We performed a comparison between Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence and Microsoft Purview Data Governance based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Microsoft Security Suite solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The technical support services are excellent."
"They have a very transparent roadmap for the product."
"The user interface is pretty user-friendly."
"You can use it to monitor third parties and ensure they are not under threat attacks. It is beneficial in the GRC model."
"It is very scalable. There are approximately 2,000 endpoints and up to 200 servers in our company."
"Microsoft collects trillions of signals from all over the world, which is incredibly valuable. It helps us identify zero-day vulnerabilities and global threats."
"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."
"The most significant value lies in its seamless integration into the Azure ecosystem, automating various processes and reducing operational burdens."
"It is designed to seamlessly connect to various data sources, which is particularly beneficial for our customers who primarily use Microsoft technologies."
"The availability of pre-designed policies tailored to specific geolocations and customer requirements is a valuable feature."
"I think Purview does as good a job...I'll say that it is as stable as the data governance maturity that exists within an organization. It can't be more stable than that."
"The best part is that I can create classifications per my requirements. I use it to classify multiple platforms like AWS, GCP, Azure, and different file sharing systems."
"The labeling is the most valuable feature for the companies I'm installing it for. Some of them have several thousand staff, and their concerns are around confidential or private data being shared. The labels and the policies involved with them give them that initial visibility."
"The documentation is very exhaustive. Anyone can go ahead and try different use cases."
"The data classification part of the solution is excellent, especially as it gives us an insight into our sensitive data within Microsoft 365."
"It's a bit complicated to manage because you have many dependencies of servers, many dependencies in queue, and so on. Entries or different endpoints, and you make different configuration topics for each one. So that's a major problem."
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved."
"It takes time for the support team to understand the issue, and they then respond with a delay at times, which causes a lot of trouble."
"The price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required. In general, the solution's price needs to be reduced."
"We encounter problems connecting the product deployed on the user endpoints with the servers."
"The software is expensive."
"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."
"Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence should integrate with different platforms."
"Privacy features should be integrated into the core product rather than offered as optional add-ons, as privacy is not a luxury but a fundamental requirement."
"Although you can explore the data, that creates a great interest in data lineage or the data flow. How does it go from a source to a platform to a Power BI report, for example? It is possible, to some extent, to see that with Purview, but the lineage feature requires some manual work on the development side or more work from Microsoft to improve on it."
"I have some concerns about the separation of roles in Purview from the Microsoft tenant, as well as how they interact with the security portal and endpoint manager."
"One area for improvement is the detection of data types. This is really important. It has some of that functionality, but I consider it very limited. Maybe they can add some custom programming or machine learning could be particularly useful for the detection of the nature of the data."
"The custom data classification for the African region needs to be improved."
"One drawback of Microsoft Purview, though it's beneficial and easy to use, is that when you start plugging in connectors for third-party sources when setting the solution up for data collection, it becomes a bit more tricky."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"he one thing it doesn't do is data quality."
