With DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities, the solution also offers great technical support
The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities. It is a lightweight solution with good features, allowing for application control. The solution also offers good DLP features, and our company recently upgraded to use its XDR features. The solution's XDR features work smoothly in our company. With the lightweight nature of the solution and its features, my team was required to deploy the solution in our company. Our company also receives good support from Seqrite, which was one of the main reasons we chose the solution since we could get help if we faced any issues with the solution.

Offers strong, all-around cybersecurity but is expensive
Installing Trend Micro Smart Protection is typically easy, but it can be tricky if you have another antivirus that must be removed first. A cloud solution is a better option as it simplifies the process by only requiring an endpoint connection to the console, ensuring safety and ease of deployment. Deploying Trend Micro Smart Protection usually takes just a few minutes. It involves preparing an SQL table, checking the environment for optimal performance, and ensuring no conflicting antivirus solutions exist. Once that is done, deploying it is as simple as running a script. We have a team of eight engineers who maintain the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its simplicity."
"What I like about Trend Micro Smart Protection is that it detects unknown threats that are not visible on other platforms. It catches low-hanging threats, such as certain binary downloads, that aren't flagged by other tools."
"The tool offers centralized security management. The tool's deployment is flexible."
"What I like the most is the customer pricing because it's a great value."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is that it also protects our smartphones. It's one of the reasons we use Trend Micro specifically."
"The solution integrates well with other Trend Micro products."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Smart Protection is automatic scanning."
"The solution is easy to use, flexible, and secure."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"Trend Micro Smart Protection needs to improve its compliance features to cover more domains, such as BCIDSS rules. Enhancements in this area would enable quicker and more comprehensive compliance reporting."
"The solution's device control options are not too beneficial."
"I cannot recall noticing any missing features."
"The solution could be more stable and secure."
"Trend Micro Smart Protection could improve the false positive with some integrations with other solutions and automated reporting. The reports should allow the user to set up some customer trigger alerts instead of the user having to look at the report manually. Additionally, the responses from sender detection and response feature could improve."
"The solution’s technical support is not very good and could be improved."
"I've not explored all of the features up to now. I still need to see all of the features implemented first to be able to see if anything is missing. However, as of right now, it's working very well for us."
"Documentation-wise, they are a disaster. If you want to know something about Trend Micro, you will not find anything useful from Trend Micro themselves. You have to basically dig some blog, or you need to seek some expert to help you understand what they are offering. I have never seen such a good product with such disastrous documentation. Feature-wise, almost all vendors are providing the same features, but it is all about the integration. For example, Trend Micro is promoting their endpoint protection suite, but they never mention about the integration that they are offering with their EDR solution. They are treating each product as a separate island, and you don't know much about their integration. It would be good if they can focus on integration."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The license isn't expensive."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"The licensing is on a yearly basis and I believe our organization paid about $2,000/year. However, it's been a while since I looked at the pricing and we no longer use the solution."
"There is an annual license required for this solution."
"The pricing is good compared to Symantec and McAfee."
"A yearly price has to be paid. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"The cost seems competitive."
"The price of the solution should be less expensive."
"Whether something is affordable or pricy, is relative. It depends on the value an institution has attached to a capability. For us, security is a premium requirement, I can't say a solution is pricey if we are able to afford it and run it for seven years, I would say it's affordable."
"The solution is a little bit expensive in comparison to other traditional tools."
