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…
Kevin - PeerSpot reviewer
Peace of mind in identifying compromises in your M365 tenants
Huntress Managed ITDR examines various signals from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action. It's a comprehensive solution covering endpoints and cloud tenants, offering peace of mind. I recognized its benefits immediately, as it provides protection against M365 identity compromises, like admin account breaches.

Pros

"The advanced direct control on offer is excellent."
"It is easy to scale and it is suitable for organizations from small businesses to enterprise."

"The product is worth the investment."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and simple, meaning it's not much complicated."

"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."

"The initial setup was very easy."
"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
 

Cons

"For many, the problems come mostly when they start tweaking or short-cutting - particularly for patch management."
"The installation is not straightforward and should be easier to do."
"The main area for improvement is the dashboard of the cloud console, where we manage security policies and groupings. It needs to be more flexible and informative."
"The areas of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) and Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could benefit from improvement in terms of how problems are reported and displayed. The way the problems are presented and the information provided could be improved."
"There's room for improvement in terms of protection. That's my primary concern."
"Their ransomware remediation doesn't respond as fast as BullWall does...Ransomware control needs to be improved."
"They need to improve their encryption capabilities."
"In the future, maybe this will need to morph into AI threat intelligence."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"A downside of Huntress Managed ITDR is that some devices show they are not super compatible with the Defender for Endpoint integration."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"In areas where Huntress Managed ITDR could improve, I would suggest exclusions and the ability to add whitelisting for file types or select files, making it more transparent."
"If anything, it's created more work, but that's because we're now seeing things that we weren't seeing before."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, we have a better licensing agreement with Bitdefender than we did with competing vendors."
"Licensing is done on a yearly basis and it's workstation-based."
"The solution is affordable."
"The pricing is competitive."
"There are different packages available that vary in terms of licensing fees."
"The solution's pricing is average."
"The solution is not expensive but there are cheaper options in the market. In terms of competitiveness, the price is reasonable with no other additional costs besides the licensing fees."
"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."
