Built faster threat response and improved visibility with real-time monitoring and flexible deployment
Trend 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. Trend 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. Trend 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. Trend 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. Trend 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 product's most valuable features are its performance and stability."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's most valuable feature is EDR."
"I find the multilayered endpoint security the most valuable feature."
"ESET Enterprise Inspector's greatest asset lies in its user-friendly interface, which allows for easy navigation and thorough analysis of incidents."
"The rules are the best and most useful features."
"Rules are the most valuable feature of ESET Inspect. They are created through XML language, and they track and filter events from endpoints. If the event matches the rule, the rule is triggered. Exceptions are the second most valuable feature because it gives you the power to filter false positives in large numbers. The third most valuable feature is the Learning mode that facilitates making exceptions for known processes with a good reputation."
"Scalability-wise, it is a very good solution."
"Trend Vision One allows us to monitor attacks in real time, which is a significant benefit, and enables us to use different products with a flexible license, helping to reduce the time to detect and respond to different threats through rapid responses and predefined playbook templates."
"I like that it is a comprehensive security solution with a lot of features. You can say XDR is an end-to-end security solution with endpoint security. It includes all your servers, networks, and other devices. The endpoint security solution does not cover this. Plus, machine learning and features like that are the main things in XDR solutions."
"The centralized visibility is good."
"It is so helpful to have something that pulls all the data into one visual representation of the events."
"This full security posture positions us well for our future security roadmap."
"We haven't had any issues with configurations or customizations."
"I appreciate the value of real-time activity monitoring."
"Trend Vision One gives us better visibility to detect and respond to threats because we can now see more than ever before."
 

Cons

"The platform's price could be better."
"It is not a stable product. We were disappointed in the stability of this product in comparison to McAffee."
"Every vendor is working on making the job of SOC analysts easier, with fewer false positives and more precise detections. ESET uses LiveGrid technology that provides feedback on the reputation of files and operations. It's hard to eliminate all of the false positives, but hopefully, we'll see some improvement with the advances in AI."
"The solution could improve the consumption of resources. The RAM and CPU usage increases during usage which can cause issues. We have three separate services and it would be beneficial if all were executed from one agent limiting the over usage of system resources."
"It may be difficult for a first-time customer to understand all of the functions that are available to him."
"One area that needs improvement for the product is ransomware protection, which does not offer complete security."
"The product is complex to configure, and there are too many errors that are not errors, making it an area that can be considered for improvement."
"In comparison to Trellix, one disadvantage of Trend Micro is the DLP feature. Trend Micro has a light DLP, while Trellix offers a perfect DLP."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. It would also be better if the implementation were more straightforward."
"The solution lacks compatibility with other products. It needs to integrate better with other surrounding solutions."
"Trend Micro could improve its support for non-third-party products and product integrations."
"It is very expensive."
"The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."
"Trend Vision One needs to work on its logging system as the logging systems are very complex, and they need to reform their logs in a more informative way."
"Improving the user interface would be helpful—it can be confusing, especially if you do not use it daily."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I feel it is a very expensive product."
"The pricing and licensing are the big issue now, in my opinion. If the price was less than other companies, or a one-time charge for service was available, I think there would be more users of this solution."
"This is true in the case of licensing, we do not have the most expensive products, and we don't have the cheapest product, it's somewhere in the middle. Perhaps a little higher from the middle, but we are known for what we provide to our customers, and they are pleased."
"The platform is expensive; it could be cheaper."
"The platform's licensing is affordable and straightforward."
"The pricing is fair compared to other solutions."
"Trend Micro XDR is expensive."
"It is definitely not cheap. I do believe you get what you pay for to some degree. It is cost-effective."
"From a pricing standpoint, they're a really good negotiator and they'll work with you."
"Trend Micro's licensing is outsourced to third-party vendors, resulting in price variations depending on the vendor."
"When we have a good product such as Trend Vision One, the price is fine."
"The solution is fairly priced."
"Trend Micro recently switched from a license-based pricing model to a credit system, which caused some initial frustration during my renewal."
