We performed a comparison between Cybereason XDR and Microsoft Defender XDR based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Extended Detection and Response (XDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Cybereason XDR's most useful feature is the investigation."
"The solution has an investigation feature, which is useful for building storylines."
"I have found the ability to delete unwanted threats beneficial."
"I like Defender XDR's automation capabilities. XDR isn't automated by default, but you can automate it to respond. If an attack is performed anywhere within the organization, you can isolate that instance from the network. This is what I can figure out for it. When integrated with Sentinel, you can set up playbooks to automate all the alerts gathered on Sentinel from different Microsoft solutions. Sentinel has a wider range of capabilities than XDR."
"I like how Microsoft XDR and the other Microsoft products are integrated into a single unified security stack covering identity access management, endpoint protection, email, cloud applications, etc."
"The solution is well integrated with applications. It is easy to maintain and administer."
"The ability to integrate and observe a more cohesive narrative across the products is crucial."
"The advantage of Microsoft Defender XDR has over other XDRs in the market is that it's easy to use. You can quickly differentiate between alerts, incidents, devices, software, etc. It's easier to investigate an incident, and you have so many options. You can automate investigations and use playbooks. There's also the live response session, which is something you can't find in any other XDR."
"I like the easy integration and advanced possibilities. We can implement it at customer sites in a few clicks, but we can also dive deep and drill down to extended features. There's a very good starting point to get into this product and all the features from Defender."
"The integration between all the Defender products is the most valuable feature."
"The one thing we sometimes have issues with is its integration with other security applications like antiviruses."
"Cybereason's customer support could be better."
"The capability to not only thwart attacks but also to adapt to evolving threats is crucial."
"The cost can be high if you want to build custom license packages. Another area for improvement is the policies. In Azure, we need to implement policies in JSON format, but in 365 Defender 365, it would be helpful to use a different format so we can customize the platform."
"This solution could be improved if it included features such as those offered by Malwarebytes."
"There are still some components, such as vulnerability management within the vendor product, where improved integration would be beneficial."
"Microsoft 365 Defender does not have a unique package with emerging endpoint security technologies, such as EDR and XDR."
"The solution could improve by having better machine learning and AI. Additionally, the interface, documentation, and integration could be better."
"Support is hit or miss. Microsoft wants you to buy premium support contracts. Though they call themselves professional support, it's almost like throwing questions into a black hole. You get an answer, but it's never helpful."
"The patching capability should be there. Patching is something that you cannot do even though you see the vulnerabilities present in your environment. For patching, you have to depend on another solution."
