TrendAI Vision One Reviews

We use Trend Vision One as our primary security solution on all endpoints, servers, and clients in our environment. Through third-party integrations, we’ve also connected solutions from other vendors (including VMware and Fortinet).

Trend Vision One has increased our endpoint visibility and reduced attack vectors. We can now identify and respond to vulnerabilities and threats faster. This has reduced our response time by an estimated 25–30%. Vision One provides notifications about specific risks and helps us understand where the general risks lie, enabling proactive mitigation.

With other vendors, we’ve had to manually check for vulnerabilities in products and assess whether those vulnerabilities were relevant. Now, Vision One handles much of that process. It provides detailed information for each user and endpoint about existing risks and how to mitigate them.

I often compare patching vulnerabilities in Cyber Risk Exposure Management (CREM) to playing a game — the goal is to collect as few points as possible. The lower our score, the more secure our environment is. And like in real life, there are ups and downs because new risks arise daily. Vision One is an important tool for communicating risk assessments to management while also helping operational staff understand what risks mean and how to reduce them.

The feature I find most valuable in Vision One is CREM. CREM helps our company identify blind spots. It provides detailed information about the actions and improvements we should take to secure our environment, and gives concrete recommendations about how to resolve vulnerabilities.

As part of our Service One Complete service agreement, we have bi-weekly meetings with a Technical Account Manager (TAM) who advises us on improving security settings and informs us — even between meetings — about new attack scenarios and how to counter them.

It’s hard to pinpoint areas where Vision One could be improved or where additional features are needed. I’ve been working with the solution for three years, and Trend Micro is constantly developing. Sometimes, it’s hard to keep track of all the updates and added features.

I feel that Trend Micro is now better at identifying my needs than I am at recognizing them myself.

Vision One has been in use at the company for three years.

The stability is excellent. In my opinion, performance and availability are both very good.

The scalability of the solution is very good. We have not encountered any limitations as our environment has grown.

I would rate customer service extremely positively. Support responds quickly, and together we’ve been able to solve all challenges in our day-to-day operations. On a scale from 1 to 10, I would rate customer service and technical support a 9 — there should always be room for improvement.

Before Trend Vision One, we used a solution from Kaspersky. The switch was prompted by the German BSI’s security warning regarding Kaspersky's antivirus products.

I was heavily involved in the rollout and deployment of the solution. Implementation was relatively quick and smooth. We used a deployment script distributed to endpoints through our software distribution system.

Our rollout strategy started with a small number of endpoints being configured with antivirus and policies. After reviewing and refining the policies, Vision One was rolled out in phases to the remaining endpoints.

We needed only one staff member for the implementation of Trend Vision One, and that was me.

The investment in Trend Micro Vision One has paid off, although ROI is difficult to calculate. A security solution is like a good insurance policy — ideally, you never need to use it. We haven’t had any incidents so far, and hope it stays that way.

I’ve noticed that the continuous visibility of potential risks has made our environment more secure and has enabled colleagues to respond faster, saving valuable working time.

Before we decided on Vision One, we also evaluated solutions from other vendors, including Microsoft and Fortinet. The differences between the products were not significant — they were more in the details. But since we had already been a Trend partner for 15 years (12 of them inactive), we ultimately decided to return to Trend Micro.

Three years ago, we followed a different concept: two independent security solutions with separate management and reporting. Migrating to Vision One and consolidating everything into one interface gave us a 365° view of our IT infrastructure.

Central visibility of endpoints and vulnerabilities, as well asunified management, brought a new level of focus to IT security and boosted employee awareness.

If you're evaluating Trend Micro, don’t limit yourself to antivirus functionalities. Consider other features as well — especially the Managed Services, (strong technical support), and Cyber Risk Exposure Management capabilities, which I find highly valuable.

Create a centralized view of your IT infrastructure.

Define which features are important or necessary for you.

Get a comprehensive overview when evaluating different security vendors in terms of features and costs — so you’re not comparing apples to oranges.

My use case for the solution is primarily for EDR purposes, but we are also starting to use the CREM.  This technology allows us to see our endpoints within seconds to ensure they are NIST 800-83 compliant.  This technology is critical in today's world as there are many customers requiring this now.  

We have used advanced threat intelligence, and we continue to do so. There is a way to run a threat query to find where a certain item is located. For example, Quick Assist from Microsoft was used a while back to gain access to our environment, and we didn't know it at the time. Of course, we've since locked that down. Now, we can also use that query we created to monitor if someone tries to use it again. I recently saw an attempt to use it, but they couldn't succeed because we have it blocked. It's really good to know these things, and without the available technology, we wouldn’t be able to do this.

Trend Vision One's automation capabilities have helped, for example, with atypical travel. We have a playbook set up. When Trend Vision One finds someone signed on in the United States and then catches them signed on in Africa, it will immediately run a playbook. This will disable that profile and prohibit that person from logging in. That is huge when you consider the possibilities of what could happen if we didn’t have that feature.

Our response time is greatly enhanced because of all the features that Trend Vision One offers. It simplifies things and makes it clear what’s going on inside our environment. With just a click of a button, we can get the information we need. We can mitigate issues very quickly using Trend Vision One. We can isolate endpoints, effectively removing them from the network while still accessing them through the Trend Vision One console. Additionally, we can run malware scans instantly on computers, and there are so many features available that it can be hard to keep track of them sometimes. Overall, Trend Vision One has really helped a lot. When it comes to time savings, I would estimate that our response time has improved by at least 40%.

