Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, CrowdStrike and others in Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP).
"The comprehensiveness of Microsoft's threat detection is good."
"The most valuable feature of all is the full integration with the rest of the software in the operating system and Office 365, as well as Microsoft SCCM. It is quite easy for us to work with the whole instance of Microsoft products. This integration improves the benefits of the whole suite of products."
"The EDR and the way it automatically responds to ransomware and other attacks are valuable features."
"From the perspective of Microsoft 365 XDR, the main benefit is a single, centralized dashboard offering the holistic visibility organizations crave."
"It provides a single pane of glass within the 365 admin interface, streamlining our experience by consolidating information in one place and eliminating the need to navigate through multiple interfaces."
"The threat intelligence is excellent."
"Another noteworthy feature that I find appealing in Microsoft Defender is the credit-backed simulation. This feature enables organizations to train their users on effectively responding to phishing emails through a simulated training environment."
"Within advanced threat hunting, the tables that have already been defined by Microsoft are helpful. In the advanced threat hunting tab, there were different tables, and one of the tables was related to device info, device alert, and device events. That was very helpful. Another feature that I liked but didn't have access to was deep analysis."
"Its integration capability is valuable. It integrates easily with any OS."
"Everything is automatic. I install the sensor and renew the service. Periodically, I get a notice that they've shut something down."
"We have seen a reduction to the performance hit to our operating systems."
"CrowdStrike Falcon has done an excellent job at detecting breaches. It has allowed us to stay in business and keep our systems up."
"The most valuable feature is the indicator of compromise, which show you what file was either quarantined or removed."
"The solution is silent and sits on your system as one single agent."
"The most valuable features in CrowdStrike Falcon are the full EDR with antivirus, hunting, reporting, and RTR remote control."
"We are now able to find the root cause analysis on any threat. We can figure out where the issue came in versus just dealing with where it is at the moment."
"They have multiple great features."
"The licensing is a nightmare and has room for improvement."
"I'd like to see a wider solution that includes not only desktop devices but also other devices, such as servers, storage cabinets, switching equipment, et cetera."
"When discussing the secure score, which includes overviews and recommended actions, some of these recommended actions are not applicable to us, particularly those related to Microsoft Internet Explorer, which we do not use in any of our environments."
"Defender XDR could provide recommendations for threat-hunting queries. Some people do not know how to write an advanced threat query, so we need to spend time training them."
"Support is hit or miss. Microsoft wants you to buy premium support contracts. Though they call themselves professional support, it's almost like throwing questions into a black hole. You get an answer, but it's never helpful."
"Since all of our databases are updated and located in the cloud, I would like additional support for this."
"The data recovery and backup could be improved."
"The only issue I've had is, when it comes to deployment, the steps I must take around policy setup. That is challenging."
"We'd like to see more integration capabilities."
"I think there's an opportunity to enhance the AI or at least the traps to say, if something changes from this baseline, let us know and flag it."
"CrowdStrike should provide better visibility in its reporting. There should be more forensic details about detected threats."
"A year and a half ago or more, if you put in a support request by email, then it wasn't timely addressed. It could be a day to three days before you received a response, which was a bit frustrating. There was a lot of customer feedback around this issue, which has been greatly refined."
"CrowdStrike Falcon could improve by adding manual scanning or serverless scanning. It is not available at this time."
"There is room for improvement in managing multiple customer IDs."
"I would also like to see the endpoint firewall component produce some level of logging and feedback."
"They respond quickly on the weekdays, but the weekend response times are slower."
"We end up facing a lot of issues after upgrades."
