Microsoft BitLocker Reviews

We use the solution for our endpoint. There were recovery issues because of concrete tools, operations, and recovery tokens. There was a recovery case during the system crash. You can recover the system and find out the lost data.

Microsoft BitLocker is very easy to manage and is stable. We experience very few crashes with different endpoints. We operate in a large institution and require a solution that seamlessly works across diverse systems.

Some non-enterprise security solutions offer more comprehensive tracking capabilities for stolen devices beyond device protection. They enable location tracking of the device once it connects to the internet. Additionally, they provide enhanced stability, addressing instances where encryption fails to complete and rollback attempts become problematic.

I have been using Microsoft BitLocker for a year.

The product is stable.

The solution is scalable. There are some devices where the system crashes during encryption. 

I rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten.

The initial setup is straightforward.

We have local partners and OEMs providing support for BitLocker deployment. The technical expert handles the deployments internally.

Overall, I rate the solution a six out of ten.

We put BitLocker on all our consultants' laptops to protect their data in case they lose their machines.

I like the fact that you can get a BitLocker encryption key out of OneDrive.

BitLocker should be available on standard Windows. We need to spend money on a Pro license to get BitLocker because it's essential to protect our customers' data. We don't want that to fall into the wrong hands.

I have used BitLocker for five years.

BitLocker is stable.

We haven't rolled it out on a large scale. We're enabling it one computer at a time. 

BitLocker is pre-installed on Windows Pro, so you only need to switch it on. It takes a while to run, but you can switch it on and go do something else. It takes a minute or so to find it in the settings and enable it. 

BitLocker is included in the Windows Pro license. The Pro version of Windows costs about 100 pounds more than the Home Edition, so you need to decide if it's worth upgrading to Pro. That extra cost might be a tough pill for some companies to swallow, but it's necessary if you don't want to worry about your data if an employee loses their laptop. 

I rate Microsoft BitLocker 10 out of 10. It's a simple tool that does what it says. I recommend using it if you have access. 

We use the solution to secure endpoints.

Microsoft BitLocker's most valuable feature is endpoint encryption, and it's quite easy to manage. Microsoft BitLocker's data protection is the most useful for mobile endpoints like laptops.

The management of the product could be made a little easier.

I have been using Microsoft BitLocker for 5-6 years.

I rate the solution ten out of ten for stability.

Around 50 users are using the solution in our organization.

I rate the solution’s scalability ten out of ten.

We didn't pay for additional licenses since the solution is built into Windows.

Before choosing Microsoft BitLocker, we evaluated Trend Micro.

I use the latest version of Microsoft BitLocker. We didn't have any specific incidents where we needed to use the solution's recovery process. However, if there's a problem unlocking devices, it's pretty simple to manage.

The solution is not complicated to manage. Microsoft BitLocker is transparent to end users, and they are unaware of its existence. It doesn't impact their performance in a measurable way, and we don't have any problems with it.

Microsoft BitLocker is a very useful tool for managing endpoints, especially mobile ones, and ensuring that data is not leaked. The solution's drives are integrated into the mobile workstation. We require one person as a backup to maintain the solution, which is not time-consuming. It just takes a few hours every month. I would recommend the solution to other users.

Overall, I rate Microsoft BitLocker ten out of ten.

We use Microsoft BitLocker for hard drive encryption.

The product helps us to encrypt local devices. It allows us to protect devices against theft and unauthorized access.

Microsoft BitLocker's most valuable features are stability and simplicity in terms of usage.

They could improve cloud integration regarding attribute and encryption key management.

We have been using Microsoft BitLocker for five years. At present, we use its latest on-premises version.

I rate the product’s stability a ten out of ten.

We have Microsoft BitLocker installed on 5000 devices in our organization.

We have an in-house technical support team.

We attempted to use some other products before. But only Microsoft BitLocker proved suitable for our business requirements.

We deploy the product in the client’s environment using group policy configuration. It takes a week to complete the process.

We already use Microsoft products, and Microsoft BitLocker is an add-on product that is free of cost for us.

I rate Microsoft BitLocker a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for laptops assigned to sales in case it’s lost or stolen.

The solution is included in Windows 11.

The product must improve the centralization of keys. BitLocker is not perfect. Sometimes, we have problems when Windows tries to start. It shows that the key is not available.

I am using the solution currently.

It is a stable solution.

We check the Microsoft forum to resolve issues.

The initial setup is not complex.

We can activate the product at no cost. We're just taking advantage of what is included in Windows.

We have individual files when IT support prepares the computers. We have the information to replace an SSD or increase the size. We need to remove BitLocker, change the drive, put it back, and encrypt it again with BitLocker. We can check the way the encryption is used because it is centralized. It is good to test the features and centralize the encryption. Overall, I rate the tool an eight or nine out of ten.

Microsoft BitLocker can be used to ensure that stolen PCs or laptops do not lose their data.

We recently found some stability issues with Microsoft BitLocker. We found that quite a few users on the web are complaining about the solution's stability, especially after the Microsoft update. One user's laptop did not boot because of such an issue.

I have been using Microsoft BitLocker for about eight to ten years.

I rate Microsoft BitLocker a nine out of ten for stability.

Microsoft BitLocker's initial setup is extremely simple.

Microsoft BitLocker's pricing is included in the Microsoft license, and you don't have to pay an additional fee for it.

Microsoft BitLocker is directly deployed on the end user devices. Microsoft BitLocker is an encryption solution that ciphers the disk of the local machine. If you carry around your devices and somebody steals them, they cannot read the data off it even if they attach it to another device.

Microsoft BitLocker is directly deployed on the end user devices. Microsoft BitLocker is an encryption solution that ciphers the disk of the local machine. If you carry around your devices and somebody steals them, they cannot read the data off it even if they attach it to another device.

Using Microsoft BitLocker is very easy. After ciphering the data, it unlocks itself if you have a modern PC attached to the correct PC. However, you must have your old company username and password to create an account and see the data. You cannot see the data if you don't have the password. Nothing much can be done regarding the software's usability or evolution.

Microsoft BitLocker should not be considered as an end-user software. It's a system software that protects your hard disk.

Microsoft BitLocker is not hard to use.

Overall, I rate Microsoft BitLocker a nine out of ten.

We use the solution for data encryption. 

The tool has improved the startup of our notebooks and end-user devices. 

I would like to see improvement in the solution's central management of passwords. Currently, we install it separately. 

I have been working with the solution for more than one year. 

I would rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten. 

I would rate the solution's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has more than 3000 users for the tool. 

The tool's setup is quite difficult I would rate the tool's setup around three to four out of ten. We had to deploy the solution on thousands of machines. Hence, we implemented it in phases. 

The solution is priced low. I would rate the product's pricing one out of ten. 

I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. The solution is a Microsoft product and Microsoft should be able to help rectify any issues in the future. It has a similar integration as that of Microsoft. 

Our primary use case for this solution is encryption. The solution is deployed on-premises.

The ease of administering and integrating the solution is great.

The product could be improved by simplifying the implementation process and the integration between Active Directory and BitLocker could be better.

We have been using this solution for two years and are currently using the latest version.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable. Currently, we have approximately 800 users using this solution, and six people are required for maintenance.

We don't have experience with customer service and support.

The initial setup is easy and takes approximately one to two days. A day for implementation and a second day for compliance.

The solution was implemented in-house.

We use the System Center Configuration Manager, which is free. So we don't need a license for BitLocker.

I rate this solution an eight out of ten. The solution is good but can be improved by simplifying the implementation process. I recommend it to people who may not be able to afford high license costs.
