Gained full visibility and streamlined threat detection through behavior-based insights and AI integration
Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth. We have fine-tuned our security policies and allowed different levels of policies to get rid of those false positives. Currently, we are getting a fairly good amount of incidents that are not false positives or benign, but actionable items. The process is streamlined. In the initial days, the operations used to get involved in a lot of benign and other activities, but now the process is streamlined. We are leveraging the auto-detection and remediation plans. The operations teams are now more involved in other business roles as well, not just looking into the logs and fetching out what's happening there. They have fixed a lot of things. Initially, they didn't have IAC code drift detection, cloud posture management, or security posture management, but they have those now. They purchased different vendors and did a merger with that. They have now Prisma Cloud that gets integrated and now they are working with Cortex Cloud. Everything that was negative has now been addressed, and the product altogether looks to be in a very better and mature shape now. Currently, it's more or less detecting the workloads with AI-based best practices. Since most organizations are consuming AI agents and other things, we are looking forward to seeing what other feature enhancements Palo Alto can support in that.

Exceptional malware protection with regular updates and behavior-based detection
There are no built-in backups or integrated backup options, which could be an opportunity. The free version is effective, however, the paid version is pricey compared to it. Other customers have mentioned issues with false positives. It lacks enterprise-level management and more enterprise functionality. CrowdStrike and SentinelOne are much more enterprise-grade solutions. Malwarebytes has limited integration with cybersecurity tools and lacks enterprise integrations because it is not an enterprise product.

Centralized console has improved visibility while setup remains quick on diverse environments
I don't know why I find it valuable; my colleague administrated it, but I was the chief of a team of six people, and one of them administered this product, which worked well for defending our servers. I don't know what the best features of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security are; it performs well compared to other products, and I am curious about it, but I cannot think of specific features. Perhaps my colleagues could provide that information, but I do not have that knowledge. The centralized console helps my team greatly; it is very convenient as everything is all in one console, not only EDR but many other products, such as email security and XDR features. Trend Vision One Endpoint Security positively impacts our organization as it is very simple to install on Windows and Linux servers; it is not very difficult to install.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution's stability is generally good."
"The solution allows us to make investigations. Other XDR solutions also provide similar capabilities but for investigation, Cortex XDR is better."
"My advice for anybody who is considering Cortex XDR is that it is a complete solution, and has very good features."
"Threat identification and detection are the most valuable features of this solution."
"The protection offered by this product is good, as is the endpoint reporting."
"Their XDR agent and their behavioral indicators of compromise (BIOC) are pretty nice. Their managed threat hunting is also pretty nice. They also have WildFire, which is a service for actively looking for malware. It's quite useful."
"Cortex is a very good total solution on the endpoints."
"The scalability of Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is very good."
"We don't have to spend any time remediating bad things happening: Not viruses nor ransomware."
"The solution has a good management interface."
"The central management of devices from different sites is a very good feature; this has made them much easier to manage."
"The technical support services are good."
"The product provides notifications for suspicious events. We have several public access points. The product helps to prevent unauthorized entry. Its most valuable features are pre-installation procedures and a cloud console. The console's interface is simple and can be viewed easily to take action. It covers everything in terms of security threats."
"The solution was successfully deployed and so far has been able to stop all ransomware attacks, which has been extremely beneficial to the organization."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is that I can use it wherever I want, be it at the office, at home, or even outside."
"The solution is very good at scanning."
"It's easier to integrate Apex One than Kaspersky; it also performs well, and the customer feedback has been positive."
"The most valuable features of Trend Micro Apex One are it has its own machine learning and it is quite fast, compared with the other solutions."
"The main benefit is the threat intelligence network of Trend Micro."
"It is updated automatically without much intervention from our side. We can also get some reports easily."
"The solution is very stable; it doesn't crash or freeze, there aren't bugs or glitches, and we find it to be very reliable at all times."
"The product offers almost all of the features the client expects from such a solution."
"It is very precise and allows more permission for different use cases."
"Its scalability and the central point of XDR so that all items are centrally reporting to one solution are the most valuable features."
 

