Trend Micro Deep Security Reviews

We primarily use the solution for security purposes. 

We couldn't find any aspect that was valuable. That's why we want to drop the usage of Trend Micro Deep Security. The team cannot see the benefits.

The initial setup was straightforward. 

It is scalable. 

It is stable. 

We couldn't make the necessary modifications to the solution. We want to see improved authentication. We want to improve the interaction, and we want to get more notifications from the security service.

We've been working with the solution for three years. 

The solution has been stable and is working. We don't have any issues with the tool. 

We have not had any issues with scalability. The solution can expand as needed. 

We are using it on our more than 50 virtual servers. 

I cannot recall dealing with technical support. 

We want to replace the solution with Sentinel One and are moving in that direction now. 

We are also using other Trend Micro products, such as email security. 

The product offers a simple, straightforward setup. I'm not sure how long the deployment itself took. It was implemented three years ago, and I do not recall the exact strategy we used during implementation. 

I'm not sure how many people were involved in the initial deployment. 

We bought and paid for the solution three years ago, and in six months, we will have to renew and pay again. Instead of doing that, we are looking for a new solution, likely Sentinel One. 

My team plans to drop the usage of Trend Micro.

I'd rate the solution five out of ten. 

Basically, we are using the solution for protecting our server.

The product is very simple to use. It is more simple than Kaspersky, for example

The solution is easy to set up.

We've found stability to be great so far.

The solution can scale. 

I am not sure about what could be improved. I don't look at the solution from this angle. Some other person from our team is managing that at the moment.

The solution could use more integration. I've heard that if we are going to deploy the XDR of some other solution, it'll not be integrated. It would be helpful if everything could come together. 

We've used the solution for the last three months. We've only recently deployed it. 

The stability has been good. It's reliable. There are no bugs or glitches and it doesn't crash or freeze. 

It is a scalable solution. We've had no issues with scaling. 

We have deployed this for our server infrastructure only. We have around 7,200 machines which we are protecting through Trend Micro.

At this time, we do not have plans to increase usage. 

We have some local companies here that provide support for Trend Micro. So far the experience is good with this.

Positive

We also have familiarity with Kaspersky.

The initial setup process is very simple. 

The deployment took one to two days. Within one day it was mostly deployed.

The licensing is user-based. 

We are in process of evaluating the XDR solution. We might go with Vision One. I'm not sure about what has been finalized. 

I am not sure about the version we are using. Another team member is managing this.

Our company uses Trend Micro for anti-malware support on servers and user PCs. Its normal anti-virus, file integrity monitoring, and threat prevention modules are also active in our systems.

The overall vision and execution of the vendor are really good. The solution has a low footprint and does not have a lot of impact on the host. The reporting mechanism is also good, and at any given point in time, we can see how many endpoints are compliant. The product support is also good.

The solution should focus on the EDR part and probably have an integrated data leak prevention module as well.

In future releases, the solution should provide one agent who takes care of EDR, end-point security, DLP, and application control.

I have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for more than five years.

It is a stable solution. I would rate its stability a ten out of ten.

The solution is scalable. I would rate its scalability a ten out of ten. Currently, the solution is being used by around 4,000 users in our organization.

The customer service and support team is good.

Positive

The initial setup is straightforward and only a matter of a couple of clicks. Once you have a design in place, deployment is not a challenge. In terms of time– one part goes into solution deployment and the other into solution adaptation. Solution deployment does not take much time; solution adaptation does.

The solution was deployed by consultants. I think one professional from the system integrator or the OEM and one in-house resource are enough for this deployment.

Moreover, it is just like any other IT solution in terms of maintenance. Since it is installed on a server host, whatever general maintenance is required for that host is what’s needed—just general IT maintenance. We have an in-house team of IT and security engineers who take care of the maintenance.

Just like in any other IT solution. General IT maintenance, we have an in-house team of IT and security engineers who take care of the maintenance.

Before deploying a solution, new users must refer to market research. For companies like ours, we select top-of-the-line products. Although this is the best product suiting our requirements, the decision should be based on individual evaluation.

Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

We use Trend Micro Deep Security for workload security. I also use it for protecting my critical server because it has an intrusion prevention feature.

Trend Micro Deep Security protected us from a ransomware attack two months ago. I can protect my server from ransomware using the product.

What I like best about Trend Micro Deep Security is its ransomware protection feature.

