"Installing and integrating ESET Endpoint Antivirus was easy. It prevents worms, malware, and Trojans."
"The features seem to be alright."
"It hasn't crashed a single time, so it is stable in that sense."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is its stability across all platforms."
"I find Trend Micro Cloud App Security useful for scanning our email boxes. We can scan them one by one, which is a good feature. It's not just gateway-level protection - we integrate the email system with it. They have special protection and parameters for phishing emails."
"Trend Micro Cloud App is easy to use and easy to install."

Cons

"The software has room for improvement in terms of CPU and other resource usage."
"We have experienced some problems with the actualization of some endpoints. We then have to manually reinstall the version on these endpoints."
"ESET Endpoint Antivirus can improve by having better EDR intelligence and automation. The EDR still needs lots of human interpretation. It can be better if add more intelligence to the EDR part of the endpoint protection."
"The update process can be improved, and there could be an automatic update process when a new version comes out. For system updates or program updates, there could be more automation."
"The detection could be better in ESET Endpoint Security. Sometimes it takes time to detect threats and might be because it's not holding all the memory. There are some features that have to mature. More features might be available in the higher-end product."
"ESET's updates are mostly manual. That's my biggest concern. I'd like it to be more automatic. I've had to download the new version and run it manually to install it. I've got several workstations like that right now."
"Sometimes, ESET sends alerts within my own network that cause confusion. That is, it might warn about contamination, or that the VM has crashed, but it doesn't go further than that. It just shows me the alert and sometimes I am not sure what to do about it."
"They should have better support for different languages and auto-upgrading."
"For improvements, I think it would be great if Trend Micro Cloud App Security could enhance their product to be a single SASE solution. It should be similar to competitors like Palo Alto."
"Documentation could be improved; product cost is quite high."
"They should provide separate corporate-level licenses for two to three instances."
"It would be great if Trend Mail Cloud App Security would be joined with a web security solution, making it a multiple-network solution."
"The granulation of the policy setup needs to be better. Right now, it is too basic."
"The price of the solution could improve by being lower."
"The solution's technical support services could be better."
"In the next release, I would like to see the cost go down."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price could be a little lower."
"The cost of the solution is hard to justify even if the EDR operates well."
"It is subjective. I don't think it is expensive. If you can have 10 user licenses for less than $100, I don't think it is expensive."
"Its price is reasonable."
"Pricing of ESET Endpoint Security is within the market pricing."
"The pricing can be a bit more flexible."
"This is not an expensive product."
"It is just under $20 a user per year, and there are no additional costs. I would rate it a five out of five in terms of pricing."
"The cost of the license is on the high side. It's a yearly subscription."
"The product's pricing is reasonable compared to other vendors."
"The price of Trend Micro Cloud App Security is expensive for regular users. There are not any hidden fees. First-time users of the solution should purchase implementation packages or professional services."
"The solution's price is mid-ranged."
"The pricing of the solution could be better."
