"The product is one of the market leaders, according to Gartner, on mobile protection."
"It's a straightforward solution for encryption."
"The platform provides good performance."
"Microsoft BitLocker's most valuable feature is endpoint encryption, and it's quite easy to manage."
"The solution is included in Windows 11."
"It is free and native to the OS. We don't have to worry about upgrades or maintaining the product. You encrypt the disk, and you save the recovery key. That's it. The person puts their password in, and after that, it is up to them. If they forget their password, they have to bring it in to get it unlocked."
"We have not seen any bugs or glitches, so the stability is good."
"There's a lot of manageability within the solution. This is very helpful."
"I liked the way it works with our Microsoft tools. As we roll out Intune, we can validate if the device has been encrypted, and if not, we can push it down. It is pretty simple to deploy."
"The one thing that I know that they're working on, that's not quite there in the product, is the artificial intelligence aspect."
"If integration with Active Directory are not mandatory for him, I think that there are many other solutions in the market that equal or are much stronger than Microsoft."
"The only thing that could be slightly improved is the occasional stability issue."
"They could improve cloud integration regarding attribute and encryption key management."
"For improvement, as it is now, I do not have any support from anyone. There should be a web interface to manage BitLocker. But for now, all I do is just install a new product on the user's machine and create it. I would like to be able to see everything that is happening, even if it is just through a web interface. I would also like to be able to see how many users are provisioned, which users are using BitLocker, and how to disable or enable it. That's what I would like to see."
"The implementation of BitLocker is not simple. There are many prerequisites and hours of study and testing."
"The biggest one for us is revoking access. So, even though someone downloads something to a device, we want the ability to cloak that device or data and bring it back or make that data unusable for that person. Currently, BitLocker doesn't give us that ability. It basically encrypts it. We're seeing if identity management or IAM allows us to do that. We're kind of looking at third-party software that does that for us."
"Lacks a portal that can be managed rather than just existing."
"The initial setup is complex."
