Ensures robust security management with seamless integration
We work with the cloud version of Cortex Xpanse. We are working with Palo Alto products right at the moment. We have Cortex and GlobalProtect that we are using. I'm not sure if we utilize Cortex Xpanse's capability to identify internet-facing assets. I'm not sure about the automated threat assessment of Cortex helping prioritize vulnerabilities. I would assess the integration capabilities of Cortex Xpanse as good; no issues so far with integration with other tools from different vendors. Cortex Xpanse supports our organization's regulatory compliance efforts 100%, and it's what we need from it. Right now, I am working only with Palo Alto for security. I am not planning to work with some other vendors. On a scale of one to ten, I rate Cortex Xpanse a nine.

Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment
TrendAI Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit. We can quickly see where the attack is coming from. TrendAI Vision One enables us to use different products with a flexible license. For example, if a customer is using endpoint security and wants to switch to another solution, they can instantly use a different Trend Micro product, such as email. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats, as it can respond to attacks very quickly. With playbook templates, in cases of recurring attacks, responses can be made quickly using predefined playbooks. TrendAI Vision One has helped to reduce noise from false positives. There have been false positives before, but it was due to the customer not telling us which app they were using. Best practice configurations must be applied properly to avoid such issues. TrendAI Vision One helps customers consolidate the use of security vendors and reduce silos by offering one platform for all product management.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The best feature of the product is that it's easy to manage when we have set it up, and the beneficial impact of Cortex Xpanse for the company is security."
"When there is an alert from Cortex Xpanse regarding a certificate or surface, it prompts us to take immediate action."
"Cortex Xpanse is a strong solution for attack surface management, including digital brand protection and continuous monitoring."
"Cortex Xpanse has an easy-to-use user interface."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its firewall and antivirus."
"The most valuable aspect is its ability to catch trojans and malware."
"As an attack surface manager, I highly recommend Cortex Xpanse, especially if there are many services exposed publicly on the internet."
"XDR provided a much more deep view into what is actually happening."
"TrendAI Vision One has reduced our time to detect and respond to threats almost sixty-five to seventy percent."
"Scaling is not a problem at all."
"The proactive approach is the best feature."
"For scalability, I would give a rating of ten out of ten."
"The user interface is very good."
"TrendAI Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit, and we can quickly see where the attack is coming from."
"Trend Vision One has helped reduce our time to detect and respond to threats by 30% to 40%."
 

Cons

"Cortex Xpanse needs to add dark-web scanning."
"Some improvements are needed in the user interface. It may require more enhancements."
"There is an issue with the old versions of Cortex, and so when we have an older one with Windows or any OS, we have a problem with its connectivity with the cloud."
"It's challenging to confirm the absolute coverage and penetration of Cortex Xpanse into the Dark Web. The solution lacks comprehensive intelligence on adversaries and risks, which other competitors might provide."
"Regarding technical support, I would rate it as a seven."
"Cortex Xpanse should offer better customization and configuration options on its dashboard."
"There have been a few incidents where intruders could get into the network even while the product was deployed."
"When investigating alerts, users often have to navigate through multiple windows and tabs to gather all relevant information."
"We are just having a problem with Trend right now. We have had short problems twice before—in the sense that when Trend does an upgrade on the platform, or anything else, there are disruptions afterwards."
"In future releases of Trend Vision One, I would like to see improvements regarding role-based access control, as it is important to ensure that when granting admin access to a person, their visibility is limited to only their respective markets. For example, while creating roles for countries like France, Germany, and Italy, they should only manage their own endpoints to maintain privacy and security."
"One area that has room for improvement is the interface of TrendAI Vision One, which is very slow due to its data center being based in America."
"Stability can also be improved. Sometimes when we perform user management or when we go to log in to create the user, there will be some lagging on the network or it will automatically log out, and then we have to log in again on the web page."
"It is costly. It is not that affordable for a small organization."
"They are planning on adding the Security Playbooks as a complete feature. In the preview mode, it is available; however, it is not released."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Cortex Xpanse is cheaper than other solutions."
"The tool's cost is too high."
"Trend Micro's licensing is outsourced to third-party vendors, resulting in price variations depending on the vendor."
"From a pricing standpoint, they're a really good negotiator and they'll work with you."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"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."
"While the pricing and licensing for Trend Vision One are generally acceptable, the need to purchase additional features separately adds complexity."
"The solution is fairly priced."
"The pricing for Trend Vision One is reasonable."
"Trend Micro XDR is reasonably priced for its value, comparable to other products like VMware Carbon Black."
