"This product is flexible, and it is very easy to get updates from the Microsoft website."
"The solution's threat protection is mostly AI and machine-learning based. That is the most important feature of the product. It also offers centralized management so I can remotely manage devices."
"It does not make Windows slow, as compared to all of the third part antiviruses."
"The detection features are valuable, as is the fact that it is easier to port these logs into Sentinel. That is also useful for us. It is more comprehensive."
"We use Microsoft Defender for the antivirus."
"One of the main features is the solution is very light on resources and we do not have any problems with it."
"The visibility into threats that the solution provides is pretty awesome... This is something that makes me think, "Wow, okay. If I had my own organization, I would probably get this too." It stops the threat before an employee gets phished or something gets downloaded to their computer."
"The EDR feature is most valuable."
"I would like to see in the future is EDR protection and a lower price for F-Secure Total."
"Its detection is not as quick. There should also be more frequent updates."
"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is effective for validating work, but not ideal for investigations."
"Microsoft Defender for Endpoint should include better automation that will make it faster to detect the latest threats happening across the world."
"I have accounts for administrators and corporate employees, but I also have accounts for students. I can't split these types of accounts. I need a separate configuration for both... I need to research how I can get alerts for only the administrative machines."
"I would like the solution to be able to prevent unauthorized programs from installing and to block unauthorised URLs which is similar to web filtering product."
"The solution could always be more secure."
"A single dashboard would be a significant improvement."
"It can get a bit laggy sometimes. Other than that, we don't have any issues. They constantly tweak it and fix it up based on users' feedback. It has improved a lot over the past four years. Defender for Endpoint never really used to be a good endpoint security solution, but over the past couple of years, Microsoft has invested heavily in it. So, it has come a long way in all aspects of endpoint security. If they want to make it better, they should just continue investing in the current path of what they've been doing over the past couple of years."
