WM
Provides good protection and works well when configured correctly
It works well as long as you set it right. You have to be careful with Bitdefender. It's different when you use it on laptops and desktops, but on servers, it's not the same. You need to make proper settings on it for what you ought to exclude. The problems it was causing were mainly because they didn't set it up properly. When you start putting it on things, you have to make sure you don't include certain things and that you make proper rules and settings to say go scan this or that. When you're installing anything like this on desktops, laptops, servers, or anything else, you want to make sure that you have done the research first and that you know what to include or exclude. Overall, I'd rate it an eight out of ten.