Using this solution has benefited our business greatly. It keeps me informed of everything happening in our environment. We have site admins at every location with specific admin authority to do certain things. Trend Vision One monitors that, allowing me to validate actions taken by admins. Trend Vision One caught various incidents, and it gives me a clear understanding of our environment and its activities, with quick searches and deeper capabilities.

With Trend Vision One, my favorite feature is the app they provide. You can turn on different features and notifications. The other night I was sitting at supper when the app went off, and I got an alert that was very strange. It turned out to be an event, and we got our cyber team together to mitigate the issue with Trend's IR Teams help, preventing any major problems. That app is a lifesaver.

The dashboard provides extensive information. It gives detailed information regarding endpoints and servers, tracking everything. You can search for things and run threat analysis. There are many features within there, and it's difficult to pinpoint one because all the features work very effectively together.

The centralized management feature contributes to faster decision-making within our security operations, greatly enhancing our response time. With all the features that Trend Vision One offers, it simplifies things. It clarifies what's going on inside your environment; with a click of a button, you can see what's happening and mitigate very fast.

In Trend Vision One, there is always room for improvement. The console is well done, but there might be a bit of improvement needed with the app's capabilities. I know they are constantly working on it, and they have regular Webinars "What's New In Trend Vision One" to share updates and enhancements that are taking place.  

Trend also allows its VIP customers to pretest new features or products and enables us to give feedback on those we test.  This is an incredible benefit to Trend's VIP program.  I do not know of any other product like Trend Micro.

I've been using this solution for quite a while. It was about eight years ago when our company had Trend implemented at every location. We have eleven locations overall. In my opinion, it wasn't managed properly; the situation was quite poor. There were many updates that were needed. I approached management and expressed my desire to take over the project. I said, "I want this. I will do it, fix it, and make it work." Management agreed and gave me the responsibility.

What I did next was take all the servers, fix and upgrade them, and prepare them for migration to one on-site server. After that, we decided to move to the cloud. I gathered everything together and worked with Trend to get all of our endpoints and servers transitioned to the cloud. It's been an ongoing process with Trend, as there is always something that needs to be done.

I rate the stability of Trend Vision One as a ten out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of Trend Vision One as nine out of ten.

It is really good. They even have a feedback system to report suggestions or problems, which are addressed promptly. We also benefit from 24/7 monitoring, and we have direct contacts for technical issues and ongoing weekly support calls.

I would rate them a nine out of ten. There's always room for improvement. Five years ago, I would rate it as a five, but support has significantly improved in availability, responsiveness, and keeping me updated.

We purchased the software through CDW, which used to be called Sirius. That's how we acquired it. I have several contacts at Trend that I can reach out to directly, as I have been working with them for about eight years. They have helped me implement the software directly. I worked with Trend through the entire process. They have a learning platform with videos that break down each product. They show you step-by-step how to implement or use each solution. Trend Micro Service One, monitors our corporation, 24/7/365 support service. We can contact a representative, and they’ll get back to us if we encounter any problems or technical issues in our environment. They’ll even join us on a conference call to help. We also have a weekly call with them, where we can ask questions, and they guide us to the right resources and documentation. It’s really an incredible support package.

It wasn’t complicated to deploy. Now they offer a product called Server and Workload Protection, which is tailored specifically for servers. We're in the process of upgrading our servers to use this product. It’s more focused on server-specific security and functionality. When I used it about five years ago, the process was quite complex. I had problems and issues. Over the years, we moved away from the product — about four years ago — and we’re only now starting to return to it. The changes made in those four years are incredible. It’s like night and day. What used to take me days to deploy to one server now takes about half an hour. Trend is constantly updating, enhancing, and improving how things are done. It’s a continually evolving package. They’re even integrating AI capabilities now, which will greatly enhance what Trend products can do.

The capability of Trend Vision One to be deployed both on-premises and in the cloud has been extremely beneficial to my organization in terms of flexibility and scalability. Being in the cloud eliminates the need for on-prem servers. With several divisions, managing all of those on-prem servers was a nightmare. It was not an option, so I migrated to the cloud, which is a one-stop shop. We have our entire corporation in the cloud, making it easy to see everything without logging onto multiple servers; this saves a lot of time.

The solution itself does require some maintenance. The updates are automatic, so we don't need to manually check. However, some endpoints have to be maintained more carefully, ensuring they are fully updated because missing MS updates can prevent Trend Vision One from working correctly. It's good practice to keep everything up to date, which is crucial for managing over 1,000 endpoints and 200 servers. Trend Vision One allows us to see all software on a person's computer, even outdated web browsers, and it flags potential threats, which is an incredible feature.

In my organization, approximately three people work with Trend Vision One.

In terms of return on investment, I've seen a 100% return. It has paid for itself. Our company went through a ransomware event, and if Trend Vision One's IR Team had not stopped it, that could've closed the company's doors.

Trend Vision One is definitely cost-efficient compared to other solutions. I have seen others that are double or triple the price. I'm surprised Trend Vision One hasn't raised their prices, considering everything offered. Depending on the features selected, cost varies, but overall, endpoint and server security is very reasonable.

Comparing Trend Vision One to other solutions, I've seen other vendors with complicated software requiring extensive training to understand. If software is that hard to learn, I don't find it to be a viable solution. Learning takes weeks or months, potentially creating holes in security instead of securing it.

I would absolutely recommend Trend Vision One to other users because it's cost-efficient and it just works. It tells you what you need to do, alerts you of threats, and informs you about software needing updates. They have an IR team that is exceptional and works on the mitigation and remediation until all issues have been resolved!  Over time, it becomes easier to understand, especially moving from on-prem to cloud deployment; there's no comparison. 

