    I use Clario to access platforms unavailable in my country. Our company uses them to place our products and we need vpn to access those links and Clario has it so it’s a great match. We have used another corporate app before but it has been costly and didn’t have so many servers available - so I’m actually happy we don’t need it anymore. What I really loved is cleaner browsing without ads - they no longer distract when you need to check something for business.

    I didn’t have enough time to get to know all the tools. I know there is an antivirus and a hacker check or something, but since I use Clario mostly for work, this isn’t really relevant to my daily work routine. Actually I guess it must be nice to have a separate business version with some specific file security features like shredder and different pricing.

    Microsoft Defender for Business is well suited for small and medium businesses that are running on a smaller budget, with little to no IT department and require a quick and effective setup to manage and protect their endpoints. It can be deployed and managed very quickly, and the person doing it can have little to no experience as long as they follow directions.

    Pros
    Clario Tech
    • Clario extension for safari blocks most pop-ups and annoying ads on websites.
    • Clario shows a green or red checkmark next to each Safari search result, which signals whether the link is safe or not.
    • It's really easy to enable the VPN feature when I need to access other countries' search results, and to overall keep my data secured while using different Wi-Fi networks.
    • I like their impeccable support service. If I have any questions, they usually reply in the chat within a few seconds. I've talked to a few of their agents regarding different issues, and all of them were very friendly, helpful, and nice.
    • It's not often you come across such a smooth and pretty design. I like how the Clario mobile app looks and how it guides me through all of the steps to secure my device.
    • Clario doesn't send me a bunch of annoying notifications daily as many other apps tend to do. Almost all of their alerts are about the useful things I need to pay attention to keep my data secured. Which is lovely and helpful, and not at all annoying. I hate when apps send a bunch of unnecessary notifications.

    Very user-friendly app. It runs smoothly and is easy to use for non-tech-savvy people.

    Microsoft Defender for Business is a solid tool for smaller businesses looking to manage their endpoints and devices, while staying on budget. The setup is minimal compared to the full-blown InTune and EMS suite, and the product can be included in some Small Business SKUs that they may already have.

    I have to say that Clario customer service is simply outstanding. When you talk to their experts, it does feel that they are experts - and they also answer literally the moment you message them

    My only experience with this kind of software is NordVPN. I used it several years ago on my old family computer. I chose Clario after a suggestion on Facebook because I like using the same app on my computer and phone. Also, Clario offers many other useful tools I need in addition to the VPN. I feel safer and more protected with them.

    Microsoft Defender for Business has better reporting and incident response. There is limited client rollout due to being integrated with Windows. Microsoft Defender for Business is much better at identifying asset risks and giving a broad security overview. Because we moved to Microsoft 365 to access the Office applications and Exchange online, Microsoft Defender for Business was essentially cost free to us. Where Microsoft Defender for Business falls short in comparison to Sophos is that it requires integration with Intune to enforce many of the physical controls that Sophos offers in their client.
