Great, simple and easy protection tool

Likeliness to Recommend

10 /10

What differentiates Microsoft Defender for Endpoint from other similar products?

It's easy to use, simple, didactic and the hit base is amazing. Lately we don't use another solution to protect our websites that is as effective as it. And every day it's improving even more

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

As already said, the ease of use is impressive. The configuration is also very easy and the integration with the system is an exceptional advantage. It is barely noticeable that the tool is working in real time

What do you dislike most about this product?

The only thing I don't like is that in real time the tool prevents the system from starting and shutting down faster. This could be improved in the future.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Microsoft Security is a welcome surprise. It has evolved a lot and is now one of the best tools in its category. It owes nothing to other consolidated tools on the market. Its use is really worth it.
