Overall, I rate Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra a nine out of ten.

The solution is easy to use and has complex features leading to excellent work efficiency.

They should improve the solution's patch management feature. Also, they should work on business model encryption.

We have been using the solution for four years.

The solution is very stable.

We have small and enterprise companies as our customers using the solution.

The technical support of the solution is good.

It is easy to implement the solution. It needs two or three weeks to complete the process.

The solution is implemented in-house by two technical specialists.

The solution's price is mid-ranged. Its license costs around $10-15 dollars. Also, we need to buy a subscription for additional services.

I recommend the solution to others and rate it as an eight.

The tool alerts about lateral internet movements. 

The solution is sometimes resource-intensive. 

I have been using the solution for two and a half years. 

I have very good pricing for the solution, which is one of the reasons why I am not switching to other products. I rate the tool's pricing a two out of ten. 

I rate Bitdefender GravityZone EDR an eight out of ten. 

I primarily use the solution for server farms. 

The value is good. It's worth the cost. The pricing is reasonable. 

It offers good performance. 

The solution is very simple to set up. 

It's stable.

Technical support is good. 

I can't say I am aware of areas that need improvement. It's good overall. 

We would like to see a more advanced dashboard. Right now, it is very simple and not very advanced. I cannot search for or change things very easily.

I've been using the solution for about two or three years. 

We have found the performance of the product to be very good. it's reliable and stable. I'd rate the overall stability nine out of ten. 

The scalability is very good. It can expand as needed. We have about 1,000 users on the product currently. We may increase usage in the future.

The support is very good, and we are satisfied with their level of assistance. 

I also use Kaspersky. I've used it for about ten years versus the two or three I've used GravityZone for. 

We did not use any other EDR solution previously.

The solution is simple and straightforward to set up. It's not overly complex. 

It only took us about a day to set up the solution. 

Usually, the company can manage the initial setup itself. If any troubleshooting is needed, our team can handle it. 

The pricing is fine. We find it to be worth the cost. 

You need to pay for the license annually. 

I'd recommend the solution to others. I'd rate it nine out of ten overall. 

We provide this solution for anyone from a single user at home wanting to protect their PC, right up to large banking institutions with thousands of users. It's all about protecting computers from malware, ransomware, viruses, and the like. We are in partnership with Bitdefender and we're distributors of the product, functioning as a managed service provider. I'm the managing director of the company. 

The valuable features are, of course, the protection against malware, ransomware, and any other forms of malicious software, but the solution also provides application and device control which stops people copying things onto a memory stick, for example. In addition, it provides web filtering and blocking of inappropriate websites. The product covers pretty much every aspect of cyber security, but the primary function that everybody gets it for is the antimalware or antivirus protection.

The product is solid, it's why we chose to distribute it, we're very particular about the products we distribute and only take the best, so we don't distribute Symantec or any other AV solutions. It's value for money. There are some competing antiviruses out there which are at least as powerful. Products like Sophos, but they're about three times the price. The cheaper products, such as  ESET NOD32, for instance, are more suitable for individual use. Bitdefender is a user friendly and intuitive solution but we also have a team that provides support for our customers. 

The only issue an end user might have is in the case where a website has some kind of monitoring software included, where they want to track use, and it might unnecessarily block the site for the user. In that event, the user would contact us and we can 'white list' the site for them enabling them to use it. 

I've been working with this solution for three years. 

It's very stable, it's not going to slow your machine down, it's not going to create instabilities, like programs not working, things like that. We very rarely have issues where a customer has a problem on a PC caused by the antivirus. 

The beauty of being in the cloud is that it's completely scalable, and it's completely transparent. You can install it on one machine or on 100,000 machines. We have thousands of users with a single user or two user license, but we also have large organizations with 3,500 or 11,000 users. It's completely scalable, you don't have to change a thing, you just deploy to more machines, and it takes care of everything in the back end.

We carry out all the support on behalf of the company. There are five short, simple videos that explain step by step how to deploy. If somebody wants to do everything themselves and they don't want assistance from us, we simply send them the videos, and it's quite easy. We have online documentation as well, of course. 

We used to use iSheriff and Panda Antivirus but things change in the market, as the threat changes. As a distributor, if we see a product is starting to change focus and move away from an antivirus focus, like Panda did, we let them go. If we are changing products we institute a migration plan for our customers and we carry out the transition for them. 

It's extremely simple to deploy. When we receive an order from a customer, we go in and provision everything. We create the packages, we set the default settings, we do everything in the background. It takes approximately 15 minutes. Then the user gets a link where they download the installation, and they run it and click 'next' about three times and the entire installation takes care of itself. 

