Dirfence between Bitdefender Internet Sec 2013 and Bullguard Internet Sec 2013

What are the difference between Bitdefender Internet Security 2013 and Bullguard Internet Security 2013 because the both use the Bitdefender engine , i hope for some good answers.

Greats,

darts

 

Bitdefender Internet Security uses their own Bitdefender Scanning engine and Program Interface

BullGuard Internet Security uses the Bitdefender Scanning Engine also but uses their own Interface + the Outpost Firewall (not sure which Firewall Bitdefender uses)

Think of it this way...

you have 2 v8 Engines, very identical...... you put one of the engines in the body of a BMW car, and the other you put in a Porsche, essentially, their power is very similar

I have used both and I can tell you one thing, stay away from BitDefender, if you must, get BullGuard (although I personally hadn't had good luck with their customer service, the program itself is light and effective)

This thread from the BullGuard forums gives some information regarding your question.

http://forum.bullguard.com/forum/15/Bull-guard-compared-to-bit-def_94162.html

 

The modules/plugins in Bitdefender are developed in-house whereas for Bullguard, the AV engine, firewall and Behaviour Blocker are all out-sourced.

Major differences include;

BitDefender has a specific Safepay/Sandboxed browser for online banking/shopping whereas there is no equivalent in BullGuard at present.
Repair may be better in BitDefender; http://www.av-test.org/en/tests/home-user/windows-7/mayjun-2012/

In contrast, IME, Bullguard is more stable and someone here referred to BullGuard "as BitDefender without the bugs".

IME again, BullGuard support is better and BGIS feels "lighter" than BDIS 2013.

 

Both can be obtained cheaply in retail boxes on ebay, where previous versions can be updated to the recent ones.

So overall there is not much difference between the two suites and your decision may simply come down to which one suits you and your computer(s).

My advice, trial each one and see which one you prefer.

 

any difference in the pricing?

 

BullGuard is much cheaper

Before I had problems with it, I had purchased a license, then renewed it twice to make it a 7 year license since it was as teal! Too bad things didn't work out
