About Heimdal Threat Prevention
Heimdal Threat Prevention is an advanced DNS security solution that adds hunting on top of traditional endpoint detection and response. It achieves this by filtering traffic at the levels of the DNS, HTTP, and HTTPS on both your endpoints and your network.
Designed to enrich any existing antivirus, Heimdal Threat Prevention goes beyond standard signature-based detection. Its machine learning-powered capabilities allow it to spot both known and unknown malware strains for complete protection against cyberattacks. With as much as 97% of malware being polymorphic these days, this is particularly important in a successful digital security strategy.

Avoid attacks by 2-way DNS filtering
Very useful. Big help as users will click on links or try to enter suspicious websites
PROSEasy to use and highly effective. Short time from implementing to full use as all settings are predefined - you can of course change those.
CONSIt cost money :-) Heimdal separate functions in new modules. Everybody needs to make money but some functions could be under existing modules.
Reason for choosing Heimdal Threat Prevention
Heimdal has great support and an easy to use dashboard. Symantec do not have 2-way DNS filtering

They just get it right!
Great Co, Great Product and excellent customer service - Heimdal Security stand proud for showing the industry how it should be done!
PROSIt's not just the feature rich software its that fact that this company stand right behind their product with nothing short of excellent support. They know it's important to get to clients promptly and they know they need to have actionable knowledge. They excel at both.
CONSthe web ui is a little cluttered and not easy to navigate. I'm learning to live with it's foibles and the Pros outway the cons.
Reason for choosing Heimdal Threat Prevention
too expensive and not available to smaller clients.
Reasons for switching to Heimdal Threat Prevention
BitDefender are rubbish when it comes to support and the product is tired.

Heimdal - Does the job
The install was incredibly straight forward, and we've barely had to touch it since. We use it for ourselves and recommend it to all of our customers.
PROSThe 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.
CONSWe do have the occasional oddity where a program stops working or a port is blocked, and this can be Heimdal being too over protective.
Reason for choosing Heimdal Threat Prevention
If you combine all of the features offered, and the price it would take to purchase all the features differently, it made complete sense. So it was a financial decision.
Reasons for switching to Heimdal Threat Prevention
The features which Heimdal offer, far outweighed ESETs offerings.

AntiVirus and More
PROS
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.
CONSIt is based in another country, and customer support is on different hours.
Reason for choosing Heimdal Threat Prevention
Heimdal had many more options available.
Reasons for switching to Heimdal Threat Prevention
Webroot has no customer service. When we had an issue, I had to read through pages of technical papers online. And the solution was not acceptable.

Peace of mind
Support is second to none - very responsive and helpful. Peace of mind is absolute and the admin overview and ability to remediate remotely is fantastic. It is also built for the work-at-home culture when have settled into after covid.
PROSIt is founded on a deep understanding of the threat landscape and uses all the tools to mitigate that threat.
CONSCan throw up some Java errors on Mac and the interface is a little clunky although a new one is on the way.
Reason for choosing Heimdal Threat Prevention
Same reasons as for ESET - head and shoulders above the alternatives
Reasons for switching to Heimdal Threat Prevention
Admin is simple - support is way better and features are more robust.