I would rate the solution overall as a ten out of ten.

Our usual use cases for Trend Vision One involve the detection of any kind of threat. We are getting alerts from the workbench on Trend Vision One and we perform threat hunting. If there are false positives, we close them, and in the case of true positives, we take action toward remediation and closure. Predominantly, we use it for threat management.

Trend Vision One is an integrated platform where I can get all the information about all the endpoints, whether it be a server, laptop, or desktop. Everything is integrated, allowing me to see everything within one console; that is one of the greatest advantages of Trend Vision One.

In terms of centralized visibility and management across protection layers, Trend Vision One provides protection across all attack vectors. It allows us to manage threats in all phases. We can even perform forensics where we can collect suspicious files remotely to submit to Trend Micro.

Trend Vision One helps reduce the time to detect and respond to threats. We get alerts in real-time. We receive notifications as email alerts, as well as alerts in the console. Through the workbench, we can monitor the console 24/7 with real-time information; there is not much delay.

Trend Vision One has helped us reduce noise from false positives, thanks to the SOAR functionality. We are able to configure automatic responses, and in case any false positives are identified, the Vision One console takes care of them automatically. This helps us reduce a lot of false positives.

Trend Vision One has indeed helped consolidate our use of security vendors and reduce silos. We sometimes get threat notifications from other vendor products, such as Microsoft Cloud App Security, which identifies threats, and we can trace similar traffic from the endpoints in Vision One. This correlation adds more value for our clients.

The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One is response management; when there is a malware issue, we need to isolate the endpoint, which I can do through response management. I can isolate an endpoint, restore the endpoint, and run manual malware scans, which will be very useful when performing malware remediation actions.

In future releases of Trend Vision One, I would like to see improvements regarding role-based access control, as it is important to ensure that when granting admin access to a person, their visibility is limited to only their respective markets. For example, while creating roles for countries like France, Germany, and Italy, they should only manage their own endpoints to maintain privacy and security.

I have been working with Trend Vision One for more than 2 years.

I have not encountered any issues with the stability of Trend Vision One. There have been no problems at all.

Stability is critically important for us with Trend Vision One; it is very stable, providing continuous 24/7 support, and we do not face challenges in accessing services from Trend Micro.

Regarding scalability, Trend Vision One accommodates many endpoints without any challenges, allowing easy expansion of our portfolio.

I would rate the technical support for Trend Vision One a perfect 10 out of 10, as Trend Micro supported us throughout the transition from on-prem servers or other vendors, providing top-notch service at all times.

Positive

Before using Trend Vision One, we were utilizing McAfee, and some of our clients were using Symantec. Currently, most clients have transitioned to Trend Micro.

The decision to switch from McAfee was driven by factors such as high costs and the global presence of organizations. Trend Micro has a more robust global reach and its pricing is very competitive compared to McAfee.

The initial setup of Trend Vision One is not complex; it is straightforward. We had the options in the Trend Vision One console, and we received training from Trend Micro-certified administrators. We had knowledge transfer sessions, and later, we successfully migrated our products from on-prem servers to the cloud. 

We have been using the product for more than 7 to 8 years, and we did not face any challenges during this migration.

We have seen a return on investment with Trend Vision One, primarily in terms of having more confidence in addressing any kind of suspicious activities. Any such activities will be notified to us, allowing us to take action. The return on investment is apparent in managing the endpoints and addressing suspicious activity that might otherwise go unnoticed.

It has saved about 25% to 30% of our time. The risk has been reduced by more than 25% after switching to Trend Vision One.

Its price is very decent. It suits our requirements.

I did evaluate other options, including Microsoft Sentinel, but ultimately, most vendors choose Trend Vision One.

The factors that led us to choose Trend Vision One over Microsoft or other options include costs, and since we already have Microsoft for other protections (like M365 security protection), we opted for protection with a different vendor, rather than the same vendor.

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

My use cases for Trend Vision One are typically reactive, letting it scan and monitor our environment, and we typically respond quickly to any workbenches that come up. 

We also try to adapt to the Cyber Risk Index or the security score, keeping that at the lowest amount possible on a weekly or bi-weekly basis as we push out updates and do maintenance.

My favorite features in Trend Vision One include the Cyber Risk Index, which breaks down various pieces of info into one easily digestible score. I appreciate the workbenches. They provide a visual of how they operate for the most part, and I value the in-depth details they offer since we can mostly operate off of that, giving us enough info to crunch and figure out what's happening.

While it's not an actual feature of the application, I appreciate the clinics and seminars that Trend provides, as I went to one last year that got me from zero to beginner, and I hope to advance to intermediate with another seminar series this year.

Trend Vision One helps reduce my mean time to detect and respond to threats as without it, we would be scrambling and confused with not much information to go off of for threat hunting. I'm not sure what we were using previously. As long as I've been here, it's been Trend Vision One, and we're very happy with it. We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider since we think it's a very good product, and we appreciate the speed and breadth of data we receive from it.

I sometimes see noise from false positives with Trend Vision One. One clear instance involved the AI deep fake feature, which would throw up false positives whenever someone had a Teams meeting with a blurred background, leading us to turn it off as it activated for every meeting. Additionally, there were minor false positives throughout the year related to Microsoft update files and certain DLLs, however, they don't clutter Trend Vision One much and have essentially gone away in recent months.

I am very happy with Trend Vision One's platform ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers. The platform extends into various categories, offering oversight over email and even flagging suspicious activities that occur on a server, despite not having a Trend Vision One agent on it. For instance, an admin setting up remote access on that server was flagged as suspicious, and I appreciate the reach that Trend Vision One has across different scattered categories it monitors.

