Centralized XDR has improved investigations and now simplifies endpoint and email threat response
Pros and Cons
  • "TrendAI Vision One positively impacts my organization because it is the tool we utilize more than any other cybersecurity-providing tool, as it has a very user-friendly console that I can easily explain to clients, allowing them to understand and carry forward investigations."
  • "An area for improvement for TrendAI Vision One that I notice is on the support side; if any support issues arise or bugs I report can be remediated or addressed more promptly."

What is our primary use case?

My main use case for TrendAI Vision One is endpoint security, server security, or network security.

For endpoint server security, we have been using it as an essential endpoint security module where we deploy an agent on the client machines and maintain or monitor application control, firewall, anti-malware, spam, web reputation, spam reputation, and other similar capabilities, which is the same for servers including intrusion prevention and detection and response.

Furthermore, for the servers, we use it on-prem and on-cloud, specifically on-prem deep security, which we can migrate and integrate to TrendAI Vision One cloud.

What is most valuable?

In my experience, one of the best features of TrendAI Vision One is the XDR capability, which involves a centralized console collecting logs from multiple sources, correlating them, and telling us a story.

TrendAI Vision One positively impacts my organization because it is the tool we utilize more than any other cybersecurity-providing tool, as it has a very user-friendly console that I can easily explain to clients, allowing them to understand and carry forward investigations.

For specific outcomes or metrics showcasing how TrendAI Vision One has benefited my organization, it includes playbooks that run on the workbench's correlations, correlating all log sets, pinpointing exact alerts so that the SOC team cannot waste more time and can simply investigate and address them.

What needs improvement?

An area for improvement for TrendAI Vision One that I notice is on the support side; if any support issues arise or bugs I report can be remediated or addressed more promptly.

Additionally, regarding needed improvements, I pointed out to Trend Micro an issue related to email security, where an inbound protection policy I created, aimed at handling email attachments above a certain size, resulted in all emails being quarantined, and I reported that TrendAI Vision One lacked the capability to adequately manage this.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using TrendAI Vision One for more than five years.

TrendAI Vision One is stable in my experience, but some clients using data centers hosted in the Gulf region, mainly Dubai, face downtime issues.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

In terms of scalability, it performs well for endpoints, servers, email, network level, and sandboxing.

How are customer service and support?

I would rate customer support as average, about four out of five. On a scale of one to ten, I would rate customer support an eight.

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

I have not switched from a different solution since my company provides multiple solutions as per client needs, leveraging various security vendors while finding TrendAI Vision One's features user-friendly and easy to understand.

How was the initial setup?

My advice to others looking into using TrendAI Vision One is that it is very user-friendly and easy to deploy, requiring some firewall rules, and you can deploy an agent to easily access control and investigate.

What about the implementation team?

We are using TrendAI Vision One sensors on endpoints and at the network level as well.

This coverage is critical for my organization's network because the sensors collect XDR telemetry and forward it to the main console, TrendAI Vision One.

What was our ROI?

I have seen a return on investment, as I can affirm that employees save time dealing with complexities from other products due to TrendAI Vision One's ability to address many issues at the investigation, deployment, and analysis levels.

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

Regarding my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing, I am uncertain about the exact price but note that TrendAI Vision One has shifted to a credit-based license model allowing flexible use across solutions.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Before choosing TrendAI Vision One, we evaluated other options including Kaspersky for endpoint security and FortiGate EDR.

What other advice do I have?

The governance and security of TrendAI Vision One's AI capabilities are actually good; I notice it provides alerts regarding exposure management and threats, along with compliance scores, overall scores, and risk scores to help mitigate and address concerns.

In our industry, the top security challenges include securing endpoints against ransomware and malware attacks, which TrendAI Vision One covers well, along with email security.

My impressions of TrendAI Vision One's ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers are very good, as it collects data from all products and resources, correlating it to tell a cohesive story.

TrendAI Vision One helps consolidate our use of security vendors and reduces silos, covering key areas such as endpoint encryption, compliance, and vulnerabilities, which I validate and remediate.

The importance of TrendAI Vision One having AI built into its platform is high, as it helps explain alerts, attack phases, and process chains with ease. I would rate this review as eight out of ten.

