Overall I like the product as it comes in a package with other Microsoft tools. Also it provides a great deal of protection against malwares and viruses. It can do scheduled scan from time to time once specified. It does not cost you anything except for the deployment which is very impressive.

Pros

It is free and easy to setup. It is great for detecting threats across the networks, detecting spam and other major malicious activities. The reports generated are very detailed and lets you analyze the threat level making it very useful for protection.

Cons

This rate of detection of this toll is less when compared to other competitors. Deployment is expensive and we face issues sometimes while deploying. The notification pop-ups are too many and it gives discomfort to the users.

It doesn't solve any problems, it just causes more. The only reason I have it is because it comes pre-installed

Pros

The only thing I like about Defender is that it is very simple to disable. It only represents an obstacle to install programs.

Cons

Its virus scans are the worst, it consumes a lot of RAM and gives very low results