In terms of improving Trend Vision One, it might sound silly, yet it seems notoriously uncooperative with middle clicks and opening sections in new tabs. I'm a big tab browser, and it feels hitting a brick wall when I have to refresh in a new tab or make a copy of a tab to move forward. If we can enable middle clicks to open sections in new tabs, it would greatly benefit me personally.

I've been using Trend Vision One for a few months, approximately eight to ten months at this point.

Regarding stability, I don't think Trend Vision One has ever caused any lagging, crashing, or downtime. There was one situation where we may have misconfigured something, forgetting a checkbox, and Trend Vision One's scheduled scans might have used some CPU resources, however, that's on our end. Besides that, Trend Vision One works exactly as intended and has never hindered our operations, feeling more a collaborator than a roadblock.

I don't think I've encountered any issues with scalability; we're growing steadily, and I believe Trend Vision One can keep up with our demand. Our company has about 200 employees in Canada, and I can foresee that if we doubled in size, Trend Vision One would accommodate that very easily.

I have contacted the technical support before. We're very happy with the technical support from Trend Vision One, feeling we have our own dedicated technician who knows the entire suite of applications. They are very intelligent and responsive, and as we submit feature requests, they seem to make it into the actual list of features in Trend Vision One, so we maintain a good relationship with their technical support and development teams.

Positive

I'm not sure what we were using previously. As long as I've been here, it's been Trend Vision One, and we're very happy with it. We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider as we consider it a very good product.

The experience of first using Trend Vision One is really difficult due to the steep learning curve. Thankfully, I attended a Trend Vision One seminar that got me from zero to beginner, as without that, it involves a lot of guesswork with little grounding to go off of. I really recommend their seminars and tutorials.

I do not know much about the pricing of Trend Vision One. My understanding is it's expensive. We pay for it anyway, and there's always sticker shock. Still, we feel it's necessary as this product covers all our needs.

We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider. Trend Vision One is a very good product, and we appreciate the speed and breadth of data we receive from it.

I'm not sure if I use the cyber risk exposure management capabilities. Trend Vision One requires very little maintenance on my end, mostly just keeping up with refreshing the license, which is about all I hear related to Trend Vision One maintenance.

Some top security challenges in my industry include securing anything exposed to the internet, especially since we were previously hit with ransomware. The ability of Trend Vision One to detect and cut off threats early, clean up files before they execute, and address phishing emails helps us significantly. We also have their email and collaborative security, which is crucial along with having zero-day protections to receive early warnings of threats, allowing us to act immediately outside our maintenance windows.

I'm not completely sure where we use the Trend Vision One sensors, as I didn't set them up. However, we do have a DDI that we paid a lot for, which is one of our biggest data sources and populates much of the information in Trend Vision One. We also have a network sensor at our different location in the United States, which is a temporary holdover until we can upgrade to something more robust.

It's not critical for my company that Trend Vision One has AI built into its platform in terms of needing a language model to explain things, however, AI is actually critical for threat detection and behavioral analysis. That aspect of behavior monitoring and action based on behavior is very important.

Trend Vision One has helped my organization reduce its cyber risk. For instance, even prior to acquiring the DDI, the DDI's presence on our network found a threat actively in progress, and we were able to act on it, demonstrating its effectiveness from day zero.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Trend Vision One a nine overall.

Our use case for Trend Vision One is for our security platform. We use it for antivirus, XDR, and network telemetry purposes.

Trend Vision One helped us to consolidate our use of security vendors and reduce silos. We had three or four consoles from different products, and we consolidated them into one console with this product. 

Trend Vision One helped reduce the time to detect and respond to threats by 70% to 80%.

Trend Vision One has helped us reduce noise from false positives.

We have been using cyber risk exposure management for 2 months since upgrading in April. It helps us identify blind spots by providing more visibility and insights into our environment, making it a valuable feature. 

We use the network sensor, and its coverage is critical. With SIEM, we gain substantial insights into our environment, and having a complete 360 view is necessary in today's security world. It reduces the risk by 50%.

Having AI built into the Trend Vision One platform is important for our organization. It reduces many manual steps, resulting in more and quicker detections and advanced automation for remediation, improving efficiency by 60% to 70%. The solution aims to reduce risks and enhance detection.

I like how easy it is, and there is a single pane of glass. We have one console for everything. 

Trend Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across protection layers. It has the functionality of different products and management of a single pane of glass. We have one console for everything. As a security engineer, it's easier to check the alerts and find everything. It consolidates a lot of consoles into one, and that's what we like most about it.

Vulnerability scanning could be improved. They need to see more CVEs and scan products for known vulnerabilities, allowing for better display and review of potentially exploitable servers by hackers or through configuration settings.

We have been using Trend Vision One for approximately 18 months.

We haven't experienced any stability issues. It has proven to be stable.

The scalability of Trend Vision One is good.

I have contacted technical support from Trend Micro. The quality and speed of support are good.

Positive

It was easy. It took us one day to fully deploy Trend Vision One.

Some maintenance is required for updating agents on the servers.

The deployment involved just one person working with the vendor in one day.

Trend Vision One has reduced risks by 50%. We have reduced the response time by approximately 70%-80%.

When we have a good product such as Trend Vision One, the price is fine.

We have used Trend Micro products for many years, and we upgraded to Trend Vision One. We didn't test any alternatives, staying with what we've used for years.

I would rate Trend Vision One an eight out of ten.

I use Trend Vision One for Total XDR and endpoint protection as an all-in-one security solution.

