Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, ESET and others in Anti-Malware Tools."The solution's most valuable feature is its AI detection algorithm part, which helps and is Cybereason's way of detecting the unknown, not just the signature-based threats."
"It automatically detects intrusion and malware."
"Defender should be fine for home use. It has all the basic functionality you need. I can't speak to how well it works as an enterprise solution because I'm not in the space."
"It's absolutely free to use."
"The solution provides protections and reports about strange behavior and automatically blocks some of it. I love the way that statuses are represented."
"The whole bundle of the product, which is similar to other Microsoft products, is valuable. Ten years ago, you had third-party stuff for different things. You had one solution for email archiving and another third-party one for something else. Nowadays, Microsoft Office covers all the stuff that was formerly covered by third-party solutions. It is the same with antivirus. The functionality is just basic. You have the scanning, and then you also have a kind of cloud-based protection and reporting about your environment. With Microsoft Security Center, you have a complete overview of your environment. You know the software inventory, and you have security recommendations. You can not only see that the antivirus is up to date; you can also see where are the vulnerabilities in your system. Microsoft Security Center tells you where you have old, deprecated software and what kind of CVEs are addressed. It's really cool stuff."
"Technical support has been great."
"The stability keeps getting better and better."
"Offers good protection."
"Integrating other tools is sometimes an issue when using Cybereason Next-Generation Antivirus."
"In terms of improvement, they update the platform it seems quite a bit. Every month something is in a new spot or something changed somewhere. There should be less of that."
"If you have multi-cloud like Google and AWS, the native solutions are better for those particular cases."
"I would like to see improvements made to how it secures activities on web pages."
"The solution needs to improve its ransomware. It's not so good. It could also use some general performance optimization for the computers the solution operates on, to ensure it does not slow down the devices."
"We'd like the stability to be better."
"This solution needs to move beyond relying on virus definitions alone and protect the system using behavioral analysis of the processes that are running."
"The solution could be more friendly for end-users, with different type of scans or scheduled scans for it."
"The product development team makes frequent changes that affect the stability of the solution."
