Reliability and threat intelligence make this solution competitive, but AI improvements can further enhance its effectiveness
The best features of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector include its reliability. The second valuable feature is its built-in sandbox feature, allowing for inspection of incoming emails and attachments. The sandbox is an appliance that opens any attachment in an enclosed environment to assess its impact and potential for viruses. This protects the network from harmful threats. Trend Micro has a very large R&D team with excellent threat intel, allowing them to provide better solutions than some competitors. They understand emerging threats based on the information from their EDR. The key strengths can be summarized as reliability, a good integrated one-box solution that includes a sandbox, and their R&D capabilities and good ratings, which lead to better threat intelligence. The detailed threat intelligence provided by Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is valuable in understanding the behavior and tactics of potential email threats.

Pros

"Menlo Security RBI's best feature is its threat isolation engine."
"I can't say that there is one specific feature that is most valuable. It's the overall platform that is well-suited to our needs. It's something that is different from a lot of other products or platforms in the marketplace."
"The best features of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector include its reliability."
"The solution's most valuable features include visibility into the network and fast sandboxing technology for alerts, though response time can vary."
"Trend Micro is a very good product."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is the simple analysis of phishing emails."
"I find Trend Micro to be a good solution for security purposes."
"I highly recommend Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector due to its security and scalability features."
"I would rate the solution's stability at ten out of ten."
"I like that it is very user-friendly and easy to install."
 

Cons

"There are several features, such as supporting web technologies, that the company is working on implementing in the platform. There are a lot of backend web technologies in use on various websites, for example, two-way audio/video and WebGL, for which support may not be fully implemented in the product."
"Menlo Security RBI could be more cloud-friendly, and its mobility could be improved."
"To improve Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector, it should have updates with better AI and ML-based integration."
"The product's feature for message processing and blocking devices for bulk emails needs improvement."
"The tool needs to incorporate faster response times for issue detection, more detailed reports, and better compatibility with older operating systems (e.g., Windows 7, 8, Server 2012)."
"I would like to be able to send emails to a specific sandbox. This is a feature I would like to see added to the next release."
"Trend Micro's technical support has room for improvement. More efficient support should be provided, especially for standard support."
"It could be more user-friendly, easier to install, and lighter on the network. I would say that for all products because you do not need technical expertise to take care of it. When you have a user-friendly solution, it makes it easier for the vendors or companies like us. We do not have to go to the client's site to attend to issues all the time. Because it is user-friendly, they can take care of it after some training."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector could improve by making it easier to use. Microsoft solutions are easier to use."
"Trend Micro's technical support has room for improvement."

"The price of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is less expensive than Microsoft solutions."
"We pay for an annual subscription for this email security solution."
"It's an expensive solution, and you may not see a return on investment in a short period of time. However, you will see a return over a long period of time."
