The playbooks make it easier to set rules and policies
Pros and Cons
  • "I like One Endpoint Security's playbooks because they make it easier to set rules and policies. You can customize the playbooks and use them in more than one company. If you manage multiple businesses, it's a great way to set separate policies for each group. You can check for vulnerabilities, attacks, bugs, or anything strange. It also allows you to conduct performance analysis."
  • "I want more options and flexibility when creating rules. I want to set rules that are contingent, like "If this happens, then this, this, and this will happen.""

What is our primary use case?

My company is working with multiple Trend Micro solutions, including its MDM solution, but I think they have removed that one. We are using One Endpoint Security for endpoint defense. Most companies need security installed on the server and agents on all organization's devices that can be managed from the same command console, so you can apply consistent policies to everyone. Trend Micro also offers an XDR solution called Vision One. 

How has it helped my organization?

Before implementing One Endpoint Security, we didn't have another security product, so we can't check to see if there has been an improvement from one over the other. You can save time with Apex One. For example, you can typically save about two hours of investigation time. You can save more time if you identify the problem device earlier and block it.  Also, the action is immediate. You don't need to check, read, and understand what happens, and then perform an action. All you do is take the action. 

The XDR is helpful because it requires less work to manage the endpoints. All the alerts are inside the window, and you can apply the different tools from the same console. You can find all the information and hold it in the sandbox for 30 days in case you need to check something. You can also make a bigger sandbox with more logs, but you don't need all that normally.

What is most valuable?

I like One Endpoint Security's playbooks because they make it easier to set rules and policies. You can customize the playbooks and use them in more than one company. If you manage multiple businesses, it's a great way to set separate policies for each group. You can check for vulnerabilities, attacks, bugs, or anything strange. It also allows you to conduct performance analysis. 

One Endpoint Security protects against unknown and novel threats. There are different processes you can set to monitor a vector and see if something is strange, like if a process has been modified or a new tenant has been created. If so, you can block them. I have already set rules that block when you install this for the time. You can manage them on the tab. Once all the rules are set, I can sleep well knowing that anything suspicious will be blocked. The next day, I can check the logs for any device or user account and see what happened.

There isn't a single application firewall that can filter all the malware. We have different applications and build multiple layers around the business. One of these is the antivirus, but we also have something on the DNS level to control access to the DNS.

You can detect ransomware with machine learning. There are multiple options for that. The threat database compiles all the knowledge of the attack methods and they are synchronized among the different companies. Information is coming from different regions, like Europe and the United States, or other systems.

Having a single console for threat hunting and investigation is the best thing about One Endpoint Security. If you buy the complete package, you also get Vision One, and you can manage both from the same console. Before we deployed Vision One, we had different windows and consoles. Trend Micro is like eight consoles in one. It's great. 

You can integrate One Endpoint Security with some products. In our case, we have only integrated it with Microsoft 365 products, so we can scan data or filter messages that are coming from outside. 

What needs improvement?

I want more options and flexibility when creating rules. I want to set rules that are contingent, like "If this happens, then this, this, and this will happen." 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate One Endpoint Security eight out of 10 for stability. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

One Endpoint Security is highly scalable. We're covering more than a thousand endpoints. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Trend Micro support eight out of 10. The quality varies depending on the technician.  All of them are qualified, but some have more qualifications than others. However, I'm happy with the support overall. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I previously worked with Kaspersky and McAfee, but we are new to the XDR. It's a relatively new service and there are only a few competing products. For example, Check Point also has this option.

I don't think that there is a significant difference between One Endpoint Security and other solutions, but I think this is an expert solution. I have not tried all of them, so I can't say definitively if they are better or worse. However, one difference is that an agent uses up processing power and computer memory. Kaspersky uses a lot of memory, whereas Micro Focus doesn't seem to cause the computer's performance to slow down. Maybe if you perform a huge scan, you'll notice it's working slower, but usually, it isn't too much.

How was the initial setup?

One Endpoint Security was already deployed when I joined the company, but it's straightforward. You can do it alone, but I always prefer to have someone from the support team available to address any issues I might have. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

I find the price of One Endpoint Security to be reasonable. The pricing varies from company to company. Your business will have a different price than what we have because the product's price depends on the number of users. 

