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 I can't leave the testing phase for an extended period because I still have outdated agents that need to be updated.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.

Useful portal, secure, but compatibility issues could improve

The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve. If we try and implement third-party vendors with the solution we can experience issues, such as Microsoft Office 365. It will limit certain emails from being received or sent. There can be compatibility issues.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The initial setup is not that tough. It's easy."

"We've found the technical support to be very helpful overall."

"No down time in terms of the backend having to be updated because it's on cloud."

"Stability is okay."

"It's easier to integrate Apex One than Kaspersky. It also performs well, and the customer feedback has been positive."

"The solution is used for XDR (extended detection and response), threat hunting, endpoint protection, and device filtering."

"Trend Micro Apex One most valuable features are centralized management, ease of use, and help user management. Additionally, it can detect vulnerabilities in the end-users system"

"I have found it beneficial when I update a policy it is implemented within a few seconds and the blocking of USB storage function."

More Trend Vision One Endpoint Security pros

"The most valuable features of WithSecure Elements Endpoint Protection are the clear useful portal and overall company protection."

"There is a layer of security to prevent a malicious agent (malware) from interrupting or stopping services, deleting or modifying registry entries or even stopping the antivirus from acting, ensuring that there will be no interruption of protection."

"On the cloud management page, the solution scales up very highly."

"Both incoming and outgoing traffic is protected."

"The notifications and patch management features are valuable."

"F-Secure is useful for keeping user machines up-to-date by pushing out security and critical updates."

"We use the product for detecting network vulnerabilities and for software update purposes."

Cons

"Occasionally, the system may be a bit slow."

"The portal is a little bit slow in loading. The cloud portal or management control should be a little faster. There seems to be a lot of load on their servers over there. Maybe they are using one server for multiple customers. It would be great if they can increase server performance in the cloud. Its technical support and reporting can be improved. There is no proper reporting, and there is no PDF or things like that. They should include detailed reporting. An attack happened at a client's site, but we couldn't get the report on the same day. We were unable to provide a detailed report to our client. We approached the technical support, and even they didn't give proper answers. They need to improve the reporting capabilities, or the technical team should support us in providing these reports. They should include reporting in the solution. They should also insert sandbox analysis in Apex One."

"Some of our customers need to add cache file signatures in Trend Micro Apex One, but it is currently not a supported feature."

"They should include easy-to-use connectors to make it easier to connect to SIEM."

"It needs a consolidated manager as there are too many parts to currently manage it."

"The scans in Trend Micro Apex One take a very long time and it takes up my system resources. I do not receive alerts. These areas could improve."

"This software could affect the performance of your device negatively, particularly causing slow performance after installation."

"It would be ideal if the solution could be simplified a bit."

More Trend Vision One Endpoint Security cons

"There is no technical support available in the Middle East."

"There could be a dedicated security partner with essential knowledge."

"The program and cloud service management is in English. It's not a problem for me, however, it might be for users who don't speak English or use it regularly."

"Resource consumption is suboptimal and could be improved."

"I would like the part of Hash Analysis by external sources to be improved."

"But the biggest one for us is patch management because this has been our top priority when looking at alternatives. Every solution needs to have patch management, if that's possible. It would cut costs on our side if that feature were included, so we don't need to pay for two separate pieces of software."

"The solution could improve by having more real-time responses. For example, when a license gets removed from a computer it does not update the records of the change. Additionally, when I installed Microsoft Windows Defender I was not able to send licenses through email to our tenants. The integration with other solutions could improve."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."

"Its price is competitive."

"The price for Trend Micro is reasonable."

"The cost of this solution is mid-level; not cheap nor expensive."

"The price of the solution is reasonable."

"I think that this product is expensive."

"From a commercial aspect, it is a bit higher compared to other market products."

"Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis."

More Trend Vision One Endpoint Security pricing and cost advice

"The cost of the solution depends on the size of the company and where the licenses are being ordered from."

"If you purchase licenses in bulk the price of the licenses can decrease."

"We pay a yearly licensing fee of about €20 per computer."

"The product has average pricing."

"The price is comparable."
