Room For Improvement

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security struggles with resource usage, complex management, user-friendliness, and lacks AI and integration features.
WatchGuard EPDR in Latin America is pricey, with limited compatibility and features needing improvement for broader system support.
We need more training resources for my team and I, such as developing labs and sessions to implement it more easily.
It supports Mac and is fully functional with that.
20% to 30% of endpoints faced difficulty in cleaning or uninstalling the software.
Other firewalls allow adding categories and in-app controls which WatchGuard currently lacks.
Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is not compatible with certain network devices like access points, switches, or routers, which would be an area for improvement.
I would prefer to see some features such as AI in antivirus solutions.
 

Setup Cost

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security has competitive pricing with variable fees, valued for comprehensive enterprise-focused features despite additional costs.
WatchGuard EPDR is seen as affordable and offers good value, competitively priced against brands like Sophos and Palo Alto XDR.
The pricing is very high, despite the solution’s capabilities.
It is worth the money and provides good return on investment.
The pricing is slightly high, but the product quality justifies it.
Regarding pricing, I am not sure because I did not compare it with other antivirus; maybe it is pricey.
 

Valuable Features

Trend Vision One Endpoint Security offers easy deployment, robust threat protection, AI insights, XDR features, and strong support.
WatchGuard EPDR offers zero-trust, AI monitoring, ransomware protection, and integration with firewalls, emphasizing real-time insights and patch management.
The integration of ML and AI provides complete visibility, suggests responses, detects threats, and includes integration into XDR, which covers email security, endpoint security, cloud security, among other aspects.
They are very aggressive for our program, so whenever we have any issue, we just lodge a call, and within 15 minutes, we get the engineer on a call or Webex call to resolve the issue for the solution.
The behavior analytics feature is very useful, and its threat detection based on AI is very strong.
The cloud of WatchGuard lets me see all my devices, updating me to minute levels with detailed information, such as patch status and vulnerabilities.
It prevents issues with Trojans and encryption Trojans, providing efficiency in network oversight.
What is really great about Panda Adaptive Defense 360 is its console in the cloud, and it can keep the inventory of software in the PC.

AI-driven threat detection strengthens security and supports seamless integration
My company had an opportunity to implement Trend Micro Endpoint for one of our customers. They have around 500 PCs as endpoints and also around 100 or 120 servers The behavior analytics feature is very useful, and its threat detection based on AI is very strong. It is easy to integrate with other…
PaolaLamura - PeerSpot reviewer
While being easy to manage and create reports, the tool also offers a good UI
I rate the ease of use and management of Panda Adaptive Defense 360 an eight on a scale of one to ten. The tool's ability to provide information about the vulnerability is the most impactful feature of the product that has an impact on our company's security posture. Speaking about scenarios where the solution effectively prevented the security breach, I would say that our company sees how the tool blocks when our customers accidentally click on some malware, after which it quarantines that file. My company makes a playbook with the SOAR tool that Panda Adaptive Defense 360 uses to block and isolate attacks. In our company's system, if there is a big event that occurs, then to block the endpoint, we use SOAR with Panda Adaptive Defense 360 to block and isolate attacks or threats. The solution's real-time monitoring has improved our company's ability to detect threats if we use it in our company with Panda SIEMFeeder. Only if in my company there is a need to do some research, prepare a report, or if we want to change the policy, so it is not very often that we use the visualization part of the tool in our company. The reporting and analytics part of the tool has helped with the decision-making in our company since we combine different kinds of logs and situations from different ingestion logs, and we can configure a specific alert. In my company, we use the tool's data search functionality if required to check the information we need. Presently, our company uses the configuration alert and SIEMFeeder in our system. I rate the tool a nine out of ten.
