Featured Reviews

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.

The ease of installation and licensing are also significant advantages
We use the application filtering, content filtering, and intrusion prevention system (IPS) features. These features are crucial for our network security. The ease of installation and licensing are also significant advantages, as it allows us to have one license for all products, which simplifies upgrading and maintenance. Additionally, the ease of deployment is critical for us.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Virus scan and the ability to remotely install are valuable features. Being able to manage everything in one place and set different policies and rules for different computer types are very useful features. It also has ransomware protection. It is very simple to use, and it is very effective."
"The most valuable features of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security are remote administration and deployment, comprehensive firewall protection, malware protection, and antivirus."
"What I appreciate most about Bitdefender are its web content filtering, blocking malicious sites, and its ability to thwart brute force attacks on open ports."
"When it comes to the web, according to our customers, this product stands out due to its superior performance compared to others."
"The tool has a firewall module to control traffic. It also has a feature to map incidents and provide information about attackers and the environment."
"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."
"It is perfectly stable. We haven't received any complaints from customers regarding stability or performance. It's been smooth sailing so far."
"It is very easy to configure and deploy."
"It is deployed on the customer site, and we manage the firewalls on this side."
"It is easy for me to go in and update settings, make changes, or add/remove rules or security."
"The valuable features are threat prevention to work like Jira Trust Network Access."
"One of Juniper vSRX's most valuable features is its integration with safety applications. It keeps the software secure from developers without relying on third-party solutions."
"I like the role-based functions, but the device can now perform most of the tasks. We have open access to CLI. You can access it directly. Many vendors have also opened their CLI to Linux, making troubleshooting easier."
"The solution has good features."
"We like the solution’s protocol and its dashboard system."
"The product's scalability is good, and my company has 150 users."
 

Cons

"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."
"The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult."
"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 initial setup should be made easier."
"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."
"The dashboard can be improved."
"The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved."
"Potential areas for improvement could be more accessible and immediate support for critical situations, especially considering the regulatory challenges in healthcare."
"he stability could be improved."
"I've talked to people that say Juniper now, as a device, can be a solution for a data center, but in the past, I have not seen this as being possible."
"We have some weird errors and some weird behavior on the solution occasionally. The device gets buggy without anyone touching it. It would work and then suddenly stop. Sometimes you need to just move the cards out and restart it again, and it will work. The solution itself, the hardware and the software, there must be some bugs that need to be dealt with."
"VPN access is an area that needs improvement."
"It should also support modern data technologies like zero-day protection and zero-trust network access."
"The GUI needs to be faster."
"The biggest downside of Juniper vSRX is its pricing, which may be too high for smaller organizations. While it's a decent solution, the cost may limit its accessibility to smaller customers."
"The tool's basic license does not cover everything. It needs to improve visibility and availability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license is yearly."
"The tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."
"There are many licensing options available, we have been on monthly agreements and other volume contract agreements."
"Its price has gone up since our last renewal. My renewal fee has gone from $517.99 in 2018 for 3 years to $739.99 when it renews this year in July. I love the product, but a price increase of over 40% is a bit exorbitant."
"The solution is reasonable and is nominally priced in accordance with the features that offer to the market."
"The general basic price is roughly $1.20 for a license with Bitdefender."
"It has very flexible licensing costs, and it's modular-based."
"We pay for an annual license which is affordable."
"The ongoing licensing cost seems to be pretty standard. There are no additional costs."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"It is not that costly."
"We like pricing through the AWS Marketplace."
"After some research, I think that the cost of Juniper is more than Check Point, Palo Alto, and Fortinet."
"The solution is inexpensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"The solution could have been cheaper."
