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.
Matthew Weisler - PeerSpot reviewer
Great granularity for policies or applications without needing hash values
The solution is cloud based which makes it easy to use for remote devices or work-at-home situations. The solution supports full trust or signature-based approvals. You can get very granular and band out policies or applications without having to do hash values. You can band through the entire environment by execution of the name or desk IDXE. This can be achieved on the policy side because of the signature, IOC, or naming convention itself. This is very effective for pushing more blockage or removing threats across the board. The solution has a very nice API on the back end for remoting into a system and executing scripts or utilizing self automation. This is useful for monitoring several different companies in a workspace or workbook-type format. For example, I report and send out mass emails from a clickable button in an Excel workbook. The APIs all exist for each client. I push out automatic endpoint monitoring and reports every single day at a particular time, with a simple clickable button that serves as a scheduled task for fifty clients.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Trend Vision One offers centralized visibility and management across all protection layers, providing a holistic view of our environment and enhancing visibility across the entire infrastructure."
"Trend Vision One's greatest assets are its cloud-based platform and credit-based purchasing system, which eliminate the need for traditional licensing and procurement processes, enabling quick product acquisition within one or two days."
"We are very impressed with the single pane of glass visibility that Trend Micro XDR provides."
"Drilling down further, we can analyze how our users are utilizing their workstations, including the websites they visit."
"It has the feature to track an attack back. If there is an incident or an attack occurs, you can get a bird's eye view of that attack. You can see how the attackers came in and how they managed the attack. You can trace an attack. If you are giving a presentation to the management, you can easily show it to them in a live environment how the attackers came, which is amazing."
"This full security posture positions us well for our future security roadmap."
"They were one of the companies, early on, that spent a lot of time integrating their toolsets, and I was really impressed with that... the endpoint management system could reach out to the Deep Discovery system on the network and pick up something that it perceived as a suspicious object."
"The most important thing for us as a customer is that we can spend more time in other places as it's simpler to have that overview. We have much more time for other tasks."
"The initial setup is pretty straightforward."
"Behavioral Monitoring stops known malicious events before they even begin."
"It has intelligent learning behind it and we have been very successful in preventing attacks."
"I found it very valuable as a whole. It is good at detecting anything and has kept us very safe. It is also very easy to use."
"I rate Carbon Black CB Defense an eight out of ten for the ease of its initial setup."
"The portal is easy to use and manage."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup was straightforward."
"Carbon Black Defense has a higher detection ratio because it's cloud-based and it also does a lookup to virus total."
 

Cons

"There should be improvements in risk quantification, where the risk is displayed in a quantified manner, showing the dollar value loss."
"Results were delayed."
"We've received some mild complaints that the documentation is sometimes not up to date."
"The reports lack detail and customization options, particularly for XDR, which hinders our ability to provide tailored reports to clients."
"In new versions I would like to see better implementation of the reporting features, especially in regards to EDR visibility."
"We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."
"Reporting could be a little bit better. They are working on it, and it is getting better."
"A room for improvement in Trend Micro XDR is more visibility into the alerts. We do get alerts from the solution, but when we are away, we need to have more visibility."
"This product should be cheaper."
"The local technical support is very poor, but the support from headquarters is very nice."
"A search bar in the investigation page and some AI-related tasks like outgoing alerts, or recent tactics that are being used in the market, must be embedded in the tool so that it's easier to find alerts."
"The EDR portion could be better. I'm not a big fan, but it works."
"CB Defense could be more compatible with Linux, and its cloud provision could be improved."
"I would personally give the tech support a rating of seven out of ten."
"I haven't run into anything that needs improvement. The website interface can be a little bit better, but it's still good as compared to most others."
"The tech support communicates, but it's just not with movement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"From a pricing standpoint, they're a really good negotiator and they'll work with you."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive but we got a good deal from Trend Micro."
"Trend Micro's cost is higher than other solutions. That is the main reason why we need to switch to another solution."
"It is costly. It is not that affordable for a small organization. Only big organizations can afford it. It is a new feature that has been added, so its price is fair. Its licensing is probably subscription-based. It is for one or two years."
"Trend Micro XDR is reasonably priced for its value, comparable to other products like VMware Carbon Black."
"Trend Vision One offers a competitive price-to-value ratio."
"The pricing is fair and not on the higher side."
"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 price for the solution is completely at government level, meaning one which is very high."
"It's reasonable in price"
"It is more expensive, but it's worth it. There are no additional costs beyond the standard licensing fee."
"In terms of licensing costs, Carbon Black CB Defense was all associated with CROW and the services my company is using with them, so it came all-inclusive."
"Carbon Black might be a touch more expensive than Symantec. They tend to get a premium for their capabilities. They're sort of an industry leader in a lot of areas with the functionality that they provide."
"The product is expensive. There are some additional costs apart from the standard licensing charges attached to the solution."
"The solution has almost the same price as other different kinds of infrastructures, but it offers a lot of different features."
"I am not really involved in the pricing of this product. But, from my understanding, it is OK for us."
