Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 28, 2025

OpenText Core Endpoint Protection and Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security compete in the endpoint security market. Bitdefender appears to have the upper hand due to its advanced features and comprehensive protection capabilities.

Features: Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security shines with features like a comprehensive firewall, behavior analytics, and ransomware protection, along with remote administration capabilities and seamless cloud integration. OpenText Core Endpoint Protection is known for its low resource usage, powerful cloud console, and ease of deployment with auto-remediation capabilities.

Room for Improvement: OpenText Core Endpoint Protection could improve by reducing false positives, enhancing reporting, and offering more granular file scanning. Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security needs improvements in user interface, addressing connectivity issues with its controller, and support for low-RAM devices. Detailed management demands and performance impacts are also areas for enhancement.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Both solutions offer hybrid cloud and on-premises deployment options. OpenText excels in cloud deployment across various environments, while Bitdefender supports extensive public cloud integration. OpenText’s customer service is inconsistent, with mixed user experiences. Bitdefender tends to receive positive feedback, though response times and support for complex queries can be improved.

Pricing and ROI: OpenText Core Endpoint Protection provides cost-effective solutions with competitive endpoint pricing, appealing to businesses of different sizes. Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security offers a modular pricing structure tailored to specific security needs. Although Bitdefender's pricing can vary, its comprehensive features potentially enhance ROI, warranting a careful cost-benefit analysis for additional modules.

Delivers lightweight protection while facing challenges with technical aspects

I have been working with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security for quite a long time, but recently, I do not appreciate their changes, especially on the technical side. They moved some portions to remote GUI-based interfaces. The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult. There is a power user function where you can stop it temporarily for installing applications. Previously, we had the option to click on the power user button and enter the password to allow stopping that particular function. Now, we have to do it via CLI, which even technical personnel struggle to understand. Currently, everything is working fine except for the technical aspects we can control. If they can revert to the old system, that would be much better. When we raise this issue with Bitdefender, they cite security reasons for the change. However, while Cisco is moving away from CLI to GUI, Bitdefender is moving backward. Normal users cannot handle these CLI operations effectively.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We use patch management to keep our software up-to-date, significantly mitigating our risk of vulnerabilities. We're confident that Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security will either already know about new threats and have updated our machines, or they'll advise us quickly on mitigating them until an update is available."

"The product is a good standard security tool."

"It takes lesser energy from the system than the rest. So, we tried it for five years, and it works quite well. So we have continued with it. And the pricing is competitive as well."

"I find Bitdefender to be very light. When we were using the other versions, users would complain that they would make the computers slow. But since we have deployed Bitdefender, we haven't had that."

"The solution is very scalable."

"Protection is the most valuable feature."

"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."

"The most valuable features of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security are remote administration and deployment, comprehensive firewall protection, malware protection, and antivirus."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pros

"The solution is very simple and straightforward to use."

"Auto-Remediation"

"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."

"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."

"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."

"The initial setup is not complex at all. It's very straightforward."

"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."

"I like that Webroot is very lightweight. It didn't bog down the machine, and more importantly, it had heuristics artificial intelligence to some degree. It wasn't like full-blown artificial intelligence, but something where you have one endpoint recognizing issues because it maintains a cloud database. If one client recognizes a threat, it would add it to the database, and almost immediately, every agent in the world would also know about that threat. That was very appealing to us. However, now it's becoming commonplace, whereas ventures like Symantec and McAfee were based more on the traditional model of definition and updates, and we were always falling behind. Webroot also has pretty good technical support."

Cons

"The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult."

"The price has increased marginally recently and I would prefer if they didn't raise rates."

"I like the Application Control feature, but it's a bit tricky. Managing it can be a bit cumbersome sometimes."

"They've got all this training that's available, but it involves stuff that doesn't really encompass the solution as a whole."

"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."

"Overall, Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security is quite good. It always has new features which customers can use for free, so I can't say that something is missing in the solution, though one area for improvement is that the cloud version of Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security still can't connect to a central SIEM. The on-premises version has that capability, but the cloud version doesn't."

"I think it would be helpful if I could get a live console directly on the machine. Additionally, if I could run scripts on the machines to respond to any incidents, that would be a great feature."

"The connection with the controller needs improvement. Some connections are currently unstable."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security cons

"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."

"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."

"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."

"Technical support is not the best. It's hard to get a hold of them if we need help. It's something that definitely needs improvement."

"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."

"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."

"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."

"Reporting system could be improved."

More OpenText Core Endpoint Protection cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay for an annual license which is affordable."

"Good in terms of pricing and flexibility."

"The license is yearly."

"The pricing is reasonable when I compare it to other security solutions, particularly Kaspersky, it stands out. It offers an excellent solution at a more favorable price point."

"The general basic price is roughly $1.20 for a license with Bitdefender."

"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 tool is not expensive and pricing is competitive."

"We purchase the solution for three or five-year intervals. We paid approximately $150 for 10 to 15 users."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security pricing and cost advice

"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."

"The solution is very cost-effective."

"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."

"The pricing is high."

"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."

"Work on a price tier plan."

"I think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."

"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
