    It is well suited especially for users that access or store sensitive/confidential data on their computers. In the case of where users are accessing confidential data over the network, it is highly recommended to use Bitlocker to encrypt the computer. In the case where users are storing confidential data on their computer, it should be a requirement that BitLocker is used/enabled. It would be less appropriate if someone was using a computer and they were not dealing with any sensitive data, or in cases where the computer is used for recreational purposes (browsing the web, playing games, etc).

    Any serious small or large business that is utilizing a mainstream database, purchase ordering system, and web platform should look into this software - especially if you're using softwares compliant with this protector. It really does do an outstanding job of addressing all weaknesses through auditing and vaulting the potential virus concerns.

    Pros
    Microsoft
    • Encrypts the entire drive and provides a high level of security.
    • In an Active Directory environment, you can set up BitLocker to automatically save keys to AD.
    • As part of Windows, no additional licensing costs.
    • Set up and configuration is relatively easy.
    • Uses TPM module to increase security.

    • Error messages are very understandable, providing you are in the loop.
    • The more you [use] it, the more comfortable you feel with the product.
    • It is logical.

    Cons
    Microsoft
    • Even if it's the best we tested, I think write performance could be improved. Maybe with dedicated hardware inside the TPM?
    • No integration with OS password is a shame as most others have it and it is Microsoft on Microsoft so they can probably do it better then anyone else and safer.
    • I wish they would support multiple passwords like FileVault on macOS. If it's a shared computer, you have to give the only password to Bitlocker to both users.

    Not good nor bad, BitLocker encryption is a symptom of our era, we need to protect ourselves and our data, BitLocker is a tool, as an IT we have to deal with it but it doesn't bring any benefit to my daily operations.

    BitLocker Drive Encryption solution offering is cheaper than the one that McAfee offers, it will help you with specific business concerns like "how many encrypted assets do I have?" it's easy to maintain, easy to deploy, and easy to track. It's best suited for companies that are not trying to go far away on the disk encryption matter

    Return on Investment
    Microsoft
    • The biggest positive impact it has on ROI is the cost savings, since there is no cost to using the software.
    • Since it's widely available to anyone with a Windows computer, and the program is built into the operating system, there is no need to really install anything. This helps to save time of the IT department having to do installs, and also keep track of licensing, etc.