The product will likely cost more in the future because they are adding more features and will probably offer various modules, such as DLP. We will renew our license in 2025, so we will see if the price goes up. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Trend Micro One Endpoint Security eight out of 10. I only have good things to say about this product.  This solution is constantly improving and could easily become a big name. If you want a better price, you can always check out the other products on the market. More and more products can do the same thing as One Endpoint Security. One Endpoint Security will work as expected. It matters how you deploy the service. If you install it on-premises or in the cloud, they will give you a different price. 

Using One Endpoint Security isn't easy at first. It's like learning to drive a car. You won't be able to do it the first time. You will need the time to learn about this product and use it in different situations to practice.

Provides web reputation, behavior monitoring, and advanced protection capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "Web reputation and behavior monitoring are valuable features, as they allow us to control which websites users can visit and download from, and to protect against ransomware."
  • "The Apex One endpoint sensor has room for improvement."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Micro Apex One as our primary antivirus solution.

How has it helped my organization?

When we use Trend Micro, we can get pop-up messages about who is connecting additional USB hard drives or disks, and about cracked software that may be malware. We can also identify these issues from the client and from the central configuration manager. We can then push patches and behavioral monitoring to protect our custom clients.

With ransomware, malware, and other threats, behavioral monitoring can be a particular benefit because it can catch and quarantine ransomware or malware that is repeatedly using the same methods, even if the malware is new or unknown.

Apex One has advanced protection capabilities that adapt to protect against unknown and stealthy new threats, which is important for our clients, especially those who click on infected web content.

Apex One can detect most ransomware variants with real-time machine learning, which helps to detect threats before they spread.

We leveraged the practice sessions and Trend Micro's support to learn how to use Apex One which made it easy.

Administering Apex One is straightforward. We have a helpline available for the software, and the administrator user-level guide is accessible online.

Apex One has helped our organization improve its endpoint detection.

It has reduced the number of viruses and malware by more than 95 percent.

Apex One has reduced our administrative overhead by one hour per day because we can perform all administrative tasks from a single console.

What is most valuable?

Web reputation and behavior monitoring are valuable features, as they allow us to control which websites users can visit and download from, and to protect against ransomware.

What needs improvement?

The Apex One endpoint sensor has room for improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro Apex One for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro Apex One is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We are managing 2,800 PCs and servers without any issues. With our current setup, Apex One can handle up to 5,000 PCs.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support team is available 24/7 and they are located in Dubai and India.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Our previous three antivirus solutions were Trend Micro 7, 8, and XP before we upgraded to Apex One.

How was the initial setup?

Our organization is responsible for the deployment of Apex One to all of our client's endpoints. The deployment is straightforward. The deployment took around five days. 

To deploy Apex One, we must first install it on the server. Then, open the firewall ports for all freelance clients. Next, check the availability of the client-server communication port. In the directory, place the login script and the existing agent. The client will then be automatically pushed to the Apex One Control Manager. The agent will be notified that there is new software available that needs to be migrated. The upgrade will take place, and the client will need to be restarted for the agent to be installed. The same process applies to roaming clients.

Eighteen people were involved in the deployment because there were 16 sites, including airports, landports, and seaports.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

Trend Micro Apex One is affordable. The licensing fee and support are bundled together.

What other advice do I have?

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

Apex One is deployed across multiple locations, connecting endpoint servers, PCs, and laptops to the LAN network through fiber channels of the Ministry of Communication, landlines, and private networks to our centralized data center.

We use two people for maintenance to ensure that updates are automatically pushed through to the servers.

Endgame and SentinelOne provide more protection than Apex One.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Offers great integration, has valuable ransomware protection, and behavior monitoring
Pros and Cons
  • "The ransomware protection and behavior monitoring features of Trend Micro Apex One are actually good."
  • "One of Trend Micro's weaknesses is its high resource utilization."

What is our primary use case?

