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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It performs quite well as a firewall protection provider."
"It is very efficient. I like its simplicity."
"The solution is secure."
"It helps to improve our security for our mobile and VMware infrastructure. The remote tasks are great."
"Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business is a very good and reliable product."
"The setup and implementation are easy."
"It allows for a solid form of risk management as well as a measure of remote device management."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its deployment. It is easy to centrally deploy. You can deploy it on the Administration Console then deploy it to the different endpoint machines without specifically deploying it manually on each machine. Its deployment is really user friendly."
"Encryption is the basic feature, and that is what I like about it. I also like that it is kind of easy to install and easy to configure."
"Trend Micro provides good overall protection. It has saved us from a few attacks and malware."
"It's a secure and quick solution."
"We use the solution for data encryption."
"The disk encryption is great."
"Very good interface."
"We're very satisfied with Trend Micro support."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the antivirus part it offers."
 

Cons

"The stability could be better."
"We are having some troubles because some American companies we work with don't want to work with Kaspersky."
"It's very heavy and it affects the computer's performance."
"There are some features built into Kaspersky that do not work at all, so we have to use other products instead."
"Utilizing the CPU usages during the scan process needs to be improved."
"There are times when Microsoft Windows's antivirus called Defender interferes with the functionality of Kaspersky Endpoint Security for Business. There should be better integration with Windows."
"I find it to be slow on my end and would like to see that improve. I think the e-learning portal can be updated because it's been disabled due to an upgrade. The data could be updated as well. I also think that pricing could be improved."
"The solution could use better reporting."
"We had to use an integrator for the implementation of Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption. We have two people who work on this solution."
"In terms of what must be improved, I would say the support, the next feature, and the road map. I think all these must be improved, but the important thing to improve is the support."
"Should have more features of Deep Scanning"
"The user interface is a little challenging, especially for beginners. It's hard for new users to understand how to configure the correct access for each company function."
"To improve Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption, the user interface could be somewhat more friendly. It is already friendly, but it can not be approached through to the exact issue and just to give you the full detail of each and every port graphically."
"It would be great if this solution had support for file integrity monitoring."
"We would like to see a wider, better dashboard for the purposes of monitoring the users of the Trend Micro software."
"I would like to improve the solution's support."

"I think the price of this solution is good."
