Find out what your peers are saying about SentinelOne, CrowdStrike, Palo Alto Networks and others in Extended Detection and Response (XDR)."A crucial aspect for our team is the inclusion of identity and access management tools from the vendor."
"The 'Incidents and Alerts' tab is a valuable feature where we can find triggered alerts."
"I like the easy integration and advanced possibilities. We can implement it at customer sites in a few clicks, but we can also dive deep and drill down to extended features. There's a very good starting point to get into this product and all the features from Defender."
"Many people don't realize that Microsoft Azure, Exchange Online, and the security and compliance portal all sync together. For instance, within the Azure portal you can set security restrictions and policies to help secure your tenants... The good part of it is that these products have already been integrated. When you sign on as an admin you have global admin rights and that gives you access to all these features."
"The solution is well integrated with applications. It is easy to maintain and administer."
"It's a great threat intelligence source for us, providing alerts for things it detects on the network and on the machines. We've used it often when there is a potential incident to see what was done on a computer. That works quite nicely because you can see everything that the user has done..."
"I have found the ability to delete unwanted threats beneficial."
"The unified view of the threat landscape on a central dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"I have found Cyber threat intelligence (CTI) very useful and concise. The solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable features of Proofpoint Email Protection are the performance from being on the cloud."
"The solution offers very good flexibility. You can blacklist or whitelist with ease."
"The Phish Alarm button allows users to submit questionable emails for review and complete analysis."
"Proofpoint is the main tool for blocking spam because it denies the connection altogether."
"Provides better control over emails, especially those sent via Office 365 on the cloud."
"The stability is very good."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"I like all the features with Proofpoint, such as how it filters the spam and marketing mail, lost reality mail, blocks phishing attacks, blocks malicious attachments, and stops phishing links. Also it can defend against the business email compromise impersonation technique. It is a complete solution for all email attacks. It filters for the bad, malicious attachments. If there is any executable file, it can be deleted. It is a good, complete solution."
"Correctly updated records are the most significant area for improvement. There have been times when we were notified of a required fix; we would carry out the fix and confirm it but still get the same notification a week later. This seems to be a delay in records being updated and leads to false reporting, which is something that needs to be fixed."
"The data recovery and backup could be improved."
"It would be beneficial to have a more seamless experience with everything consolidated in one place, particularly when dealing with aspects related to the Exchange console."
"My client would like the solution to be more customizable without using code. You can only build on the default console, but we're not allowed to change it."
"The interface could be improved. For example, if you want to do a phishing simulation for your employees, it can take a while to figure out what to do. The interface is a bit messy and could be updated. It isn't too bad, but doing some things can be a long process."
"The dashboard should be easier to use. There is also improvement needed in the reporting when it comes to exporting or scheduling reports."
"The management features could be improved, particularly in terms of better integration with Intune, Microsoft's cloud-based management solution."
"When discussing the secure score, which includes overviews and recommended actions, some of these recommended actions are not applicable to us, particularly those related to Microsoft Internet Explorer, which we do not use in any of our environments."
"A lot of tools can give you many features, such as CTI intelligence and a tax service reduction. However, many people are combining different tools together to have more capabilities. It is up to the consumer whether they want to have multiple tools or have one tool that serves the purpose. Anomali Enterprise could improve by combining all the other tools' features into one solution."
"The email DLP portion could be a bit easier."
"The accessibility of Proofpoint Email Protection, particularly access to product trials, could be improved. It's hard to get a trial for Proofpoint Email Protection, and many customers prefer not just to do the POC or demo but try the product out."
"Unfortunately, the whole product is going downhill right now, ever since they were sold to Thoma Bravo. We're constantly having problems with stability and the product in general."
"Sometimes it detects false positives."
"Proofpoint Email Protection's interface is confusing and could be improved."
"The reporting section could be enhanced. I like some reports but if they could allow us to create custom reports with more flexibility it would enhance the reports more."
"The false positives are an issue."
"Some use cases haven't been dealt with yet."
