The CREM feature is an absolutely essential feature that helps us meet security requirements
Since we started using Trend Vision One, we've been able to enhance our security posture significantly. Trend Vision One has improved significantly over time in providing centralized visibility and control. It started as a set of individual products, but now it feels like one integrated solution. This reduces the need for interfaces or multiple analysis tools. That's why we pursued the one-platform strategy. Trend Vision One has definitely helped consolidate our use of security vendors. We previously used standalone products for endpoint and email protection that weren't integrated. Now, we get the benefits of an integrated solution. I'd estimate we're 50–70% better in security now than we were two years ago. The Cyber Risk Exposure Management (CREM)feature is absolutely essential. Even though we're not critical infrastructure, the NIS2 directive gives us security guidelines. CREM helps us meet these requirements. It is very important to our organization that Trend Vision One integrates AI into the platform. Pattern recognition in forensic data is no longer manageable by humans due to the volume of events. Machine learning is essential to process these and filter what needs human attention. Trend Vision One has improved our organization significantly. Security tasks used to be manual. Now, technology prevents issues or supports staff in detecting them. This shift from manual to technical solutions greatly increased our security. Trend Vision One has reduced the time we spend detecting and responding to threats. I'd say we're 80% faster than before. The platform gives us consolidated data upfront, so we don't have to search for event clues manually. Trend Vision One has helped reduce false alarms. I'd estimate a 50–60% time saving. We have more alerts now than years ago, but also better systems to handle them, making the whole process more efficient. Trend Vision One has helped reduce our cyber risk overall. We now know where gaps are before they become problems, whereas in the past we had to guess. That's a massive improvement. When it comes to operations, the CREM solution helps us identify vulnerabilities in systems. If we patch them, they disappear from the reports—this gives us actionable insights, which is incredibly helpful. It took about half a year to realize the benefits of Trend Vision One after implementation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Flowmon is more easy to understand and helps find network issues more quickly."
"It is an open platform, so in terms of integration, we are quite happy. We can integrate it with other SNMP solutions. We can also integrate it with security solutions, such as a SIEM solution."
"The solution is stable."
"The artificial intelligence and automatic detection system in Flowmon Solution are perfect for every, type of customer, such as government and commerce."
"Flowmon is more easy to understand and helps find network issues more quickly."
"I like the workbench. It is a view of all the alerts or problems in your estate. The visibility that it provides to engineers is very useful. It is one thing having lots of alerts. It is another thing to have something to correlate all your alerts into a workbench for you so that you can see what is going on."
"We haven't had any issues with configurations or customizations."
"I find the maps particularly helpful. The object list, specifically the suspicious object list, is also quite valuable. You can simply add one object to that list to manage it from another solution."
"I like Vision One's observed attack techniques feature. It lets you see what an attacker is doing, how they have tried to exploit a machine, or how malicious code is operating. It helps us discover indicators of compromise so we can write better rules for detection."
"For scalability, I would give a rating of ten out of ten."
"The zero-day vulnerability is valuable."
"Trend Vision One is an integrated platform where I can get all the information about all the endpoints, whether it be a server, laptop, or desktop."
"From an automation point of view, I find the ability to curate and deploy playbooks very helpful. I find that very convenient for us."
 

Cons

"I do not know the detailed pricing."
"It would be helpful to have more details about the monitoring of the infrastructure. It should have support for SNMP. This is something that is currently not there in the product."
"The licensing price could be better."
"If there was better visualization in Flowmon Solution it would be good."
"It would be ideal if they could improve the control of connectivity between sensors."
"The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."
"The solution only supports Windows and Mac. It would be helpful if it could support other OS, such as Linux."
"Vision One's search could be improved. While the platform is very user-friendly, the search feature uses terms that aren't as intuitive."
"Having more variables within the playbook would be useful. It would allow us to have more refined playbooks for the business. It would allow us to take stronger action through a playbook. It will give us confidence to target a particular area of business where our risk tolerance might be higher or lower. We would like to have more granular playbooks."
"The automation capabilities on-premises could be improved, as we currently have to manually activate servers and push policies."
"In terms of improving Trend Vision One, it might sound silly, yet it seems notoriously uncooperative with middle clicks and opening sections in new tabs. I'm a big tab browser, and it feels hitting a brick wall when I have to refresh in a new tab or make a copy of a tab to move forward."
"The integration with third-party tools and with on-premises Active Directory needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It works with a permanent license, and then you can pay for the support. For the gold support, you need to pay yearly."
"The price of the solution could be better."
"The licensing fee accrues only once, but that of support is annual."
"When I compare it to its peers that can do the same, it is cost-effective."
"While the pricing and licensing for Trend Vision One are generally acceptable, the need to purchase additional features separately adds complexity."
"It is very good. The flexibility to temporarily exceed license limits when setting up new devices is helpful, as it allows us to ensure security before purchasing additional licenses."
"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive, and you have to pay for it yearly."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive."
"I feel that Vision One is a bit expensive. As for the pricing or licensing, I would rate it a seven out of ten."
