Featured Reviews

GANESAN K - PeerSpot reviewer
Distributors highly benefit from advanced data monitoring and seamless integration features
The Machine Learning capability could be improved, particularly in data discovery. When given sensitive data expressions, the system retrieves files that are not always related. The system should adhere strictly to the given expression rather than just focusing on keywords within the expression. In endpoint features, while the detection rate is good, there could be improvements in remediation and rollback solutions during attacks. Other solutions now include such options since providing 100% security is impossible. The flexibility varies across environments. Enterprise customers find the product performs well without affecting their data, with scans running as scheduled. However, SMB customers experience some performance issues during scanning. Since EDR is integrated, users must access the EDR console to check endpoint detections. It would be beneficial if this functionality were incorporated within the EPO console, as the current threat graphs link doesn't display endpoint threat graphs.
Vikas Saxena - PeerSpot reviewer
Email scanning and keyword monitoring improve compliance with data policies
Trend Micro DLP allows me to scan and monitor emails for specific words, ensuring compliance with data loss prevention policies. The DLP system captures keywords from email headers and subjects, and if those words are present, the DLP system operates accordingly. I also use DLP for monitoring data at rest, data in transit, and external devices.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
"Trellix DLP offers many features, using EDR, EPP, disk encryption, and other features."
"It is a very stable solution."
"I am satisfied with stability as there are not any latencies."
"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do. It is fairly simple to use compared to Proofpoint."
"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."
"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do."
"I rate the product an eight out of ten."
"We are able to check the log and keep records."
"We use Trend Micro mainly to monitor user activities, such as tracking the websites they visit and purchase items. Additionally, we focus on identifying and addressing antivirus threats. We used to explore a feature related to proxy but decided against it as an enterprise solution wasn't readily available for us. Our primary use of Trend Micro revolves around end-user security. Integration with Active Directory has proven beneficial, allowing us to easily push updates or changes directly from the console."
"There are no issues with the interface."
"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is a reliable product."
"We find the malware scanning and intrusion detection most valuable for our server management requirements. We can find out who is on our servers and what they have done."
"Everyone can use this tool."
"We find the initial setup to be very easy."
"The interface and dashboard are okay."
 

Cons

"Trellix is incompatible with Linux, and its DLP part is incompatible with Mac. Sometimes, it does not work on Windows, either."
"When cases are raised, partners perform initial L1 or L2 troubleshooting. However, ticket resolution times are often too long, with new engineers sometimes requesting the same logs repeatedly."
"The main challenge we face is with our on-premises Trellix DLP implementation. While we can push the agent, we cannot apply the policy on Azure systems."
"In future releases, I would like to see like to see encryption available on the cloud-based version."
"Having someone within a region who understands the countries and how they approach data and information security is sometimes where the problem lies."
"It's not very user-friendly for a beginner, so it would be easier if the platform or console were manageable or user-friendly. The dashboard could be simplified."
"I would rate the solution seven out of ten based on my last experience within the last six months. It's a bit of a fallback, and I know they are working on improving scalability."
"During the initial setup of Trellix DLP, we faced challenges where the Trellix console buffers multiple times, taking time to reload when clicking on features, which needs improvement."
"The solution could use better logging in the future."
"Within the solution, many of the functions do not perform as intended...It is not a stable solution...It is not a scalable solution."
"Being able to specify an agent list, or client list, to allow support from outside of the organization, would be of benefit to this solution."
"I would like to provide improved network direction in order to regulate all of the user agents. We only use Trend Micro Data Loss Prevention to manage various threats and malicious user agents currently."
"The tool should improve its reporting functionality. We need a proper reporting feature in a DLP solution."
"Most of the functions don't work in the way that they are supposed to."
"They could improve the product's data loss policies."
"Typically, DLP solutions do not cover emails without an additional component, which necessitates a dual-service proposal. Comparatively, on-premises deployments offer more features locally than online or remote deployments, which sometimes face challenges with feature support. This is a common issue with Trend."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing depends on the number of users in a company."
"Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention is expensive compared to other solutions."
"The platform is expensive. We purchase its yearly license."
"I rate the tool's pricing a three out of ten."
"The product is worth the money you pay for it. It is not an expensive solution."
"The client needs to pay for the Trend Micro Integrated Data Loss Prevention license on an annual basis."
"The licensing and pricing of Trend Micro are comparatively low and competitive since they are offered in a bundle, especially compared to Symantec, which was has a relatively high price."
"It's not too expensive, especially when compared to SecureTech, and Forcepoint. It's actually cheaper. A license costs about INR 4,000 to INR 5,000, roughly $60 per license per year. In comparison, Forcepoint licenses are around $90 to $95."
"Price-wise, it is a cheap solution. I rate the solution's pricing a two on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
