Managed threat detection efficiently with minimal resource usage
We used the solution as a Managed Detection and Response (MDR) service. It detected threats, and the team managing our services took care of it. We did not face any major challenges or attacks, and memory utilization was minimal. It functioned very well Cynet was valuable since it efficiently…
Nagesh-Ng - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers a single console to control all applications and URL filtering
I am satisfied with the malware detection capabilities of the solution. At our company, using the product we haven't found any incidents or threats that couldn't be easily resolved. Most of the customers of Trend Micro ServerProtect in our organization belong to the Healthcare industry. I have witnessed smooth integrations with Trend Micro ServerProtect. I haven't yet noticed any AI capabilities in the product. I would recommend others to adopt Trend Micro ServerProtect as it can be easily installed and managed. The product assists in administration. The solution is a perfect fit for the SMB segment. I would rate Trend Micro ServerProtect an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The feature I find most valuable, is the reality graphical user interface."
"A reliable security system that automatically quarantines anything suspicious."
"The product is very easy to use. Customers really appreciate that."
"This solution requires less management and is very easy to use."
"I like that you can implement it in the managed service portfolio."
"The most valuable feature is the monitored support behind it."
"It's transparent, so it's not something where every user has to press a button to download or do the thing. It is centralized, in fact. Personally, I use Malwarebytes and other tools, which are fine for home use. Cynet is also relatively silent in terms of operation, except when it's required to act."
"The dashboard is beautiful, overall easy of use, and the UBA and NBA features are valued."
"The most beneficial aspects of Trend Micro ServerProtect are its user-friendly console, allowing anyone to configure policies easily, and the excellent support provided."
"The most valuable features are the anti-malware and antivirus capabilities."
"Scalable security solution with virtualization and virtual patching functions, able to provide full security that's specific to the service, e.g. it handles virtual machines better."
"It helps us quickly address potential issues and provides us with valuable insights."
"Able to quarantine any malware."
"The solution allows centralized administration"
"Virtual Batching and the intelligent anti-malware components are valuable security tools."
"The most valuable feature is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)."
 

Cons

"Most of their times are in Greenwich Mean Time. I would like to see more local time zones."
"I cannot provide more details about Cynet's automation features. While Cynet claims to be automated, the specifics of this automation are unclear. They claim to have a high capability to detect and block attacks, but I am cautious about companies that claim to solve every problem without limitations. It does help in identifying malware on the network but doesn't specifically identify vulnerabilities."
"Linux servers are not supported."
"They have some things in the pipeline, we understand, and they're going to be able to support Android and all these other devices soon. The key is the devices - which is an aspect that is lacking right now. Every company has that problem, not just Cynet."
"Cynet should include complete Single Sign-On (SSO) services."
"Having a DLP feature would add value"
"Their deployment needs some work, especially with integration with remote monitoring management systems like Datto AutoTask or ConnectWise Automate."
"I'd like to see more data loss prevention within the product."
"The cost is very high and it should be lower to be more competitive."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
"We found that when we push Trend Micro from the console to our client's PCs, we need to manually restart the PC. I have 500 users and the manual input is time-consuming."
"I would like to see SMS notifications sent as alerts, in case we do not have access to our email."
"Lacking analytics and a machine learning technique."
"One thing I have been facing is that some fake threats have appeared that even Trend Micro was not able to clear up. It couldn't tell you why these threats are happening, where they are coming from and what the costs are."
"Integration with different platforms could be an area for improvement in Trend Micro ServerProtect, e.g. it needs more integration. It could also be more secure and more stable. In the next release, this solution should also include more EDR visibility."
"Notifications are not very good with Trend Micro."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We purchase the product’s yearly license."
"Everything is included in this one solution and the pricing is pretty competitive."
"It costs us 20,000 to 28,000 per year."
"Our billing is on a quarterly basis, but they have monthly or annual billing availability."
"Cynet has a pay-as-you-go pricing model."
"it's not cheap, but I would rate it a three out of ten. If one is cheap and ten is expensive."
"This solution is expensive. I would rate the price as a three out of five when compared to similar products."
"My company's customers have to make yearly payments towards the licensing costs of the solution. Cynet is not expensive."
"Pricing is based on the components you choose from the suite to run in your installation. Costs vary by the number of features and the number of servers."
"Pricewise, this product is okay."
"This product has an annual subscription, but also offers MSP options."
"The product is available at a reasonable price"
"In terms of price, the solution is in the middle; it's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. I rate it three out of five for cost."
