VivekSaini - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive vulnerability management improves security assessments
The platform scans the entire environment and IP range, providing comprehensive vulnerability reports along with solutions to address these vulnerabilities. Its features are extensive and it produces proper results, although there may be occasional false positives. It also categorizes risks based on severity, though further evaluation is necessary for our specific environment.
Nadeem Syed - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers sandboxing unit and virtual patch management, stop all the vulnerabilities and exploits
It's a good product. It's taken the majority of the market share in Pakistan from any other product; the major feature of Deep Security is its virtual patching management, which they download on the cloud. They stop all the vulnerabilities and exploits as long as you don't download all the updates and install them physically on the servers. So, in that sense, it is a very good product. And we've been selling it for a long time; it's been four to five years. And we have a lot of customers for it. Trend Micro Deep Security has a sandboxing unit, which is one of the major features that actually gives you a chance to detect any kind of threat in your network or on your servers. Also, if users truly want to secure their network and the servers, they may want to use XDR as well, which has all these features we just discussed.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Qualys offers versatility. It can function both with and without agents, offering flexibility in deployment. Furthermore, it provides comprehensive support for various systems such as Windows Server, Unix servers, and databases, including SQL, Oracle, and others for development."
"Qualys Enterprise TruRisk Platform is considered a good leader in its field."
"The solution provides ease of use, especially from non-technical testing. It's one of the best things. The deployment process is one of the easiest things because we didn't train our on-site consultant. The constant training from Trend Micro's side is that they develop internal causes to understand the upgrade because once they upgrade the platform, they also upgrade the technical person's skills."
"Signatures are frequently updated."
"It's easy to use and the interface is simple."
"The initial setup was straightforward and we didn't have any problem with it."
"It's scalable."
"The integration options of Trend Micro Deep Security have been particularly valuable."
"I switched to Trend Micro because of its good marketing techniques."
"Very user-friendly interface, easy to understand."
 

Cons

"The report sometimes inaccurately identifies the corresponding operating system version."
"The solution could use more integration."
"The support for email protection can be improved."
"I would like to see XDR features and endpoint sensor become available."
"Trend Micro can interact with their consultant to ensure that we receive constant training to understand their platform and how to improve it."
"The client can show as offline sometimes, and that becomes a bit difficult for troubleshooting. We end up basically redeploying the client. This is something that could be improved in the future."
"AWS products could become more compatible with intrusion detection products leveraging help from Trend Micro."
"I would rate tech support in the range of six to eight out of 10. Time to provide solution could be improved."
"There could be a centralized management server to oversee all platform functionalities."
