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.
Alessandro Spiandore - PeerSpot reviewer

Long-term licensing has provided reliable lightweight protection for commercial customers and maintains strong performance without disrupting existing security tools
Kaspersky Total Security is a lightweight solution that does not slow down Windows. In many years of use for my customers, I have not had any broken software or other problems. Safe Money technology is available in the product, but I do not use it because my customers have other security solutions that intercept malware before Kaspersky on the firewall and networking firewall of LAN. I sell the various solutions of next generation, Optimum, and Advanced through MCP licensing.
