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.

Good user behavioral analysis and helpful patching but needs better support services
Some of our products have a first and second line owned by us. We are giving support services to the customers instead of the vendor. Some other products are supported directly by the technology vendor, however. Technical support from the vendor is very bad. Usually, when the customer submits a ticket, they put a severity level on the case. Whenever the case is very important, and there is a real malfunction in the product on the customer side, and there is something down that needs someone to have a look immediately, it takes more time than it should to even engage with the customer. When someone has to contact the customer and have a remote session within the customer environment, they sometimes lack in terms of communication with the customer. The support centers are located in the East and not all have an acceptable level of English in order to communicate directly with the customer.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."
"Security for malware and threats is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is very scalable."
"We find the protection the solution provides valuable."
"The cloud console is good and the tool is effective in protection."
"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."
"When it comes to the web, according to our customers, this product stands out due to its superior performance compared to others."
"The features I found most valuable in Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security include anti-malware, spyware detection, firewall, network detection, and user behavior analytics. The solution also gives you a heads-up about operating system misconfiguration."
"What I like best is the integrated end-to-end security that works with the security information and events manager."
"The solution provides dashboard control, so we can centrally monitor the entire status of our organization."
"The endpoint protection and disk encryption features are the most valuable."
"I have found many of the features to be useful."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"It provides a lot of information and great visibility, with really great options for managing the environment."
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
"The reporting capabilities are a valuable feature. In enables more visibility on our network."
 

Cons

"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."
"The tool needs to improve patch and vulnerability management."
"The live monitoring service from Bitdefender's center is expensive and has room for improvement."
"The solution's stability could be better."
"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."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"The solution must be more user-friendly."
"While we are pleased with the endpoint solution, there should also be a separate one for the firewall."
"The product could do more to keep administration alerted to detected threats on endpoints."
"The initial setup is complex. It is a very complex product. You must have experience with it."
"The vendor should simplify the way they bundle the products because it's very hard to explain to customers what products contain which features."
"It would be nice if the solution was a bit more stable."
"The resolution time should be faster."
"On the next release, they should build an easier way to see a repair option within the McAfee icon on your system tray. If there was an issue, you should be able to contact the user or just right-click on "repair". That would be a very good feature to add. That could be a place of improvement, just adding that button, or customizing it."
"We’re facing remote installation issues sometimes:"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"It has very flexible licensing costs, and it's modular-based."
"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."
"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."
"The licensing costs can vary."
"We purchase the solution for three or five-year intervals. We paid approximately $150 for 10 to 15 users."
"When comparing the solution to others it is a bit expensive. We are on a monthly license."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"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."
"We pay for the license on an annual basis."
"It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness."
"I rate Trellix Endpoint Security a nine out of ten for pricing."
"The price of McAfee is pretty similar to Symantec, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"Compared to Bitdefender, Trellix Endpoint Security is more expensive, but considering it comes with DLP, the solution's price is fine."
