Pourquoi passer à Heimdal Threat Prevention

Avantages

The best feature is its complete ease of use. To the untrained, it may look like it doesn't have many features. But that's because it is all managed from behind, and you don't need to touch it on the endpoint.

Inconvénients

We do have the occasional oddity where a program stops working or a port is blocked, and this can be Heimdal being too over protective.

Avantages

The software does not take many resources, updates automatically, endpoints can be put in Groups for certain policies, the inventory tool is useful, and installation is quick.

Inconvénients

It is based in another country, and customer support is on different hours.

Avantages

It is founded on a deep understanding of the threat landscape and uses all the tools to mitigate that threat.

Inconvénients

Can throw up some Java errors on Mac and the interface is a little clunky although a new one is on the way.

Avantages

I like the secure login and the tool has amazing network and computer security features.

Inconvénients

Heimdal Threat Prevention meets business needs - no complaints.

Avantages

We bought the product to get a "setup and forget" product to easily patch known 3rd party software on our company pc's. Today we have ended up using it for elevating rights when needed to manually install software and also DNS filtering to prevent users from reaching bad sites and services when not connected our sites. We are happy with the product.

Inconvénients

We often do see false positives in Darklayer guard which we use time reporting to Heimdal. However Heimdal has promised to look into how we can easier report such a site to Heimdal for global white listing.

Avantages

Since this software is not saturating the market as McAfee, Symantec, or AVG have, it is never specifically targeted by malware developers. Therefore it maintains a high rate of detection for zero-day threats with an acceptable rate of false positives.

Inconvénients

After installing the software I frequently received spammy systray notifications begging me to upgrade, interfering with my full-screen HTPC GUI. However, emailing support I was able to resolve this issue.

Avantages

Easy to use, high protection, fast and good support.

Inconvénients

No missing features. Two times i had missing feature and in a very short time Heimdal has integrated it in the product.

Avantages

1. Easy to setup and use.
2. Interface has been modern and clean from start.
3. Provides the best protection against Malicious websites, phishing etc.
4. Has added more features like Firewall, antivirus etc. to compete with other security apps.

Inconvénients

I did not find anything to dislike in the improved versions unlike in previous version in which the app used to change a DNS setting.

Avantages

It was clear from the start that Heimdal's security offering was very comprehensive and offered some of the best functionality on the market.

Inconvénients

I least like the cost as once you have added the various elements this can prove pretty costly for an SMB. The pricing would be much more palatable for a larger firm.

Avantages

ease and tranquility. he does his job clearly, automatically and safely

Inconvénients

So far, there's nothing in it that I can put as bad. I am 100% satisfied with it and its features.

Avantages

Easy to buy and install, easy to set up and requires minimal service.

Inconvénients

Lacks function to handle licenses, so you do not have to get customer support to add / remove users.

Avantages

It requires little knowledge and very little intervention while performing an important and complex function.

Inconvénients

Occasionally there is something I can't work out how to do - but support is always there to help.

Avantages

Its stable, and very often find viruses. It has been a good experience overall.

Inconvénients

There is really nothing i dislike about it.

Avantages

The protecion against known malicious domains aswell as pattern recognition for unknown

Inconvénients

internal DNS can get confused at times, trying to look up internal servers on the internet instead

Avantages

Nothing has slipped past quarantine. What's more to like?

Inconvénients

It's a bit difficult to manage and perform manual scans. Removing/deleting quarantined files requres direct access to the device.

Avantages

Smooth running, easy to install and use. High value for the money.
Integrates perfectly with Bitdefender Total Security

Inconvénients

I can not find anything to complain about.

Not very easy interface, I am using it with windows 10

Avantages

Support is very responsive, even though this is a free trial.

Inconvénients

I have nothing to complain about so far

Avantages

Quietly works in the back ground and causes no grief to end users.

Inconvénients

The DNS feature caused us issues on a big network/

Avantages

I am comfortable with the security it provides and the ability to control client activities

Inconvénients

Rarely client status regarding Windows updates and reboots is inaccurate.

Avantages

First of all, for a free trial/free product, this is one of the most complex ones.
I had paid products that do not offer so much even if they were paid.

Also, the support for the free trial/free product is there even if you did not both it.

Inconvénients

As of now I do not have any issues to report regarding the product.

All in all a good product.

Avantages

Very effective when it comes to threat hunting. Since I have this product, I feel safer when it comes to attacks that could infiltrate our network.

Inconvénients

Couldn't spot any improvements so far. We will need more time to work with it and eventually will reach out to them.

Avantages

Everything is just perfect, but I like the most the speed of the DNS filtering. It happens so fast that you don't even realize that there is a DNS filtering on your machine. Wonderful!

Inconvénients

I don't think that there is something that I don't like about this product.
