The most vulnerable antivirus on the market
Likeliness to Recommend
What differentiates Microsoft Defender for Endpoint from other similar products?
The difference is that Microsoft Defender is an antivirus that instead of protecting the computers, what it does is slow down the system with its processes and make it more vulnerable, truly a product in my opinion, deficient

None, I do not like Windows Defender at all, it seems to me a poor product that does not fulfill the main function at all, which is to keep our computers protected and virus-free
What do you dislike most about this product?
Absolutely everything, outdated database, totally vulnerable, makes the system super slow and to top it all it blocks application installers that if they are safe, it really is a very bad antivirus solution, I would dare to say that the worst I have ever used in my life

I do not recommend it to anyone, since it is the worst antivirus that exists in the market, definitely do not use it for the world.
