Our verdict
Bitdefender GravityZone is our top pick for SMB endpoint security. It delivers the best detection rates we've seen in this price range, the ransomware rollback feature is genuinely valuable, and the GravityZone Control Center makes managing a fleet of devices straightforward even without a dedicated IT team. The only caveat: if you're running older hardware, ESET's lighter footprint may serve you better.
