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.

We can get consolidated logs of suspicious objects and malware attacks in a single console
I like Vision Central. We can manage all the Trend Micro products from one console. Vision One protects against zero-day attacks. It has a feature where it identifies suspicious objects and traffic. We believe it's easy to learn. We perform cross-layer detection, threat hunting, and investigation from a single console. This capability is essential. We have 15-point IPS, DDI, and all these different security products that we can manage from one console. One Endpoint Security gives us end-to-end visibility. We can forward all the logs to the same solution and interact with the SOC team immediately. We get an alert about any suspicious objects or abnormal behavior, enabling us to take immediate action.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Trend Micro is easy to use and it has good security features."
"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."
"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 antivirus signature is valuable."
"The AI is excellent."
"The solution integrates well with other Trend Micro products."
"The most valuable features of the solution are ransomware protection, device control, and DLP."
"Trend Micro Smart Protection has good features like malware analysis, C-to-C connection and detection, workbench, auto security play with features, and lots of DDI features."
"No down time in terms of the backend having to be updated because it's on cloud."
"They have a wide range of products, including a couple for virtual patching, which is very important."
"Stable threat protection software that's quick to install. The security it provides is okay."
"The graphical user interface is simple, making it easy to navigate without the need for additional training or complex documentation."
"The antivirus is the most valuable aspect of Trend Micro Apex One."
"The most valuable features are the vulnerability protection and virtual patching."
"Its database is better than most of the endpoint protection solutions."
"The solution is stable and integrated into the system quite well."
 

Cons

"The solution could be more stable and secure."
"The dashboard or console of Trend Micro Smart Protection should be easier to comprehend"
"Trend Micro Smart Protection is a very system-intensive product, and it would be better if it could be made less burdensome on the resources."
"The only drawback to this solution is that it needs different products for different types of clients, and it would be better to have a single agent for all of the products."
"Enhanced capability to detect and protect against various malicious programs would be beneficial."
"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."
"The only notable concern is the level of support in the particular region of Sri Lanka. Following events in the past two years, the quality of technical support has regrettably declined."
"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."
"All the features in Trend Micro Apex One are not compatible or functional for all the different operating systems. For example, they have fewer features in other operating systems compared to what they have for Microsoft Windows. It would be nice if they could have one solution which all functions work on all kinds of operating systems. It would be much easier for those who have different operating systems in their environment to have one solution."
"It would be ideal if the solution could be simplified a bit."
"While the single console offers partial end-to-end visibility into our IT security environment, we leverage additional solutions to achieve comprehensive coverage, so this area can be improved by Apex One."
"I think that this product needs to improve the data loss prevention port."
"The product can be a bit heavy."
"We're not sure if we're going to continue with those products or their products or we're going to switch to something else. That's why we stopped the immigration process. If we were going to replace another product, it's not really efficient to waste time on it moving patients and other clients."
"More integration with different platforms would be great, as everyone seems to want the solution to integrate with each team."
"Apex One's account security could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The tool's licensing costs are yearly."
"A yearly price has to be paid. I rate the pricing an eight out of ten."
"There is an annual license required for this solution."
"This solution provides good value for the price."
"The solution is a little bit expensive in comparison to other traditional tools."
"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."
"The price of Trend Micro Smart Protection is reasonable."
"Its price is fine. Price-wise, it is competitive with any other vendor."
"It is okay. Compared to Sophos, it is a little bit expensive, but it is a good product and it is better than Sophos, for instance. It is equivalent to Trellix. Its cost depends on the country. I am in Turkey, and Trend Micro is not so affordable in Turkey. SMB companies are looking for cheaper products. In Turkey, enterprise customers tend to use Trend Micro, and if they have more money, then they use next-generation antivirus or EPP products such as SentinelOne, CrowdStrike, or Microsoft E5 package."
"Pricing and licensing are competitive with other solutions on the market."
"Apex One is expensive but we manage to work with the cost."
"The price for Trend Micro is reasonable."
"Trend Micro Apex One's subscription model is definitely on the expensive side."
"Trend Micro has very aggressive pricing, but it is also very good."
"Apex One is a bit expensive, but the additional AWS costs are limited. It's competitive compared to other solutions in the market. It's a good price for the functionality that it provides."
"It's an annual subscription."
