Heimdal bundles antivirus, DNS filtering and a SOC into a platform, sold as modules. No prices are published and the site points buyers to a pricing request form. The pages read list no endpoint operating systems. - **Value for money: C.** No price is published, so there is nothing to set against this category's $2.58 to $6.50 a month; the listing says it is by quote. The site points to a pricing request form. - **Free plan and trial: D.** A trial sign-up and a demo are offered but trial terms were not stated on the pages read. - **Features: C.** Antivirus, DNS filtering and SOC services, sold separately and in bundles, so the cost and the job depend on the mix chosen. - **Ease of use: C.** Business product with a console and agents to roll out; no store rating is on record and the listing shows setup work, so it sits at the ordinary grade. - **Platforms and integrations: B.** A web console with ConnectWise RMM, Autotask PSA, HaloPSA, Cisco Meraki and Palo Alto integrations. No operating systems or phone apps are listed. These are ToolGPA's own grades. Graded from this listing, whose facts were read from Heimdal's own pages on 13 November 2026. Not based on using the product, and shorter than our full reviews. ## Where it stands among antivirus apps - Heimdal's GPA of 2.0 is higher than 14 of the 56 other antivirus apps we grade, and level with 11. - It stands best on platforms and integrations (B, above 21 of 56) and worst on free plan and trial (D, above 12). The category's chart of price against score: https://toolgpa.com/charts/antivirus ## Keep it, or make your own? **Keep it.** To replace Heimdal you would be making an engine that recognises new malware as it appears. That is not a weekend's work, with an AI app builder or without one. That makes this kind of software worth paying for, not this one in particular: 31 of the 56 other antivirus apps grade higher. - You could make: Reports: an app builder makes this well. - You could not: An engine that recognises new malware as it appears. - You could not: It plugs into other products, ConnectWise RMM, Autotask PSA and HaloPSA among them. - You could not: AI features, unless you pay a model provider for each request yourself. A judgement by ToolGPA from this listing, by rules that are the same for every tool. Nothing was built to test it. ## Works with ConnectWise RMM, Autotask PSA, HaloPSA, Cisco Meraki Firewall, Palo Alto **Tags:** Malware protection, AI features, Reports ## Alternatives - [ThreatLocker](https://toolgpa.com/tools/threatlocker): Zero trust endpoint control: allowlisting and ringfencing.
