Microsoft Defender for Endpoint Reviews

I primarily use this solution for the safety of my PC. It protects me against ransomware and other types of viruses.

Microsoft Defender has indicated problems with some websites that I was able to remove.

A few years ago, when I was using a different product, I was affected by a virus that destroyed everything. Since using Microsoft Defender, I have not had this kind of problem.

The most valuable feature is that it helps protect me against any type of virus that might attack my system.

The performance is good.

Lowering the price would be an improvement.

I have been using Microsoft Defender Antivirus for the last three years.

Stability-wise, this is a strong product and it works better than other anti-virus solutions.

Prior to this solution, I had used different anti-virus products. One of them was a solution by Kaspersky, which I used for a long time. When I was using it, my PC was running very slow. Sometimes, I was not able to access legitimate websites because Kaspersky blocked them. I found that it blocked many websites that were legally valid, which was frustrating.

Because of these reasons, I switched products.

I used another product after Kaspersky for one year but it was not good either.

Installing this solution on the computer is easy to do.

While expensive, the service it provides is good, which is why we are using it.

Microsoft Defender is an expensive product in my country.

I would recommend my friends and colleagues use Microsoft Defender because it always protects us against ransomware and viruses. 

In summary, this is a great product.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Microsoft Windows Defender is used to protect against malware.

The biggest benefit to Windows Defender is that it is built-in to the operating system by Microsoft.

I would like to see improvements made to how it secures activities on web pages.

Web security in general should be improved.

I have been working with Windows Defender for three years.

The technical support from Microsoft is good.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is used for protection against threats.

The reporting in Microsoft Defender for Endpoint should improve. The solution has limited features.

I have been using Microsoft Defender for Endpoint for approximately three years.

Microsoft Defender for Endpoint is stable.

The scalability is good.

My team did the implementation of the solution.

This solution is part of an enterprise license we have.

There are a lot of other products on the market that have better features.

If you have a mid-sized organization, the solution works well. However, in a large size organization, there are challenges.

I rate Microsoft Defender for Endpoint a seven out of ten.

Our primary use is for protection against malware.

What I like best is that it is part of the operating system, as opposed to a third-party application.

The fact that it's from Microsoft, you don't have many false positives, unlike products from other vendors might have.

Updates occur frequently throughout the day.

I would like to have a dashboard that shows an overview of the results for the enterprise.

We just began using Windows Defender in the company.

We have premium support, which is part of our enterprise agreement with Microsoft.

The deployment takes place with the operating system, so it was not complex.

We used a Microsoft consultant to assist with our implementation.

This product is included in the pricing for Windows.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

We use Microsoft Defender Antivirus as part of our security solution.

I have set Microsoft Windows Defender up to notify me when there is a problem. I open it up and then decide what to do. The interface has all of the important things that I want to be able to do.

It is easy to use and the only thing you need to do is make sure that you have internet, and keep your organization schema up to date. There is not much to do in terms of configuration.

The protection that it provides is quite good.

The user interface could use some improvement.

I have been using Microsoft Defender Antivirus since 2015.

I had been using AVG prior to Microsoft Defender.

There is no installation, as it comes pre-configured on the computer.

For most people, the price of the license is not something that they have to worry about.

This is a product that I have recommended to my friends and I will continue to do so.

Overall, this is a good product and I have never been disappointed with it. That said, there is always something that can be improved.

I would rate this solution a ten out of ten.

My primary use case is as an end-user solution. It helps protect the computer against viruses and malware. It has a firewall option and offers basic protection for an end-user and a home user. If you are a home user, it's a very good solution for you.

The most valuable feature is that it is easy to use; the solution is already there when you load Windows. It's effective against most types of infection, and the firewall is perfect for protection.

One area where the product could be improved is that I don't think it can be used all by itself, if you are working with a business. If you are using the laptop as a business, you need to add an extra protection with this solution.

The solution could be more friendly for end-users, with different type of scans or scheduled scans for it. The antivirus database update could be a cloud protection instead of waiting for the database to be updated every now and then.

I have been using the solution since it launched, around 2014.

The solution is stable and working fine for me. I haven't faced any problem with it.

The solution is scalable.

I haven't had a crash or problem with Microsoft Defender, so I haven't needed to contact the support.

The solution is a Windows feature, so it's already there when I launch the operating system.

The solution is free with Windows.

I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. As it's a free solution, it doesn't have a lot of features like paid versions. If you are a home user or don't have a paid version of any other antivirus, Defender will be fine for you.

Our primary use case of this solution is endpoint protection. In general, we use it to protect our devices, rather than using third-party software. 

This solution is deployed on-prem. 

The most valuable feature is that it comes with the package, so there is no additional installation of third-party software. It's also easy to use. 

Microsoft Defender could be improved with features more like the McAfee ePO. It would be better if I had a console to get all the information for my endpoints. Maybe this is too much for it, but it would be better if it could handle those non-signature-based malicious codes or viruses. In the future, more and more non-signature-based activities or viruses will appear, which you can see in the market with software like CrowdStrike or other products that target non-signature-based attacks. 

There are two groups: one is signature, which means that people know it, and the other is non-signature, which means that these are abnormal activities unknown to people. If Defender could also handle those non-signature-based attacks or abnormal activities, it would be better. 

I have been using Microsoft Defender for one or two years. 

This solution is quite stable. In our opinion, it's similar to those signature-based antivirus software, and almost at the same level. 

There are about five or six users of Microsoft Defender in my organization, because we are not very big. Other people and other teams like to have different end device software. 

We have a support contract with Microsoft, so we have a ticket system where we can pass questions to them. These things are handled by the help desk people, though, not me. 

It's not difficult to install Microsoft Defender. I don't remember how much time it took, but the process is easy. 

We pay a yearly license for Microsoft Defender. We also have a support contract with them. 

I wish that Microsoft Defender had a feature like McAfee's ePO, where I could have a console to get all the information for my endpoints. I also evaluated CrowdStrike because it can target non-signature-based attacks.  

I rate Microsoft Defender an eight out of ten. I would recommend it to others, but it depends on whether they have their own policy for deploying antivirus products. It's good for some users who have some preferences—who need to follow their security policy or who have some budgeting issues. 

I like that this product comes included with Windows.

This software is easy to use.

It could be easier when it comes to managing exceptions.

In the future, I would like to see better integration with web browsers.

I have been using Windows Defender for three years.

Windows Defender is very stable. We have not experienced bugs or glitches at a rate higher or lower than other software.

The scalability is good. Most of the people in the company use it, for a total of about 30 users.

We have not needed to contact technical support.

Microsoft Windows Defender was the first solution of this type that we used. However, we also use the Sophos EPP Suite for endpoint protection.

This solution is part of Windows and comes included with it.

My advice for anybody who is looking into using this product is that it's a good and easy way to secure your PC.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
