Find out in this report how the two Email Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It also gives me good visibility because, with Defender, I'm using a Microsoft product to defend Microsoft products. The integration was really seamless and I have wide visibility because it picks up almost everything. Literally, I can see almost every activity that happens, from the e-mail to the workstation itself."
"The most valuable feature is the integration. It's a single console, so we don't have to switch around between multiple products. Another valuable feature is the ease of operations and maintenance."
"I would say that 90% of the spam and phishing attack emails get blocked right off the bat."
"It gives us visibility into threats and, for endpoints, it helps us to prioritize threats. We used to have a lack of visibility, but now our time to detect and respond has decreased."
"The product is not resource-intensive."
"The initial setup was easy."
"The technical support is good and quick to resolve issues."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 is a stable solution."
"In general, my company is happy with Microsoft support...My company hasn't faced any stability issues with the solution."
"What I like most about Microsoft Exchange Online Protection is its integration with Windows, so we have one central view for all alerts and incidents."
"We use the solution to receive emails. We do not use the calendar function as our clients are slow adaptors to the latest features."
"The product protects against malware."
"I like the product's ZAP feature."
"It provides security to both on-premises and Azure infrastructures."
"The initial setup was easy. The configuration process is very straightforward."
"We can migrate seamlessly without any disruptions to our operations."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"The solution provides protection with its Email Track Records and Machine Manual features."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 should improve the troubleshooting tools. It's unclear whether the device is blocked at the firewall level or at the device itself. The granularity needed for troubleshooting is currently lacking. From my perspective, Microsoft should address this issue to benefit many users who likely share the same sentiment."
"The pre-sales cost calculations could be more transparent."
"The custom alerts have to improve a lot."
"The visibility for the weaknesses in the system and unauthorized access can be improved."
"The certification training for Defender for 365 needs to be deeper and incorporate Sentinel. I took all the security courses except one, and Sentinel isn't included."
"Microsoft security solutions work as expected. They are constantly updating the solutions to make them better. At the same time, the changes can impact a customer's environment, and we need to adjust settings. Sometimes we aren't aware of the changes, and nothing is pushed from the backend automatically."
"I'd like some additional features any product can give me to protect our environment in a better way."
"They have moved features from one console to another. Things have been moved around in the interface and it takes me time to find where certain features are."
"We would like the solution to have more in-built intelligence in the way that it reviews potential security risks, rather than our team constantly having to update the policies."
"It would be helpful for customers if Plan 1 features were included with EOP."
"The product could be more stable. Microsoft products could be more stable because sometimes, even though they are updating some things, we cannot find those updates."
"It doesn't protect against everything. We do need protection for, for example, endpoints."
"The security compliance features need to be improved. Sometimes, a client's mailbox becomes full because of retained information and not because of mail. I would like to see improvement in block rules as well."
"Microsoft has some training portals, but more could be developed."
"If a company wants to put in line back-to-back anti-spam solutions, they need to work on that part because Microsoft recommends either you use EOP as a front line or you don't use it."
"The price of Microsoft Exchange Online Protection could be reduced to make it more competitive."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"The product's pricing could be more flexible."