Many clients come to us after they have been attacked by ransomware. They often ask us to immediately remediate the situation, but this is not possible once a system has been compromised. However, we can usually install Trend Micro Apex One or a Cloud One product right away. This is our standard response to these situations.

Most of the clients I work with are hospitals. They have been using a different endpoint security solution, but they were attacked by ransomware and reached out to us for a different solution.

In one of the use cases we worked on, we simply installed an endpoint security solution. During the proof of concept, the hospital actually encountered a ransomware attack. There were two systems that were attacked: our test PC running Apex One and the other that was using the existing endpoint security solution. The Trend Micro-installed PC was able to navigate the attack, but the files on the other PC were corrupted.

We also simulate other attacks, such as ransomware or simple malware, using the Intelligent Content Analysis and Response tool. We then check the Device Control feature. Apex One also has data loss prevention and application control features. The DLP feature is not as comprehensive as a full-blown DLP solution, but it can be used to leverage regular expressions, specific keywords, and specific attributes. We also test the application control feature.

Our most recent testing has been with the new Vision One product. This is an extended detection and response platform that can be integrated with not only Trend Micro's other solutions, but also with other security solutions from different vendors, such as SIEM, firewalls, NDR, and vulnerability management systems.

When we test the integration of Apex One and Vision One, we focus on automation, remediation, and cost analysis. We can see how an attack was carried out, down to the file level, hostname, and user. If Vision One is integrated with Active Directory, we can also see who the user was at the time of the attack.

This is the scope of the usual use cases we perform during proof of concepts for Trend Micro Apex One.

How has it helped my organization?

I would rate Apex One nine out of ten for its ability to defend endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts.

Apex One can defend against zero-day attacks and stealthy attacks. This is important because in-house applications can have many vulnerabilities, such as coding errors and misconfigurations, which attackers can exploit. Having Apex One as an advantage would give clients a head start in defending against unknown threats.

It uses runtime machine learning to detect ransomware. Machine learning allows us to monitor activities and suspicious behaviors running in our system, not only at the file transfer level but also at the library and registry level. This is important because it allows us to identify potential threats. Runtime machine learning can see any entry points that ransomware might use to infect a system.

Trend Micro has announced that they will be migrating the Apex One platform to Vision One, which can be integrated with an XDR.

Our clients have integrated Apex One with a vulnerability management firewall, SIEM, MFA solutions integrated with Azure AD, and the native security of Microsoft 365.

Apex One is user-friendly. For those familiar with an endpoint security solution, it will not be difficult to learn Trend Micro Apex One. However, for those who are new to the solution, they will need to take some time to learn the ropes.

Administering Apex One is straightforward, especially for the SaaS solution compared to the on-premises solution. This is because we only need to download the installer. The installer is large, around 400 MB. Once we install it on the system, we can communicate with the management console, which is the same for both solutions. We just need to make sure that all required communication ports, FQDNs, IP addresses, and ports are allowed on the firewall. We usually take into consideration the clients when we are doing POCs, and we need to work with the infrastructure team to check on this.

Apex One provides our clients with virtual patching to protect against vulnerabilities. From the perspective of an impending threat, if a client is able to patch the vulnerability in the meantime, Apex One can see the potential threat and take action to protect the client. This is done by identifying the signatures of the vulnerability and creating a virtual patch. It is important to make sure that clients understand that this is not an official patch, but rather a temporary measure that can be used while the official patch is being developed and applied.

Before using Trend Micro, many of our larger clients, which are hospitals, were constantly attacked by malware. However, after adopting Apex One, the viruses and malware have been significantly reduced or eliminated altogether. This is why they continue to renew their subscriptions to Trend Micro.

Most of the time, we recommend the SaaS version of Apex One because the on-premises solution from Trend Micro requires significant resources from the client. If they do not have the necessary monetary resources, they will need to take this into account. This is because when we build an on-premises Apex One, we need two servers: one for Apex One on-premises and one for Apex in Cloud. Additionally, if we leverage the entire SPE package, we will also need a server for mobile security and file and drive encryption.

The endpoint deployment in the cloud has helped our clients reduce their staff workload, especially on the maintenance side.

Apex One has helped reduce our client's administrative overhead.