One of the best decisions we made was choosing Trend Vision One. It has transformed our entire security and cybersecurity landscape, providing a one-stop solution to manage everything efficiently and effectively.

One of the most valuable features is Cyber Risk Exposure Management.

There is room for improvement in leveraging AI technology to protect against emerging AI-based threats.

I have been using the solution for two years.

We previously used an outdated and inefficient Trend Micro system, which caused high security risks.

This is not a competitive price — the costs are on the higher side. However, I don’t regret it, as it can help save significantly in other areas. The only disappointing aspect is that every time new features are adopted, additional credits are required, which could push the budget over. This practice should really be reconsidered by Trend.

I also evaluated CrowdStrike as an alternate solution.

Trend Vision One is a five-star product.

I work with Trellix, Trend Micro, Fortinet, and Netrix for DLP solutions. For Netrix DLP, I use Forcepoint, and for email security, I use Barracuda.

I have been working with Trend Micro for the past six years. I started with Apex One and Worry-Free, which evolved to TrendAI Vision One. TrendAI Vision One is a collaborative XDR platform designed to bring all security solutions such as mail security, cloud security, endpoint security, and identity security together and manage them from a single console. That is the main goal of TrendAI Vision One.

From my end, I have deployed email security, endpoint security, XDR, and web security from TrendAI Vision One. We are using TrendAI Vision One with both business essentials and pro bundle.

TrendAI Vision One has two kinds of solutions for endpoint security: standard endpoint protection for desktop machines and server and workload protection for existing Linux servers, Windows servers, or even containers and workloads in the cloud where you can install agents for those containers as well. These are the deployments which we have done for endpoint security.

The detection part works well for me. The response part, including automatic containment, requires creating playbooks. Even though I create them, I have faced many threat attack scenarios where detection pops up, but the appropriate response action is not being taken.

Attack discovery and attack surface discovery are valuable features. Every organization has endpoints, and no organization will be willing to do a full discovery or testing on all those endpoints or devices. Attack discovery helps us know which endpoints we have with Trend Micro, what vulnerabilities and loopholes are available in the endpoints, and provides insights into our attack surface.

I have used the cyber risk exposure management product completely except for security awareness. I have used data security posture, identity security posture, and network security functionalities. I have not ensured cloud security yet, but we are yet to have hands-on experience with that. I have showcased these functionalities to customers and conducted many POCs for new clients covering cyber risk exposure management, XDR, email security, endpoint security, and network security. I have explained how well TrendAI Vision One captures the correct data.

The response time after detection is approximately three hours.

Visibility is good, but TrendAI Vision One can improve the response part. Compared to other vendors like SentinelOne or CrowdStrike, all of them are providing detection and response methodology. However, TrendAI Vision One provides more visibility but has limitations on the response part.

If TrendAI Vision One can improve the response time and playbooks, particularly with more customizable playbooks, it would be greatly helpful. We have raised feature requests to Trend Micro. If they have more predefined playbooks and more options for response management, it would be beneficial because that is what end users are expecting.

As a reseller, we are dealing with the pain because customers are asking why response is not being taken even though TrendAI Vision One detects suspicious files. In some cases, I follow best practices by updating playbooks at regular intervals, but that is a manual process. An automated process to take appropriate action for suspicious and malicious files would be necessary. The response part might be improved to provide better value.

I have been working with Trend Micro for the past six years.

TrendAI Vision One is stable. Before TrendAI Vision One, Trend Micro had Apex One and Worry-Free products for endpoint security that were not stable. However, after TrendAI Vision One was introduced, I do not see any stability issues.

Scalability is good. Previously, it was good because they were using a credit system where they would give credits and based on the credits we could allocate our own licenses. Right now they have removed this feature, so we are yet to do some testing on that. The credit system was effective because we had flexible licensing and scalability, and we were able to use the resources when and if it was necessary.

Two factors are important: the time to give the first response and the technical ability of the engineers. I heard that they have laid off many old employees and senior employees.

The integration part is good. They also have an AI platform built into the console which provides more details in layman's terms. When explaining an attack to management, you can communicate it to a CIO in technical terms because they are from a technical background and will understand all the details. However, when taking this to a CEO or CFO who are not technical persons with backgrounds based on industry, you should explain it in simple terms. The AI integration with TrendAI Vision One gives the details in a much simpler way in layman's understanding. That feature is good.

Neutral

The installation is easy. Even for Linux and Mac machines, it is just two or three commands.

ROI is absolutely achievable, especially with TrendAI Vision One and server TrendAI Vision One platform. Previously, they had MSVA, which was a virtual appliance that on-premises clients needed for mail security. After they came up with the cloud email security solution, many customers are feeling relief, and the latency is much better when compared to an on-premise solution.

For ROI in email security, they provide BEC, which is the best ROI for every customer. If there is an outage that occurs in Microsoft or AWS or any other cloud platform, there is an email continuity platform for emails. That is good ROI.

From a deployment perspective, it shows around fifty to sixty percent. The impact given to the business in terms of real impact is up to ten to twenty percent.

This is quite affordable. It is not that expensive.

We buy from Trend Micro. TrendAI Vision One definitely falls in the leader quadrant in Gartner, and its capabilities are good. It can be in that leader quadrant. For an endpoint security solution, managing attacks is the key thing. It is not about daily activities like what policies and functionalities are provided. These matter, but at the end of the day, if an attack is going to happen, the end user will assess the support of TrendAI Vision One and the response part of TrendAI Vision One. These two parameters are going to be assessed, and based on these two parameters, any quadrant achievement from labs like Gartner or Forrester will be based on these two parameters only.

