Easy to setup, stable and good security use cases
I primarily use this solution for security.  I appreciate the good control it offers, which simplifies management. So, I feel confident using this solution. We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system. I have been using Kaspersky for eight years. I use the latest version.  I…

Though it provides good endpoint security, there is a need to improve scalability
I don't have any idea about the implementation part because the tool was configured in my company's infrastructure. When I joined the organization, everything was configured. Currently, I am involved in the endpoint management and control. My company uses the product for the endpoints in our company so that it offers protection against viruses and other malicious activities. My company operates as a service provider, owing to which we deal with multiple clients and their data, which are stored in a PDF format. My company also provides applications to our clients. There are different types of data that my company protects from malicious activities and ransomware attacks. The most beneficial part of the product for our company's security needs stems from the fact that it offers an agentless service, which makes it better to manage our endpoint devices. I am not the right person to speak about how the full disc encryption capability of Trend Micro has impacted our data protection strategies since I am not the right person to provide any information about it. I am a system engineer who manages virtualization tools like VMware. There is a separate team for endpoint management in my organization. Speaking about the user experience and management console of Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption, I would say that the product offers a very unique GUI. The unique GUI of the tool makes it possible to easily use the management console for some tasks, like creating and downloading reports. There is a separate team with six to seven engineers in my company to manage the troubleshooting part of endpoint solutions. I recommend the product to those who plan to use it. The product is easy to use. The product is useful in the area of ePO reporting. It is very easy to create general reports with the product. I rate the overall product a seven out of ten.

"We need a more complete Mobile Device Management (MDM) system."

"They need to come up with cloud solutions."
"There are recovery issues that arise."
"Compared to Bitlocker or McAfee Disk Encryption, it's not quite as robust."
