Rick Schibler - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers in-memory protection at a lower price than competitors
Morphisec's in-memory protection is probably the most valuable feature because it stops malicious activity from occurring. If something tries to install or act as a sleeper agent, Morphisec will detect and stop it. Morphisec's Moving Target Defense is critical to hardening our attack surface. If it detects something, it indicates whether it's valid. That means you've got a breach requiring investigation. It detects anomalies but doesn't necessarily point to what caused them. You still need to do that work. The solution is reasonably easy to administer. They made some changes last year, adding a cloud-based monitoring solution that makes deploying and monitoring our endpoints easy.
Ágoston DEIM - PeerSpot reviewer
Works wonderfully to defend endpoints against malware, ransomware, and malicious scripts
It would be much easier if the solution added the allowed USB for pen drives and USB drives. You can import an Excel CSV file with 500 devices, but it will be allowed globally. That would be helpful if you want to allow it only in one policy. If you want to enable these pen drives only for one group or an organization's security group, you have to add them manually one by one. That could be easier. It's a user experience, but you can add not just the serial but also the vendor. If you only have a Kingston pen drive, you can say that you want to allow all Kingston, or you can add the model number. If you know that you have a specific model of the Kingston pen drive, you can just allow Kingston and that model. The serial number is not important. You will not filter by serial number. However, if you want to filter by serial number and add only the given devices with the serial number, you have to add them one by one. You have to do this if you don't want to allow them globally. It's enough if you know that you bought a Kingston pen drive and you just put in that you want to allow the Kingston and the model number. Then, all pen drives of the given model will be allowed for a given security group on a given number of computers. In that case, you can attach only pen drives and no external hard drives from Kingston. That could be fast. If you want to add a given serial number, you add it one by one for a specific group. If you want to allow them globally, you say that everybody can use the pen drive on every computer. You can do it from a CSV. Let's say the CSV imports for security groups only and not company-wide. I think this is the more punctual way. If you want to allow it only for the security group or Active Directory group of users, you must manually edit it to limit the serial numbers. The solution's user experience regarding device control could be more friendly or straightforward.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Morphisec stops attacks without needing to know what type of threat it is, just that it is foreign. It is based on injections, so it would know when a software launches. If a software launches and something else also launches, then it would count that as anomalous and block it. Because the software looks at the code, and if it executes something else that is not related, then Morphisec would block it. That is how it works."
"I really like the integration with Microsoft Defender. In addition to having third-party endpoint protection, we're also enabling Defender... I like the reporting that we get from Defender, when it comes in. I like that it's one console showing both Morphisec and Defender where it provides me with full visibility into security events from Defender and Morphisec."
"It also provides full visibility into security events from Microsoft Defender and Morphisec in one dashboard. We've always had that capability with Morphisec. The more recent version appears to do that even a little bit more natively and it's given us visibility that we didn't have otherwise."
"Morphisec's in-memory protection is probably the most valuable feature because it stops malicious activity from occurring. If something tries to install or act as a sleeper agent, Morphisec will detect and stop it."
"Morphisec is a straightforward solution that is efficient and very stable."
"Morphisec has enabled us to become a lot less paranoid when it comes to staff clicking on things or accessing things that they shouldn't that could infect the whole system. Our original ransomware attack that happened came from someone's Google drive and then just filtered on through that. It has put our minds at ease a lot more in running it. It's also another layer of security that has been proven to be effective for us."
"Morphisec makes it very easy for IT teams of any size to prevent breaches of critical systems because of the design of their tool. When we evaluated Morphisec, the CIO and I sat and listened. What attracted us to them is the fact that it stops activity at the point of detection. That saves a lot of time because now we are not investigating and trying to trace down what to turn off. We have already prevented it, which makes it very much safer and more secure."
"We don't have to do anything as a user or as an admin. It does everything by default with its coding and inbuilt AI-based intelligence. We don't have to instruct it about what to do. It automatically takes corrective actions and quarantines or deletes a virus, malware, etc. That is the best part that I like about it."
"The features I found most valuable in this solution are the micro apps. I also value the dashboard that offers better visibility and helps protect machines from attacks."
"Technical support is quite knowledgeable and helpful."
"We've found the technical support to be very helpful overall."
"Apex One is effective at catching malicious activity. It has multiple modules that improve threat prevention across hundreds of networks."
"I use Trend Vision One Endpoint Security for work control, application control, firewall, whitelist and blocklist filtration, analysis, monitoring, deep security for the servers, major monitoring, and IPS modules."
"The most favorable features have been behavior monitoring and zero-day threat protection."
"Trend Micro Apex One has good features and is lightweight."
"The most valuable feature is Vulnerability Protection."
