Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The basic features are okay and I'm satisfied with the Defender."
"The two main features that prove most beneficial for us are URL scanning and attachment scanning."
"The risk level notifications are most valuable. We get to know what kind of intrusion or attack is there, and we can fix a problem on time."
"At the moment we are satisfied with this product. It's a stable, scalable, and resilient solution for us."
"The benefit that stands out to me is the ability for multiple individuals to collaborate simultaneously within the same document. Additionally, there is the option to save the document directly in the integrated OneDrive or SharePoint."
"The initial setup is straightforward. You just add the license, click it, and then you can set up the rules. It is quite simple."
"Microsoft Defender has a feature to protect each and every attachment. Even if it's an encrypted attachment, it will check for any potential threats."
"Defender is a SaaS platform, so it offers more flexibility. Managing the permissions is easier. The solution's automated detection and response features are scalable."
"The product provides efficient email security for sending links and file attachments."
"You can use it to monitor third parties and ensure they are not under threat attacks. It is beneficial in the GRC model."
"It just runs in the background. I don't have to worry about, making sure it's Intelligence. So, you know, this kind of makes it very easy, have to worry about installing. It is easy to use."
"I rate the tool's stability a ten out of ten."
"Microsoft collects trillions of signals from all over the world, which is incredibly valuable. It helps us identify zero-day vulnerabilities and global threats."
"It is very scalable. There are approximately 2,000 endpoints and up to 200 servers in our company."
"I value how Threat Intelligence integrates with the different platforms in Microsoft."
"The solution blocks incoming threats on the local PC or any cloud-based threats."
"We are always looking for others tools to increase automation on tasks. There can be better integration with other solutions, such as PowerPoint and email."
"Too many false positives and lacks an accurate capability to detect malicious SharePoint sites."
"One area for improvement is integration. For example, when it comes to external SaaS platforms, we were not able to get a lot of information on integrations with such apps for security and authentication."
"The UI needs to be more user-friendly."
"There is room for improvement with the UI."
"In one of the reports I can get the exact place where a vulnerable file resides. But for that, I need to explicitly go into the device and check. If they could include that file part in the report, without my having to go to the device itself, that would help."
"They can improve their security in a way where a customer can know if all their attachments are safe or not to open through a report. The solution does its job perfectly, but it never reports to the customer whether those attachments have been stopped before or not."
"One area for improvement is support, in terms of being able to reach them and, especially, technical support for configuration."
"I would like to see more integration with other solutions. For example, integration well with Microsoft but not with other solutions."
"I would like for there to be extra confirmation that there aren't viruses. Even if the virus detection software is always running there could be hidden applications that are using the computer."
"The price could be improved."
"Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence is evolving and needs to fix and enhance numerous issues like stability and licensing. The continuous rebranding and licensing changes are confusing."
"The software is expensive."
"It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing structure and make it more affordable."
"The solution could be more stable and precise because, at times, the threats detected are not legitimate."
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved."
