GravityZone Mobile Client application brings your device into the Bitdefender GravityZone, the Bitdefender Enterprise security solution. Security for Mobile Devices module has been designed to reduce administrative burden of managing and controlling compliance of mobile devices, even for the most demanding enterprises. The security module for mobiles is part of a scalable, unified security solution under one umbrella for physical, virtualized and mobile environments. Choosing the right tools to manage mobile device compliancy Each organization sets their own policies for acceptable mobile devices that are allowed to be connected into organization's internal resources and services according to corporate, departmental or individual security requirements. However, enforcing those policies require the right tools to be in place. While many specialized Mobile Device Management (MDM) products may provide a spot solution, Bitdefender helps Enterprises with more holistic security approach that protects not only mobile devices, but also physical endpoints and virtualized environments. As an Active Directory integrated solution it helps Enterprises to easily manage all users’ devices with consistent policies with actions to be taken in case the device becomes non-compliant, like preventing non-compliant devices accessing corporate services. The solution has been designed to support controlled adoption of the bring-your-own-device (BYOD) concept by enforcing security policies consistently on all users’ devices. Security features include screen lock, authentication control, device location, remote wipe, detection of rooted or jailbroken devices and security profiles. Features & Benefits - Easy management through a centralized web-based console - Simple deployment integrated with Active Directory user groups - Application and updates delivered via marketplace - Simple device self-registration by scanning a QR code - Removes the need of users to visit IT helpdesk due to easy self-setup - Ensures consistent security policies on all user's devices - Allows enterprise-wide policies to be applied on jailbroken devices - Prevents non-compliant devices accessing corporate services - Controls device screen lock and authentication for effective device protection - Adapts into security needs of both professional and personal life (with profiles) - Simplifies management of VPN and Wi-Fi access point settings - Locate device on map (from network inventory) to find lost devices - Lock / unlock / wipe prevents usage of lost devices and data leakage

Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: GravityZone Mobile Client at 2.0 against N's 1.2. GravityZone Mobile Client also leads on iOS requirement (8.1 vs 13.0). N's advantage is review sentiment (21% vs 0%) and update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 5 months). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
GravityZone Mobile Client holds the better App Store score, 2.0 against 1.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: N has 33 ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 21% of N's written reviews are positive against 0% of GravityZone Mobile Client's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
N ships an update every 6 weeks, GravityZone Mobile Client every 5 months. The most recent releases landed on October 22, 2026 and September 28, 2026 respectively.
