Gives a good snapshot of what's going on
The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake. While I can go into it and run the scan for the all the information, I must enter each thing individually to see what I need. I can't print or email a report to somebody in a different environment or to any of my clients for the purpose of advising how they must proceed. All I can do is go into and look at it. It would be nice to able to take the report and determine what must be focused on most critically, as opposed to merely being given a tremendous amount of information. This should be addressed. The solution should also do a better job of informing a person of what happened. The son of one of my clients, who has the solution installed in his house, was blocked from playing a certain game. While the solution only informed the person that it was blocked, it did not state what it had blocked. With another client who was in the middle of playing a game in his office, the solution blocked this but provided no telemetry whatsoever. I had to search in an attempt to see what was being blocked. Turning the solution off, however, enabled the game to work perfectly. It was blocking it for some reason, but I had no clue why it was doing so. The solution should be providing reports of everything, not just specific incidents. The solution has many features, but does not inform one of what was actually done, leaving a person in the dark when it comes to things that are not apparent. For specific threats, one need simply login to know what is transpiring. When there was a need to involve support, I would be instructed to download a certain software for gathering information. But, this is not how things should be. Support should be providing the information it possesses of what transpired.

Recognizes and mitigates a wide array of spam and phishing attempts
The solution provides protection, including ransomware and mail protection. It can recognize and mitigate a wide array of spam and phishing attempts. The software is adept at distinguishing legitimate emails from malicious ones, ensuring that users receive genuine communications while being protected. Additionally, it is lightweight and unobtrusive to users, providing adequate protection without impacting system performance. While advancements such as cheaper data processors may enhance its capabilities, maintaining its agility and transparency remains paramount.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The cloud console is good and the tool is effective in protection."
"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."
"Protection is the most valuable feature."
"It is very easy to configure and deploy."
"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."
"What I appreciate most about Bitdefender are its web content filtering, blocking malicious sites, and its ability to thwart brute force attacks on open ports."
"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."
"The solution is very scalable."
"The most valuable feature is the web filter application control."
"The detection capabilities for malicious activities are effective."
"The feature I find most valuable is the advance search engine."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its device control."
"It is stable, and the performance is good."
"It prevents our users from circumventing security. Everything is password protected so they can't get into it. They can't uninstall it. They can't do anything."
"The patch management module is very important."
"The interface is great."
 

Cons

"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."
"Machines with low memory and CPU may experience slow performance."
"The dashboard can be improved."
"The initial setup should be made easier."
"The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."
"The firewall capabilities could benefit from an upgrade since it lacks a high level of granularity and control."
"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."
"The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake."
"Needs a better way to scan the hardware to detect whether it's valid."
"The Linux installation is performed on the command line and they need a package installer for that operating system."
"It needs some improvements in the DNS security feature. Currently, it does not have full DNS security. It only has semi-DNS security, which can be improved. It is an important feature for us, and it would be really good if they can improve the DNS security feature. Our group has some plans to change to Cisco AMP, which has features such as DNS, Umbrella. We are trying to learn about Cisco AMP and compare it with Panda."
"We do get the odd false positive when we're trying to install the software."
"They need to offer a clear dashboard so you can see everything everywhere all at once."
"The solution should have additional endpoint protection."
"The implementation was difficult."
"t would help if it would monitor the network better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 licensing costs can vary."
"Good in terms of pricing and flexibility."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"The tool's pricing structure is good. We use an annual subscription."
"The general basic price is roughly $1.20 for a license with Bitdefender."
"The licensing is subscription-based and priced well compared to other endpoint security solutions."
"There is a license needed to use this solution and it is approximately $30 annually."
"The price of this solution depends on the number of licenses that you are purchasing."
"Our licensing fee is 1M Euro per month, so it is about 80 Euro's per user."
"The solution is priced well for what features it provides."
"Customers need to pay monthly licensing costs for Panda Security Adaptive Defense, which is not expensive."
"Panda is cloud-only and comes at a reasonable cost. It is a set price per seat."
"The licensing costs are not too high. We pay about 20 Euros a year. It's a reasonable amount to pay."
