Bitdefender GravityZone Capterra reviews

Bitdefender Reivew

Pros: Software is very complete in the security features. Cons: A lot of features to learn and setup. Sometimes you need support to walk you through the setup.

Simplified, not simple security tool

Very easy to get running with very little issues. I don't actually know how much it's doing, but my business has yet to have any attacks! Pros: It's easy to get going, but also has the nitty gritty depth and controls an admin wants. I wasn't that versed in IT security software, but when we switched it was very easy to purchase, distribute, and get going. It's almost set it and forget it after that if you don't make any changes. Cons: There are some features that get disabled at different tiers that seem arbitrary or were available and no longer are at the low tier. When this happens, the clients think they should still have the feature and start throwing security risk messages.

Best Antimalware Platform I've Used in the last 20 years

Bitdefender has been incredible to work with as a vendor. Bitdefender actually listens to their customers. After submitting a number of detailed bug reports and feature requests, I was actually approached by Product Management for my input and to better understand some of the suggestions I had made. When we decided to make the migration to their cloud solution, there was no integration with our LogRhythm SIEM. I worked with both vendors to make this happen and it was Bitdefender that finally provided a solution. they actually went through the process of becoming a LogRhythm partner to get access to resources to make this happen. Migration was held up for a significant time waiting on this. Bitdefender did not activate our subscription license until I have them the go ahead after integration was established. I was able to set up the cloud infrastructure before we started paying for it. Cons: The only time I've run into significant difficulty was migrating from on premise to the cloud. The methods for doing that were not ass clean or simple to implement as I would have liked. The migration patch is not "finished" software and I've determined that systems that were "migrated" have leftover information from the On-Premise configuration that causes random communication issues that are invariably cleared by uninstalling and reinstalling.

It also offers integration with other security solutions, such as SIEM (security information and event management) and other endpoint protection platforms, to provide an even more comprehensive security posture. Pros: Bitdefender GravityZone is a comprehensive cybersecurity solution that provides advanced threat prevention, risk management, and endpoint protection for businesses of all sizes. It is designed to help companies detect, prevent, and respond to cyberattacks, and to secure their network, endpoints, and sensitive data. Cons: Due to the many features and tools offered by GravityZone, the platform can be quite complex and may require more IT expertise and resources to implement and manage.

My REview for Bitdefender GaravityZone

Pros: I appreciate that Bitdefender GravityZone provides strong defense against viruses, ransomware, and other dangers. Additionally, it offers strong security analytics that let customers immediately spot unusual activity on their networks. Bitdefender GravityZone is a fantastic option for organizations of all sizes because it is simple to adopt and operate. Cons: The occasionally sluggish scanning performance of Bitdefender GravityZone is one of its least preferred features. Also, folks who are not tech-savvy may find the interface's intricacy to be intimidating. Another drawback for consumers who desire more control over their security settings is the lack of customizability.

A good Defender

as a user I was happy with it, but after the incident we had to move to other softwares Pros: it is very easy to use and easy to install and easy to maintain and easy to figure out, unlike many rivals it is very much to the point Cons: I think it could have more features and more accurate when it comes to network protection, while using it our company suffered an attack which I think Bitdefender could do a better job

Best budget friendly antivirus for business

Pros: Reliable detection of malware and computer viruses and putting the ransomware outside the network zone. Easy to use and reliable policy management provides better usage of the antivirus. Cons: Has best-in-class virus detection rollback on ransomware is lacking sometimes. The cumbersome setup process for the initial setup makes us feel wired and hard to work.

Good endpoint security tool

Pros: We use Bitdefender GravityZone as a endpoint protection tool. It is quite complete for the protection of the device, very customizable and can be tailored to the company requirements. It well integrates with other software to gain complete protection Cons: Not always easy to use completely, more complex functionalities need a bit of experience to be understood and settled up

Great price but lacking functionality.

Great early on, the price is fantastic, but we wanted more functionality, Pros: Bitdefender is easy to install and provision. Creating the profile was easy as well. Cons: We felt like the product has decreased in functionality and is closer to consumer grade Antivirus product.

Highly Recommended

Pros: I like that it's never let a threat overcome any endpoint. Cons: The management of the software, protection profiles and other settings is somewhat confusing. The terms used in the dashboard area are sometimes confusing and could use some better explanation in the help area.

Bitfender - Good Value in its space

Pros: The detection rate and response is top notch. No real problems. I wish the notifications and detection notification... and licensing notifications were a little more reliable. Cons: The ability to deploy remotely would be awesome...

