Trend Micro Apex One Reviews

We are a solution provider and Apex One is one of the products that we provide to our customers. It is used as part of a security and antivirus solution.

The most valuable feature is the behavior monitoring.

The interface is user-friendly. Even people without IT experience can easily make use of machine learning or predictive analytics.

When I was setting this up for one of my clients, I was not able to deploy the DLP. It was not working and I think that this area is in need of improvement.

Our team has been working with Apex One for almost two and a half years, although I have been working with it myself for between six and seven months.

Our customers are very satisfied with the stability and the product overall.

I have 20 to 30 clients who use this product.

The technical support is very good, although it takes some time to get connected to them. Once they are available then the support is fine.

We have been using Apex One since it was the OfficeScan product. We are currently in the process of upgrading and we are having some issues with the process. We would like a better solution but they are not providing one for us.

The deployment takes between two and two and a half hours.

We handle the deployment for our customers.

This is a mature product that is nice to use.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.

I think the classic product, which is the endpoint protection, and the antivirus and security suite for the endpoint are all good.

They have gateway protection for emails, but they're not good enough. They really have to improve it. They really have to improve it because it produces many false positives with spam.

The pricing can always be improved upon. Newly added features should be free.

I find the solution is stable.

I don't have much experience on the scalability but processes and functionality but we have made some tests and some proof of concept to the data link prevention and it works good and it was easy to configure. But it did not expand to other functionalities, like mobile endpoint etc. We don't have such usage here. We're a small company. We have 230 users.

Technical support is very slow. There is no French support. Only English. The experts are in England, the United States, or Japan, I don't know where. So the support is really lacking. We'll have to fight against the false positives, that's a little bit hard.

The initial setup was straightforward. It's easy.

We had integrators the first time but we continued on our own.

I think the solution is a classic, really basic software. It's good enough. The footprint on the computer is not very heavy, it's not heavy at all and I think it has a good signature database. From holistic function, it gives a good enough performance.

I think they have additional features but not for the new products with new licenses and all the new protections like the EDL or remediation. I think they added new features, but you have to pay, they did not just scale the basic product but I think it's about marketing and income.

I would recommend this product for endpoint protection. Not for the hosted email security and other services on the emails.

I would rate this solution at seven our of 10.

There are multiple components to our use case and one of them is the anti-virus.

The most valuable feature is Vulnerability Protection.

We are completely satisfied with the functionality of the product, but the reporting should be more granular.

We have been using this solution for the last three years.

There have been limitations at times.

We have more than 3,000 users.

Technical support is good.

The initial setup was straightforward. It was not complex.

Compared to other products on the market, I think that the pricing is reasonable. We are satisfied with the licensing model.

Depending on the requirement, I would recommend this solution, although it should have more granular reporting.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We have been a Trend client for some time and we looked at this product as the next evolution. We had servers on-prem to manage our Trend install and we went with the Apex One real-time monitoring solution. Being cloud-based meant we didn't have to worry about upgrading the backend servers. We could also be sure that the regular disk came down to the components and that they will update properly on each one of our devices. We are customers of Trend and I'm the manager of our company. 

The nice thing about this product is that there is no down time in terms of the backend having to be updated because of the cloud, so it's basically real time and the work stations can be updated externally as well. It doesn't require people being connected to the net, like our nomadic users. The client goes out and pulls the necessary updates directly from the cloud.

From the client perspective, there are situations where some of the updates still require a complete reboot of the system and the problem there is from an end user perspective. We have to make sure, particularly with people who work remotely, that they actually are rebooting their machines and not just putting them to sleep. If the updates didn't require rebooting that would make a big difference. 

I'd like to see a single back pane between the end points as well as on the service side of things. I know they're working on that at the present time and it will be great when it's done.

We've been using this solution for some time. 

The stability is good and there's a better capture rate in terms of reporting as well, because now you get to see all your machines in and out of your network.

It's a very scalable solultion, more so now that it's not dependent on my back end.

