Trend Vision One Endpoint Security Reviews

We primarily use the solution for endpoint protection. We have only used the solution for six months, however, it has already improved the security posture of our organization. 

The solution is good for monitoring endpoints and providing or removing access.

The automatic source updates are quite useful. The agent is installed on the machine and can provide updates to the clients. 

It's an extremely convenient product.

It's great for defending endpoints against threats like malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts. The product provides good protection overall. It helps protect our endpoints against even unknown or stealthy threats. It adapts well against various threats.

Apex One detects ransomware with runtime machine-learning capabilities. This is very important for us. It's protected us well against ransomware.

The product provides a single console for cross-layer detection, threat hunting, and investigation. Having a single layer of control makes things easy. It provides complete end-to-end visibility to the entire IT security environment.

Using it makes the management of threat detection smoother. It's reduced our response times by 60% to 70%.

It has provided us with virtual patching to protect us against vulnerabilities even before a patch is available for the source of the issue. This is very useful. It's a pretty significant aspect of the product.

We've seen a reduction in viruses since moving to ApexOne. We've seen a 50% to 60% reduction in events. 

Using the product as a service on the cloud has helped reduce employee workloads. It's also reduced administrative overhead. 

We'd like to have access to more learning materials to help us understand the solution better. It would be great if the company offered some core courses. 

It would be better if it was easier to administer Apex One. Right now, it is moderate. 

I've been using the solution for the last six months. 

The solution is stable and has met our needs. 

We can increase capacity based on our needs. It is a scalable product.

I haven't had any issues with technical support. 

Neutral

We have used Symantec, among other solutions, in the past. We read about this product and found it was better at endpoint protection. 

The initial setup process was not easy or difficult. It was moderate. You do need to have some knowledge of the solution in order to deploy it effectively.

I don't have any insights in terms of pricing.

We did not evaluate other options before choosing this solution. 

I'm a customer and end-user.

We do not use the solution to integrate with other security products. We don't use any other products.

We have tried to use Trend Micro's managed XDR services in conjunction with Apex One, however, we weren't able to install an agent, so we're looking into it.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. I'd recommend it as a security solution.

We use the solution for endpoint protection. 

Prior to this solution, we used Symantec, and we managed everything locally. When we were researching this product, we liked that it was managed based on region. We had good results following incidents and observed detection capabilities. 

The pricing is very good.

The solution offers quick and timely updates. We also like that the solution is managed by the region. We're in the Asia Pacific. The management is simple and our support does not need to worry as much. 

We have also been able to free up time. We can allocate that time to other tasks. We began to realize the benefits of the solution within six months of implementation. 

At the moment, we have no issues with the product. However, we do not have much control as we have to work with regional policies and regional support. I'm not sure if this is an HP item or a Trend Micro program issue. Nevertheless, product-wise, we have no concerns. 

Trend Micro has mentioned the potential for EDR functionality. We are excited about that. It will be good not to have a separate license for ADA. 

I've been working with the solution for four years.

The solution is stable. 

The solution scales well. 

We don't have any interaction with Trend Micro's technical support. We do have local support, however, our interactions with them are very minimal. We might ask questions about bugs we've found, but that's it. They respond quickly.

Positive

We also use Cisco. 

In the past, we used Symantec, but we no longer use it. Once we evaluated Trend Micro, we decided to switch. 

The initial setup is very straightforward. There were no complexities. It only takes one or two minutes to deploy. We have the product in multiple locations and branches.

Our support handled the product's initial setup. We didn't need any assistance. 

While I cannot put the ROI into financial terms, in terms of operations it's quite good. We have fewer incidents and the response time is quick for virus-related issues. We can resolve events faster and we might have noted a 50% ROI.

The product's price is fair. We get a regional discount. There are also regional maintenance costs that are not connected to Trend Micro directly. They are part of a service we have. 

We did not evaluate other options before choosing Trend Micro. 

We use the product's latest version. 

I'd rate the solution a nine out of ten. 

The solution is used for security management in the broadest sense. It was for antivirus and malware scanning. 

The client already phased the product out. However, it was used as endpoint protection.

I only worked with it for a couple of months, and we phased it out due to some technical reasons.  

The cloud-based management portal was okay.

It does help prevent various threats. While it's protecting in a broader sense, the issue is I can't see the results of what is happening. 

