Automated protection has reduced our management time and keeps all client environments consistently secure
Reporting in Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could be improved. It has some reporting in it, but it's a little cumbersome to work with, so the reporting that is there could be improved. The analytics dashboards of Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) are quite useful, and they are nice in that we can see an overview very quickly and drill down into specific issues or specific clients. The dashboards are quite good, though it would be nice if we had the same with automated reports. It would be much more useful for us to have that via email or having a report. The only downside that we find is that the product is a little bit slow.

Remote Access Security Reinforced with Real-Time Device Protection
Dashboard customization is needed for improvements. While the centralized management is strong, the dashboard could offer more flexibility. It would be helpful to tailor views for different roles, such as IT or security support. Regarding needed improvements, custom report building could be enhanced. Current reports are informative, and a drag-and-drop builder would allow teams to create tailored views for compliance, executive summaries, or operational metrics. For further improvements, enhancing threat simulation and testing would be valuable. Building a threat simulation tool and adding native capabilities to simulate phishing, malware, or ransomware scenarios will help teams validate protection and train users without relying on third-party tools.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has best-in-breed technology and scores very highly on efficacy rates."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is highly stable."
"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."
"The threat detection rates are exceptionally good, better than most of the competition."
"The best features in the product, as a reseller, are the integrated SOC; integration with a SOC is one of the advantages."
"The quarantine computer functionality is very good for me."
"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 product is easy to use."
"When we provision new laptops for remote employees, Check Point Harmony Endpoint automatically applies our security configurations the moment the device connects to the network, which includes anti-ransomware protections, firewall rules, and web filtering."
"The standout features are primarily EDR and MDR."
"Check Point Endpoint Security really helped the business stop various malware attacks throughout the time we used it, including a ransomware attack, which was stopped in minutes."
"Its ability to rollback anti-ransomware once an attack has started is the most valuable feature."
"We find the zero-day protection to be an extremely valuable feature of this solution."
"It offers a centralized administration which allows us to be much more productive."
"It has improved the detection of malware."
"A unique feature with this product is that it will detect if the user is entering their password on a website, and then block it."
 

Cons

"Detection and response is a disadvantage that could be improved."
"Some customers would like additional features that aren't available through the current GravityZone platform. Some feedback has been about the deletion of other software not going smoothly during the installation of Bitdefender, particularly the removal of previous software like Sophos."
"The solution must improve its management features."
"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."
"Reporting in Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could be improved."
"I would like automatic issue fixing for users without needing to physically open the PC. I'd prefer updates and fixes from the cloud to avoid headaches and save time."
"Adding a feature like Data Loss Prevention would be beneficial."
"Some customers would like additional features that aren't available through the current GravityZone platform."
"The solution needs more alerts to warn of attacks."
"One of the most frequent problems that Check Point Antivirus presents is that some antivirus updates fail continuously."
"They could be focused on the analysis of USB devices."
"As of now, there are not any lack of features."
"They can improve the customization features to the greatest extent possible and also help bring automation into system security in the most unified manner possible."
"Check Point should improve on their patch management by releasing patches more frequently, such as on a weekly basis, to stay ahead of potential vulnerabilities."
"The management in Check Point Harmony Endpoint could be improved."
"As of now, product-wise, we haven't found any major concern that needs to improve, although it does not support full MDM and this is something that should be there."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is pretty average, meaning it's not cheaper, but it's pretty good. It has average pricing."
"We have purchased licenses for the use of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus. The price of the solution is reasonable but could be better."
"Initial monies replacing all AVs with a single product is about £10k."
"We pay on an annual basis. There are no additional fees, they mostly tell us what we have to pay. We have budgeted for it."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"Check Point Harmony Endpoint's pricing is more competitive than any other vendor."
"Check Point Antivirus is an expensive solution, especially for clients that don't have as many endpoints. Check Point Antivirus has a free trial for one month, and within the trial period, there's no limit to the number of endpoints it can support, but when the trial expires, you'll have to buy the license, which covers one year. You can't buy a license for the solution without being a Check Point partner first."
"We pay roughly 80,000 Swedish krona per year. When it comes to the firewall, it's roughly 150,000 Swedish krona yearly. There's also maintenance, of course, which is roughly 10,000 krona per month."
"The cost is huge compared to other products that are available on market."
"The product is averagely priced. The product price is neither very high nor too low. The tool is not really expensive."