 

Cons

"The only area that really needs improvement is the reporting functionality. Gathering the detailed information that is in the system for an executive, or for me as a director, could be better. Some of the interface and reporting aspects are a little bit dated. They're working on it."
"We wanted to have multi-tenants in their cloud platform, so every entity can look into their own systems and not see other systems in other entities. I have a beta version on that now. I would like them to incorporate that in the cloud solution."
"It would be nice if they could integrate Morphisec with other traditional antivirus solutions beyond Microsoft Defender. That is probably my biggest gripe."
"I haven't been able to get the cloud deployment to work. When there's an update, I'm supposed to be able to roll it out for the cloud solution, but right now I'm continuing to use our SCCM solution to update it."
"Right now, it's just their auto-update feature. I know they are currently working on that. When they release a new version of the threat prevention platform, I do have to update that, rolling out to every computer. They have said, "From version 5, you would be able to do an auto-update." While this is very minor, that is the only thing that I would say needs to be upgraded. It would just make life a lot easier for other IT teams. However, I have simplified the process, so all I need to do is just download one file."
"We have only had four attacks in the last year, "attacks" being some benign PDF from a vendor that, for some reason, were triggered. There were no actual attacks. They were just four false positives, or something lowly like adware. There have been false positives with both the on-premises solution and the cloud solution."
"We sometimes have to depend on the support team to know what action we should take. If the solution for an alert can be built into the report that we are getting, it will save time, and the interaction with support would be less. At times, corrective action is required, but at times, we don't need to take any action. It would be good if we get to know in the report that a particular infection doesn't require any action. It will save us time and effort."
"We have discovered some bugs in the new releases that they've had to fix, so I would like to see more testing and QA on their side before they release."
"Sometimes it will not communicate with the server, and we need to manually restart items."
"I would like to see better reporting."
"The time required for Apex One to notify us of detection in the central console should be reduced."
"Technical support is very very slow. There is no French support. Only English. The experts are in England, the United States, or Japan, I don't know where. So the support is really lacking."
"I don't give it a perfect 10 because of the Active Directory integration. It would make things easier if the Active Directory were integrated more seamlessly."
"If certain alerts could be translated into day-to-day English with some action plans, a few points, what to do, and how to do it, that would help me personally as IT Manager. They have some recommendations regarding the vulnerability of the endpoint. They take you to some very technical information and if you are not a security engineer or security-trained you might not understand what they're talking about. We are a small company and it would benefit if things were explained better, we cannot afford a dedicated Trend Micro Apex One engineer."
"We had a few occasions where we had to turn off our clients' computers to upgrade the drivers."
"Some of our customers need to add cache file signatures in Trend Micro Apex One, but it is currently not a supported feature."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It does not have multi-tenants. If South Africa wants to show only the machines that they have, they need their own cloud incidence. It is not possible to have that in a single cloud incidence with multiple tenants in it, instead you need to have multiple cloud incidences. Then, if you have that, it will be more expensive. However, they are going to change that, which is good."
"The pricing is definitely fair for what it does."
"Morphisec is reasonably priced because our parent company's other subsidiaries use different products like CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is four or five times more expensive than Morphisec. The competitive pricing saves us money in our overall security stack."
"It is a little bit more expensive than other security products that we use, but it does provide us good protection. So, it is a trade-off."
"We are still using a separate tool. I know for our 600 or I think we're actually licensed for up to 700 users, it runs me 23 or $24,000 a year. When you're talking to that many users plus servers being protected, that's well worth the investment for that dollar amount."
"Price-wise, it's on the higher side. A traditional antivirus solution is cheaper, but in terms of security and manageability, its ROI is better than a traditional antivirus. I would recommend it to anybody evaluating or considering an antivirus solution. If your system gets compromised, the cost of ransom would be a lot more. This way, it saves a lot of cost."
"Licenses are per endpoint, and that's true for the cloud version as well. The only difference is that there is a little extra charge for the cloud version."
"It is priced correctly for what it does. They end up doing a good deal of discounting, but I think it is priced appropriately."
"It's well priced at a yearly rate. The price itself depends on whether the solution is full suite, half suite, or some other engine. It's different according to the consumer's requests."
"If I remember correctly, the cost is approximately four and a half thousand per year."
"Trend Micro Apex One is priced well."
"The price for Trend Micro is reasonable."
"Trend Micro Apex One's subscription model is definitely on the expensive side."
"The price of the solution is fine."
"The cost of this solution is mid-level; not cheap nor expensive."
"I find the price of Apex One to be reasonable. The pricing varies from company to company. Your business will have a different price than what we have because the product's price depends on the number of users."
