We use it for endpoint protection but it needs a consolidated manager
Pros and Cons
- "Stability is okay."
- "It needs a consolidated manager as there are too many parts to currently manage it."

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I previously used Sophos, which is a much better product with centralized management (in my opinion).
How was the initial setup?
I was not involved in the initial setup.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We evaluated McAfee and Sophos.
- McAfee: They have a SIM that we already had in place.
- Sophos: It definitely had the ability to be flexible and integrate with the rest of our equipment.
What other advice do I have?
Do not believe the marketing hype. Talk with implementers of the product. Replace the solution with Sophos.
Most important criteria when selecting a vendor: functionality, price, and skill.

Good endpoint protection and helpful support but i not user-friendly
Pros and Cons
- "The nano protection and device control are great."
- "The product can be a bit heavy."
What is our primary use case?
We primarily use the solution for our endpoint protection. It is integrated for endpoint protection. It's a good product. Some of our clients also use the solution.
What is most valuable?
Trend Micro Apex One is good for endpoint protection. They're a Gartner leader for it, so that's why customers like it.
Their patch management is unique compared to other endpoint protection solutions. It is a good feature.
The nano protection and device control are great. We were monitoring predictive machine learning. All features are available in the Apex One feature.
It's scalable.
It is stable.
Technical support is helpful.
What needs improvement?
It is not user-friendly. If they improve this side and make it more user-friendly, then it'll be helpful for IT admins in terms of operating the solution. It's just a bit complex to learn and use at this point, compared to other endpoints.
Sometimes the solution cannot support legacy PCs.
The product can be a bit heavy.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been dealing with the solution for one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The platform is good. The product offer is good and the customer experience is good. The only limitation is it's not easy to operate. That said, it is reliable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
It is scalable. That's not a problem.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support isn't too bad. I've been satisfied with the level of support I can get. They are pretty responsive. Their level of knowledge is good.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Positive
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I've also used Symantec, which is easier to set up. It's also lighter. However, Symantec's support is not good at all.
How was the initial setup?
The solution has a moderate level of difficulty. It's not too easy and also not overly complex. For example, compared to Symantec, Trend Micro is more complex.
I'd rate the setup process a two out of five in terms of the ease of setup. You need to have prior knowledge.
What other advice do I have?
We use the solution in-house. We also resell it and are integrators.
We're using the latest version of the solution.
I'd rate the solution seven out of ten.
Disclosure: My company has a business relationship with this vendor other than being a customer: Integrator / Reseller

IT Engineer at a healthcare company with 10,001+ employees
It offers high visibility on the agent side
Pros and Cons
- "Apex One is flexible and offers a lot of visibility on the agent."

What is our primary use case?
I use Apex One for endpoint security.
What is most valuable?
Apex One is flexible and offers a lot of visibility on the agent.
What needs improvement?
Apex One has some room for improvement on the agent side. I want to get more from the logs and those kinds of things. I want to see whether the agent has the proper updates or any issues with the machine itself. Also, if Trend Micro could add some more tools that I can use in my daily troubleshooting in the future, I think that would be good.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using Apex One for maybe five or six years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I haven't had any issues with Apex One so far. It hasn't given me any problems.
How are customer service and support?
Support is Trend Micro's only downside. Their response time is slow.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I think SAP's endpoint solution has more features available in its interface compared to Apex One.
How was the initial setup?
Installing and configuring Apex One is simple. It took maybe an hour.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
It varies. It can be cheaper, and the other one is more expensive or the other way around. It depends on the reseller and the salespeople unless I'm buying directly from the company.
What other advice do I have?
I rate Apex One eight out of 10. I would recommend it for home-based users. My only real issue with Apex One is the response time from support.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises

