flexible reporting and analytics boost data-driven security responses
The feature I appreciate the most about Cisco XDR is the flexibility for a user to be able to create their own reporting and dashboards. I would say I got to stop beta testing myself. I am testing what can be customized the most with it. Being able to ingest all the analytics and make it something that's either meaningful to them or to their own leadership is a big plus. It's not just what the product is at launch; you have the ability to customize and make it useful to your business to actually get real, purposeful information out of just a swamp of data. The features of Cisco XDR have actually benefited the organization significantly by allowing us to do the outputs of specific data and even filtered subsets of the data. We can do the same reporting but only deliver in either reports or dashboards the information about the systems that a specific team is responsible for, or the larger teams that multiple departments or IT silos roll up into. We're basically able to just modify the filters and have the same reports in the same dashboards where it's all the same; 99% of the work is the same.

Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment
Trend Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit. We can quickly see where the attack is coming from. Trend Vision One enables us to use different products with a flexible license. For example, if a customer is using endpoint security and wants to switch to another solution, they can instantly use a different Trend Micro product, such as email. Trend Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly. With playbook templates, in cases of recurring attacks, responses can be made quickly using predefined playbooks. Trend Vision One has helped to reduce noise from false positives. There have been false positives before, but it was due to the customer not telling us which app they were using. Best practice configurations must be applied properly to avoid such issues. Trend Vision One helps customers consolidate the use of security vendors and reduce silos by offering one platform for all product management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Cisco XDR is built primarily for enterprise endpoint security, integrated onto endpoints with logs integrated into SIEM, and it is used for security investigations, malware impact investigation, and tracking particular security incidents through integration of different logs, where endpoint logs are very important, providing detail about processes run by potential malware and any call-outs made to command and control."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Cisco XDR is the flexibility for a user to be able to create their own reporting and dashboards, ingest all the analytics, and make it something meaningful to their business to actually get real, purposeful information out of just a swamp of data."
"One of my favorite features of Cisco XDR is the automation tool, which saves a lot of time because we can craft these automations and workflows."
"My advice for other organizations considering Cisco XDR is that it offers proactive security measures that are really very helpful."
"One of my favorite features of Cisco XDR is the automation tool, which saves a lot of time because we can craft these automations and workflows."
"Cisco XDR offers threat intelligence and links with the Firewall."
"The features of Cisco XDR benefit my company since time is money. When outages happen and when a customer can't reach the internet, they get agitated. Therefore, the quicker we can mitigate an issue, our customers get happier in a quicker fashion."
"I appreciate the granularity of what I get from Cisco XDR the most."
"The ease of configuration, customization, and organization are what I appreciate the most about Trend Vision One."
"Its threat intelligence sources enable it to automatically block domains known for command-and-control callbacks, effectively preventing attacks from those sources."
"The centralized visibility is good."
"It is a stable product. It works very well."
"Trend Micro can integrate third-party tools, such as Fortinet, Cisco, or any other vendor's firewall, to get the logs and alerts from them. Vision One is much more capable in that way."
"Scaling is not a problem at all."
"The organizational view simplifies management and improves visibility, helping us identify areas for action."
"The telemetric report is the most valuable feature."
 

Cons

"They need to provide better pricing and bundle XDR licenses with products like Meraki solutions or Firepower Threat Defense."
"One area that needs improvement is the limited visibility due to the licensing structure. For more visibility, customers need the advantage or premier licensing, which involves additional costs."
"Regarding the pricing aspect of Cisco XDR, I think the price is a bit expensive."
"Cisco XDR can be improved by addressing the upfront cost."
"My only complaint about Cisco XDR is related to licensing, which is complicated."
"They need to provide better pricing and bundle XDR licenses with products like Meraki solutions or Firepower Threat Defense."
"If we have a list of domains we need to block, such as 4,000 domains, I can only block 100 domains at a time because if I put in more than 100 domains, I hit that 2,000 character max and can't continue with an investigation. Being able to put in all 4,000 domains, without a character limit or observable limit, would make doing those case books a whole lot easier and blocking those domains a whole lot easier too."
"When we first started with Cisco XDR in August, everybody was having issues. There were three people in our organization, including me, who couldn't even log in to Cisco XDR."
"Sometimes the CPU utilization is so high that the computer crashes or lags behind."
"I'd like to see alert time reduction so that they show up on the dashboard faster."
"The SOAR features (Security Playbooks) are quite limited."
"The product needs to have a lot more maturity, and they need to improve the overall technical support framework for getting the value out of XDR."
"The only disappointing aspect is that every time new features are adopted, additional credits are required, which could push the budget over. This practice should really be reconsidered by Trend."
"I believe that the interface could be more user-friendly. At times, it is challenging to locate certain features, and they need to reorganize the user interfaces."
"Trend Micro's support is suboptimal in my region, likely due to proximity to their resources, favouring areas closer to the company. Consequently, we utilize local support providers who offer better service."
"I would like to have the capability to export the information we receive from the XDR into Microsoft Excel."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing of Cisco XDR is a bit complicated. The cost can depend on what it is, and the process can be a little complicated."
"From a pricing standpoint, they're a really good negotiator and they'll work with you."
"Trend Vision One is cost-effective because it offers detailed reporting and environment control features."
"Trend Micro's cost is higher than other solutions. That is the main reason why we need to switch to another solution."
"It would be nice if it was a little bit cheaper, but I think it has a fair price. It is comparable to others in the market."
"The solution is fairly priced."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro."
"When I compare it to its peers that can do the same, it is cost-effective."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive."
