Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft 365 Defender
We needed additional Email Security. We did not have any advanced threat protection features in with our other provider. We only had basic SPAM and Malware scanning. Microsoft Defender Plan 1 for Office 365 added Safelinks, Safe Attachments, and Anti-Phishing features. This helps prevent issues with employees accessing email hyperlinks or attachments that would lead to a virus or phishing scheme.
- Safelinks
- Safe Attachments.
- Anti-Phishing
- User Interface.
- Lower Insurance Costs.
- Less Email Virus and Phishing Risks.
We often received Phishing Emails that we had to train our employees to delete. We still continue to train our employees, but the number of phishing emails has reduced. This is the number 1 risk to our information technology systems. By increasing email security, our customer's information is much safer.
We now have fewer phishing emails coming through.
No.
No.
They are similar products. The user interfaces are quite different. I have gotten used to both. We actually use Bitdefender for most of our IT Security, and we use Microsoft 365 as our email provider, so we added Microsoft 365 Defender Email Security for advanced security threat protection. They seem to work well together.
