Find out what your peers are saying about CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, Wazuh and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."We are connected to Microsoft and have every laptop enrolled.

"The portal is quite user-friendly. There is integration with Office, Intune, and other products from the same portal. From there, we can see which policies are installed on a particular machine. We also can manage devices, groups, and tagging."
"The most valuable features of Microsoft 365 Defender are the combination of all the capabilities and centralized management."

"Automated playbooks and automated dashboards would be preferable to the way the data is currently being presented."

"While the XDR platform offers valuable functionalities, it falls short of other solutions in its ability to deliver a cohesive identity experience."