We use the support and find them quite good. I have someone who deals with the tickets that arise out of Apex One. We have set up a system where anytime there's an issue, virus or whatever, the back end will let us know what was done on a particular machine and it can be validated once the process is complete. We get notifications into our ticketing system if any work has been done. The support for implementation is also good, and they're very responsive. If you have an issue with any kind of malware, they help with that too. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

We use this solution daily. It provides us with 99% of antivirus precautionary care and prevention of email threats.

We use several Trend Micro solutions. We use Trend Micro OfficeScan, DDM and DDI. We are also using IMSVA and WSVA for email security and web security. After deploying OfficeScan, we have found more detections of possible virus attacks.

The DDAN and the sandboxing features are very good and accurate.

I am expecting an Apple featured IDLP solution with OfficeScan, where we have only IDLP. Also, the ADR functionality in our OfficeScan solution would be a nice addition. Genrally, the ADR solutions are the only failed ends of the solutions we have found with Trend Micro.

Tech support needs improvement. We raised certain cases regarding a lag in terms of a solution, and the response time was slow. 

We previously used McAfee and Symantec. 

It was initially straightforward. It took multiple phases. 

Pricing and licensing are competitive with other solutions on the market.

It is mainly used for endpoint security. It can be deployed on-premises or on the cloud, so it is a fairly hybrid product.

It is very stable. It also has good security capabilities. It is a strong security product for endpoint protection.

It would be great it can support endpoint encryption.

I have been using this solution for two years.

It is very stable.

We are securing more than 15,000 endpoints with this solution.

Their technical support is okay. They have a good support mechanism.

We have replaced Symantec and McAfee with Trend Micro Apex One.

Its installation has medium complexity. It is not very difficult, but it is also not that easy. It is an endpoint product, and the installation also depends on the number of users. The maximum number of individual deployments that we have done was about 8,000 users. We had around five engineers who worked for around three months for the entire deployment.

It has a per-user license.

I would recommend this solution. I would rate Trend Micro Apex One a nine out of ten.

We are a solution provider and Trend Micro Apex One is one of the products that we implement for our customers. It is used for endpoint security.

The most valuable features are the vulnerability protection and virtual patching.

This solution scans for vulnerabilities that can originate from anywhere around the world.

This is a product that is always up to date.

Integration with third-party products is supported.

The reports are not eye-catching from the customer's point of view, which is something that should be improved.

We have been working with Apex One for three years.

We have had no complaints from our customers about stability.

Our customers are satisfied with the scalability of Apex One.

The support provided by Trend Micro is very good. We have had no issues with them.

We have worked with Carbon Black and their solutions do not compare with Trend Micro.

The initial setup is straightforward. The length of time required for deployment depends on the customer's environment and what other products they have. The average time to deploy Apex One is about two and a half months, which includes integration, client setup, and other things.

Our clients generally do not have to do any maintenance because everything is updated through the Trend Micro Smart Protection Server.

This is definitely a product that I recommend. That said, there is no product on the market that is 100%.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

Our primary use case for this solution is protecting clients. We have an on-premises deployment.

This solution protects us from virus attacks before they affect the organization.

The most valuable feature of this solution is the threat protection functionality.

The alert, or warning function, needs to be improved. Two days ago I received an email from the system regarding an incident that was detected with a client who received a great deal of spam, in excess of forty-five thousand emails.

I think that the stability of this solution is very high. It is always running and it doesn't abuse system resources.

This solution is extremely scalable.

I have not contacted technical support for this solution.

At my previous job, I used Norton (Symantec). When I changed companies I started using this solution, by Trend Micro.

The initial setup of this solution is extremely simple. It is deployed from our SCCM solution, so it happens automatically. 

I think that this product is expensive.

This is a product that I recommend, as it does exactly what it's supposed to do.

The biggest lesson that I have learned from using this solution is that it's difficult to always be one step ahead of the guys that are introducing malware, but I think that Trend Micro is doing a good job. They are always updating their product.

Overall, I am very happy with this solution, and it does what is advertised.

I would rate this solution an eight out of ten.
