Room For Improvement

Bitdefender GravityZone struggles with user-friendliness, high costs, inflexible features, and insufficient support, needing better detection and interface.
Cynet should enhance mobile support, integration, customization, usability, and AI features, with better incident data and third-party integrations.
Initially, before we purchased it, the distributor acted as if they knew this product very well, but after we bought it and were supposed to deploy it, they were struggling, so we ended up getting it right ourselves.
Chief Technology Officer at DNN Technologies
The initial file I download to deploy on end-user devices is about six hundred to seven hundred megabytes, and it should be scaled down to an agent size of maybe less than one hundred megabytes, max.

Now, we have to do it via CLI, which even technical personnel struggle to understand.
CTO at Exceed NetSec LLC
There should be more options than deploying solely through group policy, as the assumption that GPO is working isn’t always the case.

Integration with local Active Directory, not only Azure AD, is a must.

Featured Reviews

Rias Majeed - PeerSpot reviewer
CTO at Exceed NetSec LLC
Delivers lightweight protection while facing challenges with technical aspects
I have been working with Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security for quite a long time, but recently, I do not appreciate their changes, especially on the technical side. They moved some portions to remote GUI-based interfaces. The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult. There is a power user function where you can stop it temporarily for installing applications. Previously, we had the option to click on the power user button and enter the password to allow stopping that particular function. Now, we have to do it via CLI, which even technical personnel struggle to understand. Currently, everything is working fine except for the technical aspects we can control. If they can revert to the old system, that would be much better. When we raise this issue with Bitdefender, they cite security reasons for the change. However, while Cisco is moving away from CLI to GUI, Bitdefender is moving backward. Normal users cannot handle these CLI operations effectively.
Roshan Jadhav - PeerSpot reviewer

Has improved threat detection and streamlined incident analysis through centralized control and AI-driven insights
People are looking for Cynet because it has next-generation threat protection that detects zero-day threats. It has UEBA (user entity behavior analysis), threat hunting features, and storage device control where we can create profiles and block unauthorized USB storage devices. We can also create threat protection policies to detect malware, ransomware, and many other threats. The most valuable feature is the UBA (User behavior analysis). It has integration with SIEM solutions, allowing us to share our logs to third-party SIEM servers. Cynet has AI integration which showcases complete forensic data about threats, making it very easy to understand what happened with the system and what type of incident was detected. Autonomous breach protection is a feature of Cynet which can detect and mitigate known and unknown threats based on signatures. If there are any signature-less files, malware, or ransomware, it will detect them based on autonomous breach protection capabilities. The centralized management console provides a dashboard where we can see four types of attack vectors and incident counts in real-time. It continuously scans the radar and shows open alerts related to files, hosts, users, or networks. We can easily export these alerts and send reports via email.
