Easy to use and competitively priced
Honestly, the product needs to continue the way it is, and I feel that everything will be fine. I haven't had any reasons to complain about the product. The product doesn’t offer MDM functionality under its current licensing model. In the future, I want the product to offer MDM. It can allow me to manage my mobile device more efficiently and effectively. Currently, there is a need for a separate license to be added to Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response to be able to use the MDM part. If both are bundled up under the same license, the administration part can be made easier.

Makes data meaningful and helps to control an attack early on
Reporting could be a little bit better. They are working on it, and it is getting better. They have different development teams working on this product. Like any bigger organization, they have so many people working and fixing the product, and they have their own development routines and cycles and understanding of the code. It has gotten a lot better, but it has a long way to go. Recently, there were a couple of more reports. What I like is that they listen to the feedback. If we tell them that we need this reporting, they go back and do something about it. It does not get lost in emails or meetings.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response are its immediate response and investigation."
"The interface is quite easy to use."
"The most valuable features of this product include network isolation for machines and the ability to work with a consistent and defined set of virtual machines."
"The solution does all that we expect it to do."
"I've mainly found the antivirus and antispyware features valuable. The documentation is okay as well."
"A great feature of this solution is that it is very well-integrated with antivirus software. Other ADR solutions are implemented as single technologies and are not integrated with the provider, but Symantec offers AV plus ADR."
"The security is good."
"The solution has great blocking features."
"I'm satisfied with the level of coverage. The policies have been very useful and detailed."
"When we purchased Vision One, what set it apart was that it wasn't a traditional signature-based antivirus. It's a process-aware solution that provides real-time protection. That was a big differentiator three years ago, but now it's a given that every AV provider should be doing that. It combines signature-based telemetry with behavioral awareness and a detection-based solution, making it a good solution for us."
"Drilling down further, we can analyze how our users are utilizing their workstations, including the websites they visit."
"The Trend hunting feature is beneficial, providing the opportunity to investigate and see what's happening, using frameworks such as MITRE ATT&CK to analyze logs."
"For our day-to-day use cases, the correlation and attribution of different alerts are valuable. It is sort of an SIEM, but it is intelligent enough to run the queries and intentionally detect and prioritize attacks for you. At the end of the day, it is different data that you see. It correlates data for you and makes it meaningful. You can see that someone got an email and clicked a link. That link downloaded, for example, malware into the memory of the machine. From there, you can see that they started moving laterally to your environment. I quite like it because it gives visibility, so Workbench is what we use every day"
"I love everything about the solution, especially the XDR features, the attack surface management, and the workbench alerts. It oversees vulnerabilities among the system and devices, prioritizing areas that need patching."
"I like XDR's workbench feature and observed attack technique. It generates an alert once certain conditions are met. For example, let's say there's a threat called malicious.exe being deployed on your system. It will generate an alert with information like the file path, location, hash, etc. You also see a relational matrix showing how that file was executed and which processes were installed."
"Centralized visibility is valuable. We can view what kind of virus or threat exists, where it has traveled, and how it started. A security analyst can use just this one console to view all the information."
 

Cons

"The product doesn’t offer MDM functionality under its current licensing model."
"They do need to minimize the number of agents installed on a server."
"The Symantec portfolio is not big enough to cover the organization in all 360 degrees."
"The solution can always be more stable and more secure."
"The solution’s scalability and stability could be improved."
"Its UI could be more user-friendly."
"I would like to see better scanning capabilities."
"It would be beneficial to have more integration and compatibility with other platforms."
"We'd like to see more use of AI around analytics and controls."
"I would like to have more integration with mobile device management."
"The support has been delayed at times."
"Trend Vision One would be enhanced by incorporating an SIEM solution as a built-in feature."
"Integration with other tools and deploying in hybrid environments need improvement."
"They are planning on adding the Security Playbooks as a complete feature. In the preview mode, it is available; however, it is not released."
"We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."
"Trend Micro doesn't have the next-generation firewall."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price is reasonable."
"Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response is expensive."
"The product is cheap."
"It's a yearly subscription."
"Of late, because of the Broadcom purchase, its price has been increasing."
"We have a yearly subscription, and the pricing is fair."
"We pay around $100,000 for 5000 licenses every year."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive."
"Competitors offer comparable solutions at slightly lower prices, so Vision One has room to reduce its pricing by 15 percent, given that Trend Vision One charges approximately $10 per endpoint."
"I do not have much visibility to it. It is definitely not a cheap product, but to my knowledge, it is out there with the big wigs in the industry, such as CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and other EDR/XDR vendors. I had heard, and found out eventually, that their sales teams are very flexible, as more sales teams are."
"I find it to be a cost-efficient platform."
"The solution is fairly priced."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro."
"Trend Micro XDR has a good price, and on a scale of one to five, I would rate it a four out of five in terms of price."
"The pricing of the solution is okay. There is a need for me to look into the new pricing plan introduced by the solution recently."
