Bitdefender Clunky Protection
Bitdefender Agent Disappears after 10 days during my 30 days free trial. I do not understand why there is a seperate application for that. Anyway, Bitdefender protection is on and working normally but the agent is no longer in the system tray (it's been 3 Days now idk he quit maybe). Bitdefender uses over 600MB of your RAM (check task manager for yourself).... That is incomprehensible seeing that the software advertises Machine Learning and Cloud detection. Bitdefender has a HUGE IMPACT on your computer's performance. Not lightweight at all. Features nobody uses: Safe Pay. Problems: -with Web and Audio protection via Skype. Even if you have enabled camera and with notify only for mic, screen share does not work (disabling everything in Bitdefender fixed the problem) -Anti tracker blocks different things on Edge and Firefox (blocks less, hence not working properly). -One click optimiser always facing problems deleting some files because it is in use or whatever rather than just deleting them and stopping all services that are using them or give the user the option to do so rather than being a waste of time. Confusion: putting cryptomining protection behind a paywall (only for total protection and up) which does not make sense since you advertise to protect against "all malware". It should be available in all the products. Price: Pocket drainer. Bitdefender VPN seperate app automatically installed rather than giving the user the option. Again with the seperate apps in the software industry that I just do not understand. Randomly changed the update interval from 1h to 12 hour by itself. creepy. -Anti-Tracker Extension: Superb -Firewall: normal average, does not have more features than windows firewall besides Port Scan Protection. That's it. -Virus protection: Pretty good Conlusion: Not recommended. Disappointed.
