"I like the solution's adaptive inspection and container inspection."
"The tool is managed from the cloud, because of which the maintenance is very low."
"I rate the tool's stability a ten out of ten."
"It just runs in the background. I don't have to worry about, making sure it's Intelligence. So, you know, this kind of makes it very easy, have to worry about installing. It is easy to use."
"You can use it to monitor third parties and ensure they are not under threat attacks. It is beneficial in the GRC model."

"I would like to see the workflow, to get all the rules and policies set up, be less complicated."
"When considering potential areas for improvement, it may be beneficial for Digital Guardian to optimize its processes and reduce the computational demands on the system, particularly with regard to high CPU usage. Although Digital Guardian offers numerous benefits, it can consume a substantial amount of RAM and CPU power."
"It would be helpful if there was an on-premise version of the solution for companies that cannot use the cloud, such as government sectors."

"Some features on Mac and Linux are not complete currently. For example, some device control features haven't been transferred over to the other systems.

Having the solution fully capable of handling everything in a Mac environment is crucial."
"If the client uses Windows 10 or 11 and Microsoft updates the operating system's version, Digital Guardian must update their product to match compatibility."
"Having up-to-date documentation and real-time reflections in all portals would be beneficial to keep users informed about any changes. Additionally, the frequent changes in Microsoft's UI and the movement of features between different products in the set pose difficulties."
"There could be AI functionality included for features like reporting and dashboard preparation."
"One area that can be improved is reducing false positives."

"The solution could be more stable and precise because, at times, the threats detected are not legitimate."
"Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence should integrate with different platforms."
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved."
