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 advantage of the solution is that it has a console on the cloud and you can update the clients."
"If you detect a virus, you can isolate the PC from the network and prevent access to the internet, network and routers. Once fixed, you can give access back to the client. We have not had this functionality using other solutions."
"One of the most valuable features is the signature updating in near real-time."
"They are constantly updating the solution against malware."
"The most valuable feature of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra is the ETX and ETM endpoint protection."
"We like the dashboard, the console, the reporting. It's very easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is easy to use and simple, meaning it's not much complicated."
"The advanced direct control on offer is excellent."
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"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."
"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."
"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."
"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."
 

Cons

"Using this product requires quite a bit of training, which is hard to get."
"There was a bit of a problem deploying."
"They need to improve the dashboard by adding a dedicated executive view. This view should provide executives with a clear overview of what's happening."
"Bitfender could improve their modules on the server. For example, Bitdefender doesn't have content filters or firewall modules on the server. It would be great if it had a networking module and a content filter module at the workstations."
"Policy customization and deployment need a little bit of improvement. The push policies, the first line, and all those things."
"The cryptosystem could be improved a bit."
"We find it's making the machines run slow."
"The firewall security could be better."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
"It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"It needs to improve the problems with the faster connection, and have a huge reduction in false positives."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is very cost-effective."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
