It's part of Windows.""A few years ago, when I was using a different product, I was affected by a virus that destroyed everything.

Cons
"The web center in 360 Safeguard could be better, so this is its area for improvement. 360 Safeguard could be more scalable, especially for big businesses.""In 360 Safeguard, there is something called the menu or advanced menu support, a process that I find to be a little bit awkward.""It could be more secure and compatible with other software."

"In terms of improvement, they update the platform it seems quite a bit. Every month something is in a new spot or something changed somewhere. There should be less of that.""The detection of viruses could be a little bit better.""If they integrate with the EDR then it will benefit this solution.""It is inexpensive but could be cheaper like anything else.""Other vendors provide a lot of customization when it comes to integration, which every big organization requires. No big organization depends on one particular tool. Defender lacks that at this point.""Microsoft Defender for Endpoint can improve by providing more and different types of reports.""With regards to the interface, a challenge I found was that there was not enough documentation on how to tune it. I had to read multiple sources on the internet to learn how to configure the tool appropriately.""The biggest issue I had with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint was the antivirus and ransomware. I wanted central visibility over all the machines that we operate."
