Automated protection has reduced our management time and keeps all client environments consistently secure

Reporting in Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could be improved. It has some reporting in it, but it's a little cumbersome to work with, so the reporting that is there could be improved. The analytics dashboards of Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) are quite useful, and they are nice in that we can see an overview very quickly and drill down into specific issues or specific clients. The dashboards are quite good, though it would be nice if we had the same with automated reports. It would be much more useful for us to have that via email or having a report. The only downside that we find is that the product is a little bit slow.

"The product is easy to use."

"The solution has best-in-breed technology and scores very highly on efficacy rates."

"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is highly stable."

"I find Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus to be a pretty good solution for the mid-level market, specifically for organizations with up to two hundred fifty users. I like that it is an averagely priced solution. It also has a straightforward installation that can be completed within three to five minutes. Its technical support is also good enough."

"The best features in the product, as a reseller, are the integrated SOC; integration with a SOC is one of the advantages."

"The quarantine computer functionality is very good for me."

"We moved from Sophos antivirus to Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR), and ever since then, we've been very happy with the product."

"The threat detection rates are exceptionally good, better than most of the competition."

More Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) pros

"Our customers are satisfied with FortiXDR."

"The product is stable enough."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is it integrates well with other Fortinet solutions, such as Fortinet firewall, FortiMail, FortiSandbox, Forti Fabric, switches, and access points. Whatever the flow of the traffic comes in or goes out, the entire traffic can be managed and monitored properly."

"FortiXDR is valuable for its integration capabilities with one hundred percent compatibility with other vendors in cloud environments like Google, Oracle, and Microsoft."

"The most valuable feature of FortiXDR is its ability to block clients, providing comprehensive endpoint protection."

Cons

"Some customers would like additional features that aren't available through the current GravityZone platform."

"The solution must improve its management features."

"The solution seems to be pretty amateur for an EDR solution, and it should be more in sync in terms of features, with solutions such as FireEye and SentinelOne."

"Adding a feature like Data Loss Prevention would be beneficial."

"Detection and response is a disadvantage that could be improved."

"I would like automatic issue fixing for users without needing to physically open the PC. I'd prefer updates and fixes from the cloud to avoid headaches and save time."

"Reporting in Bitdefender GravityZone Extended Detection and Response (XDR) could be improved."

"Some customers would like additional features that aren't available through the current GravityZone platform. Some feedback has been about the deletion of other software not going smoothly during the installation of Bitdefender, particularly the removal of previous software like Sophos."

"Improvement is needed in the intuitiveness and integration measures of FortiXDR, especially in terms of compatibility."

"Improvement is needed in the intuitiveness and integration measures of FortiXDR, especially in terms of compatibility."

"They could change their licensing costs to make it more affordable for smaller businesses."

"Many of the solutions, such as CrowdStrike have an MDR solution where remediation can be provided by the vendor. For example, if there is any zero data threat found, a new threat that the customer is not able to recognize, fix, or understand what needs to be done this feature has to be added in FortiXDR so that the customer feels comfortable."

"The pricing of FortiXDR should be improved."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have purchased licenses for the use of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus. The price of the solution is reasonable but could be better."

"This is an expensive solution compared to other vendors, such as Check Point."

XDR Defined and Explained
Extended detection and response (XDR) is a natural extension of the endpoint detection and response (EDR) concept, in which behaviors that occur after threat prevention controls act are further inspected for potentially malicious, suspicious, or risky activity that warrant mitigation. The difference is simply the location (endpoint or beyond) where the behaviors occur.