For standard endpoint protection, if it is a detection, it is a detection. When compared to CrowdStrike, TrendAI Vision One creates much less false positives. There is no big noise on this, but that is one way to consider it. False positives do come, and it is completely based on the configuration which we do. On the initial phase of the deployment, after a month or two, we keep it in detection mode, and after that, we pursue the prevention mode so that blocking is enabled.

If the containment functionality gets automated, it would be on a better note. The response part, if improved, will be very helpful. From a deployment perspective, it shows around fifty to sixty percent.

TrendAI Vision One is fully on the cloud with no on-premise option. They tie up with multiple cloud vendors, but they provide a SaaS platform built by Trend Micro. Trend Micro itself is hosted on some AWS servers, which is what I have heard, but I do not want to comment on that.

I would rate this review an eight.

TrendAI Vision One is our centralized platform for managing multiple security products, specifically on endpoint and workload security.

We have integrated TrendAI Vision One with Microsoft and AWS cloud accounts that we use. Our SOC team monitors TrendAI Vision One and the platform provides them with multiple views of data sets and detections that have occurred, helping them to quickly onboard with all the relevant data they should be aware of.

We are using TrendAI Vision One sensors across endpoint and workload security.

We were facing multiple cybersecurity incidents in our endpoint and workload security, including attacks such as ransomware and malware. TrendAI Vision One solves these problems by providing greater detection capabilities and automated response across all of these layers.

TrendAI Vision One helps with integration and correlation of multiple security solutions and provides us with better dashboard and reporting capabilities to showcase the data to our board.

We are seeing fewer threats and events across these security layers since we invested in TrendAI Vision One. The platform has been particularly useful in protecting against ransomware.

We are able to respond faster and quicker compared to earlier because of the automated response that TrendAI Vision One offers, which reduces our dependency on manual effort that was previously required.

TrendAI Vision One could bring in more data loss prevention capabilities specifically on the endpoints, as the current offering lacks some important capabilities.

They could also bring in data loss prevention capability and integrate with patch management solutions, which is overdue.

We have been using TrendAI Vision One for the past three and a half years.

It is extremely important to protect sensitive and critical data that resides on servers.

I would say TrendAI Vision One is a really good platform overall, and we found it fitting into our budget compared to competitive solutions. I would rate this product highly.

As a cybersecurity analyst at a managed security service provider, I use Trend Vision One for two of my clients. My primary use cases involve standard XDR functions, such as anomaly monitoring, alert analysis, and incident response. To streamline these processes, I've configured automated response playbooks within Trend Vision One. The insights provided by the platform, mainly through the Workbench and Observe Auto module, are invaluable for understanding my clients' environments and identifying vulnerabilities that need to be addressed.

I work with clients across various industries, including education and power. My education client utilizes Trend Vision One for specific security needs, while my power industry client, an electricity board, has a comprehensive Trend Micro solution in place, including Vision One, Apex One, and Deep Security Manager. With Vision One, I've successfully detected and addressed numerous web attacks, malware attacks, and unauthorized access attempts on production servers in the education sector. For the power client, the solution has effectively detected and blocked multiple ransomware attacks. These are common occurrences and demonstrate the value of Trend Micro's security solutions.

We use Trend Vision One on all endpoints in two scenarios. For one client with on-premises servers and endpoints, we use Trend Vision One as a comprehensive solution. For another client in the education sector, we use Trend Micro Deep Security Management alongside the Vision One XDR platform on their cloud-based Linux servers.

Trend Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across all protection layers. This is crucial for efficiently sharing data with management, both internally and client-side. The platform avoids technical jargon, offering executive summary dashboards and summarized incident reports that clearly communicate security status. This allows for concise and effective communication with non-technical stakeholders, assuring them of their security posture. Trend Vision One's automated dashboards streamline reporting, eliminating the need for extensive manual documentation, which is especially valuable for technical users.

I use executive dashboards to build on threat detection, check for vulnerabilities, and create appropriate responses for individuals or groups of endpoints.

We use the risk index to assess and enroll our risk score. We maintain a low-risk index, which helps both management and me understand our score in relation to global risk factors.

Although I inherited Vision One as a service provider from another team, I eventually began utilizing its full potential and reaping its benefits.

Trend Vision One offers a phishing simulation feature in its cyber risk assessment. I frequently use this tool with my clients to evaluate employee email awareness. It generates comprehensive reports and provides functionalities for easy management.

Attack surface risk management helps identify vulnerabilities and high-risk threats in an environment, but it may also generate some false positives.

Trend Vision One significantly reduces MTTD and MTTR by approximately 50 percent. Its automated playbooks enable an immediate response to detected threats, providing near-instantaneous protection. While manual analysis and reporting of critical errors typically take an analyst up to 15 minutes, Trend Vision One's configured playbooks can automatically complete the same task within two minutes.

I have configured some playbooks to take automated actions on Trend Vision One while detecting some specific alerts or while detecting some specific playbook alerts.

Trend Vision One offers several features that I appreciate. The workbench alerts provide valuable insights into attack chains and relevant information, while Observer techniques give a comprehensive overview of ongoing activities. The platform's automated playbooks streamline incident response, significantly reducing MTTD and MTTR. Additionally, the ability to integrate with various firewalls and data sources, including Trend Micro's suspicious object management, centralizes threat management and simplifies daily security operations and incident response tasks.

Trend Vision One requires several enhancements for optimal performance. The platform should allow users to create custom phishing templates directly within the console and improve logging capabilities to facilitate seamless integration with SIEM solutions. Additionally, it should provide a mechanism for configuring Office 365 Advanced Threat Protection alerts to be displayed within the Workbench for streamlined threat management.

