Arvin Nuhandya - PeerSpot reviewer
User-friendly and best suitable for small to medium businesses
Setting up Bitdefender is easy if there is no existing endpoint protection. If there is, it gets a bit more complicated. You will need to remove any current security software on your computer or endpoint before installing Bitdefender to avoid conflicts. Deployment involved registering online and, during the process, we encountered minimal issues. Any problems were quickly resolved by referring to the well-defined website resources. The deployment team consisted of just one or two people, given that we are an SMB company. The entire deployment took approximately two hours. Maintaining Bitdefender is easy, especially with the cloud-based version. However, in an on-premise setup using the call function, it might involve moving from PC to PC for upkeep.

A tool that offers good UI and documentation
Webroot Business Endpoint Protection had sent me a physical installation medium, which was very easy to obtain and deploy. It was also easy to configure, and it had a nice UI. I didn't have any problems with the product. I think that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very transparent about the pricing models offered to users. The tool also maintains transparency about the features and specifications. Previously, when I compared the two products with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I saw that with Trend Micro, it is very difficult to transparently find out what it offers and how much it charges for it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The software consolidates multiple features under one license. Bitdefender protects against ransomware attacks. Furthermore, it covers various devices under a single subscription."
"I value Bitdefender Total Security for its effectiveness in scanning even the latest threats, and protecting my system from potential malware."
"The tool blocks malicious downloads. Its most valuable feature is the Autopilot mode."
"It is quite stable. It handles updates and patches nicely."
"I found Bitdefender Total Security easy to use. The interface is straightforward, and it runs silently in the background."
"Bitdefender Total Security is a cloud-based solution with lower costs. We haven't encountered any security issues since using the product."
"It speeds up processes, efficiently cleans up caches that would typically take a considerable amount of time to locate, and overall, it noticeably quickens the pace of my computer usage."
"The product's firewall protection and anti-theft features are valuable."
"The ease of use of the centralized admin console is its best asset."
"Their policy management, their cloud-based dashboard and user interface are very easy to navigate."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very scalable."
"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"It is very light. It is the only solution that can be installed on a machine that already has an antivirus. It is a pretty complete solution."
 

Cons

"Sometimes, it blocks some networks that we are using."
"Bitdefender Total Security needs to improve its security features."
"If Bitdefender Total Security could reduce the processing power."
"Bitdefender Total Security should improve its resource usage. It should also work on cloud storage."
"It would be beneficial if Bitdefender could enhance the speed of its updates for a more immediate response to emerging threats."
"The location-tracking feature for finding phones could be improved, as well as the remote wipe functionality."
"When it comes to areas for enhancement, I would suggest focusing on advanced threat detection to address evolving malware."
"The solution could improve the way they manage it."
"Their customer support should be better. We started having some issues with it, and we didn't get the required support."
"We need more control over when upgrades to the app are rolled out."
"An updated UI would be nice, but is not hardly used."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"Webroot is very reactionary. It waits until the threat is active within memory to try and detect it. They need better pre-execution detection and prevention."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It falls in the middle range in terms of pricing—it's neither very cheap nor overly expensive."
"The product operates on a yearly licensing basis, with options for multi-year licenses available at discounted rates."
"The product is not expensive."
"The pricing is quite reasonable. I don't find it expensive."
"The tool's pricing is high compared to other products."
"From a pricing standpoint, I would rate it a four out of five."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"Work on a price tier plan."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"Its cost is not much per month. Our price is a couple of bucks a user."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
