Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Defender for Cloud

We use this for antivirus on our PCs.
  • Good scores.
  • Built into windows.
  • Cheaper than competitors.
  • Kind of slow.
  • Lacks advanced features.
  • Basic Virus and threat protection.
  • Settings easily accessible and customizable.
We have on-prem resources.
Microsoft Defender for Cloud does help reduce the number of threat alerts by a significant amount. Keep in mind, that this is just basic protection, but if that is all you need it for - it's the way to go!
Unfortunately, no, it doesn't reduce the number of products we would otherwise use in our department/facility.
