Defender is an light day to day useful tool, which is unnoticed while scanning as it not consume much resources.

Pricing as it a bit high, although it is easy to use but there too many things to locate that is not easy, also customer support is not that good Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that Microsoft Defender XDR can be integrated with the Microsoft Office system. It automatically detects threats including mails and cloud services and the overall security of our device. It is easy to use and has available customer support anytime. You can use it round the clock 24/7 to protect your device. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Like any advanced threat detection system, Microsoft Defender XDR occasionally generate false positives even if it is just my file that I don't think is infected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The real-time features are easy to use. It is better against malware & runs smoothly in the background without any noticeable changes in the functioning. It fixes almost all threats. It's the only software I use for protection & so far I never felt any need to buy additional virus protection. It is regularly updated by Microsoft. It can detect vulnerabilities in the cloud environment. It sends alerts promptly and awares you of any potential threats. It works on machine learning and AI and saves a lot of time and efforts.

Microsoft can add more lite features to this software. Rest it is a good software & there is hardly anything to dislike about. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i just loved how microsoft stands exceptional in providing user friendly robust features with such an ease to the customer, its Real-time response is reall, i loved the way its threat intelligence works and its ease of implementation and integration with 365 have raised its frequency of use as my daily digital life saviour.

No doubt a premium security needs hardware to run but as my systems are little old thus i hope microsoft can make it to use even less resources otherwise its a great tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I appreciate the comprehensive coverage that Microsoft Defender XDR provides for our organization's devices and networks. It not only detects and responds to known threats, but also uses advanced analytics and machine learning to detect and respond to new and emerging threats in real-time. This gives me peace of mind knowing that our systems are constantly monitored and protected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is a difficult question to answer as there are many features of Microsoft Defender XDR that I dislike. However, one of the main concerns I have is the lack of customization options. Many of the settings are pre-defined and cannot be changed, making it difficult to tailor the program to fit specific needs. Additionally, the user interface can be confusing and overwhelming for those who are not as tech-savvy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Microsoft Defender XDR provides a Cross-Platform Protectio. It offers protection not only for traditional endpoints (Windows PCs) but also extends its coverage to other platforms, including macOS, Linux, and mobile devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
false positive alerts are frequently observed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The custom alerts that I get immediately while scanning a 3rd party file. Reporting a phishing mail at your fingertips. This enables our security team to enable better security policies against threats/viruses. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes the alerts will be annoying when you are literally up for a busy day of activities. The application of security patches can also be made available across Mac os platforms as well. While the system is started the alerts gets piled up which sometimes slows up the machine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Microsoft 365 Defender offers a wide range of integration capabilities. You can integrate this tool with all other Microsoft solutions you have in your environment and they all can work harmoniously and seamlessly.
Features like Advanced threat intelligence and automated threat detection and response are brilliantly designed so that they rarely fail.
I used MD XDR for 2 years and I always felt it was a reliable and easy to use security solution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
As always, it is the customer support and the turnaround time from Microsoft. I strongly feel that Microsoft should work on the technical support part and increase the resources to provide a better customer experience. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are many actually, but I personally like the protection against malicious URLs, & how this feature is embedded to microsoft teams & other Microsoft 365 products like MS Outlook, to defend against Malicious URLs & phishing attacks.
The best thing about this feature is, you never realise that its there, whenever you click on some url that is being shared on MS Teams or MS outlook, it automatically verifies the URL, before redirecting to the actual URL. Thats best. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I haven't seen any downside of Microsoft 365 Defender as such but the most less used feature for me would be query based hunting. I personally never used to for any data churning for any incident. But having said that it doesn't mean its not useful, I am sure person responsible for finding Root Cause Analysis must be using it heavily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
