Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Makes my inbox cleaner and more secure. The infomail is now neatly out of my view and I dont see all the junk I use to see when using AppRiver or just Microsofts native spam filter. I see only the things I need to see, and spoofed messages have decreased 100% throughout the organization."

"What I like most is the protection against phishing emails and anti-spam.""It's great for investigating what's happening on a machine. They show a whole bunch of machine timeline events that are related to a security incident. They have quite good details on the things related to threat and vulnerability management, such as any weakness that has been disclosed publicly, assets that are exposed, and if there is an exploit active in the wild for that vulnerability. It can provide you with all such information, which is cool.""It's free. There is no additional cost. It's part of Windows.""This product is flexible, and it is very easy to get updates from the Microsoft website.""It's pretty easy to scale.""It is stable and very easy to use.""Its simplicity is the most valuable. It also has very good integration. We like it.""We can react to threats faster and stop them from spreading from one machine to another. It protects from suspicious email attachment downloads. It will lock down the SOC and the workstations."

Cons
"If I had to pick my least favorite thing, I would say some of the tabs to control settings can get a little overwhelming. It can also be a little hard to read the font at certain times so possibly enlarging the details and text of the site a little to make it not so "fit" to the screen."

"If the solution could be integrated more with Defender for Cloud, to be more unified, that would help. It is good now, but even more integration could be done with Defender for Cloud. We see two different portals. If Defender for Endpoint could be ported to the CSPM, Defender for Cloud, that would make things even easier for us.""There are alternative solutions that offer a greater range of dashboard insights when compared to Microsoft Defender for Endpoint.""The initial setup can be a bit complex.""I would like to see better integration with their other security products to give better visibility from a higher level.""The solution could improve by providing more integration.""The integration and effectiveness of email security could be better. It's already built-in to the solution and checks emails, scans the links they contain etc.""Integrating this with third-party systems has some complexity involved.""It is inexpensive but could be cheaper like anything else."
