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

"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"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."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The tool will query the information from the cloud to identify suspicious or malicious files that can be a threat. It will provide you with real-time updates on the latest and ongoing attacks and malware information."
"Trend Micro is easy to use and it has good security features."
"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 most valuable features of Trend Micro Smart Protection are the email gateway and R & D which have contributed to their additional capability and development."
"The tool offers centralized security management. The tool's deployment is flexible."
"The sandboxing is more proactive and more reliable than any of the other endpoint protection solutions."
"The most valuable features are the behavior monitoring, behavior analysis, and web reputation service."
"The most valuable features of the solution are ransomware protection, device control, and DLP."
 

Cons

"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"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."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"User management could be improved."
"Trend Micro Smart Protection could improve automatic scanning because sometimes it pops up when I am doing my work. It would be helpful to have a feature to have it only automatically scan when the system is on standby mode. I would be able to be more efficient with my work. Additionally, security could improve."
"Sometimes, the tool bases its actions on behaviour, and we lack a policy learning mechanism. If Trend Micro Smart Protection introduced an AI model, its protection capabilities would be enhanced. I used a different browser once, which may have prevented protection. Another time, our own ISP was added to the blacklist, and it took the support team two business days to resolve it."
"I'm not sure about the cloud migration part, in terms of whether it is seamless or not."
"The pricing of the solution can be improved."
"It could be faster in responding to new threats like ransomware."
"I want the tool to provide the solutions integrated within it to have regular updates. Currently, the solutions integrated with Smart Protection get updates from the cloud. I want to minimize the download from the cloud."
"There are no data loss prevention features."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"The license isn't expensive."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"Its price is fine. Price-wise, it is competitive with any other vendor."
"The solution is a little bit expensive in comparison to other traditional tools."
"In terms of pricing, in comparison to products like Kaspersky, Trend Micro's price might appear higher. However, this elevated cost can be rationalized due to the extensive features and detection engines that Trend Micro provides. The price may be a challenge for countries with economic conditions like Sri Lanka. If there was reasonable pricing for Sri Lanka, it would be a plus point."
"Trend Micro Smart Protection is more costly than competitor solutions"
"If I'm not mistaken, for three years, for 400 licenses, we paid nearly 15,000 euros. We don't have any additional costs that we have to pay on top of that."
"There is an annual license required for this solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"We pay for the solution on a yearly basis. We pay approximately 100 Euros a year per user. There are no additional fees above this."
