The solution's unified portal is essential for managing and providing visibility across our hybrid and multi-cloud environments
We use Microsoft Defender for Cloud to natively support Azure Cloud. Microsoft Defender for Cloud's ability to protect our hybrid environments is definitely critical because we are on the journey of transitioning from hybrid to the cloud. In order to do that, we need a platform that can help us through the transition. The solution's unified portal is essential for managing and providing visibility across our hybrid and multi-cloud environments. Visibility is something that every security operation needs and it gives us leverage to improve our security posture. This is great. The single pane of glass view is critical for our organization. This is because we previously used a different platform, so we are all familiar with its features and how to improve upon them. Our heavy investment in Microsoft products made Defender for Cloud a natural choice. Our goal is to increase our secure score. As we take steps to mitigate risk, our secure score will increase, giving us the feeling that our cloud resources are secure. Microsoft Defender for Cloud significantly improves security operations. Instead of having to look at multiple windows or portals, it provides a single pane of glass for the investigation and remediation of cloud resource risks. Microsoft Defender for Cloud helps us proactively discover unknown threats and defend against known threats. It also helps us improve our security posture and defend our cloud resources. We do not normally have external Internet-facing resources, but when we do, Microsoft Defender for Cloud helps us meet compliance requirements.

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"It is bundled with our enterprise subscription, which makes it easy to go for it. It is available by default, and there is no extra cost for using the standard features."
"There is a helpful cost-reducing option that allows you to integrate production subscriptions with non-production subscriptions."
"I am not involved much with the pricing but the bundle offering is good."
"This solution is more cost-effective than some competing products. My understanding is that it is based on the number of integrations that you have, so if you have fewer subscriptions then you pay less for the service."
"This is a worldwide service and depending on the country, there will be different prices."
"Azure Defender is definitely pricey, but their competitors cost about the same. For example, a Palo Alto solution is the same price per endpoint, but the ground strikes cost a bit more than Azure Defender. Still, it's pricey for a company like ours. Maybe well-established organizations can afford it, but it might be too costly for a startup."
"Its pricing is a little bit high in terms of Azure Security Center, but the good thing is that we don't need to maintain and deploy it. So, while the pricing is high, it is native to Azure which is why we prefer using this tool."
"There are improvements that have to be made to the licensing. Currently, for servers, it has to be done by grouping the servers on a single subscription... We don't have an option whereby, if all those resources are in one subscription, we can have each of the individual servers subject to different planning."