Helps save investigation time, reduces false positives, and provides real-time analysis
Pros and Cons
  • "I appreciate the value of real-time activity monitoring."
  • "While blocking an IP address restricts access for 30 days, it eventually becomes accessible again."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Vision One for real-time analysis and monitoring to identify the root cause of security incidents. This includes finding details like how the attack unfolded, user names involved, IP addresses associated with the attack, and the affected systems and devices. By analyzing this information, we can map out the entire attack flow chart.

How has it helped my organization?

The network coverage provided by Trend Vision One is important.

Trend Vision One is an XDR tool so it is important for us that it provides centralized visibility and management across protection layers.

Centralized visibility and management across protection layers enable real-time monitoring, which improves our efficiency.

While the Trend Micro Vision One executive dashboard provides a valuable overview, the ability to drill down from that level into the XDR detections is crucial. During a real-time attack, this drill-down functionality is essential for identifying the root cause, prioritizing the threat type, and ultimately finding an effective solution.

Trend Micro Vision One's greatest strength lies in its real-time monitoring and analysis capabilities. This allows for the seamless blocking of malicious URLs and attacks.

The managed XDR has saved us time allowing us to focus on other tasks.

The managed XDR helps us detect and respond to threats in under five minutes. It will display all the details in a single, unified view, including any alerts, trends, usernames, and everything else relevant. By simply looking at the tag data, we can get a complete analysis. This eliminates the need to switch between different screens and saves us significant time. For example, if we see a flag, we can immediately understand its meaning and the associated location without having to search for it elsewhere. Having all this information on a single page is a huge time saver.

Trend Vision One helps reduce the time we spend investigating false positives. The more we familiarize ourselves with the tool the easier it becomes identifying false positives. The time saved by identifying false positives depends on the type of alert. In some cases, we only deal with simple attacks, such as brute-force password attempts, followed by alerts for unusual login failures. These are common attack methods. We can then determine if the user was trying a different password, mistyped their password, or there's a mismatch. In such cases, identifying a false positive can be relatively quick, taking only one to two minutes. 

What is most valuable?

I appreciate the value of real-time activity monitoring. It provides accurate data, giving us a clear picture of what's happening, including who attempted an attack, their location, and any other details we need to mitigate the threat.

What needs improvement?

While blocking an IP address restricts access for 30 days, it eventually becomes accessible again. For true permanence, blocked IPs need to be transferred to a dedicated storage solution. However, this storage has limited capacity. To accommodate new blocked IPs, we must remove existing ones, creating a disadvantage that has room for improvement.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One for over 1 year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is scalable.

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

We previously used Palo Alto's Cortex XDR. However, we switched to Trend Micro Vision One because it's more user-friendly. Trend Micro's interface allows us to better understand the features and processes, enabling us to achieve the desired results more easily. Cortex XDR, on the other hand, was more complex to navigate.

What was our ROI?

The solution has delivered a return on investment through time savings.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Vision One 9 out of 10.

Maintenance is required but it is easy to do.

I would recommend Trend Vision One to others. I suggest completing training before using the solution.

Provides a centralized dashboard, protects older servers, and reduces our time to detect
Pros and Cons
  • "The zero-day vulnerability is valuable."
  • "The automation capabilities on-premises could be improved, as we currently have to manually activate servers and push policies."

What is our primary use case?

We use FireEye, Microsoft Defender, and Trend Micro for our endpoint solutions. Trend Micro.

We implemented Trend Vision One because we have many production servers and wanted to secure all endpoints.

We are planning to move our XDR to the cloud, but all of our production servers are currently on-premises. 

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Vision One's ability to cover all our servers is important because we can detect and quarantine any vulnerabilities as well as block and isolate third-party applications from being installed on our servers.

The centralized visibility empowers us to monitor and manage all our servers from a single console. This includes generating reports, deploying security updates, and identifying offline or outdated servers.

The centralized visibility and management across protection layers have helped increase our efficiency. We receive alerts and make changes all from one place.

Trend Vision One helps us protect our servers, specifically our older servers that are not supported by Microsoft.

It has reduced our time to detect by 50 percent.

Trend Micro XDR has reduced the time spent on false positive alerts by up to 40 percent.