How has it helped my organization?
The detection of viruses has been good. The ability to automate has been useful.
What is most valuable?
The security is very good. It's helpful for catching viruses.
We are satisfied with the protection it provides. It protects endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts.
It helps us find new stealthy threats. It can find new viruses and the latest threats before they can do damage. They can update sometimes twice a day, depending on the virus or malicious activity that is happening.
The product can detect ransomware and has runtime machine-learning capabilities.
It provides a single console for detection, threat hunting, and investigations. It's very handy and helps us optimize.
We get end-to-end visibility for our entire security environment. We've been able to reduce our response time thanks to this capability. We've reduced response time by about 30%.
We've been able to integrate the solution with other security products.
When we've had detection in the sandbox, we're able to deploy rapid updates to endpoints.
It's an easy solution to learn. It's also very easy to administer.
The service's endpoint deployment in the cloud helped reduce our staff workload by 20%.
What needs improvement?
There needs to be more integration with third parties. They need to integrate the DLP with the EDR.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable.

Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable feature is the vulnerability attack and detection since it enables swift action."
- "The UI has room for improvement."
What is our primary use case?
We use Trend Micro Apex One for Endpoint detection.
We have deployed Apex One both on-premises and as a SaaS.
How has it helped my organization?
Trend Micro Apex One demonstrates a strong ability to protect endpoints against various threats, including malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts. The solution is considered one of the best in our region's market.
Apex One's advanced protection capabilities adapt to safeguard against unidentified threats, making this visibility crucial for endpoint security.
Apex One's runtime machine learning helps in detecting ransomware, for which we are grateful.
The learning curve for Apex One is easy. The documentation from Trend Micro is excellent, covering all aspects of security, and we also have access to their personnel if needed.

What is most valuable?
The most valuable feature is the vulnerability attack and detection since it enables swift action.
What needs improvement?
The UI has room for improvement. Trend Micro Apex One does not allow us to select a user and deploy a product while creating a new policy and adding users. For example, this limitation occurs when trying to add a USB block.

IT Administrator at a manufacturing company with 501-1,000 employees
Provides good protection, is simple to use, has a user-friendly interface, and is reasonably priced
Pros and Cons
- "One of the better features, in my opinion, is that it also makes use of a web reputation. For example, if someone accidentally clicks on a link in an email that leads to a malicious website, they will block it."
- "The only thing that I would like to see changed or improved in the next release is when it reports C&C callbacks, to make it easier to trace, to see what's doing that, whether it's a program checking for updates or a malicious program."
What is our primary use case?
Trend Micro Apex One was an upgrade for a desktop virus scanner, web reputation, and a firewall.
What is most valuable?
It is very easy to use.
One of the better features, in my opinion, is that it also makes use of a web reputation. For example, if someone accidentally clicks on a link in an email that leads to a malicious website, they will block it.
The interface is good.
It's an excellent product for a desktop.
What needs improvement?
The only improvement I can see is that it occasionally warns us about callbacks, and there's almost no way to trace it back other than a Windows service, making it difficult to completely eliminate it, or know what program is creating the callback.
The only thing that I would like to see changed or improved in the next release is when it reports C&C callbacks, to make it easier to trace, to see what's doing that, whether it's a program checking for updates or a malicious program. At this time, all it says is that it's a C&C callback and then traces back to a Windows Service.
For how long have I used the solution?
We have been using Trend Micro Apex One for approximately 20 years.
We upgraded to Apex One, between four and six months ago.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Trend Micro Apex One is a stable solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Trend Micro Apex One is very scalable.
It's on everyone's desktop on their computers.
We don't have any plans to increase our usage.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
Previously, we used the OfficeScan version.
We are currently using Carbon Black as well.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is straightforward.
We gradually upgraded everyone from the previous version to the new version. If I add up all of the time we spent getting everything done, it probably took us a couple of weeks.
There are two of us that manage this solution as well as Carbon Black.
What about the implementation team?
We completed the installation in-house.
What was our ROI?
We have never calculated the ROI. It may be difficult to calculate, but all it has to do is keep you safe once or twice and it has paid for itself.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The pricing is good.
Licensing fees are paid on a yearly basis.
If I remember correctly, the cost is approximately four and a half thousand per year.
There are no additional fees.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate Trend Micro Apex One a nine out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
