Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"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.""Defender for Office 365 has helped eliminate having to look at multiple dashboards and that is the aspect I like most about it. It is simpler, effective, and convenient. The users like the process efficiency.""The solution is very easy to use. All you have to do is to assign the license to the end-user and it's done. The customer will only have the feature activated, and the solution will monitor the emails to determine if they are a threat or not.""The benefit that stands out to me is the ability for multiple individuals to collaborate simultaneously within the same document. Additionally, there is the option to save the document directly in the integrated OneDrive or SharePoint.""Since we have started using the solution, there have been fewer compromises.""Threat Explorer is an invaluable tool for me, and it plays a crucial role in helping me discern the origins of various email campaigns, pinpointing where they emanate from, and identifying the individuals within our organization who are affected.""Some of the valuable features on the email side are anti-phishing, anti-malware, and Safe Links.""I would say that 90% of the spam and phishing attack emails get blocked right off the bat."

"We are close to having 99% or 98% detection.""The most valuable features are the precision of detection and the level of customization of the policy."

More ESET Cloud Apps Protection Pros →

"The feature I found most valuable was getting details on the emails, being alerted once those emails got a bad reputation, and then being able to take action on those emails."

More Retarus Email Security Pros →

Cons
"The phishing and spam filters could use some improvement.""The custom alerts have to improve a lot.""We need to be able to whitelist data at the backend.""Microsoft wants its well-paying customers to finish testing some of its half-baked products, find bugs, and report bugs back to Microsoft's team, which is a little frustrating for those who have to manage it and roll it up to thousands of people across the organization.""Microsoft Defender for Office 365 should be more proactive.""We noticed that from time to time, Microsoft's stability does have problems. Sometimes the service goes up and down. Sometimes they change without prior notice.""Too many false positives and lacks an accurate capability to detect malicious SharePoint sites.""In one of the reports I can get the exact place where a vulnerable file resides. But for that, I need to explicitly go into the device and check. If they could include that file part in the report, without my having to go to the device itself, that would help."

More Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Cons →

"It's not easy for an admin to check and decide if the email is good or not.""The specific domain file for Apache needs to be well-defined."

More ESET Cloud Apps Protection Cons →

"This solution needs to improve the area of GUI as well as dashboards because they are very poor in terms of the current email security solution."