What is most valuable?

The zero-day vulnerability is valuable. As end users, we may not be aware of exploitations and Trend Micro makes suggestions to update to protect our endpoints from attack.

What needs improvement?

The automation capabilities on-premises could be improved, as we currently have to manually activate servers and push policies.

I would like the uninstall process of agents to require two-step verification.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One for ten months.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Vision One is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good but we sometimes face delays because they will only respond to our partner who then relays the information to us.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The migration from on-premises to the cloud allows us to access the cloud and on-premise servers from the cloud. The migration is not complicated but some rule-based ports require a lot of approvals and assistance from our network team.

The migration can be done in a few hours if all the ports are available.

Two people are required for the migration.

What about the implementation team?

We used a third-party service from JVS for the migration.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Vision One a nine out of ten.

For the on-premises deployment, maintenance is required because we have to manually check the connectivity of the agents. One person is required for the maintenance.

I recommend Trend Vision One, especially for older servers that are not supported by some other endpoint solutions.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

A cloud solution for providing all information in one dashboard

What is our primary use case?

We use the solution for event correlation.

How has it helped my organization?

We are deploying a server inside our network to use it as a data collector.

What is most valuable?

The solution provides all the information in only one dashboard. We have integrated with Lumen, NETSCOUT, and other MDM products such as Microsoft Intune and ManageEngine MDM. We have also integrated Chrome with VisionOne.

What needs improvement?

The login system could be improved. We must pass two different dashboards to log in to the solution. We have a second-factor authentication. We need to check the platform, which delays three or four minutes because of logging, checking email, and returning to the platform. If you multiply the entire team, we lose a lot of time daily.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Vision One for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

I rate the solution’s stability an eight out of ten.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

I rate the solution’s scalability a nine out of ten.

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

We have used Symantec before. We switched to Trend Vision because Symantec cut off support for Windows XP. We still have Windows XP in our environment.

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup is easy because our assets are in interactive directory.

What was our ROI?

We’ve seen ROI because we controlled a malware attack in our network with Trend Micro two weeks ago.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We have tried other malware solutions. We chose Trend Vision because it supports Windows XP.

What other advice do I have?

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Great support, easy to set up, and offers good visibility
Pros and Cons
  • "The search features help us try to correlate information and identify any suspicious activity."
  • "We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."

What is our primary use case?

Normally, we use the solution for day-to-day investigations. We get alerts when something is going on in the environment. Right now, we are using that tool for the asset management team to identify services or applications that are not allowed for governance and all of these purposes. In addition to that, we use it for isolating devices. We also have a service with them, an MDR service. They analyze information, and they do investigations for us as well.

How has it helped my organization?

Mainly, we were concerned with the visibility of the environment. We didn't have a tool that was able to allow us to see or have visibility of what the endpoints were doing on the servers in the environment. That was the main reason to adopt this solution - to have visibility on the environment as, in the past, we didn't have that capability.

What is most valuable?

The isolation of devices has been really important. We like all the attack surface-managed NPEs. It's helping us to identify devices and protect us on the network. That's in combination with third-party integrations as well. We have integrations that are helping us to identify devices using our vulnerability management services. It's scanning the network and it's sending all that data to VisionOne. With that information, we identify devices that are protected on the network and the environment.

The reports are a really good feature for showing results to upper management levels.

The search features help us try to correlate information and identify any suspicious activity. That's another feature that has been really important.

We are using it everywhere except for the network, so we don't have the network discovery service from Trend Micro. However, we have it on endpoint servers and email and also the cloud as well. We use cloud conformity to connect that piece.

Trend Micro has a feature called Vision One, that provides us with centralized visibility management across all protection levels. That's helping us to have a centralized view of the console. That's the main reason why we still have that product.

Centralized visibility is important. When we are doing investigations, we can do everything in one console instead of moving to different screens or different windows. The centralized visibility and management across these protection levels helped with our efficiency. It helps us to identify quicker, any potential threat, or any special activity.

They have this feature called Risk Index which I use sometimes to validate the level of rates we have. We don’t use it often - maybe once every one or two weeks. We use it to rank our security operations overall. Mostly, we just check it out of curiosity.