ApexOne does integrate with other security products. We had a different solution from Trend Micro running. We also are running a server-based solution available from Trend Micro, although they were not necessarily integrated. 

We had it installed within a Microsoft environment. 

If you are an administrator who needs to access the console, it's pretty straightforward. It's easy to administer ApexOne.

The solution provides you with virtual patching to protect against vulnerabilities. 

We were able to use Trend Micro's XDR services in conjunction with ApexOne. It helped give us some extra insights and additional security measurements.

In terms of protecting points against threats, it's hard to answer the question. I'd only worked for it for a couple of months. From what I'd seen, we weren't able to see well reporting-wise. For example, what it does, what it catches, and what it prevents, Defender 365 is way more advanced and transparent. The reporting can be improved. We'd like to have had broader insights as to what was happening on a machine.

As a user or as an administrator, you should be able to see what the product actually does. You would like to see what's happening. What's scanning, et cetera, and it doesn't do a good job like Defender 365 does.

We had some pretty severe issues in a VDI environment. Every time a machine reboots, it needs to fetch the latest updates. However, we had some caching issues, and Trend Micro did not update some specific components which caused VMs to fall out or some people not to be able to work on their VDI anymore. We had some support cases open with Trend Micro, however, it was not easy at all. It was pretty hard to comprehend our specific situation as it was a little in-depth.

I have used the solution for less than a year. 

We experienced instability with a few different Trend Micro products. Typically, after an update, we would have some issues.

The solution is scalable. 

We had severe cases with VMs falling down. Support took too long to help define the root cause of the issue. 

Neutral

We implemented Microsoft Defender 365 in its place. When you look at, for example, reporting from all kinds of incidents it seems to be better than what I have seen from Trend Micro.

There was a period of time when the company paid for both Microsoft licenses and Defender and the reason for the transition was to just have the one solution already covered under 365. 

The solution was deployed on-premises. The company used Citrix Cloud, however, the machines that people worked on were local. There was no cloud-based machinery.

I was not involved with the deployment of ApexOne. I can't speak to how long it took. 

Uninstalling or removing the product wasn't easy.

The solution did require maintenance. Every month we did an image update of the VDI environment. We manually had to make sure everything from ApexOne was exactly right, and the update process was very tricky.

I was not in a position to compare the cost of licenses. 

I'm an independent freelance consultant. I used the solution within the last company I worked for and used it as an administrator and a user. 

I'm not sure if I have noticed a reduction in viruses and malware since moving on to ApexOne. I worked with it for too short of a time period. We never had a real outbreak or anything.

I'd advise those considering the product to do a good proof of concept to really make sure the solution fits. Have your needs and everything in place. Get all the people who will administer the product involved and well-trained. Look at all of the reports as well.

Overall, I would rate the solution six out of ten.

Apex One is used for endpoint security. I deployed it for two major financial institutions in my previous company. I also installed it in my internal lab in the previous company. 

I am currently not using it. I am currently at a banking site, but before that, I was at a managed service provider vendor site.

Apex One is a great solution for defending endpoints against threats such as malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts. It can detect malicious files, ransomware, and suspicious files.

I have not had any issues regarding detection. I have deployed it on two customer sites, and I have not heard of any issues from them. It provides great protection to endpoints.

We have seen a reduction in viruses and malware since moving to Apex One. It provides great protection. It detected ransomware for one customer. After you install it and sign in, it quickly detects all the viruses.

Apex One provides a single console for cross-layer detection, threat hunting, and investigation. It shows everything on the console. If you integrate it with Apex Central, then Apex Central provides a centralized dashboard of every product of Trend Micro. It provides full visibility into the environment. You get full visibility of all the products installed on the site such as DLP, encryption, XDR, and Vision One. Apex Central is the centralized management system.

Apex One integrates with other security products. I have integrated it with SIEM solutions. I have integrated it with LogRhythm and QRadar for log collection.

Apex One is an all-in-one solution. It provides application control, vulnerability management, and protection. It is also for EDR.

It is easy to administer. You have to specify the policy criteria and automate the policies.

Apex One reduces the administrative overhead. There is a 20% to 30% reduction.

Its reporting and dashboard are valuable. Its dashboard is easy to use.

