    Being a VMware product, AppDefense has the advantage of compatibility with all of the VMware product feature updates and patches ( ESXi, NSX, vCenter, etc.). Paired with Carbon Black, it's resource overhead is well-tuned compared to traditional antivirus products.

    Pros
    Morphisec
    • Stops ransomware attacks in a unique fashion before they can infect and spread in an environment.
    • Works flawlessly so far with our additional security tools and platforms.
    • Has a very small footprint as an application so does not interfere with day to day operations on our endpoints.

    • I think that the AppDefense approach is clever and sets it apart from other products. Having a baseline of normal behavior that I can see is something I haven't seen in another product before.
    • AppDefense doesn't overload my systems with performance draining agents.
    • AppDefense integrates with VMWare products I have or plan to purchase.
    • Access to AppDefense support has been better than any other VMWare products.

    Cons
    Morphisec
    • I would like to see the program run a bit faster, there are times when it takes a few minutes to detect and issue my current state.
    • We have co-workers who want to admire and try the program before taking the initiative to pay for its service, it is unfortunate that this program does not have a free version or a preview to each of its functions.

    The product is still quite new, and there seems to be a lack of technical information available for both the E.U. and support staff. That being said, the support staff that I have worked with have always been very knowledgeable and ensure that they see a ticket through to completion.

    Morphisec won out in our search for strong protection against ransomware and zero-day attacks by offering a unique approach to preventing them, to begin with. There were some additional offerings that did some things very well themselves, but in the end, it came down to a few things Morphisec seemed to be the best in our research at least. Those things included how it specifically protected against ransomware and zero-day attacks, the small footprint it needs to run, and it's ability to just slot into our environment and allow us the flexibility to continue using our current XDR and NextGenAV platforms as well.

    We have several security applications, but none exactly like VMware AppDefense. That is one of the reasons I like it, as it seems to take a different angle on monitoring and protection. The other apps monitor different things, but one thing AppDefense seems to have over them is a streamlined interface and not a lot of false positives.

    Morphisec
    • One of the biggest and best features that this program implemented in my work area is the efficiency and security of trusting to be the main user to carry out the most important jobs in my company.
    • Morphisec Guard was created with the intention that each company, regardless of its content, can work without having to deal with different types of attacks and threats that destroy the development of my work.
