SOC Engineer at a outsourcing company with 10,001+ employees
Provides detailed event investigation and endpoint control but needs better Mac support and UI improvements
I find the advanced behavioral analytics feature in Bitdefender GravityZone EDR a little gimmicky, as I don't usually find much use for it. The advanced behavioral analytics feature needs to be optimized to be more user-friendly and easier to work with. We don't specifically look for the customizable dashboards within Bitdefender GravityZone EDR; rather, we get the logs on our SIEM solution, QRadar, where we have created the dashboards. We also have Tableau and Power BI, so we don't utilize any dashboards on the EDR front. I would like to optimize the incident response area as well, especially when comparing my experience with CrowdStrike, which is relatively more responsive and easier to navigate when there are multiple hosts involved. Other areas of improvement for Bitdefender GravityZone EDR include its lack of support for Mac devices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The advantage of the solution is that it has a console on the cloud and you can update the clients."
"They are constantly updating the solution against malware."
"We like the dashboard, the console, the reporting. It's very easy to deploy."
"GravityZone can be controlled from the cloud."
"With Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra, we don't have to worry about our endpoints or attacks. Our security has become stronger. This has been a reliable solution for our company."
"I have access to it from anywhere."
"I have found Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to be highly scalable."
"Go for Bitdefender GravityZone EDR without any second thought."
"The ease of use of the centralized admin console is its best asset."
"Valuable features include good scanning, very light footprint and management console that the client can access and (just as important) in which I can see status of groups of computers (I am a consultant, IT role)."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"Low performance requirements."
"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."
 

Cons

"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR doesn't have an official office in Saudi Arabia, which is important if the vendor wants to gain or be closer to their customers."
"Areas for improvement would be performance and pricing."
"This solution would be improved if it included antivirus functionality. You currently need to install a plug-in to Outlook for each email to be scanned."
"The one thing I'd say about their complete MDR product is that it's too expensive, which is why I prefer to use an alternative SOC and integrate Bitdefender to a different SOC on their own."
"They should include the Hebrew language for its technical support in terms of communication."
"We find it's making the machines run slow."
"The product fails to provide guides to its users...I want the tool to offer some guides and hands-on training that can guide users who want to learn more about the product without the vendor's help."
"The on-premises setup for Bitdefender sometimes faces issues with connectivity. Management of Windows Defender is a bit easier compared to Bitdefender."
"Their customer support should be better. We started having some issues with it, and we didn't get the required support."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"Usually, when it comes to reliability, McAfee and Norton are at 99 percent. Webroot's percentage is lower. It is 94% reliable in terms of what it catches, but you're trading that percentage for customer satisfaction because your computer isn't being constantly told that it just blocked something, or it just did something."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing is done on a yearly basis and it's workstation-based."
"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."
"There is a fully functional trial that we used and we didn't have any issues."
"It has a suitable price for every company and organization."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra's pricing is competitive in the market."
"When I first started using this solution I was paying $80 annually. I did not pay any additional fees. There are other solutions that are cheaper on the market."
"Price-wise, Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is a bit expensive in the Philippines."
"We need to pay for a yearly license for the solution."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"The pricing is high."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