Everything is included in the licensing, unless you want to add additional solutions such as Full Disk encryption. It's an additional plugin that can be managed from the same console. We are the only company in South Africa able to provide Bitdefender on a monthly billing basis. With any other company, you'd have to buy it annually. About 50% of our customers are annual, 50% of them are monthly. It means that as your staff increases or your staff decreases, your bill will increase or decrease on a monthly basis. 

At the end of the day, it's important to choose a solid product and GravityZone's done that. Once you pass the hurdle of selecting the proper product, it's important to select the right partner who's going to be implementing, and can support you. You can buy a solution online but you get zero support. Buy locally, choose the right partner you know is going to look after you. Don't go to some computer shop in the mall, and go and buy the antivirus, because you're not going to get the support that you require. If it costs 5% more, it's worth it. 

I would rate this solution a 10 out of 10. 

The primary use case is for endpoint security.

It is so automated that it runs itself.

• Unified malware threat detection
• Sandboxing
• Firewall

These are all built into the product.

The one thing that we are missing and want to see is user analytics. So, that is what I'm really interested in: behavior analytics and end user behavior.

The product is stable. It has a small footprint, but it does a lot of heavy lifting.

It is very scalable; the sky is the limit.

The technical support is good. We use a third-party partner who deals directly with their technical support. I have never dealt directly with them.

The initial setup is very straightforward. It is a basic installation on the endpoint, which is all sucked up into the endpoint console, so you can get all your basic analytics right there.

We have seen ROI. We have seen a decrease by minutes in the mean time to detect or respond to threats.

The price is per license per endpoint. The price is different for everyone, but we find the price is cheap for us.

I would recommend this solution.

Overall, it is lightweight. It does a lot of heavy lifting in a short, small package, which is what I like about it. It doesn't bring down the end user, like some of these endpoint security products, which really suck up resources from the end user. BitDefender doesn't, so that's important to me.

Bitdefender GravityZone EDR needs to be more stable. 

I have been working with the solution for two to three years. 

I rate the tool's stability a nine out of ten. 

Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is scalable. 

Bitdefender GravityZone EDR's installation is straightforward. 

Bitdefender GravityZone EDR is cheaper than Kaspersky. There are no additional costs apart from licensing ones. 

I rate the product an eight out of ten. 

The solution suits the needs of our business model. 

The URL filtering features should be addressed. 

The installation capabilities should be improved, especially when new updates come out. Sometimes, installation requires one to get to the level of having to install the agents. The installation is not straightforward and should be easier to do. 

We have been using Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra for over a year. 

We find the rollout to be stable. 

The solution is scalable. 

As we keep on expanding and opening new businesses, we have definite plans to increase the usage within the coming year. 

We have had no issues with the support and consider it to be good, even when it comes to accredited resellers.

We have made use of technical support and I believe this is something one wishes to experience as time goes by. 

The installation capabilities should be improved, especially when new updates come out. Sometimes, installation requires one to get to the level of having to install the agents. The installation is not straightforward and should be easier to do.

The process lasted three or four minutes. 

The installation can be done on one's own or with the help of a technical team. We have a team that handles this.

We did this at the group level and manage different entities. There are so many factors that are involved in the installation. We must account for the number of endpoint devices that we're working with, their geographical coverage, the time involved, and the network experience website. In cases where we face obstacles on the network, the downloading of the agents prior to the commencement of the installation is quite time consuming. 

Each endpoint device we purchased came with its own license. 

Our subscription is yearly. 

We did evaluate other options and found that they provide good antivirus solutions. However, we felt the added functionality of Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to suit our business model well. Our business model does not allow us to invest in other, unified, solutions when it comes to other aspects of security. This is because of how the business model is and how the other branches are set up. 

I am satisfied with the overall updates that are introduced and they continue to do so on their central panel, especially on the reporting side. My hope is that they continue with this trend. 

The solution is cloud-based. 

If I'm doing a cumulative account of all the business entities within our group, I would say that there are 5,000 people making use of the solution. 

I consider Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra to be one of the best integrator solutions. We have never faced challenges when it comes to support. We are talking about a very good solution which works for both small and large enterprises. This is an antivirus solution which truly invested in centralized management, something which allows one to centrally manage his policies and do monitoring irrespective of where the endpoint devices are located. 

We have been interacting with different resellers in disparate entities, something which is influenced by the time one buys and the geographical location and which is done to avoid tax issues both here and there. I believe this is something we will look to consolidate in the near future. 

I rate Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra as a nine out of ten.
