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.

Continuous network insight has improved early threat detection and streamlined investigations
Overall, we have a positive experience with Trellix Network Detection and Response, but like any enterprise security solution, there are areas where it can continue to improve. One area would be user interface and dashboard customization. While the platform provides a lot of valuable information, new users can sometimes face a learning curve when navigating and investigating and creating customized views. More intuitive dashboards would simplify workflows and help analysts access critical information even faster. Another area for improvement is reporting and analytics. The existing reporting capabilities are useful, but more flexibility and customizable reporting options would make it easier to generate executive-level summaries, compliance reports, and operational metrics for different audiences.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The quarantine computer functionality is very good for me."
"The threat detection rates are exceptionally good, better than most of the competition."
"The product is easy to use."
"The best thing about Bitdefender is that it has got top-notch features and it is not tied to specific countries like some other antivirus tools."
"We are using Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus for the threat protection and security of our network."
"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."
"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is highly stable."
"The biggest impact Trellix Network Detection and Response has had on our organization is improved visibility across our environment and better confidence during investigations, as security analysts can understand suspicious behavior more clearly instead of depending solely on isolated alerts."
"The solution can scale."
"It is stable and quite protective. It has a lot of features to scan a lot of malicious things and vulnerabilities."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response definitely helps make investigations faster and more efficient."
"Over the thirteen years of using the product, we have not experienced a single compromise in our environment. During the COVID period, we faced numerous DDoS attacks, and the tool proved highly effective in mitigating these threats."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response has positively impacted my organization by addressing performance issues, specifically by offloading heavy traffic inspection and SSL inspection through sensors due to the limitations of the firewall."
"After deploying Trellix Network Detection and Response, we saw a noticeable improvement in our security operations, as threat detection and incident times were reduced by 40 to 50 percent, the security team spent significantly less time manually analyzing network traffic, and we were able to identify suspicious activity that previously went unnoticed, leading to faster containment of potential incidents and improved overall response efficiency."
"The best features that Trellix Network Detection and Response offers are visibility, threat detection, and immediate response, which allows us to take action almost instantly while keeping proof through proper data capture and maintaining logs for future analysis to prevent attacks and ensure that we have the right policies and controls."
 

Cons

"Detection and response is a disadvantage that could be improved."
"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."
"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."
"The solution must improve its management features."
"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."
"Adding a feature like Data Loss Prevention would be beneficial."
"To improve Trellix Network Detection and Response, I suggest enhancing reporting customization; the reports can be much better, and I should have the ability to customize them much more freely."
"The customer service is not that good."
"The support is somewhat lacking with long response times."
"It would be great if we could create granular reports based on the protocols, types of attacks, regions of attack, etc. Also we would like to easily be able to add exceptions to rules in cases of false positives."
"Trellix Network Detection and Response cannot be operated without customer support, especially during the first year and a half of use."
"It would be very helpful if there were better integration with other solutions from other vendors, such as Fortinet and Palo Alto."
"Its documentation can be improved. The main problem that I see with FireEye is the documentation."
"I heard that FireEye recently was hacked, and a lot of things were revealed."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus is pretty average, meaning it's not cheaper, but it's pretty good. It has average pricing."
"We have purchased licenses for the use of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra Plus. The price of the solution is reasonable but could be better."
"When you purchase FireEye Network Security NX, will need to purchase a megabit per second package. You must know your needs from day one."
"When I compare this solution to its competitors in the market, I find that it is a little expensive."
"We're partners with Cisco so we get a reasonable price. It's cheaper than Palo Alto in terms of licensing."
"FireEye is comparable to other products, such as HX, but seems expensive. It may cause us to look at other products in the market."
"The user fee is not as high but the maintenance fee is expensive."
"Because of what the FireEye product does, it has significantly decreased our mean time in being able to identify and detect malicious threats. The company that I work with is a very mature organization, and we have seen the meantime to analysis decrease by at least tenfold."
"It's an expensive solution."
"Its price is a bit high. A small customer cannot buy it. Its licensing is on a yearly basis."