We use the Managed XDR service that they have. It relieves a lot of workload especially during investigations or interim reports about any particular activity - especially with the coverage after hours. It is helping us with the capability there. Also, if something really bad is happening, we have eyes watching all the activity, which is nice.

Using this Managed XDR service enables our team to work on other tasks - especially when we, in certain ways, allocate some of the investigation pieces. We basically create a request for them to investigate things, and that allows us to focus on other things to optimize our security toolset. That's really helpful.

We use the attack surface risk management capability they have. We use that heavily right now. It was a big use case in the past few months. We use it to identify multiple devices without protection, the applications that have been used by our users, and which ones are risky. We are using that on a regular basis. It's helped us identify blind spots and more assets. It's positively affected our security posture by improving a lot of our visibility.

XDR helped us decrease our time to detect or respond to threats. In the past, we didn't have that visibility. When we enabled that tool, at the beginning, it was a little bit noisy. That's something to be expected coming from a new tool. However, after testing through these years, things are improving, and now we can see better results, especially during investigation alerts.

The solution has helped us to reduce the amount of time we spend investigating false positive alerts. In the beginning, there was a large amount of false positives. Right now, we are day to day trying to reduce them. At this point, they are lower compared with the beginning of the implementation. Things are improving. We are reducing false positives as we go which is great.

What needs improvement?

We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side. The API we use. We are integrating that with another product, a SOAR product. The playbooks are a little bit limited in what they can do at this point. Let's say that we want to connect on a specific API. The templates we cannot modify very well. When we noticed that limitation, we decided to go and use Trend Micro VisionOne API and connect it to other tools to develop that activity using another product.

Under attack surface management, when you go to the specific sites or applications that the users are accessing, the capability of downloading that report could be better. Let's say, as an example, we want to identify users using chatGPT, for example. We want to download that data through an API or through the GUI. Right now, it's not available as an option. Maybe having the capability of extracting data from VisionOne for specific areas of the tool could work. That's something that could be useful, especially if we want to generate that report and send it to specific teams. Often, we don't want to provide DX to all the people. Sometimes it's easier to just have that file and share that file with the people who need to have that information. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for around three years now. 

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability is good. It's not very common to have any outages. Sometimes there may be a glitch, however, it's rare. Normally we have 95% stability.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The scalability is good, especially when we are talking about third-party integrations. We can have visibility and control of all different assets. So we can have good scalability and visibility and know more about the environment in places where we didn't have any idea things were happening. It's a SaaS tool, and we don't have to do any maintenance, and it's easy to deploy. It's pretty straightforward.

How are customer service and support?

When we have specific issues or problems connecting some products we ask for support. They respond really fast. They always try to mitigate and resolve all the issues we have. If they cannot resolve the problem, they normally share some suggestions on how we can mitigate future problems.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

We did not use other solutions, although we did use Apex One for a long time. We have also used an EDR product.

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the deployment. I was the one leading the data during the implementation. The process is pretty straightforward. It was a little tricky to reduce the false positive alerts, however, the portion of deploying to the environment and connecting the pieces was simple. 

From our side, we had three or four people involved in the implementation. 

What about the implementation team?

We had some help with the deployment and we had some guidance in the beginning. We requested some support from our account manager.

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

The pricing is good if you look at all the compatibilities and features offered by the product. There are features that can increase the pricing. We can put some credits to some features, however, if we want to enable them. With the amount of credit we have, we are covered for all of our needs.

What other advice do I have?

I'd rate the product eight out of ten.

It is a really good product and easy to deploy. They allow you to have more visibility on your environment, especially if you have any kind of XDR solution. It will increase the visibility of what's happening in the environment. Also, from the perspective of doing maintenance updates or patches, the cloud is the way to go. The product management team does a really good job of increasing the features, and they are listening really closely to what the customer needs via feedback. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Great network protection, a centralized view, and user-friendly
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable feature is the network protection shield on every server, which isolates attacks and prevents our clients from being affected."
  • "The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."

What is our primary use case?

We use Trend Micro XDR to enhance our security framework.

One of our partners was the victim of a major attack, and we realized that our environment was susceptible to the same thing because we were only using an antivirus solution. 

