Pros
"The most valuable features are the protection and that it is fast.""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 HTML file sandboxing is very good.""There is no downtime or server vulnerability with this solution.""The platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration.""Initial setup is easy. It can be done by yourself.""The product is very easy to install.""The tool's most valuable feature is its collaboration with other products.

"The initial setup is straightforward and easy in comparison with other solutions.""The product's most valuable feature is complete SSL inspection.""The best feature is that Zscaler allows for a separation between cloud applications and URL filtering. For example, under the cloud application segment, I can bypass Microsoft Office 365 without the need to add URLs manually. It's one click, so that's handy.""Cloud IPS integration is seamless, and it uses a Zero Trust model. It also simplifies overall user access management.""The initial setup process is easy."

Cons
"Scalability becomes an issue when managing a higher number of customers.""I would like to see integration with third-party tools to improve the visibility of the dashboards.""The product's scalability feature needs to be improved, as it is an area in the product with certain shortcomings.""Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active.""The solution needs improvement in terms of pricing.""The solution could be more secure.""The tool's configuration can be made easier.""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."

More Trend Micro Deep Discovery Cons →

"They have given limited free access for a year. Instead, they should increase the file size and give limited free access for around two months. It will allow engineers to evaluate the product.""There is always room for improvement.""When it comes to scalability, the IPsec could be improved.""We recently had a significant issue with Zscaler. I think they have too many customers and some of their connection edge nodes went down because there were too many requests. I think they aren't scaling enough to keep up with the demand in some areas. That's one thing they should improve.""We encounter issues sharing IP addresses with other companies using the software."
