I have to say I'm not a big fan of Bitdefender. I paid for a year's subscription for my server and PCs and am not at all satisfied. When I installed it on my server, I experienced the same problem with RDC which has been described – I was ok since i have a home built but I'd have been really pissed if i had a commercial server and had to rebuild (unacceptable!). The performance was severely degraded on my server after installation – from ~50MB/sec to ~12MB/sec for file copies to the server. I also experienced random crashes (Bitdefender services not responding) on my PCs on a frequent basis. The network management features have never worked properly.

I've started switching my network over to Avast which is much less feature rich but at least it's stable and the there is little performance hit on the WHS.

Just my $0.02…

Bitdefender,

Wanted to thank you guys for offering up the product and allowing Dave to discuss on your show. No plenty of friends who are always looking for alternatives to ancient players in the protection market.

Love the show, always looking and listening for items after listening to the Podcast.

Wandering about the bitdefender and the giveaway. I am interested.

Have a frankenbuild, 3.55 Tb of data, putting all movies, music and family photos for the future on the WHS.

Request that you do a show on frankenbuilds….

Thanks.
