Centralized control effectively manages devices while updates require powered-on systems
I use Bitdefender GravityZone EDR for the grooming industry. It is primarily utilized for the office environment The features I find most effective for threat detection include centralized control policy distribution and the control of independent devices, such as printers, laptops, and desktops…

Great features, good patch management, and useful ransomware protection
I also have experience with Sophos and Kaspersky. The main difference is that some features are not available in Kaspersky. And, for example, the patch management part is not included in Sophos. On the Kaspersky side, they have a patch management part. However, we need to purchase an additional option to enable that feature. With Comodo Protection, patch management is already included with the product, and we don't need to buy it separately. Also, the main advantage is performance. When we implemented Sophos on the endpoint, the CPU utilization went higher. When we installed Comodo, the memory of the CPU utilization is very low. We can implement Comodo from XP and SP3 to the latest operating system. However, with Kaspersky or Sophos, they are not supported for that or Windows 10. Comodo is supporting Windows XP SP3 and all our operating systems. That said, the Sophos Intercept X Advanced option has a web filtering part, or integration. Comodo has only basic filtering, and web filtering is there. That means we can do the URL web addresses and block and allow the connection and that's it with Comodo. Comodo does have a separate product for that, Comodo Secure Internet, where we can configure and filter all the web filtering parts. That would be an extra solution at an extra cost.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One strong point is that it doesn't have many background services running on the Windows system or server operating system. This minimizes impact because it's a lighter version."
"It is stable."
"It efficiently investigates security incidents."
"I like GravityZone's short implementation time. It takes only a day, at most."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR needs to be more stable."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR's installation is straightforward."
"The nice thing about Bitdefender is that it has modules and layers that you can add as the requirement becomes more sophisticated and dangerous or threatening."
"It's hard to pick just one valuable feature as almost all of the main features are very useful. However, the ability to manage it centrally and have detailed control over settings, exceptions and other configurations is extremely beneficial."
"It's user-friendly, compatible, and accessible."
"The tool is an open-source EDR with antivirus features. It also has remote support and patch management."
"It's a very easy-to-use product."
"The big advantage is that it has a sandbox if something bad comes into it."
"It's stable and reliable."
"If you open up an application or a web browser, it puts a container in a sandbox area. So if there's some malicious code, it'll stick there. It also has way better protection for ransomware because it uses heuristics that are pretty effective. We've done a lot of tests with live malware, and it works really well."
"It is a very stable solution, making it an excellent product."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection allows our organization's clients to be managed and inventoried remotely."
 

Cons

"For many, the problems come mostly when they start tweaking or short-cutting - particularly for patch management."
"Areas for improvement would be performance and pricing."
"The cryptosystem could be improved a bit."
"Other solutions are cheaper than GravityZone."
"In the future, maybe this will need to morph into AI threat intelligence."
"There's room for improvement in terms of protection. That's my primary concern."
"The outreach from support was a bit bad according to their plan, but we've got two people here that manage and support GravityZone and interact with them and they manage it very well."
"The installation is not straightforward and should be easier to do."
"The quality of the analysis and the product dashboard is a bit low compared to other providers."
"The downside of the product stems from the fact that it is still an unknown product in the market. Comodo needs to invest more in advertisements and promotions."
"The solution's online documentation needs to be fine-tuned. It is not up to which solution currently has. There is some inconsistency in the knowledge present. I would like to see MDM in the solution's future releases."
"Their support is not very good because they are very late to reply."
"The locking and backup capabilities of the solution can be improved."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection could improve by extending its auto containment feature to Mac and Linux systems since it currently only supports Windows."
"There could be MDRM features added to the product."
"They need to just modernize the infrastructure with something that is next-generation. We have recently moved to SentinelOne. It had been doing good for us for a while, but we needed something modern with new technology."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We take the subscription. Only we're taking that GravityZone and protection of the environment and the system. We didn't subscribe to the detection response."
"I have very good pricing for the solution, which is one of the reasons why I am not switching to other products. I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is less expensive than other solutions, such as CrowdStrike. We had a really good deal because it was their year-end and they were trying to do a lot of sales that week. We bought a three-year contract from them and the cost was approximately $17 per endpoint, per year. It is was a very good price. I have spoken to other people who have purchased CrowdStrike at approximately $60 per endpoint, per year. I have no complaints about the price of this solution."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"There is a fully functional trial that we used and we didn't have any issues."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cost-effective and has the best pricing."
"The solution is affordable."
"Price-wise, Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is a bit expensive in the Philippines."
"The product is very reasonably priced."
"The product is pricey."
"It was about 35 or 40 bucks per year for the endpoint."
"I rate the pricing a five on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive. The product can be considered fairly cheap."
"Comodo Advanced Endpoint Protection is inexpensive."
"Generally, the cost is between $16 and $19 per endpoint."
"I rate Comodo’s pricing a four out of ten."
"It's a cost-effective solution"