I have been using Trend Vision One for about a year and a half.

Trend Vision One is a stable platform with no significant issues like lagging or crashing.

Trend Vision One is easy to scale up by adding new agents, although the credit system for feature usage is confusing and could be simplified.

I have experience with solutions like Sophos Central XDR and Wazuh, and while they have their strengths, I find Trend Vision One to be a competitive option with a comprehensive range of capabilities.

I would rate Trend Vision One nine out of ten.

The on-premises Trend Micro solutions may require updates.

After deploying Trend Vision One on pilot devices, I recommend exploring the entire portal to familiarize yourself with its features and capabilities.

We use Trend Vision One for the XDR and we absolutely love it, especially the full visibility into protected assets. It's incredibly easy to identify weaknesses across systems and manage any outdated software or areas needing attention directly within the user interface. Previously, we juggled multiple dashboards, but the new version has streamlined everything into a single, unified dashboard. This has significantly simplified our workflow and improved manageability. In essence, we can now manage multiple products seamlessly within the same Vision dashboard, which is a considerable improvement over the previous system. This year has brought significant and positive changes to our workflow.

We use XDR across Office 365 in the cloud and on-premises environments to safeguard our assets. This includes protecting our server environment, workstations, and Virtual Desktop Infrastructure, ensuring comprehensive endpoint security.

Our deployment utilizes a hybrid model, making agent deployment incredibly simple. We employ several different deployment methods: on-premise deployment through Active Directory and utilizing various tools. In case a system leaves the network for any reason, we have third-party solutions in place. We have multiple RMM solutions that can be rapidly deployed in these packages. For example, I've recently observed systems being spun up and sent home before antivirus protection was activated. We still have the opportunity to deploy these solutions in the cloud automatically. So, we have a few ways to work around this and deploy those agents, making it easy to deploy either on-premise or in the cloud. We can address several scenarios and push out to those endpoints.

Coverage is extremely important. We want to ensure visibility into all assets across the network, whether it's a workstation within the office or someone working remotely. This visibility is crucial even when they're outside the network or using cloud-based software, especially since we have no on-premise infrastructure. With the rise of remote work, having this extra visibility into devices, whether at home or abroad, is invaluable. We appreciate the ability to see what's happening on any asset, regardless of its location. This allows us to monitor running processes, identify vulnerabilities, and push necessary updates, ensuring we maintain connectivity and security no matter where devices are operating.

Trend Vision One offers us comprehensive visibility within a single dashboard, which is crucial since we manage numerous other products and security solutions with various dashboards. The simplicity and centralized visibility provided by Trend Vision One significantly streamline our operations. Managing a multitude of security products across our environment necessitates consolidated visibility to minimize back-and-forth navigation. Having all the necessary information in one place is essential for us.

We use executive dashboards to generate weekly or monthly reports that provide a risk score index. This index helps us identify areas needing attention and understand the teams' focus. We then share this information with IT senior management. In addition to our reporting, we receive a monthly report that allows us to compare our current status to the previous month's and highlight new challenges, team weaknesses, and ongoing efforts. This comprehensive view enables the executive team to monitor the team's continuous progress.

We utilize the risk index feature to monitor and mitigate potential environmental risks. One example of this is how we proactively worked to reduce the risk index score of a recently acquired company. Their antivirus product was expiring, so we opted to purchase additional licenses for our existing Trend Apex One product suite instead of renewing it. However, this integration significantly increased the risk index score due to numerous previously unmanaged devices on their network. To address this, we systematically worked through the risk index list, identifying outdated software and determining if it was still in use or could be safely removed. By leveraging the risk index in this way, we successfully lowered the score and ensured the secure integration of the newly acquired company into our environment.

It took some time to fine-tune Trend Vision One before realizing its benefits. A significant concern was integrating it into our virtual environment, a complex process. However, we gained significant visibility once set up in our VDI, leading to further adjustments. We fine-tuned the environment, removing unnecessary elements, which is especially crucial for our non-persistent VDI, where VMs reset if anything goes down. Through these tweaks, performance improved, and the extra visibility provided by Vision One highlighted areas needing attention, allowing us to optimize the environment gradually.

We use Trend Vision One within Azure, expanding its monitoring capabilities to both on-premises and cloud assets, including Active Directory, which is synchronized from our on-premises environment. This hybrid setup covers assets locally and in the cloud, including Office 365, and Trend Vision One effectively manages security across this environment. It has simplified the process, particularly for virtual environments, providing enhanced visibility and flexibility compared to previous products. The additional visibility has been invaluable, enabling us to address previously undetected vulnerabilities and mitigate risks.

During XDR and managed services pen testing exercises, we identified some weaknesses. They were able to automatically crack some accounts. As soon as one system was breached, the managed services team contacted us, escalating until they got a response. We could see their process in action - their steps and what they did in the backend. We provided them with details about the events and the ongoing pen test. It was an excellent test to see that the managed services worked as intended. There was a breach; they asked if we were aware and stated they would isolate the device if we weren't. We acknowledged we knew about the ongoing pen test. Throughout these exercises, they reached out immediately, demonstrating their focus on alerts, their process for triaging them, and their communication with clients.

The attack surface is directly related to exposure and risk. Any identified vulnerabilities, such as outdated software like older versions of Office or Google Chrome products, are flagged immediately. We use third-party solutions to address these issues across all workstations. Whenever we detect internal or internet-facing exposure, we prioritize remediation based on criticality. External-facing vulnerabilities are patched first, as they pose a greater risk than those affecting only internal assets. We rely heavily on exposure risk and risk index to determine priority and ensure the most critical vulnerabilities are addressed first. This helps us identify blind spots in our environment. Take the new acquisition as an example; many devices were unprotected and lacked crucial Windows updates. Numerous products and workstations required immediate attention. Security wasn't the initial priority, so we addressed that and ensured it became one. We implemented numerous changes with acquisitions to align them with our security standards.

