Kamel Ahmed - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to use, helps against advanced threats, and enhances the security posture
We used Kaspersky for four years. I like Kaspersky more than Bitdefender GravityZone. Kaspersky helps manage everything on the client computers. It is easier to find files easily using Kaspersky. It is easier to manage things with Kaspersky. However, Bitdefender GravityZone is easier to use. The GUI is more simple. Kaspersky‘s GUI is more difficult, so we switched to Bitdefender GravityZone.
Kiarash Heydari - PeerSpot reviewer
Solid security and performance; overall a useful tool
My opinion is that behavior detection could work better. This feature gets a high rate of false positives. This service is painful for network administrators. I would like for this solution to better integrate with other solutions, especially with our network solution. I would also like for the support response time to be better.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"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."
"It never fails. Bitdefender always catches all of the viruses that have been detected on customer sites."
"The product is easy to use."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is highly stable."
"EDR's most valuable feature is its basic protection from malware and viruses."
"This is a feature-rich product."
"The most valuable feature is endpoint protection."
"The most valuable feature of Kaspersky EDR is its simplicity. The console is easy to use and not very complex."
"Encryption is the most valuable feature. It creates an encryption tunnel from your location to the delivery address."
"We have a central console and from there you can monitor all workstations via an agent."
"This solution is quite responsive and the tech support engineers are kind and good."
"The content filtering options are good."
 

Cons

"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."
"The solution must improve its management features."
"Adding a feature like Data Loss Prevention would be beneficial."
"The mobile version needs improvement."
"It is not easy to follow the kill chain of a potential infection or malware."
"If a customer wants to use Kaspersky on-prem, they'll need to spend a lot on the hardware. Their server must be strong because EDR is a heavy product. You need excellent hardware to run it. It might make sense to deploy the solution in the cloud. If they add features, it will only make the product heavier and increase the hardware costs."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response could improve some issues and add new security files."
"The main problem with Endpoint is that Kaspersky is a Russian company, and my clients prefer not to use it."
"If it covered more products, it would improve the XDR."
"Kaspersky needs to strengthen its standing in the market."
"There are some cases that take three days to deal with. It's too long."
"The solution does not offer much support to its users in Spanish, so I would like to see them offer more support in Spanish."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have purchased licenses for the use of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus. The price of the solution is reasonable but could be better."
"It's a very good price for MSP. It's cheaper than Symantec."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is pretty average, meaning it's not cheaper, but it's pretty good. It has average pricing."
"We were on a three-year license to use Kaspersky Endpoint Detection and Response. The price could be better."
"The solution is expensive in comparison to CheckPoint and Fortinet."
"EDR is priced on the cheaper side. Licensing for EDR is available on a yearly basis for around 80 SAR a year."
"The solution's cost is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The solution isn't the cheapest considering what you get. I would rate the pricing as seven out of ten."
"The price of the solution could be reduced."
"Kaspersky is licensed on a yearly basis."
