Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Virtual patching has protected critical workloads and reduced downtime across financial environments
The best features Trend Micro Deep Security offers include virtual patching and comprehensive protection from multiple modules such as anti-malware, web reputation, firewall, integrity monitoring, and log inspection. It is very user-friendly, easy to understand, and helps us integrate multiple products with Deep Security. The user-friendly aspect and integration of Trend Micro Deep Security have helped my team significantly. For example, we can integrate our SIEM product, Active Directory, and multiple platforms. If an operations engineer cannot find something or forgets about a suspicious activity, we can identify the suspicious thing with the help of the SIEM. With Active Directory, we maintain our compliance, checking which server has Deep Security and which does not. By integrating these solutions, we effectively maintain compliance in our environment. Trend Micro Deep Security has positively impacted our organization because we have implemented it for multiple purposes, primarily for server security. It is installed on both multiple virtual and physical servers with minimal performance impact. It has been extremely stable throughout our usage, with no major disturbances.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"CylancePROTECT works on AI technology, is always up to date, and uses very few resources on your devices."
"CylancePROTECT is a fairly decent antivirus."
"The solution is stable."
"I like the AI and mathematical components that they use."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"The solution runs in the background, and I do not need to care about it."
"The customer service/technical support for this solution is very fast."
"The most valuable features of the solution we have enabled in our organization are its anti-malware capabilities, applications, web reputation, and integrity monitoring."
"There are a good signature set and a high rate of detection."
"It provides security and protection. The endpoint firewall is valuable."
"Support in Trend Micro Deep Security is very good. They have very professional engineers, and they often respond effectively. We are satisfied."
"The solution is quite secure."
"It's scalable."
"The solution has a low footprint and does not have a lot of impact on the host."
 

Cons

"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."
"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"I would say one thing that they might need to bring in is protection for mobile devices."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable."
"If they can add more features on top of their Persona feature that would be ideal."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"It's a good solution but some features just need to be updated."
"It would be helpful if they could send emails notifying their users about the recommended upgraded versions to address the newly discovered vulnerabilities."
"Their support should be improved. We need support in the UAE, but it is always going to some other country or region, and the time schedule is not suitable for us."
"The price could be reduced."
"The initial setup needs improvement, as it was a bit challenging."
"Trend Micro is scalable if you have the budget for it."
"The implementation can be inflexible and not easy, as it requires knowledge of things like virtualization and administration on Windows."
"The tool needs to improve its subscription."
"The cost is very high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"Do not get hung up on price. You pay for what you get and expensive will hurt one time, where cheap will hurt forever, especially if you fall victim to a ransom attack, etc.​"
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"Our licensing cost for the solution is around $4,000 for six months. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The price is reasonably good as compared to other products into the market."
"If you need an additional 10 or 20 licenses, you will need to pay additional fees."
"The product has a high price in Kuwait."
"We have saved a 50% ROI for the on-premise product. It gave us significant improvement overall in productivity, costs, and efficiency."
"Trend Micro Deep Security is average compared to other products on the market; it's neither particularly expensive nor cheap."
"Most of it is annual at this stage."
"Trend Micro Deep Security is quite expensive."
"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."