Trend Vision One has significantly reduced our mean time to detect and respond to threats by 60 percent. It centralizes all information, enabling us to identify and address vulnerabilities quickly. For example, if we discover multiple devices running an outdated version of Office 2013 missing patches, we can easily compile a list of those devices and share it with the responsible team for remediation. This visibility allows us to proactively address weaknesses across the network, such as deploying updates or the latest release of third-party software to mitigate risks. Trend Vision One has been instrumental in enhancing our overall security posture.

The managed services significantly reduced the time we spent investigating false positive alerts. In uncertain scenarios, we consult the managed services team. If unsure about anything, we use the AI companion for questions. If we encounter an unfamiliar flag or event, we research it independently and involve the managed services team's professionals for deeper investigation.

We have implemented some automation but haven't fully explored its capabilities. We have a few playbooks for tasks like blocking user access based on IP addresses or email content. Since we use Office 365 in the cloud, there's also a lot of automation for handling incoming emails, such as blocking and sending alerts. While we've used playbooks to a limited extent, there's potential for further automation, and we plan to explore this further.

The most significant recent change has been the addition of the new AI companion. This feature has proven invaluable, especially when integrating with third-party products or resetting the dashboard, as it provides detailed step-by-step guidance. In fact, we were able to resolve all issues independently, without needing to contact support, thanks to the AI companion's comprehensive answers.

The only downside to Trend Vision One is its complexity. It's a comprehensive product covering a lot of ground, which can be a little intimidating initially. The user interface, in particular, can take some time to get used to, with menus that could be better organized and a dashboard that could be more user-friendly. Due to the sheer complexity of the product, navigating and familiarizing oneself with the environment requires some effort. While the initial learning curve might be steep, the product's vast capabilities justify the time investment.

I have been using Trend Vision One for two and a half years.

I would rate the stability of Trend Vision One nine out of ten. I haven't experienced any crashes or issues in the last few years since we started using the product. While there are occasional upgrades and minor changes that require adjustments, the overall stability is excellent. We have no complaints, especially considering the VDI environment, our primary focus, has been running seamlessly. The lightweight agent minimizes resource usage, further contributing to smooth performance.

I would rate the scalability of Trend Vision One nine out of ten. We successfully scaled it up by adding approximately 250 workstations and deployed the product within a week. We replaced their previous product, scripted everything, integrated it into their on-premise servers, and deployed the agents. The 250 additional assets were integrated within two or three days, providing complete visibility in the dashboard. The team then took over and identified any weaknesses. In summary, scaling up and adding 250 workstations was easy to implement.

The technical support and service are excellent. After our new acquisition, we encountered a few issues that we hadn't seen in our environment compared to theirs. Through troubleshooting, we determined that the problems weren't caused by the product itself but rather by corruption in specific systems. We systematically worked through the other products, disabling them one by one. The troubleshooting experience was excellent, and we reached a resolution within a couple of days of contacting support. They were very professional and provided direct answers, resulting in the issues being resolved correctly and in a timely manner.

Positive

In the past, we have used a few different products, including Sophos and Cylance, which we have used for the past couple of years. We also used Trend's older products, like OfficeScan, about eight or nine years ago. We eventually moved away from those products due to their lack of AI capabilities. After trying other products, we returned to Trend with Apex One and Vision One. We've been happy with the product, and its virtual environment capabilities were a major factor for us. Trend has consistently been the best performing product for us, so we decided to continue using their products with Trend Vision One.

The initial deployment was straightforward. We leveraged our existing products to force and uninstall the previous product, opting for a custom scripting approach rather than standard GPOs or internal solutions. This allowed us to uninstall the old package and ensure the new installation was reflected in the dashboard, streamlining the process and enabling us to proceed seamlessly to the next phase. Overall, the deployment was straightforward from our perspective.

We deployed Trend Vision One during COVID, which took approximately one and a half weeks because the server side required additional fine-tuning for all the exclusions.

We implemented the solution in-house. We repeatedly reached out to obtain basic information and guidelines on the VDI component and the virtual environment, specifically regarding steps for managing the virtual environment when closing a gold image and imaging numerous workstations with a single image. Due to the complexities involved, we requested documentation. However, our internal team completed the entire deployment with limited support from their support team, following the provided instructions.

The pricing is fair compared to other solutions. It's within the price range we're looking at for a single endpoint, and fair pricing is important to us.

I would rate Trend Vision One nine out of ten.

The Trend Vision team handles all maintenance on the SaaS backend. Internally, we only need to update the VDI environment occasionally because it's a non-persistent VDI, meaning it's locked down and reverts to its previous state upon reboot. We periodically open the gold images to perform maintenance, update signatures, and force program upgrades, but this is only a monthly task. So, we spend minimal time managing the solution.

Before implementing Trend Vision One, ensure you gather comprehensive documentation. Adhering to the guidelines will streamline setup, and any queries can be resolved using the efficient AI companion. Users can pose questions or access documentation directly from the Trend website. Initially, focus on familiarizing yourself with the dashboard, risk indexing, and the executive dashboard. Explore the product, ask questions, and continue experimenting and seeking assistance once deployed. The process is straightforward once you've had the opportunity to explore the system thoroughly. The primary challenge is becoming comfortable with the interface and navigating its features effectively.
