A stable solution that allows you to manage IT clients from receipt to retirement
The initial setup is straightforward and easy to use, but you need to understand the different functionalities and modules. The console version and the Hub application are different, and you need some knowledge to make the process easier. Deployment typically takes about two months. You start with the initial setup and then continue with operations. The deployment process is straightforward. The master installation takes about thirty minutes. After that, you deploy different relays to discover the endpoints and create the credentials and sources to install the agents. Once the agent is installed on an endpoint, you can manage it as needed. The first step is always the installation. BMC Client Management can be deployed both on cloud and on-premises. After the COVID-19 pandemic, there was an increased need for remote solutions, so we have customers using both models. In BMC Client Management, I'd rate the initial setup as an eight out of ten.

Centralized console has improved visibility while setup remains quick on diverse environments
I don't know why I find it valuable; my colleague administrated it, but I was the chief of a team of six people, and one of them administered this product, which worked well for defending our servers. I don't know what the best features of Trend Vision One Endpoint Security are; it performs well compared to other products, and I am curious about it, but I cannot think of specific features. Perhaps my colleagues could provide that information, but I do not have that knowledge. The centralized console helps my team greatly; it is very convenient as everything is all in one console, not only EDR but many other products, such as email security and XDR features. Trend Vision One Endpoint Security positively impacts our organization as it is very simple to install on Windows and Linux servers; it is not very difficult to install.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One feature I like, that was especially valuable during the pandemic, is remote control. Remote control grants administrators and support personnel access to the laptops and PCs of employees (who might be working from home) in order to fix any issues that come up as and when they come up, even without having to wait for a support request."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its patching capabilities and the help it offers when it comes to use cases, like prompting for the reboot after a certain period of time."
"The inventory and patch management tools are very valuable."
"The support from BMC Client Management is very good."
"BMC Client Management has helped us be able to patch our OS or any software to the latest version."
"One of our customers is a financial institution with more than 15,000 endpoints, and we use BMC Client Management to manage their regulatory compliance needs, manage the endpoints from a security perspective, and integrate it with service management as well."
"BMC Client Management is a stable solution and one of the best in the market. It allows me to manage all recipe endpoints, including iOS, Android, Linux, Unix, and Windows, all within the same solution."
"It's a scalable solution. We have deployed it for customers using 3000 nodes to those using 300,000 nodes."
"I like Apex One's USB port blocking. We implement different policies for each client. For example, a client might ask us to block certain USB devices or require us to restart a desktop on the network."
"Vulnerability management is a valuable feature that I enjoy."
"I am impressed with the product's antivirus and malware application control."
"It is very precise and allows more permission for different use cases."
"The DDAN and the sand boxing features are very good and accurate."
"The ransomware protection and behavior monitoring features of Trend Micro Apex One are actually good."
"The graphical user interface is simple, making it easy to navigate without the need for additional training or complex documentation."
"Trend Micro Apex One is a seamless solution compared to others."
 

Cons

"BMC Client Management supports only iOS devices. It would be good if they would support Android as well."
"It would be good if BMC Client Management can perform vulnerability assessment scanning at the endpoint on its own and mitigate that. Then, we wouldn't have to rely on a third party VA tool. I would like to see this application move to being a web-based one."
"The solution does not offer the functionality of remote access to users."
"In BMC Client Management, I would like to see more features for executing commands remotely. For example, with SAP, there isn't the capability to execute all the commands available in the console. The latest version includes more endpoints, but they do not cover everything the operations team needs. Additionally, I think improving the hierarchy for managing endpoints is crucial. Extending the endpoint capabilities would be highly beneficial."
"The solution needs to add whitelisting because many customers request it."
"BMC Client Management could improve in the area of integration."
"The on-premises version of BMC Client Management has powerful remote control functionality and decent compliance features, but these features both rely on the discovery tool in order to gain a complete set of insights about the endpoint's environment. Now, BMC's discovery solution depends on having an agent installed in each endpoint and sometimes the agent doesn't work properly, making it difficult to get an accurate understanding of the environment (including special topologies) even with BMC's discovery tool."
"Trend Micro Apex One could improve by having better integration in the future."
"The cost could be improved."
"​It needs a consolidated manager as there are too many parts to currently manage it.​"
"Trend Micro's encryption is not up to the mark. We tried their encryption product, but we did not like it. Encryption was difficult to manage."
"The main thing they need to improve is their reporting functionality and the forensics for their on-premise consult. They do not have very good reporting features or forensic functionality in the on-premise version. They need to improve that."
"It has good signature-based capabilities, but features like “shape detection” can be improved upon."
"We had some problems with Trend Micro Apex One doing the updates and patches. Some of the other vendor's support has said that Trend Micro Apex One receives database signatures updates too late."
"The technical support should be more proactive."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BMC Client Management is a very affordable solution. There is one main server license which I believe is around $1,000 per year, and then there is the license for the actual solution. With the solution license, you can opt for a suite license where you get access to all the features and benefits, or alternatively you can buy any of the five main components of the suite license individually."
"BMC Client Management is a high-priced solution, but given its performance and capabilities, I think it offers great value. I don't have the exact number for the yearly licensing costs. I believe there is an additional cost of around two hundred dollars."
"The solution is low cost."
"To use BMC Client Management they charge annually per node."
"Its pricing was good. It is very competitive with all the other vendors."
"The price of the solution was expensive in the first year we had it because we were purchasing it locally. This year we have a global discount for the license. There is an additional cost if you want maintenance support."
"The price of the solution is fine."
"Pricing and licensing are competitive with other solutions on the market."
"Its price is reasonable compared to other solutions."
"The price is reasonable."
"Currently, the price for Trend Micro Apex One is good and there are no extra costs attached."
"There is an annual license."
