Featured Reviews

Robin Cook - PeerSpot reviewer
Exceptional threat detection and effortless installation impress users
The solution has best-in-breed technology and scores very highly on efficacy rates. The threat detection rates are exceptionally good, better than most of the competition. The solution is highly respected in the industry. The product is very scalable, and the installation is reported to be extremely easy, even for those without great technical capabilities.
FarkhundAbbas - PeerSpot reviewer
The tool provides excellent sandboxing and email security features, but the backup and recovery features are not good
If my primary solution is down, no backup solution is available to restore it. It is one of the biggest weaknesses of the platform. If I need to update the solution, there is no option to pick the events and the logs from it and deploy it in another solution. The backup and recovery features of the product are not good. I need backup. If the tool is down for some time, I cannot get the logs at that particular time.

"The solution has best-in-breed technology and scores very highly on efficacy rates."
"The product is easy to use."
"I find Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus to be a pretty good solution for the mid-level market, specifically for organizations with up to two hundred fifty users. I like that it is an averagely priced solution. It also has a straightforward installation that can be completed within three to five minutes. Its technical support is also good enough."
"The best thing about Bitdefender is that it has got top-notch features and it is not tied to specific countries like some other antivirus tools."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is highly stable."
"The email security feature is really good."
"The most valuable use is detailing metadata collection from the endpoint and network."

"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is stable and runs all the time."
"I feel the anti-ransomware update is one of the tool's valuable features."
 

Cons

"I would like automatic issue fixing for users without needing to physically open the PC. I'd prefer updates and fixes from the cloud to avoid headaches and save time."
"The solution seems to be pretty amateur for an EDR solution, and it should be more in sync in terms of features, with solutions such as FireEye and SentinelOne."
"Some customers would like additional features that aren't available through the current GravityZone platform. Some feedback has been about the deletion of other software not going smoothly during the installation of Bitdefender, particularly the removal of previous software like Sophos."

"The backup and recovery features of the product are not good."
"I think the tool is still not really good enough for integration compared to other products."
"The solution lacks cloud integrations."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is not a good product. We had problems with endpoints and the solution did not detect it. We didn't get any alerts about the attack."
"In some of the places I have come across, even though they use Kaspersky, the ransomware enters their system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It's a very good price for MSP. It's cheaper than Symantec."