Bitdefender for the win!

My experience with Bitdefender has been amazing. We have a three year contract with them and will defiantly re-knew with another three years. Pros: Bitdefender customer response time is impeccable. When it comes to an intrusion notification to a response to a question I have. The response time is unmatched. Cons: One con that comes at the top of my head is the Web-GUI. Especially the part when it comes to whitelisting a website. If the website tabs to a sub-URL but has the beginning matching. Bitdefender does not care it will still block that portion of the website. Which is annoying, but it is still good to see that specifics need to be entered to allow whitelisting.

A great endpoint security solution but not easy to manage

Overall it was positive, because it is a powerful and effective endpoint security solution, however, as an IT Engineer it was hard to manage and maintain. Pros: I like how effective it is against threats of various natures. It is without a doubt a powerful solution for any company, big or small. Cons: It is not easy to manage. We had bitdefender management platform installed inside our on-prem infrastructure, and while it worked great, managing endpoints, creating and managing policies is a complex endeavour and not intuitive at all. Also, it may be trivial to some, but scheduled scanning while active tends to use quite a chunk of system resources slowing down the computer significatly during active operations.

One of the greatest antivirus

Actually, it was a great experience working with Bitdefender and I were always sure that my PC will be safe, but we didn't use Bitdefender for a long time because we could find better offers from local vendors of other antivirus applications Pros: We have used Bitdefender in our company as endpoint security and network protection. I like the antivirus and malware protection on the PC it works very effectively, and it is one of the oldest antivirus applications in the world. Cons: This software is a little bit expansive compared to same antivirus applications.

Good for Security

My overall experience with Bitdefender GravityZone has been good so far, and I definitely recommend it. Pros: Bitdefender GravityZone offers some nice features like: The Apps Blacklist, Malware detection, system analysis, etc. All these combined with the nice user-interface make this software a pretty decent one. Cons: There is not a lot I don't like about Bitdefender GravityZone, but their prices are a bit high. It would be nice to see a slight reduction in the prices. Other than that, I think initial installation and setup should be made easier on the user.

Cheap Cloud managed endpoint protection

Good and cheap cloud based endpoint protection management. Pros: Definitly the price is a big factor here, Bitdefender is beating most of the Endpoint Protection business market with it's price. Software itself is ok . Nothing awesome and nothing bad too be honest. Cons: I had some problems with implementing it on computers with Win11, but in the end we made it working.

Overall best platform to secure your data

Overall, the product is good to secure all your online data Pros: Their features to protect your data online at a nominal charge is the likings. They are best security and risk analytics platform for small businesses. Cons: I didn't find any such thing that I like the least.

Perfect protection for corporate environments

Pros: As an user, I feel it's not intrusive, doesn't break your workflow and does it's job. Cons: It doesn't always update by itself, sometimes I have to manually trigger updates. I am not sure if it's a configuration or software problem.

Not a good option for SMBs without dedicated IT support

For a small business owner who cannot afford a dedicated IT support the time requirements to manage GZ to simply install a lot of the software desired for the business cost much more in my time than whatever discount savings I may have obtained. No doubt GZ is great for those with a need to centrally manage their security and/or have the necessary IT support/inclination to manage the policies, etc. However, for a small team (less than 5), setting up individual machines was far quicker, less hassle, and less cost. Pros: It is obviously high end security and is well rated by professional reviewers. However, that security is often too strict and installation of many software packages becomes frustratingly difficult. Cons: I could never simply pause the security protection. No doubt for IT professionals setting up all the necessary components for a power user, end-point policies, etc. is relatively simple. However, I hit brick walls every time I tried. Support articles were frustratingly incomplete, either assuming completion of prior steps, or not achieving desired results when (I believe) following through step by step. No doubt I was missing something meant to already be in place, or misunderstood, or something...

Catastrophic Breach of Trust: Compromised Perimeter and Active Cover-Up

Pros: Absolutely none. A clean user interface is completely worthless when the software actively green-lights credential-harvesting threats and drops them into the inbox. Cons: The baseline Web Shield SDK is fundamentally broken. Internal support admitted in writing [sensitive content hidden] that it cannot intercept basic phishing threats without an upgraded ATS module. Worse, when confronted, the company utilizes deceptive bait-and-switch tactics, dumping paid users into crippled 30-day trials instead of honoring negotiated enterprise settlements.
