Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Realtime intelligent end-to-end detection and protection from malware in a highly versatile product
From a technical perspective, I think ServerProtect is one of the best security products on the market. It is a mature product that already has most features that any product of this type has. What can be improved is that the cost is very high. So I feel that the cost should be reduced, even if it is justified. One thing that I would like to see as an additional feature is just a custom sandbox within the solution itself. So instead of having to go and use an additional sandbox for testing, you could have a custom sandbox integrated directly into the solution.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It handles situations that the other threat management tools wouldn't find. It has worked well covering the weaker sides of the other products that we're integrating."
"​Centralized dashboard online which can be used for managing a huge product."
"The CylancePROTECT agent is very low on CPU usage, so it has virtually no adverse impact on my servers, desktops, or workstations."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"What I like best about CylancePROTECT is its accuracy, as it doesn't give many false positives."
"Does malware analysis. Blocks WannaCry and other attacks that have come out."
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"You can manage all the threats and everything from a centralized dashboard."
"The initial setup is very straightforward."
"Scalable security solution with virtualization and virtual patching functions, able to provide full security that's specific to the service, e.g. it handles virtual machines better."
"Performance is very good."
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and antivirus capabilities."
"The most valuable feature is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)."
"Allows us to protect OneDrive and SharePoint, and emails too."
"Technical support was perfect."
"It helps us quickly address potential issues and provides us with valuable insights."
 

Cons

"The initial deployment was quite complicated."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions. This is the industrial environment where you have a control center for all the automation that's happening, whether it is oil, gas, or chemical manufacturing. They often have to set up a computer at the back and watch the other stuff to get alerts. In these autonomous or on-premises environments, they often don't have access to email readily. Integration with other industrial solutions, such as HMIS, will allow them to communicate and get an alert that something has been found. This way, they can react to it sooner than having somebody watch the screen and keep checking the screen. Rockwell has its own suite. Similarly, Honeywell has its own suite. There's also an independent HMI/historian solution provider out there called VTSCADA. We actually get asked if we can get it to show up on a screen, which is difficult. Getting those alerts to work within an industrial environment would be a huge plus."
"The security scripting needs improvement. It needs deeper security for scripting."
"It should have better support for Windows and Mac."
"The user interface is outdated."
"Reporting is an area with shortcomings in CylancePROTECT that needs to be improved."
"The AI of CylancePROTECT has room for improvement. I'm on a trial license of SentinelOne, and its AI is much better than what's on CylancePROTECT."
"Integration with different platforms could be an area for improvement in Trend Micro ServerProtect, e.g. it needs more integration. It could also be more secure and more stable. In the next release, this solution should also include more EDR visibility."
"We found that when we push Trend Micro from the console to our client's PCs, we need to manually restart the PC. I have 500 users and the manual input is time-consuming."
"Could include additional features such as an intrusion prevention system."
"The cost is very high and it should be lower to be more competitive."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
"Trend Micro is a little bit complicated when it comes to setting up special policies."
"The endpoint protection could always be stronger."
"The solution should provide features to block devices, specific IPs or URLs"
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"CylancePROTECT is worth the money, but I'm not sure of its exact price. I can't remember off the top of my head."
"CylancePROTECT's pricing is reasonable, at about €18 per user, per year."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"The solution provides me with competitive pricing."
"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"Do not get hung up on price. You pay for what you get and expensive will hurt one time, where cheap will hurt forever, especially if you fall victim to a ransom attack, etc.​"
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"The initial end-point cost may seem a little high (~$55/device/year) but when you look at the total peace of mind that the solution provides, with no reboots for updates, and negligible performance impact, it is well worth it."
"This product has an annual subscription, but also offers MSP options."
"Pricing is based on the components you choose from the suite to run in your installation. Costs vary by the number of features and the number of servers."
"In terms of price, the solution is in the middle; it's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. I rate it three out of five for cost."
"Pricewise, this product is okay."
"The product is available at a reasonable price"
