Enhanced security with seamless failover and a well-rounded solution
We are located in a high-risk area for cyberattacks, and this solution helps protect our data. It is actively used to monitor the user activities and generates report on the basis of there activities. 24/7 protection against email threats and real time blocking allowing our users to working worry free.
Rick Cassel - PeerSpot reviewer
Lightweight and not hard to set up however, does not offer good reporting
We've had a couple of events both this year and last year where it just didn't seem to catch ransomware, which is impossible to do if someone has hands-on with the system. There were some things that they had or used to have or don't have that I still haven't figured out called journaling. And it was supposed to be a way to roll back changes that were made. However, they're telling me they don't have that. That's not in the system. It’s my understanding that it doesn’t actually scan any files at all. They just look at their database of files they've scanned previously, and either it matches or doesn't. That might be where the shortcoming is, is that it just can't stay up-to-date fast enough to stop new things that are coming in. It's an after-the-fact anti-virus. It doesn't do anything proactive. The virus has to hit the machine before it detects it. There is one thing that is deplorable with the product that I would change as soon as I found a better one. However, the reports are worthless. You go and look at a scan report and cannot get a log of machines. I can log into a console and see the files were scanned every day at 2:00 AM, and they all passed green or something was detected and removed. However, you have to go to the console. I don't have anything that I can send to my client on reports. What they give you is a bunch of bar graphs with no details. You can't drill down. It'll say two infections. However, it doesn't tell you what machines. You've just really got several different reports, and they're all just a bunch of graphs and wasted paper. There's nothing really substantial. The reports that I can use for client-facing, once a month, to say, "Here, we scanned all these workstations. Here are our results," don’t exist. They've got fake reports. I've screamed about that for years, and they just won't do anything. Therefore, I created my own little up-to-date or not ask fail-type report. I send that to them in place of a report directly from a product.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites has an inbuilt auto scan facility."
"The multi-tenancy feature is beneficial for managing different customers, allowing for efficient handling across various tenants."
"Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suites has an inbuilt auto scan facility. It is very good at detection and response, and it includes a web filtering option."
"Trend Micro effectively detects and blocks NAS devices and identifies potential threats."
"The load balancer feature is excellent."
"The solution's ability to operate without placing a heavy burden on our system resources is particularly commendable."
"The solution offers a comprehensive solution that includes antivirus, malware protection, ransomware protection, web filtering, and device control features. It provides networking capabilities, making it a robust solution for comprehensive security needs."
"We use the solution for endpoint protection, malware detection, and detecting unsafe web access."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"Low performance requirements."
"The main reason we had Webroot is that it was cost-effective for our clients."
"I rate the initial setup phase a ten on a scale of one to ten, where one is difficult, and ten is easy."
"The solution has many features. It is very easy to define and set the policies based on the user groups, it does not take up a lot of resources in operation, and has provided us with a good track record of protection."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
 

Cons

"Trend Micro should improve its Worry-Free Services Suites, particularly the agent for Windows operating systems."
"The log management feature needs to be improved, specifically, the ability to send logs from the console via API."
"The pricing of Trend Micro is a little bit higher compared to Sophos."
"The EDR part of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"The licensing aspect seems costly, and the license cost increases yearly, which is a concern for us."
"Network vulnerability scanning could be improved."
"The solution’s scalability is limited."
"The solution's documentation is not good, and I'm struggling to change global configurations."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"Unified threat management (UTM) integration."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"It would be nice if it had a feature for automatically generating reports on the client end for device status, security status and backup information."
"The console spins up relatively slowly, and some of the configuration items are obscure (e.g., reporting back one time per day is a default setting) and need to be tweaked."
"Since they're dealing with multi-core environments now, the best option would be for them to enhance the product so that the product can automatically do an assessment on the machine."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is available at a very good price point."
"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"We pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution, which is too expensive."
"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"I can't recall the exact pricing, but I believe there is a monthly fee of $20-30 per user."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
"The pricing is high."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"I rate the product's pricing a three on a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap, and ten is expensive. There are no costs in addition to the product's standard licensing fees."
"The solution is very cost-effective."