Some of our clients use Trend Micro's managed XDR service and they love it because the automation makes things easier for them. 

What is most valuable?

The ransomware protection and behavior monitoring features of Trend Micro Apex One are actually good. All endpoint security solutions are in the market to defend against and remediate threats. However, Trend Micro is particularly quick to identify suspicious activities. Any malicious virus or malware that can be extracted from the system is something that they can leverage and work on. One way they do this is through virtual patching. Most of the time, vulnerabilities come from legacy operating systems. These operating systems cannot always be updated, such as Windows 7. If Microsoft announces that it will no longer update a specific operating system, there is nothing that can be done about it. However, Trend Micro can anticipate specific vulnerabilities that can be exploited due to the lack of updates. They can then leverage these vulnerabilities to create a virtual patch that can be applied to the specific system. I believe this is one of the many highlights of Trend Micro Apex One.

What needs improvement?

One of Trend Micro's weaknesses is its high resource utilization. Many of our clients have complained about this, and it is a valid concern. However, we assure our clients that the level of security that Trend Micro provides is worth the high resource utilization. Trend Micro is very fast at detecting and protecting against threats. For example, they were able to identify suspicious signatures for a ransomware attack that was happening worldwide months before the attack actually occurred. We believe that this level of threat intelligence is a major strength of Trend Micro. Of course, no security solution is perfect. There are always ups and downs. However, we believe that Trend Micro's strengths outweigh its weaknesses. However, we do not only offer Trend Micro for this reason.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro Apex One for four years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro has consistently been in Gartner's Leaders Program year after year. Apex One is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Apex One is scalable.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is straightforward. We usually plan and gather data before implementing. We ensure that there are no residual old endpoints installed in the system. We then set expectations with the client and proceed with setting up the management console. We install the system step-by-step and then work on the policies. We also integrate with other systems and transfer knowledge and troubleshooting skills. 

I usually complete the deployments on my own, but for our larger clients with over 2,000 endpoints in different locations, we need to be on-site. For a three-month deployment of those 2,000 endpoints, we allocated three engineers. There was also one time when we had to allocate a lot of engineers for a government agency with eight thousand employees.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The pricing for Apex One is midrange, and worth the costs.

What other advice do I have?

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

All security solutions require maintenance. But with SaaS deployment and SaaS security solutions, most of the maintenance is actually covered by the principal itself.

Apex One can be resource-intensive and have high utilization, but it does a great job protecting our clients' endpoints.

Enhanced threat detection and cost efficiency but needs better uninstallation support
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution offers great visibility into their IT infrastructure and uses industry-leading threat intelligence strategies."
  • "There were challenges in uninstalling the Trend Micro solution from certain endpoints."

What is our primary use case?

The major focus of the client was to protect their endpoints and systems, which include all endpoints they are using, whether they are laptops or desktops. The solution provides all the visibility and threat detection and response needed to reduce the attack surface and manage risk, securing their endpoints.

How has it helped my organization?

The implementation of Playbooks and automation led to a reduction in manpower, as everything was automated. With pre-scheduled playbooks, they were assured that Trend Micro could handle threats efficiently, reducing manpower needs and enhancing cost efficiency.

What is most valuable?

The solution offers great visibility into their IT infrastructure and uses industry-leading threat intelligence strategies. The integration of ML and AI provides complete visibility, suggests responses, detects threats, and includes integration into XDR, which covers email security, endpoint security, cloud security, among other aspects.

What needs improvement?

There were challenges in uninstalling the Trend Micro solution from certain endpoints. 20% to 30% of endpoints faced difficulty in cleaning or uninstalling the software, and we required additional documentation and technical support.

A user-friendly solution that provides virtual patching to protect systems with old operating systems from attacks
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is the virtual patching it provides."
  • "The solution can be improved to utilize fewer system resources, like memory and hard disk, during scanning."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Vision One Endpoint Security for securing end-user systems, desktops, and laptops. We also use it to secure the data in the user system, which we officially provide to employees. It also supports backward compatibility by providing virtual patching to operating systems like Windows 8, whose end-of-life was declared by Microsoft.

How has it helped my organization?

