Executive SummaryUpdated on Feb 26, 2026

CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager and Trend Micro ScanMail both operate in the cybersecurity category but focus on different aspects. CyberArk excels in endpoint and privileged access management, offering broader security benefits, while Trend Micro specializes in email security.

Features: CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager provides comprehensive features including password management, application whitelisting, credential detection, and Just-In-Time Access. It emphasizes control over application elevation and privileged access management. Trend Micro ScanMail offers real-time antivirus behaviors and mailbox scanning, primarily focusing on email threat protection, though it lacks comprehensive endpoint security capabilities.

Room for Improvement: CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager needs more streamlined integration processes and improved user experiences. Its hefty architecture and complex setup also require enhancement. Trend Micro ScanMail could improve its outdated user interface, expand its management console, and provide better documentation and support. Both products have areas to refine in reporting features.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager offers multiple deployment options including hybrid and public cloud solutions, albeit with mixed customer support reviews. Trend Micro ScanMail also supports hybrid cloud deployments but shares similar support challenges. Both products need to enhance their support and deployment processes.

Pricing and ROI: CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is priced high, especially for smaller businesses, but users recognize its value in security and ROI through decreased breaches and IT expenses. Trend Micro ScanMail has an average price, yet often requires additional tools for comprehensive protection, resulting in increased overall costs. CyberArk offers broader security benefits that justify its high pricing.

Strengthening financial services infrastructure by safeguarding and integrating with ecosystems

We use CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to complement a privilege access management solution in order to avoid golden ticket attacks and strengthen services against attacks. It serves as a complement to our asset management solution. The architecture of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is beneficial for integrating with all customer ecosystems; it's easy to deploy, and achieving that level of integration and control is more challenging with other solutions. The ability of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to safeguard our financial services infrastructure is very important, as we need to record actions on privileges in our information systems. Regarding the granularity of the managed controls in CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager, we have different levels of features to define compensations and capabilities, which help us verify configurations and access, ultimately keeping the safety of rights intact. Our initial challenge with CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is to comply with Colombian regulations in the financial sector, particularly identifying users and managing password changes and rotations. We needed to certify the identities and provide necessary information for government investigations, if required. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is very important for helping our organization meet compliance and regulatory requirements. We have to comply with international regulations such as SOC, but also with local regulations unique to the financial sector, which is crucial for us due to the high risks involved. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helped us reduce the time for regulatory processes to approximately two to four months, completing the solution and training. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has helped us reduce the mean time to detect within our organization. That's our main goal. Regarding MTTD, the solution provides enough information to enhance our overall detection process. We have an 85% improvement in MTTD. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helps ensure data privacy through strategies that manage information in real-time. CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager helps save costs by avoiding risks and future expenses associated with security incidents. It's essential to communicate the value of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager to users, as its controls help improve system security. My role at the company involves service and sales activities.

Has struggled with poor documentation and limited tuning options but supports basic protection needs

The major limitation of this product is that their documentation is very poor; their documentation is extremely poor. Their support is very poor for this product, and the solution is average. To be honest, it's not that effective. Their Threat Scan Engine has features that don't work properly; they have features that really don't work properly. Their solution provides writing style verification, but this solution comes with false positives 60% of the time. There is no way from their portal to fix it; you can either turn it off or turn it on. The solution has many bugs. I will recommend Microsoft first for replacing Trend Micro ScanMail, then Barracuda, but the problem with Barracuda is that for impersonation solutions, it doesn't work well. There are many features, but you cannot tune the product. Being able to tune a product is really important; such as adjusting settings to be aggressive, minimal, or to exclude certain things. These are the most important considerations when purchasing a product. When impersonation is needed, but there are false positives, there should be an option to tune the product. Barracuda and Trend Micro Deep Security lack this feature, which is pathetic.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We did immediately begin to see results when using CyberArk."

"Our setup process is moving to the cloud, which is very good. It reduces complexity."

"It doesn't affect operational efficiency. If you set everything correctly, the user doesn't notice that it is in the background."

