Microsoft Defender XDR Reviews

We rely on Microsoft 365 Defender for workstation detection across a number of categories, including virus detection, potential unknown application detection, and monitoring for suspicious website interactions, including clicks and access attempts.

I have used Microsoft 365 Defender in the cloud.

We have experienced significant advantages from implementing Microsoft 365 Defender, as it provides enhanced visibility into workstations and the ability to automatically remediate threats. This means that not every incident requires manual intervention, as certain tasks can be handled automatically, often in conjunction with Microsoft Sentinel.

We are able to ingest collected data from our entire ecosystem. This is an important feature.

We are able to prioritize threats accounts our whole environment.

The solution has helped automate routine tasks and help automate high-value alerts.

The threat intelligence has helped prepare us for potential threats before they hit and we took proactive steps. We are able to check our workstations are well.

We have saved some time by using the solution.

I have found that having solutions from multiple vendors is more helpful than from one.

The most valuable features of Microsoft 365 Defender are the combination of all the capabilities and centralized management.

The support could be more knowledgable to improve their offering.

I have been using Microsoft 365 Defender for approximately one and a half years.

The solution is stable.

We have a few thousand people using this solution in my organization.

The scalability of Microsoft 365 Defender is scalable.

I have used the support and they do not know how to fix the issues. Their knowledge could improve.

I rate the support from Microsoft 365 Defender a seven out of ten.

Neutral

We have used Microsoft Sentinel. Microsoft Sentinel enables us to investigate threats and respond holistically quickly from one place.

The comprehensive features of Sentinel Security Protection are impressive, particularly its integrated SOIR and UEBA functionalities, as well as its robust threat intelligence capabilities.

I have used McAfee previously and Microsoft 365 Defender is much better.

I rate Microsoft 365 Defender a ten out of ten.

We primarily use the solution for security. We removed all other antivirus products such as McAfee. We removed everything and now use Defender as Defender covers everything all third-party products used to cover.

Overall, we are satisfied with the product.

Instead of using three or four tools for security, we can use one. With one product, Defender, we have all of the features we need. We can use Defender to block and monitor for security purposes without needing multiple other products to do different tasks. 

It's very user-friendly.

The dashboards could be improved. They have to improve something about the dashboard. It is good, however, they need to provide some more information under each account.

The logs could be better.

I've been using the solution for two years. 

The solution is a perfectly stable product.

The scalability of the product is good.

Technical support from Microsoft is good. We haven't had any issues with them. We are quite satisfied so far. 

We previously used McAfee, however, we wanted to have just one solution, Defender, to cover everything.

The solution's initial setup is not complex yet not easy. We had to use some scripts and policies and a lot of things. If you set up a new environment with Defender, you have to integrate with the old policy and the same policy that was already set up. It needs time.

I handled everything without any consultation from any outside sources. 

I don't know the cost. The costs are handled by management. I can't say if the cost is expensive or not. I don't handle that aspect.

We're Microsoft partners. 

I'd rate the solution at a ten out of ten. It's a pretty perfect product.

We use the solution to back up our data frequently.

The solution is well integrated with applications. It is easy to maintain and administer.

The data recovery and backup could be improved.

I have been using the solution for a couple of years.

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable, you do not need to worry about resources. I have more than 50 users using the solution in my organization.

The support provides a 24 hrs service which I am completely satisfied with.

The installation was straightforward it did not take very long to deploy the backup software on any application.

We have six people that do the maintenance of the solution in my organization.

The solutions price is fair for what they offer.

I recommend this solution to others, it is easy to use and they will enjoy it.

I rate Microsoft 365 Defender a seven out of ten.

We primarily use the solution as security for our endpoints. It covers everything.

The solution is very useful for scanning email traffic.

Practically every company that is working in Microsoft Cloud can use it with a Microsoft 365 subscription.

The product is very easy to use.

So far, I have found the solution to be very stable. I haven't had any issues with it.

It would be helpful if the solution could scan faster when it comes to scanning attachments to emails.

I've been using the solution for a bit more than one year.

The product is quite stable. It's been problem-free. There are no bugs or glitches. It doesn't crash or freeze. It's reliable.

I do not believe the solution is scalable. It's fixed on my PC and I cannot upgrade it. It may be changed from time to time according to the company, however, beyond that, I have no control over expansion.

We have 250 people in our office using the solution.

We have an internal IT department. If I were to have issues, which I haven't, I would go to them. I've never contacted Microsoft's technical support directly. I have no experience dealing with them. I couldn't say if they are helpful or responsive.

I didn't handle the initial setup. That was handled by a technician in my company. It was placed on my PC for me. I don't have any insights in terms of the implementation process.

It may only take one person to install it. They would have to have a bit of knowledge on the product.

We are using the higher-level package which we have to pay a licensing fee for. There are different tiers. Ours includes extended detection with Advanced Threat Protection. It's the most powerful endpoint protection Microsoft offers.

We are using the latest version of the solution.

We sell the product and we use it as well. We are resellers.

We are using advanced endpoint detection in our security for email and a lot of other things, however, it is combined with Cisco solutions, for example, Cisco Umbrella. We have a file solution from IBM, and internally we are using it, however, I am not directly using all of these things. I'm using the administrative part for partnership purposes. I'm not a technical person. I am using them as a customer as part of Microsoft OS.

There is a lot of other tools behind the scenes as well, however, they are working on a network level, on a data center level, to secure the company. 

I'd rate the solution at a seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Defender XDR to centralize our security solutions.

Microsoft Defender XDR has helped us save some time.

The integration with other Microsoft solutions is the most valuable feature.

The mobile app support for Android and iOS is difficult and needs improvement. 

I am currently using Microsoft Defender XDR.

Microsoft Defender XDR is stable.

Microsoft Defender XDR is scalable.

The technical support is good.

Positive

In addition to using Microsoft Defender XDR, we also use Fortinet. We implemented Microsoft Defender XDR as part of our organization's policy to use Microsoft solutions because of their integration.

The initial deployment was straightforward. We completed the implementation within one year.

I would rate Microsoft Defender XDR a nine out of ten.
