flexible reporting and analytics boost data-driven security responses
The feature I appreciate the most about Cisco XDR is the flexibility for a user to be able to create their own reporting and dashboards. I would say I got to stop beta testing myself. I am testing what can be customized the most with it. Being able to ingest all the analytics and make it something that's either meaningful to them or to their own leadership is a big plus. It's not just what the product is at launch; you have the ability to customize and make it useful to your business to actually get real, purposeful information out of just a swamp of data. The features of Cisco XDR have actually benefited the organization significantly by allowing us to do the outputs of specific data and even filtered subsets of the data. We can do the same reporting but only deliver in either reports or dashboards the information about the systems that a specific team is responsible for, or the larger teams that multiple departments or IT silos roll up into. We're basically able to just modify the filters and have the same reports in the same dashboards where it's all the same; 99% of the work is the same.

Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment
Trend Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit. We can quickly see where the attack is coming from. Trend Vision One enables us to use different products with a flexible license. For example, if a customer is using endpoint security and wants to switch to another solution, they can instantly use a different Trend Micro product, such as email. Trend Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly. With playbook templates, in cases of recurring attacks, responses can be made quickly using predefined playbooks. Trend Vision One has helped to reduce noise from false positives. There have been false positives before, but it was due to the customer not telling us which app they were using. Best practice configurations must be applied properly to avoid such issues. Trend Vision One helps customers consolidate the use of security vendors and reduce silos by offering one platform for all product management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The features of Cisco XDR benefit my company since time is money. When outages happen and when a customer can't reach the internet, they get agitated. Therefore, the quicker we can mitigate an issue, our customers get happier in a quicker fashion."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Cisco XDR is the reliability."
"Cisco XDR offers threat intelligence and links with the Firewall."
"One of my favorite features of Cisco XDR is the automation tool, which saves a lot of time because we can craft these automations and workflows."
"The feature I appreciate the most about Cisco XDR is the reliability."
"Technical support from Cisco is good and very helpful."
"My advice for other organizations considering Cisco XDR is that it offers proactive security measures that are really very helpful."
"One of my favorite features of Cisco XDR is the automation tool, which saves a lot of time because we can craft these automations and workflows."
"Trend Vision One provides comprehensive insight into user behavior, dark web login monitoring, and open vulnerabilities, allowing us to see everything from a single platform, which simplifies security operations and reduces complexity."
"For our day-to-day use cases, the correlation and attribution of different alerts are valuable. It is sort of an SIEM, but it is intelligent enough to run the queries and intentionally detect and prioritize attacks for you. At the end of the day, it is different data that you see. It correlates data for you and makes it meaningful. You can see that someone got an email and clicked a link. That link downloaded, for example, malware into the memory of the machine. From there, you can see that they started moving laterally to your environment. I quite like it because it gives visibility, so Workbench is what we use every day"
"I like that it is a comprehensive security solution with a lot of features. You can say XDR is an end-to-end security solution with endpoint security. It includes all your servers, networks, and other devices. The endpoint security solution does not cover this. Plus, machine learning and features like that are the main things in XDR solutions."
"What I like the most about Trend Micro XDR is that the detection and response domain extends to the network. It goes beyond the endpoint and includes data about the network which lets you pinpoint patient zero as well as the root cause of the attack."
"Overall, I rate Trend Vision One a ten out of ten as I am extremely happy with Trend Micro's capabilities and their platform's strength."
"Trend Micro XDR is stable, scalable, and reasonably priced."
"I find the maps particularly helpful. The object list, specifically the suspicious object list, is also quite valuable. You can simply add one object to that list to manage it from another solution."
"I'm satisfied with the level of coverage. The policies have been very useful and detailed."
 

Cons

"The licensing of Cisco XDR is a bit complicated. The cost can depend on what it is, and the process can be a little complicated."
"I would say I got to stop beta testing myself."
"When we first started with Cisco XDR in August, everybody was having issues. There were three people in our organization, including me, who couldn't even log in to Cisco XDR."
"They need to provide better pricing and bundle XDR licenses with products like Meraki solutions or Firepower Threat Defense."
"Cisco XDR can be improved by addressing the upfront cost. Everything matters for us since we're small, mom and pop, so every dollar counts."
"Regarding the pricing aspect of Cisco XDR, I think the price is a bit expensive."
"Improvements in Cisco XDR revolve around performance."
"If we have a list of domains we need to block, such as 4,000 domains, I can only block 100 domains at a time because if I put in more than 100 domains, I hit that 2,000 character max and can't continue with an investigation. Being able to put in all 4,000 domains, without a character limit or observable limit, would make doing those case books a whole lot easier and blocking those domains a whole lot easier too."
"Trend Vision One needs to work on its logging system as the logging systems are very complex, and they need to reform their logs in a more informative way."
"The zero trust is a bit complicated compared to other parts of the solution."
"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."
"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."
"Expanding compatibility to include currently unsupported security tools, such as firewalls, would be beneficial."
"Trend Micro's support is suboptimal in my region, likely due to proximity to their resources, favouring areas closer to the company. Consequently, we utilize local support providers who offer better service."
"There are no specific missing features at the moment, though improvement is always possible in making things more intuitive and easier to use."
"The reports lack detail and customization options, particularly for XDR, which hinders our ability to provide tailored reports to clients."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing of Cisco XDR is a bit complicated. The cost can depend on what it is, and the process can be a little complicated."
"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."
"Trend Micro's licensing is outsourced to third-party vendors, resulting in price variations depending on the vendor."
"It is very good. The flexibility to temporarily exceed license limits when setting up new devices is helpful, as it allows us to ensure security before purchasing additional licenses."
"Trend Micro's cost is higher than other solutions. That is the main reason why we need to switch to another solution."
"Trend Vision One is an expensive product."
"It is costly. It is not that affordable for a small organization. Only big organizations can afford it. It is a new feature that has been added, so its price is fair. Its licensing is probably subscription-based. It is for one or two years."
"The price for Trend Vision One is reasonable compared to Microsoft and Symantec."
"Its price is very decent. It suits our requirements."
