Find out in this report how the two Microsoft Security Suite solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence assesses machines for vulnerabilities and gives remediations."
"Offers easy integration with a cloud-based infrastructure"
"You can use it to monitor third parties and ensure they are not under threat attacks. It is beneficial in the GRC model."
"The product is useful when the end user downloads malware files."
"Its user-friendliness is its most valuable aspect."
"It just runs in the background. I don't have to worry about, making sure it's Intelligence. So, you know, this kind of makes it very easy, have to worry about installing. It is easy to use."
"The most valuable feature of the solution stems from the insight it provides."
"The product's anti-spam and malware-scanning features are useful. We scan email attachments, documents, and malicious codes."
"It's certainly easy to work with all Microsoft data sources like SQL Server, Synapse, and data lakes, but it also has great functionality working with Oracle. And of particular interest to us is the ability to pull data from Excel, CVS files, and other types of flat files."
"Their data labeling or data classification is particularly valuable because we want to categorize all of our data into confidential, public, or internal."
"My favorite features are eDiscovery and insider risk management, because these are the major threats to an organization that can't be easily traced."
"It is critical that Purview delivers data protection across multi-cloud and multi-platform environments. That is the number one reason that people are adopting hybrid and best-of-the-breed approaches. Especially in banking, it is critical because people want to protect, govern, and secure their data. This is one of the first conversations that happens with security and the architecture group on the client side."
"Has a good interface and is reasonably priced."
"The most valuable aspect of Purview is its PowerShell connectivity, enabling automation."
"My favorite Purview feature is auto-scanning. Once we set up Purview, we can automatically scan multiple data sources when new data comes into specific databases, like SQL and Oracle. We don't need to rediscover the new data or do anything manually because it automatically happens."
"The cataloging tool is definitely the most valuable... It tells you about all the data you have in your tables, which helps people understand our data. We now know what data we have."
"Microsoft Defender Threat Intelligence should integrate with different platforms."
"The price of the solution is an area of concern where improvements are required. In general, the solution's price needs to be reduced."
"The software is expensive."
"It takes time for the support team to understand the issue, and they then respond with a delay at times, which causes a lot of trouble."
"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."
"There could be AI functionality included for features like reporting and dashboard preparation."
"One area that can be improved is reducing false positives."
"I would like to see more AI features and capabilities."
"Privacy features should be integrated into the core product rather than offered as optional add-ons, as privacy is not a luxury but a fundamental requirement."
"It could reduce pricing to encourage usage."
"The overall cost of deploying this solution could be better. It seems that middle and small-sized organizations are not completely happy with deploying this solution in terms of the cost. It would be good if they concentrate on the cost part."
"There are some limitations with regard to the lineage of data from different parts of the system."
"We have had a lot of issues since we moved to Unified Support. There have been work gaps there, and we believe they fixed them, but we need to make sure that they are going to be sustainable. It is to be seen."
"he one thing it doesn't do is data quality."
"Data quality has been a highly requested feature among customers."
"The current event-based retention management is very poor."
