Rias Majeed - PeerSpot reviewer
Admin gets the information about which computer has been infected and good to use for servers and endpoints
The important factor is that after implementing Bitdefender, we haven't found any attacks. It has a vaccine for the RDP protocol, which is specific to this. We do some customization, but it does not lack any protection. Compared to older versions, we have not found any degradation in performance in the newer versions from the last three to five years, whether for graphical or normal users. They're not complaining that we are facing problems like memory issues. Bitdefender is also customizable and granular, but once you install it, it keeps running. The admin gets the information about which computer has been infected and can take action accordingly. On a regular basis, Bitdefender's AI capability is okay. But you cannot leave some decisions to AI. You must have control. You have to look at what you're filtering, as it can be a false positive. But on a regular basis, AI can be helpful.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security ( /categories/endpoint-protection-platform-epp ) can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems. Another issue is with end-users outside the network, where the agent handler sometimes fails to deploy the product properly. Improvements are needed in forensic analytics to detect specific vulnerabilities. It would also help if detection specifics were identified more quickly and the problem-solving process accelerated, especially to meet larger clients' expectations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security has a lot of telemetry that allows me to really see what's going on with the device."
"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."
"It takes lesser energy from the system than the rest. So, we tried it for five years, and it works quite well. So we have continued with it. And the pricing is competitive as well."
"It is perfectly stable. We haven't received any complaints from customers regarding stability or performance. It's been smooth sailing so far."
"Security for malware and threats is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very scalable."
"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."
"I like its unified interface, which also helps you scan Outlook email, for example. Multiple products can be standardized across endpoints or the EDR solution, and the integrations with SIEMs."
"The solution is reliable."
"I have not faced any problems with scalability so far, but we are starting an upgrade or overhaul."
"It provides a robust defense against cybersecurity threats while offering user-friendly features like notifications and approval prompts."
"The product’s stability and security features enhance user protection and organizational security."
"The endpoint security, antivirus and firewall are the most valuable features of Trellix Endpoint Security."
"I like trap prevention DNS and threat prevention."
"It has been protecting us for many years, and we hope it will continue to do so for many years to come."
"The solution is broken down into different components from the portals. Web filtering, which is an added feature has been great for us."
 

Cons

"The risk management tool does not have reporting, which I feel to be a huge mistake."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"Potential areas for improvement could be more accessible and immediate support for critical situations, especially considering the regulatory challenges in healthcare."
"They've got all this training that's available, but it involves stuff that doesn't really encompass the solution as a whole."
"The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."
"I think it would be helpful if I could get a live console directly on the machine. Additionally, if I could run scripts on the machines to respond to any incidents, that would be a great feature."
"It could be simplified a little bit for firewall rules and blocking specific IP addresses. It would be nice to have an option to upload a CSV or XLSX file of IP addresses to be blacklisted or to be able to specify a range as attempted logins from botnets and people attempting to access network accounts is an increasing issue across the board."
"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."
"The solution could provide open XDR in addition to EDR."
"I would like to see more integration with third-party products."
"The initial setup isn't so easy. You need to know what you are doing."
"Trellix Endpoint Security needs some improvement in the dashboards. Artificial intelligence also requires improvement to further enhance the product."
"The software download features could stand improvement."
"While we are pleased with the endpoint solution, there should also be a separate one for the firewall."
"The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format."
"Users can just install software into their computers. We need some sort of application control system that, if there are any pieces of software that are not whitelisted, then the solution could flag it or maybe alert the administers. That would be very helpful."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."
"The price is fair."
"In terms of the licensing costs associated with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security, the agreement was made nearly three years ago, but from what I recall, the figure was around €6,000 to €7,000 for three years, including support for two hundred endpoints."
"The tool's pricing structure is good. We use an annual subscription."
"You don't have to pay extra after buying the product."
"Good in terms of pricing and flexibility."
"It has very flexible licensing costs, and it's modular-based."
"No comment."
"I think Trellix is more on the higher side of the market, just on a general scale, but I also think it depends on what particular package you choose."
"It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness."
"The price of this product is good."
"When comparing the solution to others it is a bit expensive. We are on a monthly license."
"It is not that expensive. There is no additional cost. We got the entire bundle together."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is neither a cheap nor an expensive solution."
"The pricing is great and licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
