Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, ESET and others in Anti-Malware Tools."It's a good product for us. The reports and notifications are very good for us."
"It has Kusto Query Language (KQL), so we can use our own queries to find anything."
"The antivirus features are very useful."
"It shows us the risky sign-ins, and if a user's password has been compromised."
"It can reach our applications and PC activities in the cloud."
"Offers good protection."
"Defender's analytics are much better than CrowdStrike's."
"The protection that it provides is quite good."
"We found that because the endpoint devices are based on Microsoft Windows devices and Windows Defender is integrated with the foundation and the core layer, it makes it more integrated and more agile in terms of responding to any security threats or changes or development"
"I would like to see in the future is EDR protection and a lower price for F-Secure Total."
"I would like to see fewer pop messages and alerts."
"The documentation could be better. When they update their manuals, sometimes they refer to products by their old names, so it is a little confusing. For example, the documentation might still say "Advanced Threat Protection" instead of Defender for Endpoint."
"Notifications are always popping up — I hate that."
"If there were more template queries in the library, that would make it much easier. They could have basic things, like, "Where's the IP for this user?" or, "What file was downloaded from this user?" If there were more of those basic queries that would help."
"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint could improve by adding more security features."
"The reporting in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint should improve. The solution has limited features."
"Its user interface (UI) can be improved. Currently, in the console, you have to dig down for certain things. They've got many different layers to get to things instead of having it all on the surface. You have to go three folds lower to get to specific functionality or click a particular option. It would be good if we can manage the console through menus and instead of three clicks, we can do things in one click. They need to change the UI and work on it in terms of a better user experience."
"The end-user also cannot do some advanced actions on it. It's a little bit complicated for our end-user, so it needs to be simplified."
