Featured Reviews

Jörg Köhler - PeerSpot reviewer
Owner at AvalisNT AG
Efficient email security and link scanning streamline network protection
One area for improvement is the user-friendliness of the UI. It is not intuitive to manage policies as I have to go through several pages to find necessary information. Additionally, the profile management for scanning and protection profiles is clumsy and could be more straightforward. There should be some simplification in changing profiles due to performance issues.
Mohammed Zain - PeerSpot reviewer
Sr.Infrastructure & Security Administrator at Bakheet Co. For Machinery
Achieve effective email management while identifying areas for security upgrades
There are a couple of issues we have encountered while using Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites for the past four or five years. The first is the Business Email Compromise (BEC) issue. Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID. We were not able to get a satisfactory answer from them regarding the BEC issue. The ransomware protection issue for the old servers or outdated servers and recovery of the data needs improvement in Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites. The ransomware protection issue for old servers and business email compromise also needs to be upgraded because even though it's configured, we still face this BEC issue. The response time of the support also needs improvement.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It has a very good cloud console that's easy to use and install."
"A lot of the AI that is running in the background that deals with the response on different detections is important, and the learning from the labs themselves is also very important. That's where they set themselves apart from others. A lot of the other products that are out there on the market probably have a lot more bells and whistles, but they are not necessarily directed at the heart of what MDR should do, at least in my opinion. Everybody is entitled to their own opinion, and in my opinion, if you're getting back to the basics and doing what its true intention is, they've done a very good job in comparison to others."
"I like the EDR feature."
"A user cannot uninstall or disable the tool from their systems. It has ransomware blocking and zero-day threat protection. The tool also alerts us whenever a system or device has been compromised. It has a web control feature to manage website categories."
"The main thing I like about it is it's got all the features I need."
"Customer service and support are very good."
"It's easy to use."
"Bitdefender MDR's integration capabilities have been smooth, leveraging cloud-based and various threat intelligence feeds. Bitdefender's array of technologies, including remote mapping and machine learning, with numerous patents, ensures effective threat management."
"We can get in-depth details of the emails going in and out, and we can create rules; it's easy to manage and navigate, the main thing is that it's easy to handle."
"The solution's ability to operate without placing a heavy burden on our system resources is particularly commendable."
"Trend Micro effectively detects and blocks NAS devices and identifies potential threats."
"The multi-tenancy feature is beneficial for managing different customers, allowing for efficient handling across various tenants."
"The most important feature is behaviour detection."
"Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites has an inbuilt auto scan facility. It is very good at detection and response, and it includes a web filtering option."
"The solution offers a comprehensive solution that includes antivirus, malware protection, ransomware protection, web filtering, and device control features. It provides networking capabilities, making it a robust solution for comprehensive security needs."
"The most valuable features of Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites that I found are the antivirus, anti-spamming, anti-malware services that customers are looking for and using, and they are satisfied with that."
 

Cons

"They can improve their support a little bit. We've had some issues with some of the installations in terms of getting the installation, configuration, and flows correct, and sometimes, their support is not as simple and easy to deal with as we'd like."
"Bitdefender MDR consumes too many resources during scanning which further affects developers' productivity."
"They're doing a really good job. The throughput and the response time can always be better, but there's already a solution out there. It depends on how much and what tier you want to be a part of. The way they're designed is that if you pay for it, you can have a turnaround time in a very short amount of time. If you don't pay for it, your response time is going to be a little bit less. That can always be improved, no matter what tier you're on. It could be in terms of tech support, or it could also be things like getting the reports and getting the summary back from the labs. When something is detected, what did it all entail? There are a lot of those things. It's not all in one, but all of those are different branches."
"The throughput and the response time can always be better, but there's already a solution out there."
"Integration capabilities are not as rich as other tools like CrowdStrike's. Bitdefender wasn't as feature-rich in that aspect."
"One area for improvement is the user-friendliness of the UI. It is not intuitive to manage policies as I have to go through several pages to find necessary information."
"Bitdefender needs to probably position this product and create more awareness among people because a lot of companies use products like CrowdStrike, which is doing pretty well."
"The lack of integration with Microsoft Outlook is a significant drawback."
"The licensing aspect seems costly, and the license cost increases yearly, which is a concern for us."
"The solution’s scalability is limited."
"The pricing of Trend Micro is a little bit higher compared to Sophos."
"The solution's documentation is not good, and I'm struggling to change global configurations."
"The EDR part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Even though we configured the business email compromise option, we still face this issue sometimes where people are getting emails directly with our email ID."
"Network vulnerability scanning could be improved."
"The log management feature needs to be improved, specifically, the ability to send logs from the console via API."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I know it is based on the volume and size and also on different multi-year agreements. There are different discounts applied, but I can't really speak about the specifics."
"I would rate the tool's pricing a four out of ten."
"As far as pricing is concerned, I would rate them not expensive, not cheap."
"It varies based on the number of licenses."
"Bitdefender fit well for customers with about 50 to 200 users. The price point is great, and you get a lot of bang for your buck."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"The product is available at a very good price point."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution, which is too expensive."
