Everybody is working from home, so we wanted to ensure that there was an additional layer of security put into every end product. Since we were using the Trend Micro antivirus and antimalware, we wanted to upgrade it with the XDR as well. We did that about nine months ago.

824,067 professionals have used our research since 2012.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable.
How are customer service and support?
Technical support is not good. Their technical team should be more competent. I have reached out to their product manager, but they weren't very responsive. They need to improve their own technical competency in terms of supporting customers with complex environments because our environment is very complex. The product is not that user-friendly for the complex environment.
How was the initial setup?
They are doing the hybrid environment, and that is where the complexity goes up. Earlier, it was halfway on-prem and halfway to the cloud, and that was causing a lot of issues. That is when we decided to have everything migrated to the cloud. Post-migration to the cloud, the complexity has reduced significantly.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The price is reasonable. It's not exorbitant. CrowdStrike and other players are on the higher side.
What other advice do I have?
I would give Trent Micro XDR a 5 out of 10.
I would not recommend it, but in a situation where somebody has already invested in antivirus from Trend Micro, then it would be okay to go for Trend Micro XDR just to ensure that you are extending the platform. But if somebody is evaluating everything from scratch and looking out for something fresh, then I would not recommend Trend Micro as a go-to-product.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
Public Cloud

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."

What about the implementation team?
Its implementation is done based on the discussions with the customer. For the implementation part, one or two people are enough.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
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.

It is a very good solution. It is a new product in the market, so you cannot compare it with many products.