Trend Micro XDR is deployed on-premises, and we use it on our core business servers, clients, and the management portal to protect all of our network nodes from attacks.

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Micro Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across protection layers, which is important. It is part of our monitoring tool. The visibility gives us a centralized view of our network nodes, activities, and possible attacks.

The risk index feature plays an important role in our KPIs, which we report to the management team. Our business is dependent on our systems running 24/7.

Trend Micro XDR has helped decrease our time to detect and respond to threats.

Trend Micro XDR has reduced the time we spend investigating false positive alerts by 50 percent.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable feature is the network protection shield on every server, which isolates attacks and prevents our clients from being affected.

What needs improvement?

The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought. We are working with an expert from Trend Micro to improve the rollout process, but it has taken some time and we do not yet have a concrete understanding of the issue. There are some features that we have to install repeatedly before they start running.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro XDR for one year.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is scalable.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support is good.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The deployment took six to eight weeks to complete. We had around five part-time people involved in the deployment.

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

Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro. We pay for an annual license.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

Currently, we are researching the question of whether to use Trend Micro XDR when we switch from our classic NPLS internal corporate lines to an SD-WAN solution. Or if we should use an integrated solution from the SD-WAN and firewall provider, such as Palo Alto or Fortinet.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate Trend Micro XDR eight out of ten.

We have 300 people in our organization that use the solution.

Maintenance is easy and done by two people, who update, patch, and install new servers; client-side, they also update user stations and analyze logs.

I recommend Trend Micro XDR. It is user-friendly.

Has a good workbench feature and observed attack technique which gives quick insights
Pros and Cons
  • "I like XDR's workbench feature and observed attack technique. It generates an alert once certain conditions are met. For example, let's say there's a threat called malicious.exe being deployed on your system. It will generate an alert with information like the file path, location, hash, etc. You also see a relational matrix showing how that file was executed and which processes were installed."
  • "Also, XDR should improve its coverage of the latest IOCs. Their suspicious object management works, but the coverage should be improved. It will take one or two months to get those things covered. XDR will detect on a behavioral basis, but these databases will not get updated daily like some other solutions. If you're dealing with new ransomware or malware, it may take around a month before it's covered by Trend Micro. Update: Working better than it was previouslyt and multiple files are getting detected as soon as launched."

What is our primary use case?

We had a SIEM in place, but we wanted to do some behavioral analysis of the files that are getting deployed. We wanted to check to ensure that it was nothing with the external registration side. We needed an EDR solution for checking and monitoring everything deployed on this target machine or our host machine site. It will check and detect if any malicious files are there or not. We are getting alerts related to that kind of thing. So we used to check those alerts on the XDR, and we used to, like, do the incident and response to that kind of thing there. This is I guess better than the crowdstrike if the MSP program is not there. 

How has it helped my organization?

If you have a SIEM in place, you will only get the network logs. XDR gives you more control over what files are getting deployed, how they are being executed, and how they can potentially harm your system. XDR doesn't work like a normal antivirus solution, which uses signatures to detect and block threats. XDR detects based on behavioral analysis and blocks most things.

It reduces the investigation time because it gives you everything, including how the file was executed, which processes it called, the file name, the stemming, and the time. When we have the endpoint name, we can reach out directly to the endpoint owners and communicate with them regarding those alerts. This was really hepful as it saved our time and we were able to mitigate the risks withing minutes.

What is most valuable?

I like XDR's workbench feature and observed attack technique. It generates an alert once certain conditions are met. For example, let's say there's a threat called malicious.exe being deployed on your system. It will generate an alert with information like the file path, location, hash, etc. You also see a relational matrix showing how that file was executed and which processes were installed.

It's a SaaS solution that covers endpoints, email, and cloud. We have agents installed wherever data is being pushed, so it used to give us a payload. Cloud functionality is one of the most critical things because we don't generally have visibility for cloud applications. Once we install the agents, we gain visibility into all the things integrated on the cloud or any SSH attempts.

XDR offers visibility across layers. This is critical when you want to implement some policies and apply exclusions for particular parts of the system that should not get scanned. It's easy to implement those things. Let's say you want to deploy policies for multiple systems. Using Apex Central, you can directly push the policy to various systems and cover the logs of several systems at a time. 