"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager has significantly improved our security posture by preventing virus incidents and restricting users from downloading unwanted applications."

"Their customer support was excellent."

"The most valuable features of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager are password management, session management, onboarding rules, platform customization, and safety management."

"The product is very flexible"

"The biggest benefit of CyberArk EPM for our customers is control over privileged access for endpoints. Endpoints are often the starting point for attackers to enter and move within a network. CyberArk EPM bridges the gap between security and operations teams. Operations teams are happy because work isn't stopped due to admin rights issues, while security teams are satisfied that full admin rights aren't given to all users."

More CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager pros

"The pricing of Trend Micro ScanMail is average, which is fine."

"It does the job. Even when our clients have a very high rate of emails per second, there has been no problem."

"Trend Micro ScanMail is scalable at different levels."

"I like that Trend Micro ScanMail is very effective and quite strong."

"I find Trend Micro ScanMail to be a stable solution, and I would rate its stability as nine out of ten."

"The analysis part is good."

"The most effective feature of ScanMail is its real-time antivirus behaviors, particularly when it scans URLs."

More Trend Micro ScanMail [EOL] pros

Cons

"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is not suitable for the current situation because when you compare it to OTP, OTP is the strongest password solution. You can use it as a one-time password, but you have to log into the password manager itself and if you don't change your password, it will be the weakest link in the security. In OTP, you don't have that weakest link."

"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."

"What I would really like to see improved is the AIM (Application Identity Manager). I think that it could be simpler to use, and much more straight forward."

"Can be improved by allowing computers to be excluded from policies."

"The product's threat protection and defense capabilities need enhancement."

"If you do not have certification, you cannot send a ticket; this makes dealing with technical support difficult."

"It is hard to deal with technical support if you are not certified."

"For an experienced system implementer it will take approximately one day. However, for somebody who is inexperienced it may take up to five days."

More CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager cons

"ScanMail was one of the best solutions a few years ago, but it is no longer the best solution because of its old-fashioned management console."

"I believe there is room for improvement in better signatures, better reporting features, and more insight into the spam emails database."

"ScanMail needs improvement in its reporting, as it is currently weak in some areas."

"Its user interface is pretty old-fashioned, and sometimes, it's hard to find the features that you are looking for. The user interface definitely needs some improvement."

"ScanMail was one of the best solutions a few years ago, but it is no longer the best solution because of its old-fashioned management console. Customers associate it with something that is old because there is no change in the management console. It has old icons, and it is not fresh enough. It is also not easy to use or play with. The report engine is also old-fashioned. Customers want something easier, quicker, and cleaner."

"The price could be better. But it would be better if they made it a little cheaper and more cost-effective."

"The weaknesses of Trend Micro ScanMail are that it doesn't fully protect ad-based web access and lacks proper security for Outlook, iOS, and web browser access."

"Even Trend Micro ScanMail support staff are not familiar with this product."

More Trend Micro ScanMail [EOL] cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Although I do not deal directly with the pricing, CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is costly compared to other solutions. However, it offers beneficial features."

"It's not at the lower end of the market. I think the price is reasonable considering the quality it delivers. It is a top-notch solution at a fair price point."

"licensing for this solution is based on the number of APV (privileged users), and the number of sessions that you want to record."

"I rate the solution's pricing an eight out of ten since the price can be too high for smaller businesses."

"Pricing depends on how many devices you use. Right now, on-premise, it costs us a little, but it's worth it. It seems like the cloud solution is much more expensive. We got this solution one year ago, and it's like we bought the solution, and now they are not going to support it on-premise anymore. We are in the implementation phase, and we missed this, and we already paid for the licenses. This is wasted time from my perspective, and CyberArk should be more customer-friendly."

"CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is slightly expensive, but costs can be negotiated to become more competitive."

"The price of CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager is expensive."

"The tool's pricing is reasonable for customers."

More CyberArk Endpoint Privilege Manager pricing and cost advice

"It is an expensive solution. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten."

"Its price is okay. It is not too high."

"It's a yearly subscription, but the price could be better."
