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…
Urs Schuerch - PeerSpot reviewer
A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and firewall policies. The runtime scans and execution have been beneficial to our business."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR needs to be more stable."
"The initial setup is easy."
"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."
"The advantage of the solution is that it has a console on the cloud and you can update the clients."
"The best feature for our customers is the ransomware feature. It is very fresh and powerful. Bitdefender also has a feature called Ransomware Vaccine. With this feature, when a file from the ransomware is encrypted Bitdefender can revert it back to the original file. It automatically decrypts the file and puts the ransom in quarantine."
"It efficiently investigates security incidents."
"I have found Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to be highly scalable."
"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"Webroot's tech support is pretty good; they've given me some pointers."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
"The feature we found most valuable is the AI functionality for maintaining endpoint security. This is very powerful."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
 

Cons

"The graphical user interface for EDR could be improved."
"The pricing should be improved. The user interface has been improved on a yearly basis. The key issue is that they need to look at their pricing."
"The cryptosystem could be improved a bit."
"We would like to see a more advanced dashboard."
"While the solution is secure, it could have better integration."
"The software itself is solid. It would be better if it was more of a real-time solution, like SentinelOne. The one thing that holds me back on the SentinelOne side is that I can blacklist websites and stuff like that, but it's not as granular as Bitdefender. With Bitdefender, I feel like I have more control over what I can whitelist and blacklist."
"Other solutions are cheaper than GravityZone."
"The on-premises setup for Bitdefender sometimes faces issues with connectivity. Management of Windows Defender is a bit easier compared to Bitdefender."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"There should be a Webroot Business Endpoint Protection mobile app."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"I did notice that my OS slowed down, but I don't know if that's due to Webroot."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We need to pay for a yearly license for the solution."
"Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cost-effective and has the best pricing."
"The solution is affordable."
"It has a suitable price for every company and organization."
"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."
"The product has a reasonable price."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"It is not that expensive. Compared to its competitors, it is well-priced and well-placed."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"I think the price is fairly reasonable. I was really prepared to pay more, but the price is fine."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
"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."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"It is relatively cheap."
