Amey Darekar - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers centralized security management and flexibility
The improvements required in the product depend on how it is used, meaning it can be used for endpoint security or email and collaboration security. The web gateway is used along with anti-malware, advanced protection, URL filtering, application control, and data protection. I don't have any improvements to suggest in the tool as of now, and not at least for now, as per my security assessment. There are certain concerns with the product's stability, so it is an area where improvements are required.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The update process and policy control are good."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"What I like the most is the customer pricing because it's a great value."
"One of the most valuable features of Trend Micro Smart Protection is the integration with other solutions."
"The most valuable features of the solution are ransomware protection, device control, and DLP."
"As a Japanese company, it doesn't have any restrictions on usage in our country."
"The most valuable features are the behavior monitoring, behavior analysis, and web reputation service."
"We haven't had any compatibility issues. It's quite stable and it's a good tool in preventing actual viruses or malware."
"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."
"The most useful feature is endpoint security."
 

Cons

"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"In the next version, they should improve the areas of utility and centralized control."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"No online encryption or cloud services are available for the tool, so my company has to install it mostly in an on-premises environment. Encryption or cloud services need to be made available in the product."
"I cannot recall noticing any missing features."
"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."
"The threat response could be a bit better."
"It is onsite. It does have its challenges in terms of scalability."
"The administration could be better. They could decrease the administrative burden and enable easier management. There are many features, options, and settings which is quite challenging for some of our customers. The complexity of the interface is also an issue. From a software point of view, I would prefer to see actual signatures and actual protection patterns, rather than new features."
"We were considering switching to SentinalOne because it has pre-detection, and Trend Micro does not offer this; it's something the solution should add."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is 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."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The license isn't expensive."
"In terms of licensing cost, it falls within the average range compared to competitors, almost 7 out of 10."
"Our organization has paid licensing for three years, which averaged about $4.00 USD per user. We've been satisfied with the licensing. It's quite reasonable."
"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."
"The price of Trend Micro Smart Protection is reasonable."
"The pricing is good compared to Symantec and McAfee."
"Its price is fine. Price-wise, it is competitive with any other vendor."
"The solution is a little expensive. However, they can reduce the price for competition. There are different licensing models."
"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."
