We performed a comparison between ThreatLocker Protect and Trend Micro Deep Discovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is probably the ability to block programs from running. ThreatLocker has some built-in features that make it super easy. You can also contact their support within the program. If you're having issues, you can click on that button and connect with someone in five to 10 seconds."
"Feature-wise, the learning mode and the fact that it's blocking everything are the most valuable. I don't see why more companies don't use the type of product."
"We use ThreatLocker's Allowlisting to whitelist specific applications and prevent unauthorized software from running."
"Every single feature has been invaluable."
"The sandbox functionality is fantastic."
"Using ThreatLocker is effortless because I can access it from an app on my phone, so I can help clients after hours. My client had an issue while I was at dinner, and I didn't have a tech on the problem, but I could deal with it from my phone. I can see what the client is doing and approve or deny it. It helps me deliver better service to my clients when they need it."
"The interface is clean and well-organized, making it simple to navigate and find what we need."
"The biggest improvement has been knowing that something unauthorized isn't going to get installed on anyone’s machines."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its collaboration with other products. Integrating with other security products was simple and easy."
"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox."
"Generally speaking, it just gives us a broad understanding of exactly what kind of threats occur. The submission point, analyzing point, and virtualization are within the environment that it supports. It helped us to improve our security levels and protect our internal network from any threats outside."
"The platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration."
"There is no downtime or server vulnerability with this solution."
"The solution has extension-based features that help it to analyze the environment. The environment can have different platforms like Windows, Linux, and Mac. The tool will give a report which can confirm the analysis of the issues. You can also get clear information on threats or suspicious files."
"The most valuable feature is that the user can customize images of virtual machines in the sandbox functionality. The other vendors only use images that were created by the vendor but not the customer, end-user or partner. This helps to detect advanced threats and attacks."
"The tool's stability and performance are good."
"The portal can be a little overwhelming at times from an administration point of view. It displays a lot of information, and it's all useful. However, sometimes there is too much on the screen to sift through, especially if you're trying to diagnose a client's problem with a piece of software. Maybe something has stopped working since they updated it, and we need to see if ThreatLocker is blocking a component of that software."
"The snapshots used in the ThreatLocker University portal are outdated snippets and have not been updated in conjunction with the portal itself."
"Adding applications to the allowlist can sometimes feel overwhelming."
"Something we have come up against a couple of times is that we have two clients that are software developers. They create software that doesn't have digital signatures and that's not easy to categorize or whitelist with ThreatLocker. We have to go in and make custom rules to allow them to do their work and to be protected from malicious threats."
"ThreatLocker could offer more flexible training, like online or offline classes after hours. The fact that they even provide weekly training makes it seem silly to suggest, but some people can't do it during the day, so they want to train after work. They could also start a podcast about issues they see frequently and what requires attention. A podcast would be helpful to keep us all apprised about what's going on and/or offline training for those people who can't train during the week."
"If you have a thousand computers with ThreatLocker agents on them, when you approve or create a new policy saying that Adobe Reader that matches this hashtag and meets certain criteria is allowed to be installed, it applies at the top level or the organization level. It applies to every computer in the company. When you make that new policy and push it out and it goes out and updates all of the clients. Unfortunately, at this time, it does not look like they stagger the push-out."
"From a reporting perspective, enhancing the ability to customize reports would be beneficial."
"More visibility in the built-ins would be nice."
"Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers."
"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery."
"The product's security features need enhancement."
"The product's scalability feature needs to be improved, as it is an area in the product with certain shortcomings."
"The solution could be more stable and offer more security."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active."
"I would like the ability to analyze all files in our internal network, at the same time on different operating systems. Not just three of them, but as many as possible."
"Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge."
