Find out what your peers are saying about CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Wazuh and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."The EDR and the way it automatically responds to ransomware and other attacks are valuable features."
"It's a very scalable tool that can be used in a very small environment or in a very large environment. Everything can be managed from a simple dashboard and can be scaled up or down depending on the customer's environment."
"The most valuable feature is the network security."
"The most valuable feature is probably the aggregation and correlation of the different telemetry points with Defender for Identity, Defender for Endpoint, and Defender for Cloud Apps. All of these various things are part of that portal. We've wanted that single pane of glass for years."
"Scanning, vulnerability reporting, and the dashboard are the most valuable features."
"Microsoft 365 Defender is a good solution and easy to use."
"Advanced hunting is good. I like that. We can drill down to lots of details."
"A crucial aspect for our team is the inclusion of identity and access management tools from the vendor."
"If there are multiple alerts, the app will automatically create and rate an event instead of going through each one."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks should be a stable solution."
"The user interface of the solution is sophisticated and straightforward."
"The integrations are out-of-the-box, as are the playbooks."
"The most valuable feature of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is the low consumption of system resources. The solution uses a lot of AI and machine learning."
"Its ability to react to cyber data attacks is awesome. That is pretty much the use of it. What blows your mind is the ability to access your assets remotely and see what is actually going on with them. You can not only see them in a console. You can also react very rapidly to your assets that are compromised."
"The live terminal is probably the best thing ever. It gives you the access to get straight onto any machine."
"The behavior-based detection feature is valuable."
"It's a complete solution package."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Customers say they want absolutely seamless integration between other Microsoft solutions and Defender XDR, including the ability to change device settings within the Defender portal. They need to contact the IT team responsible for the device management tools to change some settings. They would prefer that those changes be initiated directly from the Defender portal or applied from Intune without involving the IT operations team."
"Microsoft tends to provide too many features, which makes the solution prone to bugs."
"The user interface of Microsoft 365 Defender could improve. They could make it simpler."
"In the future, it would be beneficial for Microsoft to consider making the product more user-friendly or simplified for those who are interested in using it. Currently, it requires a high level of technical expertise, making it challenging for beginners or less experienced individuals."
"The abundance of sub-dashboards and sub-areas within the main dashboard can be confusing, even if it all technically makes sense."
"The solution does not offer a unified response and standard data."
"The web filtering solution needs to be improved because currently, it is very simple."
"The price should be adjustable by region."
"A little bit more automation would be nice."
"The dashboard is the area that needs to improve so that we can have the ability to drill down without having to go elsewhere to verify results."
"Technology evolves every day, so it would be nice if it gets more secure. It can also have more integration with other platforms."
"It's not an ideal choice for smaller businesses, as you need a minimum of 200 endpoints to even use the solution at all."
"The tool needs to be improved in terms of integration and interface."
"Data privacy is a matter of concern. You have to be careful with data privacy, it can be sensitive and Cortex can have most of your access."
"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."
"In reporting they should have a customizable dashboard due to the fact that C-level people don't like reporting to the IT department. They prefer to have a real-time dashboard. That kind of dashboard needs to have various customizations."
"The pricing could be improved."
"We found limitations in the XDR's detections, lacking the ability to create customized detection and log parsing rules."
