Does Windows Defender have licensing limitations for organizations over 10, or so, users/computers? I cant remember exactly what the limitations used to be for Windows 7/8.
It is built into Windows so no limitation that I am aware of

Once upon a time it had a limit of 10 computers in an org. It was ridiculous. But it was not long lasted.

Oh yeah, but that was for Microsoft Security Essentials which was not the same as Defender at the time. But I do know that limitation on Windows 7.

So if you had 21 users at a company you would have to buy 3 licenses?
Im glad that's not current! -
Windows Defender or Webroot by choice.
At work we use Sophos as well. The centralized management console for a corporate network is a huge time saver. Most AV software will have a centralized management console available at some price point, so the vendor doesn't really matter so much for that.

Trend Micro OfficeScan. Works fairly well.
