Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, ESET and others in Anti-Malware Tools."I like the process visibility. This ability to visualize how something was executed is valuable, and the fact that Defender ATP is also linked to the threat intelligence that they have is also valuable. So, even if you have something that doesn't have a conventional signature, the fact that you get this strange execution means that you can detect things that are normally not visible."
"We found that because the endpoint devices are based on Microsoft Windows devices and Windows Defender is integrated with the foundation and the core layer, it makes it more integrated and more agile in terms of responding to any security threats or changes or development"
"The patch updates and version updates are very good. Those happen on an automated basis whenever I'm connecting to the organization network, either through LAN or through the VPN."
"The solution's latest features for threat analysis are updated to provide us with future protection against the latest threats worldwide."
"The best thing I like about it is its interaction with the other Defender products. It provides the ability to push telemetry up. It gives me endpoint visibility and allows me to take automated actions."
"I like the fact that it has the ransomware solution in there. I'm glad that the ransomware solution is built into it. That's probably the biggest thing that I see in Microsoft Defender."
"We have very good visibility on our endpoints. The level of information it throws back is helpful."
"This is not an inventory solution, but it helps you take count of how many workstations you have, as well as what software is installed on each of them."
"SPAMfighter's best features are the specific quarantine and the website where you can release your spam whitelisting and blacklisting."
"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint does not offer default templates for alerts, requiring us to configure everything ourselves to avoid numerous false positives."
"On the Mac OS platform, there is no parity between Windows and Mac OS. The solution is very feature-rich and very well-integrated into Windows, and I guess baked into Windows 10 and Windows 11. Whereas, on the Mac OS platform, there is still some work there to give it a more feature-reach platform."
"The GUI is very complex and could be more user friendly."
"In terms of the architecture of the management infrastructure, we found that other technologies are more simple. Microsoft Defender could be simpler too."
"Microsoft Defender could be improved with features more like the McAfee ePO. It would be better if I had a console to get all the information for my endpoints. Maybe this is too much for it, but it would be better if it could handle those non-signature-based malicious codes or viruses."
"The reporting in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint should improve. The solution has limited features."
"It is inexpensive but could be cheaper like anything else."
"Threat intelligence has the potential for improvement, particularly by integrating more sources."
"SPAMfighter is a little tedious to configure and requires some technical knowledge to understand it."
