Easy to use and competitively priced
Honestly, the product needs to continue the way it is, and I feel that everything will be fine. I haven't had any reasons to complain about the product. The product doesn’t offer MDM functionality under its current licensing model. In the future, I want the product to offer MDM. It can allow me to manage my mobile device more efficiently and effectively. Currently, there is a need for a separate license to be added to Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response to be able to use the MDM part. If both are bundled up under the same license, the administration part can be made easier.

The CREM feature is an absolutely essential feature that helps us meet security requirements
Since we started using Trend Vision One, we've been able to enhance our security posture significantly. Trend Vision One has improved significantly over time in providing centralized visibility and control. It started as a set of individual products, but now it feels like one integrated solution. This reduces the need for interfaces or multiple analysis tools. That's why we pursued the one-platform strategy. Trend Vision One has definitely helped consolidate our use of security vendors. We previously used standalone products for endpoint and email protection that weren't integrated. Now, we get the benefits of an integrated solution. I'd estimate we're 50–70% better in security now than we were two years ago. The Cyber Risk Exposure Management (CREM)feature is absolutely essential. Even though we're not critical infrastructure, the NIS2 directive gives us security guidelines. CREM helps us meet these requirements. It is very important to our organization that Trend Vision One integrates AI into the platform. Pattern recognition in forensic data is no longer manageable by humans due to the volume of events. Machine learning is essential to process these and filter what needs human attention. Trend Vision One has improved our organization significantly. Security tasks used to be manual. Now, technology prevents issues or supports staff in detecting them. This shift from manual to technical solutions greatly increased our security. Trend Vision One has reduced the time we spend detecting and responding to threats. I'd say we're 80% faster than before. The platform gives us consolidated data upfront, so we don't have to search for event clues manually. Trend Vision One has helped reduce false alarms. I'd estimate a 50–60% time saving. We have more alerts now than years ago, but also better systems to handle them, making the whole process more efficient. Trend Vision One has helped reduce our cyber risk overall. We now know where gaps are before they become problems, whereas in the past we had to guess. That's a massive improvement. When it comes to operations, the CREM solution helps us identify vulnerabilities in systems. If we patch them, they disappear from the reports—this gives us actionable insights, which is incredibly helpful. It took about half a year to realize the benefits of Trend Vision One after implementation.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The setup is quite easy."
"I have had absolutely no problem with using this solution, it really works well."
"The security is good."
"The most valuable features of Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response are its immediate response and investigation."
"The interface is quite easy to use."
"Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response is stable."
"A great feature of this solution is that it is very well-integrated with antivirus software. Other ADR solutions are implemented as single technologies and are not integrated with the provider, but Symantec offers AV plus ADR."
"The solution can scale well."
"The best part is the XDR threat investigation, which includes different modules like Observer Attack Techniques, Workbench, and Detection Model Manager."
"The user interface is very good."
"From an automation point of view, I find the ability to curate and deploy playbooks very helpful. I find that very convenient for us."
"Overall, I rate Trend Vision One a ten out of ten as I am extremely happy with Trend Micro's capabilities and their platform's strength."
"Our speed has increased significantly."
"The solution is very easy to use."
"Trend Micro XDR is stable, scalable, and reasonably priced."
"The setup is fairly simple."
 

Cons

"The product doesn’t offer MDM functionality under its current licensing model."
"The interface is very complicated."
"The solution can always be more stable and more secure."
"The solution needs to provide better integration."
"Technical support is not as good as we expect, and resolving problems should be more timely."
"I think we have experienced some technical issues because the company focuses mainly on bigger clients. Also, sometimes the solution fails to detect zero-day attacks, so that feature needs some enhancement because it is lacking compared to other solutions."
"They need to improve their cloud presence."
"It would be good if it can anticipate zero-day attacks. I don't know how it can be done and if it is even a feature of this product."
"The support documentation could be more comprehensive."
"We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."
"Trend Vision One would be enhanced by incorporating an SIEM solution as a built-in feature."
"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."
"I believe that the interface could be more user-friendly. At times, it is challenging to locate certain features, and they need to reorganize the user interfaces."
"I would like to have the capability to export the information we receive from the XDR into Microsoft Excel."
"Vision One generates numerous false positives, forcing unnecessary investigations and highlighting a need for improved filtering options."
"It would be better if it were more user-friendly. It would also be better if the implementation were more straightforward."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Of late, because of the Broadcom purchase, its price has been increasing."
"The price is really high and it should be lower."
"Symantec Endpoint Detection and Response is expensive."
"The more devices we have the more expensive it becomes, which is where the challenge is."
"The price is okay, but it really depends on the customer's requirements."
"We are satisfied with the pricing."
"We pay around $100,000 for 5000 licenses every year."
"The price is reasonable."
"Trend Micro XDR is reasonably priced for its value, comparable to other products like VMware Carbon Black."
"It's relatively well-priced."
"Trend Micro's licensing is outsourced to third-party vendors, resulting in price variations depending on the vendor."
"Trend Vision One is cost-effective because it offers detailed reporting and environment control features."
"We have an annual subscription and I believe there is no option for monthly billing at the moment."
"Trend Micro solutions are very expensive compared to other solutions. Even though everything is in one console, each feature requires a separate license."
"The price for Trend Vision One is reasonable compared to Microsoft and Symantec."
"I find it to be a cost-efficient platform."
