"Trend Micro tends to drain the battery running in the background, but apart from that, they need to improve their updates."

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Each license costs about $10/year. It's fairly inexpensive because it's a new product. In Pakistan, no more than two or three companies can apply for mobile protection right now. I don't know if there are ancillary costs above the standard licensing fee."
"Very cheap in cost"
"We have a license that we renew yearly."