It could be more customizable. Some clients' systems are slow after the installation of Apex One.

I have been using it from the start. It has been more than five years.

It is stable.

It is a scalable solution. Our clients were enterprise clients.

Their support team has been very helpful when we needed support. 

Neutral

I have not used any other solution.

I have experience with on-premises and cloud deployments. I prefer the cloud. The cloud setup is easy. 

The deployment depends on the client. If client requirements are clear, it is easy. Otherwise, it can be complex. In Pakistan, there are many problems that we are facing with the deployment process of Apex One because some clients are not pushing the agents to Active Directory or remote registry. We have to install it manually on every computer or place it on a shared server to install it on their endpoints.

The deployment duration depends on the number of endpoints. For more than 2,000 endpoints, it can take two to three months. If you are only installing the endpoint solution from a remote site without making any policies, then it does not take too much time. You just need to push the agent.

It requires maintenance. There are upgrades. They inform the customers and partners when they are having a major upgrade.

Overall, I would rate Trend Micro Apex One an eight out of ten.

I am using Apex One as a SOC analyst. I solve problems and open tickets if Trend Micro doesn't block, remedy, or quarantine threats. We don't deploy it. The Apex Trend Micro team deploys it at the customer's company, and we use it.

We use Apex One for things like URL and domain blocking, as well as detecting and blocking malicious files. We typically use the DLP solution, too. We can make groups and set policies that we push out. For example, we can set a policy for who is allowed to use a USB and who can use Zoom or any other software. 

I like Apex One's DLP and EDR features. The DLP is a good solution because it allows you to push policies. Source detection is another one. It automatically detects malicious IPs, domains, and URLs. Most of the time, it works automatically, but sometimes it doesn't quarantine or block, so we have to perform remediation manually and delete the file or application through PowerShell.

ApexOne has many advanced protection capabilities that help guard against new and unknown threats. It's critical because zero-day threats and ransomware have the most potential to destroy an organization. 

It's easy to use. Its GUI is so basic, and you can easily understand what is there or what is not. The interface is old-fashioned, but it's a good product. It's easy to administer, but I don't have the privileges to use it as an administrator.

Apex One could use some updates to its UI, threat modeling, and insights. I would like to see better integration with helpdesk platforms and more AI-driven features. It has some machine learning EDR capabilities, but they're not quite up to the level of some other solutions. 

I've been using Trend Micro products for the past year, including Apex One and Vision One. 

Apex One runs smoothly. I've never had any issues. 

Apex One is easy to scale. 

I also work with SentinelOne and CrowdStrike, which I regard as the most advanced solutions. Apex One's GUI is way too old school and their R&D is behind. Apex One has most of the features, but it's lacking some things that are necessary in today's landscape. 

SentinelOne is the clear winner out of these three because it offers end-to-end protection against anything malicious. If it's a Mac endpoint, SentinelOne can end the process through launch. SentinelOne also offers a more in-depth EDR analysis than Apex One. 

Trend Micro Vision One has a different feature set because Vision One is an XDR, but Apex One is an EDR. In my use case, Apex One is too old school compared to Vision One, which has more capabilities and advanced features. 

I wasn't involved in the deployment. The client deployed Apex One, and I use it in my capacity as a SOC analyst. It doesn't require any maintenance from our side. I am using it remotely. However, the client may need to update agents and things like that.

I rate Trend Micro Apex One eight out of 10. 

We utilize Trend Micro Apex One for our endpoint security needs. This solution incorporates machine-learning capabilities that assist us in monitoring and preventing attacks.

Trend Micro Apex One effectively safeguards our endpoints against threats like malware and malicious scripts, provided that we accurately define our policies.

The advanced protection capabilities of Trend Micro Apex One, which adapt to safeguard against unknown and stealthy threats, are commendable. The solution scans our system and generates a repository that it can subsequently cross-reference when an unfamiliar application attempts to access or install a file on our system, thereby restricting access.

It is important for our organization that the runtime machine learning capabilities of Trend Micro Apex One can assist our organization in defending against ransomware, especially when we activate the behavior monitoring feature.

It is important that Trend Micro Apex One offers a single console for us to investigate threats.

Trend Micro Apex One is easy to learn. Additionally, there are numerous helpful training videos available online, along with a support site designed to assist with any issues.

