Find out in this report how the two Email Security solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Defender enables us to secure all 365-related activity from a single place. It gives us visibility into everything happening in Outlook, protecting us against phishing and other email-based threats. Defender helps us detect any suspicious behaviors."
"It also gives me good visibility because, with Defender, I'm using a Microsoft product to defend Microsoft products. The integration was really seamless and I have wide visibility because it picks up almost everything. Literally, I can see almost every activity that happens, from the e-mail to the workstation itself."
"At the moment we are satisfied with this product. It's a stable, scalable, and resilient solution for us."
"The solution is very easy to use. All you have to do is to assign the license to the end-user and it's done. The customer will only have the feature activated, and the solution will monitor the emails to determine if they are a threat or not."
"Since we have started using the solution, there have been fewer compromises."
"The benefit that stands out to me is the ability for multiple individuals to collaborate simultaneously within the same document. Additionally, there is the option to save the document directly in the integrated OneDrive or SharePoint."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 has improved my organization's security. It makes it easier to manage the infrastructure without the help of third-party applications."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 helps people to work remotely. It is a secure solution. We don't need to use our company's computers or get VPN connections to the networks. I can control how they share screens and what they send to the devices. It keeps our organizations confidential and sensitive information safe."
"The solution's stability is very, very good. I didn't face any problems in the last year."
"It offers great security against malware and other threats."
"We use the solution in all our environments. We use it for remedy tickets and give them updates. It was our main communication point."
"We use the solution to receive emails. We do not use the calendar function as our clients are slow adaptors to the latest features."
"The pre-set policies and configuration analyzer are the most valuable features."
"The threat management feature includes policies and alerts that are valuable."
"The initial setup was easy. The configuration process is very straightforward."
"It's all running in the backend, so it doesn't affect the app functionality."
"The solution provides protection with its Email Track Records and Machine Manual features."
"The technical support services are excellent."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 must improve the overall management style, including the GUI. It also needs to change the filters so that it is easy to whitelist and blacklist data."
"Microsoft wants its well-paying customers to finish testing some of its half-baked products, find bugs, and report bugs back to Microsoft's team, which is a little frustrating for those who have to manage it and roll it up to thousands of people across the organization."
"The pre-sales cost calculations could be more transparent."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 should be more proactive."
"We noticed that from time to time, Microsoft's stability does have problems. Sometimes the service goes up and down. Sometimes they change without prior notice."
"The phishing and spam filters could use some improvement."
"Microsoft sometimes has downtime, and we'll get several incidents coming in back to back. We have a huge backlog of notifications, many of which may be false positives. However, there might be serious alerts, so we can't risk dismissing all of them at once."
"One area for improvement is integration. For example, when it comes to external SaaS platforms, we were not able to get a lot of information on integrations with such apps for security and authentication."
"The solution needs to improve its backup."
"It would be helpful for customers if Plan 1 features were included with EOP."
"It doesn't protect against everything. We do need protection for, for example, endpoints."
"It wasn't easy or intuitive enough for me to start using it. So, the reason was that the solution changed."
"The licensing can be on the expensive side, especially in the cloud space."
"We would like the solution to have more in-built intelligence in the way that it reviews potential security risks, rather than our team constantly having to update the policies."
"I would like to get reports about vulnerable connections from our clients with information about domains, public IPs, etc. That would be highly useful."
"Microsoft has some training portals, but more could be developed."
"The solution's pricing could be improved."
"The product's pricing could be more flexible."
