Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Defender for Endpoint

It's the endpoint security for the endpoints included with our Office 365.
  • It's an integrated EDR and a virus on the endpoint, so you don't have to have any third party software integrates directly in, so no overhead on the machine.
  • I don't think it has as many third party integrations and great reporting. So I would like to see better reporting on it and better management and centralized management.
  • Positive, just the integration point. Easy to manage, easy to put on. Overall positive.
  • Other
Primarily just the fact that it's integrated into the 365 Suite, completely integrated all the way through, so it just makes it easy to use. The fact that it's built into 365, is just included with the E five platform.
Just Endpoint management. EDR platform, the AAV platform.
About 30. Windows.
Bitdefender for Endpoint. We used that a couple of years ago. Still utilize that in other areas, but in-house with 365. I would say they're pretty equal. They both have great coverage whereas 365 doesn't do as good as the reporting, but it has better integrations to the machine.

Yes

Did Microsoft Defender for Endpoint live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Microsoft Defender for Endpoint go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Microsoft Defender for Endpoint again?

Yes

Because it's still a good product overall price range. I think it needs some improvement still. So well suited is anybody who's a 365 shop because it's fully integrated and has everything already connected in. Less suited is if you're not 365 shops or you're running G Suite or other platforms on top of it, it doesn't fit in well.
