We performed a comparison between Bitdefender Sandbox Analyzer and Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Palo Alto Networks, Fortinet and others in Advanced Threat Protection (ATP)."Sandbox Analyzer is easy to use. It's simple to drill down into the data. In a lot of the competing products, an extremely informed end-user can do battle with the tools provided, but in today's market, end-users have less and less time to try and keep up. The CSAW alerts come out every day, and they're huge. Adobe did a master patch last Thursday and another one a few days later."
"I like the fact that it works pretty well. It can be a little aggressive at times, but I'd rather have it be a little bit aggressive than not catch what it's supposed to catch. We've been running that platform for about five years, and we've not really had any viruses or malware get through. It's also easy to set up, and it's easy to manage."
"It is easy to use, and there is a lot of automation. So, users don't need to worry about that."
"The solution is useful in the event of a gray file or grayware, as there are certain files users may download of which we know little about."
"They have a very transparent roadmap for the product."
"The product is useful when the end user downloads malware files."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the insight it provides."
"The global review and remediation of malicious code is probably the most valuable feature."
"The product provides efficient email security for sending links and file attachments."
"It is very scalable. There are approximately 2,000 endpoints and up to 200 servers in our company."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"Microsoft collects trillions of signals from all over the world, which is incredibly valuable. It helps us identify zero-day vulnerabilities and global threats."
"It should be more secure. There should be more protection, especially for non-signature-based malware. It works fine for non-signature-based malware, but I expect it to become a bit more advanced to be able to cope with future or upcoming environments."
"It would be better if there were real-time alerts. The whole suite, unlike most anti-virus consoles that just ping you when there's an infection or something, for some inexplicable reason, Bitdefender doesn't do that. The most you could do is get an hourly email, or maybe if there's an outbreak that affects 30% of our machines, it sends me an email. There's no real-time alert to say, "Hey, so-and-so literally 30 seconds ago just had this happen on their machine." Real-time reporting would be a huge improvement. All in all, it's a pretty nice product, generally speaking. They do a pretty good job. They can pretty much go toe to toe with just about anybody. But it's that kind of real-time nature. I've not had occasion to use the EDR portion to actually try and do any kind of custom scripting to drill into things that are going on at the endpoints. But my understanding from reading comments of others is that it's not particularly flexible in that regard to be able to do things like that."
"It does everything we need. We haven't been able to throw anything at it that it couldn't handle."
"We propose the on-premises solution to most of our customers, for which we must provide a license, although no such request accompanies customers who want a cloud-based solution."
"We would like to see the time it takes for the sandbox to analyze a file reduced from its ten or fifteen minute duration to five."
"One area where Microsoft Defender could be improved is in its support for non-Microsoft products, particularly for systems running Linux or other open-source platforms across ecosystems."
"Technical support could be a bit better."
"It's a bit complicated to manage because you have many dependencies of servers, many dependencies in queue, and so on. Entries or different endpoints, and you make different configuration topics for each one. So that's a major problem."
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved."
"The software is expensive."
"I would like to see more AI features and capabilities."
"The price point is something they can improve slightly for those who don't have an M 365 E5."
"The price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required. In general, the solution's price needs to be reduced."