What needs improvement?

Sometimes, there are some false positives. For example, once a user had a file in their system named recovery.txt. The solution was flagging that as a ransom note, so we were confused. It isn't that serious, but it should be improved. 

Also, XDR should improve its coverage of the latest IOCs. Their suspicious object management works, but the coverage should be improved. It will take one or two months to get those things covered. XDR will detect on a behavioral basis, but these databases will not get updated daily like some other solutions. If you're dealing with new ransomware or malware, it may take around a month before it's covered by Trend Micro. 

Update:

The coverage now improved and the trend micro detect many new launched malwares and files. Also the AI has made a great difference in this as they are also using AI.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have used XDR for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is stable. We've never had downtime. Not yet once.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is scalable if you can pay more for licenses. 

How are customer service and support?

I rate Trend Micro support seven out of 10. Their technical support is good. They reply regarding your cases. However, if you don't reply to them properly, they may close your case if you are not reviewing that kind of thing. 

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

 I previously used Crowdstrike, which is an MDR, so it was totally managed by the Crowdstrike team. They were monitoring every alert that was generated, so it's hard to compare it to Trend Micro XDR. It was somewhat similar, but CrowdStrike is more proactive than Trend Micro, and it has greater coverage of IOCs. I have also used SentinelOne.

How was the initial setup?

It's a SaaS solution deployed across multiple locations covering 20,000 endpoints. It doesn't require any maintenance aside from updates. 

What other advice do I have?

I rate Trend Micro XDR seven out of 10. If you plan to implement XDR you should be aware of the IOC coverage and follow up with the Trend Micro team. Most things are covered, but it takes time to add and deploy all that stuff.

Good protection with centralized visibility and nice executive dashboards
Pros and Cons
  • "The centralized visibility is good."
  • "The support should be improved."

What is our primary use case?

It offers very good ransomware protection. You have more visibility on the network.

How has it helped my organization?

It helps with compliance. We are also well-protected from ransomware and network attacks.

It's improved our organization in two ways: we can have more visibility and have more confidence in security. We also have better reporting for regulatory compliance. 

What is most valuable?

The endpoint protection is the most useful. It's powerful. I've faced issues with other products regarding ransomware; however, with Trend Micro, I have no fear of network attacks. I have experience with consistent protection. 

Customers have NDR and XDR protection, and it's very good for protection. There are also regulations within our country that require us to use XDR. 

The centralized visibility is good. It's great for the IT team as they have to export reports to management for compliance. It helps with reporting. It's essential. 

The centralized visibility and management across protection layers helped our efficiency. We have a limited number of security engineers. With Trend Micro and its centralized dashboard, it will show everything we've learned and reflect reporting on the dashboard and this helps when you have a limited amount of users. It simply reduces the number of people that need to be involved in the security effort. 

We use the executive dashboards on both sides. We can drill down on them right into XDR detection. It's essential when we have an incident. If we need to know more about the threat, we need to know where and how they are attacking. We can drill down and get forensic data. 

The solution's risk index feature is very good. It comes out of the box. Our customers can use it. 

The product has helped us decrease our time to detect and respond to threats. 

What needs improvement?

It took some time to realize the benefits, as we had some issues with support. It took us three to four months to realize its benefits. 

The support should be improved. 

We'd like to see deception features in the next release. It would help us to reduce false positive alerts. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution for seven years now.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The stability is good overall. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

The solution is scalable. You simply need the resources on the VM, and you can easily change your license. 

How are customer service and support?

We've had issues with support. Their services could be improved. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Neutral

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

I have used Fidelis and found you can control the endpoints better. They also have a deception module, which is very powerful. You can manage your endpoints perfectly. It also offers very good network visibility. I use both products. It depends on the customer's needs and approach.

How was the initial setup?

I observed the deployment process. 

We had issues. It should be straightforward; however, with a customer, we faced a problem with technical support. It took us almost eight months to deploy. They had issues with the installation on the endpoints and on the network side. We had a problem with a few things, including use cases. 

The plan was to deploy in two weeks, and yet it took almost eight months.

From the customer side, there were three engineers, and from Trend Micro, there were one or two engineers working on the solution.

