Director at Business Automation Indore Private Limited
Long-term threat visibility has reduced customer incidents and supports steady recurring revenue
The real-time visibility on network traffic provided by Trend Micro Deep Discovery is good, and my customer is satisfied. My customers have indeed utilized the Threat Intelligence Sharing feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery. The impact of the Threat Intelligence Sharing feature on overall defense and security is positive. The benefit that Deep Discovery brings to our organization is that we get fewer calls from customers, allowing me to focus on other businesses, and we receive year-on-year revenue for renewals.

Experience with offsite backup enhances data integrity and reduces on-premise reliance
One of the features of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection that customers are looking for is immutability. This is the most important feature. With the cloud, Veritas Alta SaaS Protection is actually in the cloud, which means they have unlimited space to do their backups. They can expand on a need-to-need basis. The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore. Currently, it's automated so you just do a click. You select the feature in a graphical interface, making it easy to use even for a newbie.

"The automated recovery feature of Veritas Alta SaaS Protection makes the recovery much easier, as opposed to earlier methods where we were using scripts to do the restore."

"he most valuable feature is that it's not so intrusive with computer resources."
"I would recommend anybody to buy this solution and use it."
"I would recommend this solution because it covers the total scope of Office 365."
"It excels in performance and delivery but they are quiet on the market."
"What I like most about Veritas SaaS Backup is that it is easy to work on and has compatible features."
 

Cons

"The solution needs improvement in terms of pricing."
"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."
"I would like to see them create a rule where It could integrate with the network and start mitigating with auto-detection."
"The product's security features need enhancement."
"The solution could be more secure."
"Deep Discovery is easy to manage, but there is still room for improvement on the administration and operations side. Competing products have a cleaner interface that makes it easier to manage their products. Trend Micro offers a lot of features in one product suite, but it can be unwieldy for the customer to manage all that with a single interface."
"Additionally, better scanning capabilities for third-party applications would ensure comprehensive security without the need for exclusions."
"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery."
"An area for improvement is the product's performance, especially how long it takes to do a job."
"The backup reports and the dashboard need improvement."
"The technical team wasn't very helpful."
"When you finish a project, the client should have the opportunity to browse the files rather than simply ending the contract. Also, it's not possible to recover earlier versions. It should be possible to have a database for recovering files after you finish a contract. There's no solution for this from Veritas."
"The usability of the solution isn't the best."
"In the future, we would like to see support for virtualized machines."
"Technical support can be improved."
"The implementation could be improved. The server setup is very easy, but some specific client implementation, for example, Oracle or SQL servers, are a little bit complicated. they should offer a bit more assistance with the setup for these particular items."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing cost is a bit pricey. We pay a yearly subscription."
"The tool's licensing costs are yearly. There are no additional costs associated with the product."
"The tool’s licensing costs depend on the customers."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is quite expensive compared to other endpoint security products."
"The price of the solution is lower compared to the competition."
"Its price is fine, but Trend Micro can improve the pricing in general. It is a hardware solution. It is based on the number of nodes, and according to the number of nodes, clients decide which box they should acquire. They have to renew their license every year. It is subscription-based."
"Compared to its competitors, Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a little expensive."
"Overall, the price is good."
"This solution is not cheap and not expensive but priced in the mid-range."
"The tool is expensive compared to Veeam."
"The program is quite expensive."
"SaaS Backup isn't the most expensive solution."