Normally, all organizations have their own domain services. Employees who log in to the local LAN network are given unique login credentials to log in to the system and access applications. Without the solution, DDoS attacks could happen in the network, and unknown traffic could be generated from the endpoints. Sometimes, the malware uses up all the resources, generates traffic, and destabilizes the server or network connectivity.

Services like Trend Vision One Endpoint Security and endpoints security identify malware or viruses infecting the systems. We can disconnect them from the network and limit unknown traffic. The official work which needs to be done gets faster. Otherwise, it slows the network and affects the other systems by overloading the services and applications.

Since we have installed the solution in the system, malware attacks get quarantined, and we get notifications on our dashboard. We get a notification on the solution's centralized dashboard, and then we take the needful action on that.

Trend Vision One Endpoint SecurityOne has advanced protection capabilities that adapt to protect against unknown and new threats.

The solution detects ransomware with run-time machine learning capabilities.

The solution's ransomware detection ability is very important to us.

The dashboard provides us with a single console for cross-layer detection, threat hunting, and investigation. It is very important to have a single console for cross-layer detection.

The solution does not provide end-to-end visibility into the entire IT security environment. It only provides visibility for the desktop part. There is a separate solution for the server part. However, the solution provides complete visibility for the end user part.

The solution integrates with other security products. As part of integrating with other security products, when a threat is detected in the network sandbox, the solution deploys rapid updates to the endpoint. We have scheduled updates. On the server, it gets automatically updated, but on the end user part, we have defined the schedule for when it should get updated.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is easy to learn because it's a web-based application. It gives a dashboard on the web, making it easy to identify the affected endpoint or port. So it's easy, and any technical person can use it in a simple way.

Administering it is just a one-time setup; if you have done it, you won't face any issues.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security has reduced administrative overhead for us. Earlier, we used a different endpoint solution. So the administrative people involved with the old solution are also involved in the new solution.

We are using Trend Micro's managed XDR services in conjunction with Trend Vision One Endpoint Security, which has been quite useful for our Trend Vision One Endpoint Security deployment. It's an additional benefit to the Trend Vision Service.

Users can evaluate the product, and they can use it. We have been using it for the last six to seven years, and it's a stable solution. We haven't faced many issues. The functions we set are normal, and if the end-user faces any issue, we can easily rectify it.Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is a user-friendly solution that can be used by all organizations.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is the virtual patching it provides. If no patches are available for any operating system we use, the system becomes vulnerable to attacks. Trend Vision One Endpoint Security provides virtual patching services, which protect the system from any attack.

The virtual patching feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is quite significant. While Microsoft has released new operating systems like Windows 10 and Windows 11, older operating systems like Windows 8 and Windows 7 are being used for specific purposes. It's not possible to immediately upgrade to a new operating system once it is released. In such a case, we can use the virtual patching feature, which helps limit any attacks on that system, and we can use it till we go for any replacement or upgrade of that machine.

What needs improvement?

The resources used by Trend Vision One Endpoint Security during scanning could be improved. Once the endpoint scanning starts, it may run up to two to three hours; and other applications slow down during that time. The solution can be improved to utilize fewer system resources, like memory and hard disk, during scanning.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One Endpoint Security for the last six years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is a stable solution.

I rate it a nine out of ten for stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is a scalable solution.

I rate it an eight out of ten for scalability.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We previously used McAfee. McAfee had some business changes as some other company took over, and there was no future roadmap for the next releases. I was unclear if I would get any updates or if the solution would introduce new versions or releases in the coming years.

How was the initial setup?

The solution's initial setup is straightforward. We have installed the solution on two virtual servers with high availability mode.

What about the implementation team?

We had support from Trend Micro, and a partner was also involved in the solution's deployment. So around four people were involved during the solution's one-time installation.

All the departments use Trend Vision One Endpoint Security in our organization. We have a separate contract for the maintenance of the solution on an on-call basis. If we face any maintenance issues, we open a ticket.

What was our ROI?

