Microsoft Defender has built in features which help in protecting the device against Malwares.
Easy to understand, timely notifications and updates help in keeping the device up to date. Security tips is a unique feature which helps in safeguarding the machine. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sometimes it refrains the user from redirecting to a website and shows a informatory popup. That feels a bit annoying.
Safe link protection against phishing is an annoying feature. 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 Defender security scoring to keep overall protection informed is a cool feature and it recurring assessment to give a complete overview of vulnerability is very helpful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Defenders' occasional security alarm triggering feature without any reason is complicating operations internally. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
easy onboarding of endpoint devices. Since the product is fro m Microsoft and the OS are from microsoft mostly as well, onboarding is very quick and very easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their third party integration or support with third party applications. For example, if you want to deploy it to all the workstations, they will push you to purchase intune...if you already have any other solution for deployments then you have to figure it out yourself.

The security and the multiple features you will get to use . Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
m365 i like the most in the market but for defender I would say that they should improve there internet browser security like click jacking and all. 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.
The best platform for enhancing the cloud platforms' overall security and ease of integration with other Microsoft platforms such as Azure very smoothly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their licencing model was very complicated and confusing and couldn't decide on what to opt for. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Their extensive monitoring features and automated assessment scans create a hardline defence for all our company's cloud apps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
There are downtimes occurring, which can be reduced. Which is what I dislike. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Defender for Endpoint is a top product with very good detections rates and integration with the other Defender products. The KQL capabilities that are built in are very good and powerfull. The Defender portal by itself is very rich on information, gives the right insights and helps you investigating your incidents and alerts. Microsoft is very helpful and develops new functionalities at a fast pace. Especially the network integration and device discovery features are very good. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The licensing part of Defender for Endpoint can be a bit confusing. There are many options and pricing tiers that are not always very clear when you start planning your deployment. Especially for Server workloads you have to make sure that you catch all the exceptions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is its simple and intuitive interface. I don't need to be a cybersecurity expert to use the product effectively. The dashboard gives me a quick overview of potential threats and vulnerabilities across all my endpoints. I can easily see which devices need attention and take appropriate action. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I find the tool lacks granular control over data access. It takes an overly broad approach to restricting access to sensitive data and systems. The policies it implements are too coarse and can end up blocking access for legitimate users and use cases. It also does not provide an easy way to create exceptions and override the default rules. The reporting and auditing features are basic. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
