Support and integration enhance security posture over three years
I don't know if there's something that could be improved. They surprise me. As I mentioned, I returned a month ago. I haven't fully investigated the complete system yet. I must say that we have been with them for around three years. This is amazing because throughout these three years, they have supported us every week. We meet weekly to review results and fix issues together. Apart from occasional days off, this weekly support has been consistent for three years. It's remarkable because many products are sold and then the product teams forget about you, but this isn't the case with Cymulate.

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

"Cymulate has positively impacted our organization by helping us to take care of the efficacy and reviewing the policies and configuration."
"Cymulate is easy to set up, install, and configure."
"The reporting capabilities are very good."
"With Cymulate, the best features are the capacity to test the EDR or malware, anti-malware solution."
"The security validation feature helps my organization in assessing our security posture."
"The most valuable feature for us is the zero-day."
"It is so helpful to have something that pulls all the data into one visual representation of the events."
"We had previously deployed on-premises, and all we had to do was access the designated console and click a button to migrate all on-premises agents to cloud agents."
"Trend Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly."
"Drilling down further, we can analyze how our users are utilizing their workstations, including the websites they visit."
"We've found the pricing to be reasonable."
"The most important features of Vision One include visibility, AI integration, attack pattern analysis, predictive analytics, and centralized visibility and management across protection layers."
"I like XDR's workbench feature and observed attack technique. It generates an alert once certain conditions are met. For example, let's say there's a threat called malicious.exe being deployed on your system. It will generate an alert with information like the file path, location, hash, etc. You also see a relational matrix showing how that file was executed and which processes were installed."
"The centralized visibility is good."
 

Cons

"The reporting process requires significant improvement as it often takes longer than expected and the quality is lacking."
"The way Cymulate works for EDR could be improved, as it drops payload and requires action from the EDR console for remediation, which can block the whole process of Cymulate execution."
"The product must provide consultancy for initial setup."
"I will be honest, we have it, but in the last year, I didn't maintain the system until a month ago."
"We have had some trouble with the agents."
"The cost can be quite high, and it impacts scalability as more simulations require additional expenses."
"The experience of first using Trend Vision One is really difficult due to the steep learning curve."
"Improving the user interface would be helpful—it can be confusing, especially if you do not use it daily."
"I think that continued optimization of the environment towards automation and orchestration, a kind of layer that sits underneath all of the technologies, would be extremely important."
"However, the area where it should improve is that it gets stuck. It does not have that much amount of data. It does not understand easily, and we have to explain it more."
"The features of Trend Vision One are fine—it's the integration that needs work. Especially at the endpoint level, we still feel like we're using an older product that just got plugged into Trend Vision One."
"In comparison to Trellix, one disadvantage of Trend Micro is the DLP feature. Trend Micro has a light DLP, while Trellix offers a perfect DLP."
"In Trend Vision One, there is always room for improvement. The console is well done, but there might be a bit of improvement needed with the app's capabilities."
"Currently, there is nothing specific that needs improvement. Their support is very cooperative, and they provide an educational portal for learning the solution. However, deployment could improve by considering customer environments that are not fully updated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is affordable."
"Cymulate's services are expensive."
"Its price is very decent. It suits our requirements."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"From a pricing standpoint, they're a really good negotiator and they'll work with you."
"Trend Vision One is an expensive product."
"I do not have much visibility to it. It is definitely not a cheap product, but to my knowledge, it is out there with the big wigs in the industry, such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and other EDR/XDR vendors. I had heard, and found out eventually, that their sales teams are very flexible, as more sales teams are."
"The pricing is fair compared to other solutions."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive, and you have to pay for it yearly."
"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."
