that allows me to really see what's going on with the device."

"The most valuable feature is the IDS."

"The tool has a firewall module to control traffic. It also has a feature to map incidents and provide information about attackers and the environment."

"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."

"The most valuable features of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security are remote administration and deployment, comprehensive firewall protection, malware protection, and antivirus."

"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pros

"The performance is good."

"EDR Optimum's best features are its dashboard, control of external media, and user-friendliness."

"The most beneficial aspect of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is its protection capabilities, followed by its device management capabilities. The ability to remotely install software is highly advantageous, making it a convenient and helpful feature."

"The product's most valuable feature is the flexibility of installation with the console and a simple administration strategy."

"Instead of having to wait for alerts, the IT security team can actively hunt for threats by proactively scanning endpoints to spot anomalies and security breaches."

"It offers features like system hardening, vulnerability management, patch management, and device control, which are not present in other solutions."

"One of the most valuable features of Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is its cloud console allows users to remotely isolate a single computer from a network in the event of an attack, enabling them to perform root cause analysis without disrupting the entire network. This is particularly useful for organizations that may not have expert resources for endpoint detection and response."

"The most advantageous aspect is tracking and taking action automatically."

Cons

"They've got all this training that's available, but it involves stuff that doesn't really encompass the solution as a whole."

"We had experienced a crash and had to reinstall it."

"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security could improve the RDP, I have problems sometimes."

"The tool needs to improve patch and vulnerability management."

"The live monitoring service from Bitdefender's center is expensive and has room for improvement."

"Potential areas for improvement could be more accessible and immediate support for critical situations, especially considering the regulatory challenges in healthcare."

"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."

"Overall, Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is quite good. It always has new features which customers can use for free, so I can't say that something is missing in the solution, though one area for improvement is that the cloud version of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security still can't connect to a central SIEM. The on-premises version has that capability, but the cloud version doesn't."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security cons

"An area for improvement in Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum would be to provide the cloud console platform to all users, regardless of the number of licenses a company has purchased. For example, a company with 50 employees should have access to the cloud console platform even if they have only purchased a certain number of licenses for the solution."

"EDR Optimum's scalability could be improved."

"I want the tool’s pricing to improve."

"We would like more data to be available from this solution, in order for it to be usable in strategic decision making."

"The initial setup is a bit difficult."

"Security features could be improved."

"I want Kaspersky to extend its products to internet protection. For example, I would like them to develop a firewall integrated with EDR."

"Support is an area for improvement. It should have faster response times."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We purchase the solution for three or five-year intervals. We paid approximately $150 for 10 to 15 users."

"Its price has gone up since our last renewal. My renewal fee has gone from $517.99 in 2018 for 3 years to $739.99 when it renews this year in July. I love the product, but a price increase of over 40% is a bit exorbitant."

"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."

"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."

"The pricing is reasonable when I compare it to other security solutions, particularly Kaspersky, it stands out. It offers an excellent solution at a more favorable price point."

"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."

"The tool's pricing structure is good. We use an annual subscription."

"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pricing and cost advice

"Kaspersky gives a consolidated price with a good solution. If we choose something else, we need to add other options on our own."

"The solution could be made a bit cheaper."

"The pricing is totally reasonable."

"The tool’s pricing is yearly. The solution’s pricing is expensive."

"The price of the solution is reasonable. It cost approximately €10,000 annually."

"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is affordability, even for companies with limited budgets, such as those in the Pakistani market. It is a subscription-based license."

"The price is good, not too high."

"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response Optimum is more affordable than the endpoint security product of Fortinet. Whether it's worth the money depends on your security strategy."
