Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, SentinelOne, ESET and others in Anti-Malware Tools."One of the features which differentiates it from other EDR providers is the Automated Investigation and Response, which reduces the workload of SOC analysts or engineers. They don't have to manually investigate each and every alert on the endpoint, since it does so automatically. And you can automate the investigation part."
"Microsoft Defender is always running. It is doing its job, so it is fine. I don't have any issues with the way it was implemented or how we are running it. We have been upgrading IT throughout the years, but there have been no issues."
"It is quite stable. We have not had any cases, i.e., viruses, that would require a reboot, etc. We have never had a situation where we needed to reinstall the tools as a result of the Defender application or a feature being corrupt."
"It's free. There is no additional cost. It's part of Windows."
"The solution has good performance, I have not seen a problem."
"It is a very advanced system based on AI. It has a very large database of places or sites on the internet where you should not go. It is continuously online."
"The solution's threat protection is mostly AI and machine-learning based. That is the most important feature of the product. It also offers centralized management so I can remotely manage devices."
"The best thing I like about it is its interaction with the other Defender products. It provides the ability to push telemetry up. It gives me endpoint visibility and allows me to take automated actions."
"Seqrite Antivirus is an easy-to-use solution."
"We need better support to learn about the product. Documentation is available, but we need some kind of training program so that we can get a better understanding of the product."
"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."
"The scalability could be improved - I would rate it between a seven and an eight."
"I would just like them to have more consistency, and that's a comment that's across the board with Microsoft. They change things a lot."
"The system can always be simplified and have a better integration check. More detailed reports would be good. When it does the integrated check, it just shows if the system is okay but I want to know what happened."
"Additional security would be beneficial."
"The product itself does not necessarily need improvement, but the support and implementation of the product are the disaster cases."
"The automation could be simpler on the mitigation side. It has a learning curve. Otherwise, it's pretty easy."
"The solution needs improvement in stability."
