Delivers reliable email security with minimal maintenance and valuable threat intelligence
If you had asked me a few weeks ago, I would have said the user interface needed improvement, but we've just updated it. It looks really modern now, and it's a lot easier to use. At the moment, I don't have anything specific for improvement. Additionally, I would suggest different roles for users. We want the ability to lock down certain functions for certain user roles to prevent accidental changes, such as an apprentice accidentally deleting a customer.

Reliability and threat intelligence make this solution competitive, but AI improvements can further enhance its effectiveness
The best features of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector include its reliability. The second valuable feature is its built-in sandbox feature, allowing for inspection of incoming emails and attachments. The sandbox is an appliance that opens any attachment in an enclosed environment to assess its impact and potential for viruses. This protects the network from harmful threats. Trend Micro has a very large R&D team with excellent threat intel, allowing them to provide better solutions than some competitors. They understand emerging threats based on the information from their EDR. The key strengths can be summarized as reliability, a good integrated one-box solution that includes a sandbox, and their R&D capabilities and good ratings, which lead to better threat intelligence. The detailed threat intelligence provided by Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is valuable in understanding the behavior and tactics of potential email threats.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"They have never let us down and we have never looked back."
"We haven't had any virus infections since implementing SpamTitan."
"The price of this solution is low."
"The most valuable feature is the Link Lock, which prevents our users from clicking on links that haven't been verified."
"Another feature of SpamTitan that I like is the reporting. We are able to identify the users or accounts that have been attacked most. We can see information that shows us the sites that the user goes to, and that helps in launching an investigation of that user and how they use our resources."
"We have not had any issues with the product, the pricing is probably better than most vendors, and the support is definitely top-notch."
"Overall, SpamTitan has blocked spam by 99 percent, resulting in happy end-users whose clean inboxes make everybody more productive, saving time and money."
"The granularity of the setup is most valuable; it has all the features we need from global settings to per-user settings, which makes it possible to really fine tune the spam filter and we are pretty happy with it."
"I find Trend Micro to be a good solution for security purposes."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is the simple analysis of phishing emails."
"Trend Micro is a very good product."
"The solution's most valuable features include visibility into the network and fast sandboxing technology for alerts, though response time can vary."
"I like that it is very user-friendly and easy to install."
"I highly recommend Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector due to its security and scalability features."
"It can effectively monitor outbound and inbound devices."
"I would rate the solution's stability at ten out of ten."
 

Cons

"They could improve on the color of the interface."
"I believe the product is configured for the US or European market, not the Latin American market, and the scoring system is a little too strict for our market. Most companies in Latin America don't even have proper domain configuration, which can cause their emails to be filtered as spam. They might not have DMARC or SDF configuration, so we often have to change the scoring threshold to let legitimate emails through. It's not SpamTitan's fault, but the optimization isn't the greatest considering our market."
"What would be helpful to me is an alert if there were an increase in the number of threats that have been picked up. In that case, an alert could be sent to the admin in our company, to inform us. It could say something like, "Generally, about 20 percent of your incoming emails have been threats. Now it has jumped up to 30 or 40 percent." Something like that would be beneficial."
"The interface needs to be improved; some elements aren't where I expect them to be, so it could be more intuitive."
"The interface is a little dated aesthetically. I know that's a small thing, but it could use a little bit of a facelift."
"The only improvement that comes to mind is updates."
"With SpamTitan, the false positives and false negatives seem to be higher than those with the product we had previously. The other area for improvement has to do with how to deal with false positives. If something slips through, there's no easy way to mark it as spam globally. The add-in has not been working. We haven't even deployed it to our entire organization yet because it's not working for the few in the pilot project."
"We had problems initially when first implementing eFaxing. We had problems trying to get eFaxes to be recorded correctly and come through correctly."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector could improve by making it easier to use. Microsoft solutions are easier to use."
"To improve Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector, it should have updates with better AI and ML-based integration."
"I would like to be able to send emails to a specific sandbox. This is a feature I would like to see added to the next release."
"It could be more user-friendly, easier to install, and lighter on the network. I would say that for all products because you do not need technical expertise to take care of it. When you have a user-friendly solution, it makes it easier for the vendors or companies like us. We do not have to go to the client's site to attend to issues all the time. Because it is user-friendly, they can take care of it after some training."
"Trend Micro's technical support has room for improvement. More efficient support should be provided, especially for standard support."
"The tool needs to incorporate faster response times for issue detection, more detailed reports, and better compatibility with older operating systems (e.g., Windows 7, 8, Server 2012)."
"The dashboard could be improved to match the quality of Check Point Harmony's dashboard."
"The product's feature for message processing and blocking devices for bulk emails needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They give you an update without charging you more for it, which is awesome. I like that a lot. It makes you feel appreciated as a customer."
"The pricing and licensing have been very fair. I can't complain."
"The pricing is very reasonable. I know the cloud version costs more because of active 24/7 monitoring, but we take care of that as our setup is on-prem. SpamTitan is in line with what we were paying for GFI MailEssentials but works much better."
"The price and the licensing are fair, allowing us to make a margin on the product. We paid a one-time fee for the sandboxing feature; apart from that, it's just the standard licensing."
"The pricing for this solution is fair, and comparable with other products."
"The pricing was a little bit below the average of what we were looking at."
"I don't deal with pricing. In terms of licensing, the last I heard was that the licensing for users in SpamTitan isn't fully functioning because of some integration issues with Microsoft. I know we have more than 20% on our licensing at the moment, but the way the licensing is supposed to run makes a lot of sense for us. We are looking forward to that part getting implemented correctly."
"The pricing model was one of the reasons that we selected it. The solution was very effective at what it did and it was very cost-effective. My client saved in the 30% to 40% range by installing it, so the pricing is competitive."
"We pay for an annual subscription for this email security solution."
"It's an expensive solution, and you may not see a return on investment in a short period of time. However, you will see a return over a long period of time."
"The solution's pricing is high, and I would rate it an eight out of ten."
"The price of Trend Micro Deep Discovery Email Inspector is less expensive than Microsoft solutions."