We have seen a return on investment with Trend Vision One Endpoint Security. We have seen a significant reduction of around 60 to 70% in viruses and malware since we started using Trend Vision One Endpoint Security.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The subscription model is definitely on the expensive side. Earlier, we used to pay a one-time license fee and yearly support charges. However, with the subscription model, we have to pay more for the complete cost every year.

What other advice do I have?

Overall, I rate Trend Trend Vision One Endpoint Security an eight out of ten.

Great for defending endpoints, reduces threats, and is easy to manage
Pros and Cons
  • "Using the product as a service on the cloud has helped reduced employee workloads."
  • "It would be better if it was easier to administer Apex One."

What is our primary use case?

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. 

How has it helped my organization?

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

What is most valuable?

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. 

What needs improvement?

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. 

For how long have I used the solution?

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

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable and has met our needs. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

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

How are customer service and support?

I haven't had any issues with technical support. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

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

How was the initial setup?

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.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

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

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did not evaluate other options before choosing this solution. 

What other advice do I have?

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.

Offers quick and timely updates, and the management is simple
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution offers quick and timely updates."
  • "We do not have much control as we have to work with regional policies and regional support."

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for endpoint protection. 

How has it helped my organization?

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. 

What is most valuable?

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. 

What needs improvement?

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. 

For how long have I used the solution?

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

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution scales well. 

How are customer service and support?

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.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

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. 

How was the initial setup?

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.

What about the implementation team?

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

What was our ROI?

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.

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

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. 

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did not evaluate other options before choosing Trend Micro. 

What other advice do I have?

We use the product's latest version. 

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

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Public Cloud

If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

Helps detect and block ransomware attacks, but the console is not stable
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features are behavior analytics, machine learning, and virtual patching."
  • "The console is unstable, meaning it frequently malfunctions or lags, making it unreliable."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Vision One Endpoint Security to protect against ransomware.

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security does a good job protecting our endpoints against threats such as malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security has partially advanced protection capabilities that adapt to protect against unknown and new threats.

Machine learning helps detect and block ransomware attacks.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security provides a helpful single console for cross-layered attack action, threat hunting, and investigations.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is easy to use.

The learning curve is not steep.

Before Trend Vision One Endpoint Security, we lacked threat-hunting abilities. Now, we can swiftly pinpoint threats and establish connections between email and endpoint data.

We are using the Trend Vision One platform for consolidated security across hybrid environments. This consolidation has improved our security operations and saved us time.

Trend Micro's Vision One platform offers a full view of our entire IT estate and empowers us to manage cyber threats more effectively. It achieves this through a combination of Zero Trust security principles, and ongoing monitoring for vulnerabilities in our attack surface.

Virtual patching helps protect our endpoints within minutes of detecting a vulnerability while we wait for the full patch which can take some time.

Trend Vision One greatly reduced the viruses and malware we receive. Before Trend Vision One we would receive five callbacks each month but now we may see one or two in six months.

The managed XDR adds great value to Trend Vision One Endpoint Security because we can manage everything from one place.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are behavior analytics, machine learning, and virtual patching. 

What needs improvement?

To gain complete visibility across our entire IT security landscape, we need additional Trend Micro products to complement Trend Vision One Endpoint Security. We're also integrating a third-party solution with Trend Micro for a more comprehensive approach. The integration aspect has room for improvement.

The console is unstable, meaning it frequently malfunctions or lags, making it unreliable.

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security initially offered a user-friendly administration experience, but its manageability has declined over time.

The technical support response time has room for improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One Endpoint Security for five years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

We currently have issues with assets not showing up on the console which has been lagging.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Micro Vision One scales its endpoint security based on the number of licenses we purchase, allowing us to secure more devices as our organization grows.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support takes a long time to get back to us.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

We've switched from McAfee because it was resource-intensive and some users reported missing malware detection.

How was the initial setup?

The initial deployment was straightforward. The only time-consuming part was deploying across different locations. The deployment took two months for 5,000 users. For the deployment, we have to download the console from the agent. No more than three people are required for the deployment.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Vision One Endpoint Security seven out of ten.

Two people are required for the maintenance.

I recommend waiting until Trend Micro fixes its stability problems before implementing Trend Vision One Endpoint Security.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