Almost every two weeks, there are maintenance calls. The customer has three people handling maintenance duties. 

What about the implementation team?

The solution was deployed by support. 

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

The pricing is average. The costs are acceptable. It's good for small or medium-sized businesses. 

What other advice do I have?

I'm a partner. 

We're using the latest version of the solution. 

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten. 

For enterprise customers, I wouldn't recommend the solution. However, it's a good solution for small or medium customers. New users need to ensure they have the correct sizing and licensing. 

You need to talk to the right support engineers in order to have a smooth experience. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

On-premises

Simple monitoring with centralized dashboards and great visibility into vulnerabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "The most important thing for us as a customer is that we can spend more time in other places as it's simpler to have that overview. We have much more time for other tasks."
  • "They should increase their potential for third-party integrations."

What is our primary use case?

The reason we invested in Trend Micro XDR was to consolidate security operations and monitoring. On top of that, we invested in their managed detection and response service, which they can provide on top of the ETA service, which makes our lives easier. You can say that with it, we need fewer hands.

How has it helped my organization?

We're able to gather a more simple view of what was going on in our infrastructure. Before this solution, we used a SIEM system. Trend Micro XDR made monitoring more simple, and we trusted them as a security partner.

It definitely has improved our visibility of all of our ongoing items in the infrastructure. We can get a good overview of what's going on across our network and what our security looks like.  

What is most valuable?

Having everything under one management console and having them monitored from one place is the most beneficial.

It saves time and we do not have to invest in a lot of products to meet all of our use case needs.

It's quite simple to monitor everything under one console. It makes life simpler for our operations team. 

We have the solution everywhere, including email, network, endpoints, and cloud. This is important to have this coverage. As a former incident response analyst, having visibility everywhere is really important. Having everything correlated into one place increases visibility.

We have centralized visibility and management across our production layers. They are also improving that from month to month. It's important for us. In security operations, the fewer places you need to go to have a look around, the easier it is. Back in the day, we had to open ten different consoles. Now we just open one. 

The most important thing for us as a customer is that we can spend more time in other places as it's simpler to have that overview. We have much more time for other tasks. 

We use the solution's executive dashboards. We like that we can drill down from the dashboards into XDR detections. It helps the C-suite understand. However, it also helps us drill down by allowing us to choose which views we want. 

We have a trial version of the Risk Index. We have a daily look at it and it gives a nice overview of our vulnerability management and what the attack surface looks like. It helps us prioritize our daily tasks. 

The Managed XDR service was great. It helped quite a lot. We had to get used to working with them and they with us, however, now it's quite an easy task and the advisory and alerts we get from them have been helpful. The availability to work on other tasks has helped us improve in other areas. It's positively affected our business. Having this product means that we are improving in a lot of different areas that we also need to focus on. They can do the monitoring better than we can do it ourselves. We don't have the manpower to do it on our own so it helps a lot to have them help with management.

We use the Attack Surface Risk Management capabilities, which are also in the trial period. It's absolutely helped us to identify blind spots in our environment. It made us realize that, for example, users were using their work email for private services such as Netflix or other services that, if they had a data breach, would be an issue. With this, we can reach out to those users and explain to them how to act on the Internet, not to use your work email for private services, et cetera.

It's helped decrease our time to detect and respond to threats. It's likely 80% faster now. It's also helped us reduce the time we spend investigating false positive alerts. They do a lot of the initial work for us and come back with the actions we need to do on our part (if any). It's helped us reduce false positive investigations by 50%.

We're using some of the automation capabilities of XDR. It's helped us save time. At the moment, it's likely helped us save 20% of the time we'd normally spend on manual processes. 

What needs improvement?

They should increase their potential for third-party integrations. We'd like to see integrations with other IT security vendors that are not currently there. 

I'd like to see central management of all products.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using the solution since it came out, essentially. I've been working with it for eight or nine years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

The solution is quite stable. 

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

We don't have branch offices, however we have 2200 clients and 800 servers. 

It is easy to scale if you are a bigger organization. We do plan to scale further in the future. 

How are customer service and support?

We have Service One, which includes three-year support. It is 24/7/365 support and they are quite good. 

