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.

Provides a user-friendly experience compared to other endpoint security solutions and excellent real-time threat protection but poor customer service and support
I appreciate the user interface (UI/UX). Kaspersky provides a user-friendly experience compared to other endpoint security solutions. Additionally, Kaspersky offers a large number of robust default policies, such as USB blockage. I really like this feature. Kaspersky provides excellent real-time threat protection. Your main database server is connected to the Kaspersky server, preventing zero-day exploits, advanced threats, and APTs (Advanced Persistent Threats). This protects your confidential data. Importantly, Kaspersky now uses signature-less technology, a crucial feature for combatting modern viruses, malware, and threats that have evolved beyond traditional signature-based detection. Before 2011, endpoint security worked on signature-based detection. Kaspersky is working on signature-less technology, so I really like that.
