Enhances my daily operation, protects me from online threats and doesn't slow down my system
I haven't used any of the extra add-on modules, even though they have VPN and things like that. But, I really like the warnings I get when I visit low-rated websites. This protects me because the ratings let me know those sites aren't safe, which was something I was missing in my previous antivirus solutions. I found Bitdefender Total Security easy to use. The interface is straightforward, and it runs silently in the background. Bitdefender has features like a password manager, parental controls, and a VPN – even though I don't use them. It seems like Bitdefender Total Security has everything.

Easy to deploy, good price, low overhead, and keeps our Servers and PC's free of virus'
Their management interface is a little buggy as it will hang up and crash from time to time. Although It requires more system resources than the desktop client, adding additional resources' ex. CPU and Memory don't seem to improve it. Its reporting can also be improved as the executive and patching reports are missing the ability to provide what groups of PC's are included in the reports. Also, It's great they patch some third-party software, but it is a limited list expanding this would be a huge improvement. I'm yet to see it properly handle USB Device control.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It speeds up processes, efficiently cleans up caches that would typically take a considerable amount of time to locate, and overall, it noticeably quickens the pace of my computer usage."
"It is quite stable. It handles updates and patches nicely."
"I found Bitdefender Total Security easy to use. The interface is straightforward, and it runs silently in the background."
"The tool blocks malicious downloads. Its most valuable feature is the Autopilot mode."
"The dashboard and granular control features are great."
"Bitdefender Total Security offers a wide range of valuable features that enhance its usability and effectiveness."
"It enhances our cybersecurity measures, especially beneficial for entrepreneurs."
"The software consolidates multiple features under one license. Bitdefender protects against ransomware attacks. Furthermore, it covers various devices under a single subscription."
"In general, it was pretty easy to manage."
"It has low overhead as far as machine resources are concerned. Everything runs faster with VIPRE installed versus some of the competitors. It has also been pretty easy to use. It just runs and gives us reports. It also sends us alerts when there is something that we need to look at. It does its job, and you just look at the reports. In other ways, you just forget that it is there."
 

Cons

"The stability could be improved."
"I would like to see some flexibility in the ransomware limitations."
"Bitdefender Total Security should improve its resource usage. It should also work on cloud storage."
"The technical support services need improvement."
"Bitdefender Total Security must expand its global presence, particularly in establishing legal offices in various countries, including Saudi Arabia."
"The solution could improve the way they manage it."
"It would be beneficial if Bitdefender could enhance the speed of its updates for a more immediate response to emerging threats."
"When it comes to areas for enhancement, I would suggest focusing on advanced threat detection to address evolving malware."
"We would get a lot of false positives and instead of them fixing the false positive, they would just want us to put in an exception, which I didn't care for."
"Their management interface is a little buggy. It requires a few system resources on the management interface. Its reporting can also be better. Overall, the reports are pretty good. They patch some third-party software, but if they can expand what they do for reporting and patch enterprise software, it would be handy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It falls in the middle range in terms of pricing—it's neither very cheap nor overly expensive."
"The pricing is quite reasonable. I don't find it expensive."
"The product operates on a yearly licensing basis, with options for multi-year licenses available at discounted rates."
"The product is not expensive."
"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products."
"Its price point has been phenomenal. Our previous solution from Trend Micro was triple the cost of it."