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

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

Before Trend Micro, we used Splunk. The use case and monitoring were easier with Trend Micro. We found it easier to fulfill our needs using Trend Micro. 

How was the initial setup?

I was involved in the deployment process. Some of it was quite complex. Unfortunately, we had an on-prem environment that wasn't well taken care of. The migration was hard, however, that was more our fault. It could be easier to migrate, however. 

It took us about nine months to fully deploy. 

We already had some products in the cloud, however, we needed to migrate all of our endpoints. The on-premise agent needed to be placed in the cloud and we had some problems as some clients did not have an opening to the internet, et cera. There was some preparation we needed to do. We needed to do some upgrading before migrating. 

There were two to four people performing the implementation. 

The solution requires maintenance and we have a person that manages that. 

What about the implementation team?

We had help from Trend Micro professional services. 

What was our ROI?

We have noted an ROI. Having them monitor our IT solutions allowed us to have fewer people on the team. It's saved us in man hours. 

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

The solution is affordable. You do need to pay additional fees for some of the functionalities.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We also evaluated Microsoft's solutions. 

What other advice do I have?

I'm a customer and end-user.

We realized the benefits of the solution pretty fast - within a couple of weeks. We knew the benefits beforehand which is why we chose Trend Micro. The possibility of having the solution monitored by the vendor itself was quite helpful. 

I'd rate the solution nine out of ten. 

I would advise others to prepare your needs beforehand. If you know those, you will know Trend Micros is the right fit for you. It's great. If there's a problem with central management or monitoring, Trend Micros is quite useful. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

A comprehensive solution that is not overly complex to use or manage
Pros and Cons
  • "Trend Micro XDR is a comprehensive solution that is not overly complex to use or manage."
  • "I would like to have more integration with mobile device management."

What is our primary use case?

Trend Micro XDR is utilized for security management, and we apply it to our email, network, and endpoints.

Trend Micro XDR is based on its proprietary cloud.

How has it helped my organization?

Trend Micro provides us with centralized visibility and management across protection layers, which are important to our organization.

The centralized visibility and management across both layers improve our efficiency by offering central security without the need for extensive management or fine-tuning. Trend Micro is also comprehensive and user-friendly. We have confidence in the results.

The risk index provides us with insights into potentially vulnerable areas or aspects that we may need to double-check to ensure everything is working as expected. In other words, it's a useful tool to obtain a quick overview of parts that could be more exposed to risks and other potential issues.

Trend Micro helps reduce our MTTD and MTTR.

Trend Micro presents results in a comprehensive and easy-to-read manner, which helps reduce the time we spend investigating false positive alerts.

We utilize Trend Micro's automation capabilities for alerting and categorizing emails into specific categories based on their risk level.

What is most valuable?

Trend Micro XDR is a comprehensive solution that is not overly complex to use or manage. The security results have been quite good.

What needs improvement?

I would like to have more integration with mobile device management.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro XDR for three years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is stable.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

Trend Micro XDR is scalable. As a small company, the licenses we have are sufficient to meet our needs.

How are customer service and support?

The technical support team is excellent, and they were able to answer our questions to our satisfaction.

How would you rate customer service and support?

Positive

How was the initial setup?

The deployment did not appear to be complex, but it was managed by Pro-Axis, who utilized a large workforce to ensure the swift completion of the deployment.

What about the implementation team?

We engaged an external partner named Pro-Axis to assist us with migrating from Trend Micro on-premises to Trend Micro XDR. Their services were excellent, and we did not encounter any unexpected issues. We were fully satisfied with the migration process as Pro-Axis promptly restored our services.

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

The pricing is competitive, and the cost aligns with the features we receive. The license fee covers all of our needs.

What other advice do I have?

I give Trend Micro XDR a nine out of ten.

We were initially using Trend Micro on-premises and then expanded our usage by implementing XDR. We were satisfied with the solution and its features, so we made the decision to stick with Trend Micro.

A small team is required for maintenance, which will not impose a significant burden on our IT team.

Our entire organization uses the solution.

I suggest trying out the trial of Trend Micro XDR to assess its suitability for their environment. It can be a good solution for small or medium-sized organizations, but keep in mind that everyone has their own specific requirements.

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
