We compared CylancePROTECT and Trend Micro Deep Security based on our users reviews in five parameters. After reading the collected data, you can find our conclusion below:
Comparison Results: When comparing CylancePROTECT and Trend Micro Deep Security, CylancePROTECT is commended for its effortless implementation and precision, as well as its advanced AI-driven user behavior monitoring. However, it receives negative feedback regarding its cost, lack of user-friendliness, and excessive false positives. Conversely, Trend Micro Deep Security delivers supplementary capabilities like vulnerability protection and a firewall, receiving positive evaluations for its performance, customer support, and compatibility. Areas for improvement include reporting, handling dynamic threats, and affordability. Pricing differs for both solutions, and the customer support for Trend Micro is highly acclaimed.
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"I like FortiClient EMS. FortiEDR has a lot of great features like lockdown mode, remote wipes, and encryption. I can set malware outbreak policies and controls for detecting abnormalities. You can also simulate phishing attacks."
"The features that I have found most valuable are the ability to customize it and to reduce its size. It lets you run in a very small window in terms of memory and resources on legacy cash registers."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"Does malware analysis. Blocks WannaCry and other attacks that have come out."
"In most cases, the solution's ability to detect in the MITRE framework, and its ability to be able to detect attacks in any one of seven or eight different areas of the life cycle of an attack is very useful."
"The most valuable features are script blocking and macros within Word documents for stopping unwanted applications from running in the background."
"The non-daily requirement to update signatures is the most valuable feature. From a functional point of view, it is pretty spot on. For instance, we compared an algorithm from five years ago to today's algorithm, and it was 98% accurate. It has the ability to detect and mitigate. In the industrial environment that we work in, there's what we call OT versus IT. You are IT Central, but this is OT. Generally, we don't have the same level of skillset as IT individuals or IT professionals have. This particular product doesn't require you to be a computer scientist to be able to understand its proprietary algorithm and to be able to deploy, use, and work within it. It integrates well with a robust SIEM or SOAR solution, and it plays nice with others. We use other detection solutions like CyberX or site provision with Cisco, and it plays nice. That's one of the things we really liked about it."
"The solution is stable."
"You can scale the solution to different versions."
"Deep Security is a good product for managing a few servers."
"Easy to scale, stable solution for workload and server security and protection. It's easy to set up and has a good ransomware protection feature."
"Very user-friendly interface, easy to understand."
"I like the anti-malware features."
"It is a stable solution...The solution's initial setup was straightforward."
"Their support is good. They are responsive, which is nice."
"It provides security and protection. The endpoint firewall is valuable."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The solution is not stable."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The support needs improvement."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"I think cloud security and SASE are areas of concern in the product where improvements are required. The tool's cloud version has to be improved in terms of the security it offers."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"The product needs to continue to offer better alerts. In particular, around false positives. It needs to reduce them from happening."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"Having worked with SentinelOne, Cylance is good, however, it probably needs to add a feature similar to SentinelOne's rollback functionality. With this feature, if you get infected, with a click, you can go back to the pre-infection state. If Cylance could add this functionality to their offering as well, that would be ideal."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"The OPTICS component could be made more user-friendly with respect to giving people more information."
"The situation with the currency in Turkey makes this solution a little bit on the expensive side, and if it were lowered then it would be more competitive."
"Enhancements in agent performance are needed, specifically in reducing server utilization during scanning."
"Requires simplification, a fair amount of trouble shooting required."
"It would be better if they merge a few features into one product. For example, they have an encryption feature that is separately sold. If they could merge it with Apex One or any endpoint security solution, maybe it would also be good for the end user."
"As for what could be improved, I think it should come with an XDR facility without any extra cost. They're always releasing new features, but we need to pay extra for them."
"I would like to see an EDR function for the servers, as that would be useful for us."
"AWS products could become more compatible with intrusion detection products leveraging help from Trend Micro."
"Trend Micro Deep Security security and scalability could be improved."