Cons

"Initially, we got to have a lot of false positives when we onboarded, but nowadays it's quite smooth."
"The dashboard could use some significant improvement, just making it more useful with more information."
"Although I would say this product is highly-rated, it could probably do more because nothing does everything that you want."
"It's more focused on network communication. If a customer wants to increase the level of protection and start working with documents, it's impossible to integrate these features into the system. It's more of a communication-oriented system than a content security-oriented system."
"As an improvement, I would like to see enhanced connection speeds."
"There is a severe gap in functionality between Windows, Linux, and Mac versions."
"Every 30 or 40 days, there's a new version and we need to go and make sure our customer's laptops are upgraded."
"There are some false positives. What our guys would have liked is that it would have been easier to manipulate as soon as they found a false positive that they knew was a false positive. How to do so was not obvious. Some people complained about it. The interface, the ESM, is not user-friendly."
"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."
"Malwarebytes is too simplistic. From a SOC IR perspective, it doesn't give you very much data around it. It doesn't tie things or provide SHA-1 and SHA-256 detection information, which makes it hard to do an additional investigation."
"The product update capability needs to be improved."
"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."
"I would like to see integration with other vendors going forward."
"It would be better if updates could be downloaded, and deployed, on-premises to avoid low bandwidth causing issues."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"I would like to see a little more detail in the log. So, when an event occurs, I'd like to know not just when it happened and on what device, but what activity was taking place on the machine at the time so that we can drill down. If we get a false positive, we have to do a lot of research and go back and forth with our end-users to know why it was a false positive. So, having a little more detail around detections and events would probably be my most asked feature."
"I can't think of any specific areas that need improvement."
"Trend Micro Apex One could include more in-depth endpoint protection."
"All the features in Trend Micro Apex One are not compatible or functional for all the different operating systems. For example, they have fewer features in other operating systems compared to what they have for Microsoft Windows. It would be nice if they could have one solution which all functions work on all kinds of operating systems. It would be much easier for those who have different operating systems in their environment to have one solution."
"More integration with different platforms would be great, as everyone seems to want the solution to integrate with each team."
"There were challenges in uninstalling the Trend Micro solution from certain endpoints."
"I think there could be improvement in a couple of areas, particularly with technical support and making the solution more user friendly."
"Its pricing should be improved. In some cases, the user interface was not ready for our proof of concept. It wasn't a beta phase service."
"The scans in Trend Micro Apex One take a very long time and it takes up my system resources."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It has reasonable pricing for the use cases it provides to the company."
"It is present, but when compared to other competitive products, I would say it is not less expensive; however, when all of the other added values are considered, the price is reasonable."
"The return on investment is from the user side because we have seen the performance of it increase the delivery time of the product if we are using too many web-based and on-premise applications. In indirect ways, we saw the return of investment in terms of performance and user satisfaction increase."
"I am using the Community edition."
"Cortex XDR by Palo Alto Networks is quite an expensive solution."
"The pricing is a little bit on the expensive side."
"Our license will require renewal in August, after which the maintenance will continue as usual."
"It is "expensive" and flexible."
"The platform pricing is competitive with other antivirus products."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"The price of Malwarebytes is in the middle range compared to other vendors."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."
"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."
"The licensing is per seat, with clients being a little less expensive than servers. If we need more licenses, we can accomplish that within a day. As Malwarebytes adds new features to their product, such as DNS filtering and a patching module, they want to charge us more even though we're a premium user, which isn't ideal."
"Its licensing is annual. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"I believe the retail price is between $40 and $50 per copy."
"The price is reasonable."
"The SaaS version is competitively priced and amazingly easy to set up."
"Licensing costs depend completely on the number of users or licenses. They have a specific pricing structure. For example, if you are looking for 100 users to be on the product, in the Indian market (we're based in India), the cost is nearly $2,500 to $3,000 maximum for one three-year license."
"I think that this product is expensive."
"The license is expensive but it is a complete solution."
"Currently, the price for Trend Micro Apex One is good and there are no extra costs attached."
"Trend Micro Apex One is priced well."
"The license fee for 300 users is approximately $2,000 USD and $500 USD for the implementation cost."
