Flexible and adaptable to different security postures and business requirements
I have found the installation process of Microsoft Defender for Identity to be incredibly straightforward. You just download the agents from the Defender portal, move them to your domain controller, and install – simple as that. Once it is up and running, checking reports on our on-premises environment is a breeze. Everything I need is neatly aggregated on the Microsoft Defender portal, making it easy to monitor and manage our identity security. However, there is room for improvement, especially for organizations using proxy servers. Enhancements in this area could streamline the configuration process and make it more seamless, irrespective of the proxy settings in the environment.

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Microsoft Defender for Identity comes as part of the Microsoft E5 licensing stack."
"It is very affordable considering that other SIEM solutions are much more expensive and have many more licensing restrictions and fees."
"You won't be able to change your tenants from where you deploy them. For example, if you select Canada, they will charge you based on Canadian pricing. If you are also in London, when you deploy in Canada, the pound is higher than Canadian dollars, but your platform resources are billable in Canadian dollars. Using your pounds to pay for any of these things will be cheaper. Or, if you deploy in London, they will charge you based on your local currency."
"Defender for Identity is a little more expensive than other Microsoft products. Identity and Microsoft Defender for Cloud are both a bit costly."
"The product is costly, and we had multiple discussions with accounting to receive a discounted rate. However, on the open market, the tool is expensive."
