Admin gets the information about which computer has been infected and good to use for servers and endpoints
The important factor is that after implementing Bitdefender, we haven't found any attacks. It has a vaccine for the RDP protocol, which is specific to this. We do some customization, but it does not lack any protection. Compared to older versions, we have not found any degradation in performance in the newer versions from the last three to five years, whether for graphical or normal users. They're not complaining that we are facing problems like memory issues. Bitdefender is also customizable and granular, but once you install it, it keeps running. The admin gets the information about which computer has been infected and can take action accordingly. On a regular basis, Bitdefender's AI capability is okay. But you cannot leave some decisions to AI. You must have control. You have to look at what you're filtering, as it can be a false positive. But on a regular basis, AI can be helpful.

Offers a single console to control all applications and URL filtering
I am satisfied with the malware detection capabilities of the solution. At our company, using the product we haven't found any incidents or threats that couldn't be easily resolved. Most of the customers of Trend Micro ServerProtect in our organization belong to the Healthcare industry. I have witnessed smooth integrations with Trend Micro ServerProtect. I haven't yet noticed any AI capabilities in the product. I would recommend others to adopt Trend Micro ServerProtect as it can be easily installed and managed. The product assists in administration. The solution is a perfect fit for the SMB segment. I would rate Trend Micro ServerProtect an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The installation is easy and it takes approximately a few hours. We are deploying it from a Remote Monitoring and Management (RMM) tool. All you need to do is click on it and the installation is complete."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Enterprise Security has a lot of telemetry that allows me to really see what's going on with the device."
"The tool has a firewall module to control traffic. It also has a feature to map incidents and provide information about attackers and the environment."
"The product offers an opportunity to monitor the things happening in our network. It also has a comprehensive dashboard."
"Protection is the most valuable feature."
"I find Bitdefender to be very light. When we were using the other versions, users would complain that they would make the computers slow. But since we have deployed Bitdefender, we haven't had that."
"It is very easy to configure and deploy."
"You will always have a backup copy of any policy the Bitdefender user defines."
"Performance is very good."
"It helps us quickly address potential issues and provides us with valuable insights."
"I use this solution for data blocking, software protection, and frame protection."
"Scalable security solution with virtualization and virtual patching functions, able to provide full security that's specific to the service, e.g. it handles virtual machines better."
"Technical support was perfect."
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and antivirus capabilities."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"ServerProtect's best feature is virtual patching, which takes care of patching even if your servers aren't updated with the latest threat definitions."
 

Cons

"The Command Line Interface (CLI) is not improving. Even experienced personnel are finding it difficult."
"Potential areas for improvement could be more accessible and immediate support for critical situations, especially considering the regulatory challenges in healthcare."
"Sometimes the response from Technical Support takes more time than usual because level three support is not in Brazil."
"At this point in time, the download footprint is a bit big."
"The security features as per customers' requirements should be improved."
"The firewall capabilities could benefit from an upgrade since it lacks a high level of granularity and control."
"The live monitoring service from Bitdefender's center is expensive and has room for improvement."
"There are compatibility concerns as Bitdefender does not support Windows 7."
"Integration with different platforms could be an area for improvement in Trend Micro ServerProtect, e.g. it needs more integration. It could also be more secure and more stable. In the next release, this solution should also include more EDR visibility."
"Lacking analytics and a machine learning technique."
"Could include additional features such as an intrusion prevention system."
"I would like to see SMS notifications sent as alerts, in case we do not have access to our email."
"There are a few areas of improvement. Despite its high performance, there are certain aspects related to the operating system that could be improved. Specifically, I find that the protection for certain actions requires more effort compared to other actions."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
"One thing I have been facing is that some fake threats have appeared that even Trend Micro was not able to clear up. It couldn't tell you why these threats are happening, where they are coming from and what the costs are."
"The solution should provide features to block devices, specific IPs or URLs"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice
