Trend Micro Mobile Security Room for Improvement

The only disadvantage I see is that my mobile is very slow after installing this scanner.
There's no latency, but the response is slow; if the previous response without mobile security was 10 out of 10, with mobile security it's 8 out of 10. WhatsApp messages arrive only when I open the app; otherwise, they do not arrive.
This is the major problem bothering me today, nothing apart from this.
It's very slow; I might need to consider the model I am using since I have a middle-level Samsung mobile, while others use high-end devices.
View full review »Regarding security, they are at the top of their game. Their security capabilities are quite strong. However, they could improve the prices of Trend Micro Mobile Security products, which are quite expensive. Additionally, some of their products are not user-based, meaning the licensing is based on database or traffic volume. For example, email security, especially when using it on the cloud, requires a device or hardware at the gateway to protect emails. The cost depends on the traffic volume, which can become quite expensive depending on how much traffic passes through.

The main challenge with Trend Micro Mobile Security for iPhone users is the complex setup process due to Apple's stringent security requirements. This results in additional steps, making the process confusing for non-technical users.

There is always room for improvement in security.
View full review »From a technical point of view, I don't have much to give in terms of feedback on what could be improved. But there have been some users who have been complaining about the interface being unfriendly and when the application software is installed on their phone making their mobile slow, a little bit laggy. It should be taking less processing. It just depends on the mobile phone.
Apart from this, I haven't seen many use-cases of it being deployed on a large scale. We haven't had the experience of it deployed on a very large scale so I'm not sure how it would perform in that environment, so I can't say anything about this.
