Harel Cohen - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers excellent endpoint protection and great stability
Technically speaking, the customer support is okay, but the responsiveness needs to be improved. I'm referring to the universal support, as the Israeli staff are excellent and always willing to help. However, opening a case and entering into a back-and-forth with emails takes too much time. It should be working more quickly and smoothly.
John Trembly - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides a single dashboard, integrates well, and has predictive machine learning
Microsoft's new Azure Code Signing is causing a lot of issues for us with One Endpoint Security. We currently have two systems in operation, on-prem and SaaS, and many of the agents won't upgrade beyond version B11564 because these newer versions require Azure Code Signing compliance on the endpoint. If we are not up to date with our Windows updates, we don't have this compliance. Irrespective of the Windows version we are running, we have to apply patches to the machines, if the OS is not damaged, to make them compliant. After that, we can upgrade to the latest version of the respective agent. This process also applies to both Deep Security and Workload Security. I have two production servers: one for Windows and another for Mac. These servers are available in both on-premise and SaaS versions. Additionally, I have a test server that is located on-premises. The significant distinction with the SaaS version is the absence of a test server where I can install a new version. This means I can't allow the agents on it to upgrade and then perform testing. In contrast, with the production SaaS version of One Endpoint Security, I have numerous agents transitioning and coming online. It's essential that these agents upgrade to a newer version. Among these agents, there are five or six different versions, not counting the really old ones that have yet to upgrade due to ACS non-compliance. I can't leave the testing phase for an extended period because I still have outdated agents that need to be updated. These agents can't be left hanging while I wait to test the newest version that has just been released. New versions seem to come out every couple of months in the SaaS environment. In the past, when I solely used the on-premises version, I would review security bulletins for the SaaS version to identify any issues. I'm apprehensive about potential future situations involving this, primarily because the majority of our agents now operate on the cloud version. If a problem is discovered, rolling back on those agents would be challenging. It would require careful operation to revert them to a different version. The on-premises version of One Endpoint Security has an update function that allows us to manually update a bunch of servers. For example, if I just turned on a policy, I can force the agents to quickly download the policy and start following the update procedure or update settings. However, this function is not available in the SaaS version. This is because the system cannot communicate with the agent through the firewall. The SaaS version has an automatic update function and an update source entry in the update agents sub-menu, but it does not have a way to force agents to update. This is a problem because we cannot automatically update the agents. We have to manually log in to the machines and give them an update command. Currently, we have no choice but to wait until the agents find the updates themselves.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Deep Security provides us with a lot of reassurance about security threats. You don't have to worry about a patch not being there in the software. You're confident that all the patches and vulnerabilities are taken care of."
"It helps with virtual patching and IDS fetching."
"It's easy to use and the interface is simple."
"It provides the type of data and availability that we need to have. We don't have to worry about intrusions."
"It integrates well with the cloud; for example, AWS, and Google Cloud Provider."
"The tool provides information on server activities and hosts."
"The most valuable features of the solution we have enabled in our organization are its anti-malware capabilities, applications, web reputation, and integrity monitoring."
"The solution's features, including real-time monitoring, IPS activity, and firewall alerts, are found to be the most effective in our company"
"It is very precise and allows more permission for different use cases."
"The most valuable aspect is achieving zero attacks and zero data compromise."
"Trend Micro Apex One is good at detecting zero-day threats. When the solution was in operation I did not notice any system performance problems. Upgrades of the solution were simple to do and there are plenty of features."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security is the virtual patching it provides."
"The number of accessories included is the most valuable feature."
"The solution is powerful, simple to use, and very flexible. Having the solution in the cloud allows us to do remote work from anywhere."
"Along with the anti-malware, it has a built-in device control and DLP."
"The monitoring is very good."
 

Cons

"A minor issue in Trend Micro Deep Security is that once the tool is upgraded, it shows some machines as offline or not reported while showing a recent update as outdated. The tool has some server connection issues."
"The client can show as offline sometimes, and that becomes a bit difficult for troubleshooting. We end up basically redeploying the client. This is something that could be improved in the future."
"We'd like to see extended capacity in the on-premises versions."
"The default reports provided don't provide much insight."
"Trend Micro Deep Security security and scalability could be improved."
"The updates for legacy systems are not rolled out frequently."
"Deep Security's reporting functionality could be improved."
"Another issue is if I want to suggest this solution to a customer, we won't get the pricing immediately, which is a major problem."
"The integration capabilities could be a bit better."
"Trend Micro Apex One could improve by providing signatureless detection, reducing the agent's needed system resources to increase performance, and enhance further the vulnerability assessment feature. These changes would be very helpful in the future."
"It should have a single agent as competitors are offering."
"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."
"We cover many things, but there is something called ATP, advanced threat prevention. I think they need to invest in this technology."
"It would be great it can support endpoint encryption."
"We have had some false positives with One Endpoint Security's ransomware detection. We received an alert, but it wasn't a ransomware attack. When we did an investigation, we found it was only malware."
"The solution could use extra dashboards and offer more analytics."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Most of it is annual at this stage."
"The tool's pricing is high."
"Purchasing this solution through the AWS Marketplace was secure and quick. AWS has good prices for a good product."
"If you need an additional 10 or 20 licenses, you will need to pay additional fees."
"Trend Micro Deep Security is average compared to other products on the market; it's neither particularly expensive nor cheap."
"On an AWS defined scope, it will cheaper than buying the on-premise service. We did a trial for the on-premise version, but we decided to go with the AWS version. We are downsizing our server room, and it didn't make sense to put more machines in there."
"It is expensive but reasonable compared to other products by Trend Micro."
"It is a very expensive solution. It would be nice if they lower its price. Its license is based on the machines."
"Its pricing was good. It is very competitive with all the other vendors."
"There are licenses for Apex One's individual security features, so it depends on what the customer needs. But in general, Trend Micro is cheap, and many customers require it."
"The SaaS version is competitively priced and amazingly easy to set up."
"Opting for cloud solutions can provide a more cost-effective and efficient alternative, with fewer dependencies on physical setups and unexpected costs associated with on-premises tasks."
"It's well priced at a yearly rate. The price itself depends on whether the solution is full suite, half suite, or some other engine. It's different according to the consumer's requests."
"It is a little bit more expensive than other solutions."
"If I remember correctly, the cost is approximately four and a half thousand per year."
"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."
