We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"At the moment we are satisfied with this product. It's a stable, scalable, and resilient solution for us.""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 most valuable feature is protection against malicious links, fishing, and impersonation. You can train people to be aware of these threats, but they're not always careful. When they're using their phones between meetings, they click on a link, and it's game over.""Defender is a SaaS platform, so it offers more flexibility. Managing the permissions is easier. The solution's automated detection and response features are scalable.""I would say that 90% of the spam and phishing attack emails get blocked right off the bat.""Our customers are satisfied with Defender for 365 because Microsoft products are easy to use and customize to meet the client's needs. Everything is in one place, so we can adjust policies as needed for phishing, DLP, ATP, or any other security features that our clients want to apply.""The email protection is excellent, especially in terms of anti-phishing policies.""Microsoft Defender for Office 365 has improved my organization's security. It makes it easier to manage the infrastructure without the help of third-party applications."

"I highly recommend this solution to any prospective buyer.""This technology is one of Check Point's acquisitions, and it is currently a powerful tool that provides all the protection that is not found in other tools.""Email inspection has saved many employees from spam attacks and viruses from unauthorized sources.""The integration with all our existing and new applications is great.""Spam protection is the most valuable feature.""Email encryption enhances end to end security of any data before it passes through the networking system.""If we look at four to five years ago, we had close to six or eight people click a link in an email per month. Now, we are probably down to about five or six clicks a year, if not less.""Email Attachment Protection detects any insecure files and quickly blocks them to prevent the spread of viruses to other secure documents."

"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is the simple analysis of phishing emails.""I like that it is very user-friendly and easy to install.""I would rate the solution's stability at ten out of ten.""It can effectively monitor outbound and inbound devices."

Cons
"The phishing and spam filters could use some improvement.""The product must provide better malware detection.""The UI needs to be more user-friendly.""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.""Microsoft Defender for Office 365 must improve the overall management style, including the GUI. It also needs to change the filters so that it is easy to whitelist and blacklist data.""Several simulation options are available within 365, and the phishing simulation could be better.""The company should focus on adding threats that the solution is currently unable to detect.""We are always looking for others tools to increase automation on tasks. There can be better integration with other solutions, such as PowerPoint and email."

More Microsoft Defender for Office 365 Cons →

"They should come up with a mobile application so that it can be more flexible.""The system could be designed to give corporate emails first priority due to demands.""Being cloud first and because we are in the movie business, we use a lot of Macintoshes. So, there is absolutely no reason for us to have Active Directory whatsoever. However, if you are using Office 365, you must have Active Directory in order to reset passwords. Even though we have a single sign-on provider, we must have Azure Active Directory for Office 365, which is really stupid. As a cloud application, you would think that I don't need Active Directory, which I don't need for anything else except Office 365. We have one server inside that space to help us manage Active Directory just for Office 365. This is a very sore point, but it is what it is.""Avanan doesn't cover certain tool segments.""The user experience must be improved.""The customer service team could come up with clear tutorials on how to use this platform to help new teams.""It is complicated for new users unfamiliar with the modern cloud networking infrastructure.""It is very difficult to find the required documentation."

More Avanan Cons →

"Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector could improve by making it easier to use. Microsoft solutions are easier to use.""I would like to be able to send emails to a specific sandbox. This is a feature I would like to see added to the next release.""The product's feature for message processing and blocking devices for bulk emails needs improvement.""It could be more user-friendly, easier to install, and lighter on the network. I would say that for all products because you do not need technical expertise to take care of it. When you have a user-friendly solution, it makes it easier for the vendors or companies like us. We do not have to go to the client's site to attend to issues all the time. Because it is user-friendly, they can take care of it after some training."
