Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"We have just started to implement it. It is useful for protection from malware and ransomware.""Provides good security features and you can view it in the central console.""It has Kusto Query Language (KQL), so we can use our own queries to find anything.""The protection that it provides is quite good.""It's absolutely free to use.""Defender for Endpoint is a robust solution that works well out-of-the-box.""The best feature is the fact that for certain mobiles you can control your corporate profiles versus your personal profiles. That is amazingly important. Apple just supported the separation of corporate and personal profiles, whereas Android has been doing that for quite some time... Because Android supports that, if an Android phone is lost or stolen, I can wipe out all the corporate-related information from that phone and not touch the personal side. I can separate the apps and I can separate the ability to cut and paste between apps.""DFE organizational security posture has been a positive experience. We're a Microsoft house. It works. Once it's deployed and once it's configured, it works and our clients tend to be happy with it. I haven't really experienced anyone who has been so unsatisfied with the platform that they wanted to go a couple of different directions, that has never happened to me."

Cons
"I'm not too sure of its current capabilities, but I'm pretty sure they are doing a good job on Windows and Mac. However, I'm not sure whether they covered Linux. If I remember correctly, Microsoft Defender didn't have anything proper on Linux back then, but if they have improved it from that aspect, it would already be ticking all the boxes.""I would like MDE to have the ability to isolate a certain amount of time on the timeline.""I am not sure if I will be using this product in the future because of the price.""It would be helpful if they included XDR features, on top of the EDR functionality.""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.""It would be helpful if they offered video tutorial guides.""I would like to see better integration with their other security products to give better visibility from a higher level.""The onboarding and deployment could be more user-friendly, and there is room to grow in some of the reports. I don't want them to be oversimplified or overly complex, but there is room for improvement in the reporting it can do. It's relatively minor."