Administering Apex One is easy through its user-friendly console.

Apex One has nearly all the features necessary to safeguard us from malicious or viral attacks. The solution incorporates proactive machine learning, web application capabilities, and real-time scanning features. Furthermore, we have the capability to install this agent on our server. Apex One encompasses a wide range of options that allow us to create policies on our server.

Apex One has helped reduce the number of viral attacks in comparison to our previous solution.

The deployment of the services endpoint in the cloud has helped to decrease our employees' workloads by 30 percent.

Apex One has reduced our administrative overhead by 30 percent.

Trend Micro's managed XDR service, in conjunction with Apex One, adds value by offering visibility into our environment.

The most valuable features are web application features and real-time scans.

The support is slow and has room for improvement.

I have been using Trend Micro Apex One for almost two years.

It is stable.

Trend Micro Apex One is scalable.

The technical support is not consistent and can take time to resolve our issues.

Neutral

Previously we used Symantec Endpoint Security and switched to Trend Micro Apex One because we were not receiving sufficient support from Symantec Endpoint Security after its acquisition by Broadcom.

The implementation was completed through a third-party partner.

We evaluated CrowdStrike and two other solutions.

I would rate Trend Micro Apex One eight out of ten.

I recommend Trend Micro Apex One for endpoint security.

I have learned that there are features that assist administrators in granting access to specific servers by adding a MAC address and creating a policy.

There are many use cases. For example, it would depend on the user's requirements. It's mostly for security.

The detection of viruses has been good. The ability to automate has been useful.

The security is very good. It's helpful for catching viruses. 

We are satisfied with the protection it provides. It protects endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts.

It helps us find new stealthy threats. It can find new viruses and the latest threats before they can do damage. They can update sometimes twice a day, depending on the virus or malicious activity that is happening.

The product can detect ransomware and has runtime machine-learning capabilities.

It provides a single console for detection, threat hunting, and investigations. It's very handy and helps us optimize.

We get end-to-end visibility for our entire security environment. We've been able to reduce our response time thanks to this capability. We've reduced response time by about 30%.

We've been able to integrate the solution with other security products. 

When we've had detection in the sandbox, we're able to deploy rapid updates to endpoints.

It's an easy solution to learn. It's also very easy to administer. 

The service's endpoint deployment in the cloud helped reduce our staff workload by 20%.

There needs to be more integration with third parties. They need to integrate the DLP with the EDR.

I've been using the solution for four years. 

The solution is stable.

We have about 6,000 or more users using the product in our organization. 

The solution can scale. 

We have sent requests for support. They are okay. They need to improve the response time. 

Neutral

We previously used CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is EDR/XDR. CrowdStrike has a very good interface. Trend Micro has two different consoles for XDR and EDR, whereas, with CrowdStrike, it's all one console. 

The initial deployment was straightforward. It took about two months to deploy.

We have the solution deployed in multiple areas.

It does not require any maintenance. You just need to make sure it is up to date.

We have witnessed an ROI. It's difficult to define, however. It may be around 30%.

It is a fairly priced product.

We're a customer.

We use ApexOne as a service.

I'd rate the solution seven out of ten overall. 

We use Apex One to identify and resolve malicious activity.

Apex One is effective at catching malicious activity. It has multiple modules that improve threat prevention across hundreds of networks. It's successful against malware and ransomware attacks. The solution has advanced capabilities like behavior modeling that help it deal with unknown threats. It's easy to use and learn.  

We can integrate Apex One with our ITSM solution, and it integrates seamlessly with other Trend Micro products. Apex One detects malicious activity and can feed information into the Apex Central console or any product. The detectors, data analyzers, and other email gateways are integrated. 

Apex One uses a lot of RAM and other physical resources, and I also don't like the web interface. 

I have used Apex One for about three years.

Apex One is generally stable, but it consumes too many resources. 

We haven't used other vendors for our EDR console, but we have used traditional endpoint protection solutions like McAfee and Symantec. 

Apex One was deployed before I joined the company. It requires some maintenance. Trend Micro's support providers contact me monthly about our problems. For example, when we upgrade the Apex One web version, we need to upgrade the Microsoft version. That's the problem for me in our business network. 

Apex One is inexpensive compared to other solutions that are available in our country.  

I rate Trend Micro Apex One seven out of 10.
