I am mesmerised by the innovations above. I guess it’s taken a lot of thinking outside the box to achieve them.

I have tested GData against some samples, it seems that BEAST is not that effective..

GData is really an effective product in my opinion but still I'd pick Kaspersky over it in terms of protection. So I think there is no point for u to switch anyway.

G-Data is easily A-tier for me, or maybe even S-tier on its good days, but it's downsides are the interface, performance(RAM usage), ransomware protection not so consistent(didn't test it recently, so it may be optimal atm).

I use G-Data for a month now and its firewall comes quite close to Outpost and better in some ways. I miss one feature though, for which I already contacted support. It would be great if a single firewall rule would allow for more than one ip address/range. Currently, I use different rules of the same type for the same application/process, just to cover different ip-addresses/ranges.

 

[Zartarra]

G-Data has a great firewall but indeed it missed some features.

I really like the idea how Microsoft Firewall works with exe's and and services. G-Data does not support that kind of rules.

For example svchost.exe is used by lots of programs. I can block all connections made by C:\windows\system32\svchost.exe and only allow my custom rules (comination of exe and servicename) as for Windows updates, Cryptograpic services, NTP, DNS, DHCP. Lots of homefirewall are missing this option.
