Pros
"The product’s most valuable feature is the ability to provide threat detection and protection simultaneously.""It just runs in the background.

It is easy to use.""Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence assesses machines for vulnerabilities and gives remediations.""Microsoft collects trillions of signals from all over the world, which is incredibly valuable. It helps us identify zero-day vulnerabilities and global threats.""The technical support services are excellent.""The product is useful when the end user downloads malware files.""They have a very transparent roadmap for the product.""I rate the tool's stability a ten out of ten."

Cons
"The tool's onboarding of users that use on-premise or hybrid environments needs to be improved.""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.""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.""We encounter problems connecting the product deployed on the user endpoints with the servers.""I would like to see more integration with other solutions. For example, integration well with Microsoft but not with other solutions.""Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence is evolving and needs to fix and enhance numerous issues like stability and licensing. The continuous rebranding and licensing changes are confusing.""It would be beneficial to enhance the pricing structure and make it more affordable."

More Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence Cons →

"We'd like them to be better at dealing with script threats.""I would like to see future versions of the solution incorporate artificial intelligence technology.""The initial setup was industry standard complex. It takes awhile and has a lot of planning involved. It could be simplified with product redesign.""Lacks remote capabilities not dependent on the internet.""This solution needs to be made "cloud ready".""There could be a tool that automatically updates all-new Microsoft IPs, which are available for free to connect to the client.""Make the ATD system a part of the whole product and take the whole thing onto the cloud. While it is there already, it is not to the same level as the on-premise version."
