Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, ESET and others in Anti-Malware Tools."We like that it has a free version available."
"It's absolutely free to use."
"We had Norton Antivirus before, and with Norton, we didn't have a way to centrally manage a lot of features. Defender allowed us to deploy it from our Office 365 admin console. That is probably the biggest thing that made us go with Defender."
"The stability keeps getting better and better."
"It has Kusto Query Language (KQL), so we can use our own queries to find anything."
"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 a very solid security system, and the advanced hunting and everything really lets you dive deep into things."
"The solution has an easy-to-use interface, is always updated, and is user-friendly."
"SPAMfighter's best features are the specific quarantine and the website where you can release your spam whitelisting and blacklisting."
"In the next release, I would like to see better management reporting."
"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is effective for validating work, but not ideal for investigations."
"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 price, in general, could always be a little bit cheaper."
"A concern is ransomware, whether people can penetrate and encrypt my data or steal my credit card/banking information."
"I would like to see fewer pop messages and alerts."
"I am not sure if I will be using this product in the future because of the price."
"It makes your Surface devices hot. It is resource-intensive. It strains your CPU, not more than other file scanners around, but it also does a lot more. When you are transmitting files or data, it is continuously scanning the traffic and analyzing it bit by bit to see what's going on, and that, of course, is costly in terms of CPU. It is CPU intensive, and if you are on battery, it drains your battery fast. That's the only drawback that it has."
"SPAMfighter is a little tedious to configure and requires some technical knowledge to understand it."
