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.
Syed Azimuddin - PeerSpot reviewer
Realtime intelligent end-to-end detection and protection from malware in a highly versatile product
From a technical perspective, I think ServerProtect is one of the best security products on the market. It is a mature product that already has most features that any product of this type has. What can be improved is that the cost is very high. So I feel that the cost should be reduced, even if it is justified. One thing that I would like to see as an additional feature is just a custom sandbox within the solution itself. So instead of having to go and use an additional sandbox for testing, you could have a custom sandbox integrated directly into the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is a good standard security tool."
"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."
"We find the protection the solution provides valuable."
"In terms of threat detection, I would give it a ten out of ten since Bitdefender manages to catch threats that other products miss."
"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."
"The most valuable feature is the IDS."
"The domain integrator functionality is particularly noteworthy, allowing me to leverage my existing network infrastructure."
"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."
"Technical support was perfect."
"ServerProtect's best feature is virtual patching, which takes care of patching even if your servers aren't updated with the latest threat definitions."
"It can be managed from the cloud."
"The solution allows centralized administration"
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and antivirus capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)."
"Performance is very good."
"I use this solution for data blocking, software protection, and frame protection."
 

Cons

"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."
"The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."
"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."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"Sometimes the response from Technical Support takes more time than usual because level three support is not in Brazil."
"The price of the bandwidth here is very expensive compared to European countries."
"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."
"The cost is very high and it should be lower to be more competitive."
"The endpoint protection could always be stronger."
"Integration with different platforms could be an area for improvement in Trend Micro ServerProtect, e.g. it needs more integration. It could also be more secure and more stable. In the next release, this solution should also include more EDR visibility."
"Notifications are not very good with Trend Micro."
"Lacking analytics and a machine learning technique."
"Trend Micro is a little bit complicated when it comes to setting up special policies."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
"I would like to see SMS notifications sent as alerts, in case we do not have access to our email."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay for an annual license which is affordable."
"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."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"The tool's pricing structure is good. We use an annual subscription."
"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"The licensing costs can vary."
"The product's pricing is okay and it is yearly."
"The product is available at a reasonable price"
"This product has an annual subscription, but also offers MSP options."
"Pricing is based on the components you choose from the suite to run in your installation. Costs vary by the number of features and the number of servers."
"Pricewise, this product is okay."
"In terms of price, the solution is in the middle; it's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. I rate it three out of five for cost."
