User Testimonials
	ExtremeCloud IQ Essentials	Microsoft Defender for IoT
Likelihood to Recommend	Extreme Networks No answers on this topic	Microsoft Suited in almost all situations as it has a server less option where if your end device cannot bear the load of an agent, it could be used to protect the network. The comprehensive dashboarding and its integration with Microsoft Defender 365 and Sentinel allows automated remediation and full incident investigation at a single pane. If you don't have a 24*7 SOC team this ca come handy as you can automate workbooks and scripts to run with custom triggers. I haven't faced any scenario where it is not a suitable choice.

Return on Investment	Extreme Networks No answers on this topic	Microsoft Positive: With the influx of IoT device organisations in general, we have seen significant demand of the product and hence a good revenue Negatively, sometimes, some preview features may significantly change or stop working, which causes client frustration Overall, keeping the distrust in preview features aside, 99% of the times, defender hits the right spot!