Pricing is on the expensive side and could be more affordable. The technical support for Trend Micro Deep Security also needs improvement.

I've been using Trend Micro Deep Security since 2019. I started using it in my previous company when I was the head of IT there. I transferred to another company nine months ago, and we're also using Trend Micro Deep Security.

Trend Micro Deep Security is very, very stable, and we are happy with this solution.

Trend Micro Deep Security is scalable. We bought 15 licenses for 15 servers. Whenever I want some enhancements, it's very scalable just to buy the license and apply it on the server. You can add it from the portal. It's a very, very scalable product. It's very easy to scale.

Technical support for the product was sometimes good. It could be improved. On a scale of one to five, with five being the best, I'm scoring support a three.

The initial setup for Trend Micro Deep Security was very easy.

Deployment of the product was done by the reseller. He came to my office and deployed Trend Micro Deep Security in all locations, through remote deployment.

Trend Micro Deep Security is quite expensive.

We're on a yearly subscription with Trend Micro Deep Security.

We bought the license with support and all the features. We bought 15 server licenses. I deployed the product on the most critical servers.

We're on the sales-based, software-based, and service-based model with Trend Micro Deep Security.

Most of the financial sectors and banks use Trend Micro Security with XDR, which we're also using. The main reason we selected the product is for its XDR or Extended XDR.

There are multiple products and solutions under Trend Micro. Now I'm evaluating Trend Micro Apex One for endpoint security. We will replace Kaspersky with Trend Micro.

They've already added an additional feature, XDR. They're monitoring my servers at their own SOC, so this is an additional feature, and I don't think there's any need for an additional feature at the moment.

My score for Trend Micro Deep Security, on a scale of one to ten, with one being the worst and ten being the best is nine.

We are service providers for our customers. We are using Trend Micro Deep Security as an anti-malware and as an complete endpoint protection solution for server. The primary use case is data center security.

Our cloud hosting proposal has grown up with Trend Micro endpoint products fron officescan on to Deep Security. We propose it also on premise for our customers.  The antimalware engine is really effective.

This product has many features and it works with every operating system and any kind of endpoint. It's widespread.

Monitoring is good, and they also can protect DevOps/Docker enviroment.

It integrates well with the cloud; for example, AWS, and mow Google Cloud Platform.

One problem with this kind of  products is scaling. If you go on large sites you have to have an external database, which would increase the overall solution cost.

The solution offers many features aside from antimalware, lile Host FE and IDS/IPS, File integrity monitoring and so on, but if you use it to protect deliering agents on hosts you'd better verify the amount of host resources (ram)  utilized by DS agent itself.   

We have been working with this solution for more than five years. We also delivered Deep Discovery suite products ad advanced ATP solution.

At one time we had some issues, but not anymore. It's quite a stable solution.

It's on of the best scalable antimalware solution as the amount of protected endpoints grows.

We have support here in Italy and we contact them directly. We have a good relationship with our local support.

Overall, we are quite satisfied with technical support.

The initial setup is complex.

The time for deployment depends on the size. You have different installations for different sizes.

we integrated it with vendor engineering assistance. The level of their assistance team is high,  they have skilled and expert people

It's more expensive than other endpoint protection solution. It's not the cheapest.

for our customers i also evaluated: Symantec, Kaspersky, Sophos. Bitdefender

I would recommend Trend Micro Deep Security. 

If you need a versatile solution that covers many different needs or requirements, Trend Micro Deep Security is very good. It's a broad-spectrum product.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

We are using two products. One is Trend Mirco Deep Security, and the other is Apex One. We use Apex One for endpoint protection and Deep Security for server protection.

It scans for intrusion prevention and the forensics of any threats.

On the product side, they have done multiple upgrades. When we started with Trend Micro they offered us the OfficeScan agent. It is a malware product. After that, it upgraded to Worry-Free. Then we moved to Apex One. So Trend Micro offered all the upgrades. Since we are in the manufacturing industry our focus is mainly on production and we don't consider IT much. In this regard, we are not upgrading our hardware much. We are using the same hardware for five, six, seven years.

However, Trend Micro does not support less than Windows 7. So that is a drawback for us. Otherwise, the functioning of the product is very good.

In terms of valuable features, I would say its intrusion prevention. Each and every IP connecting to the server gets scanned so we know everyone who is accessing our server and we can block whichever IPs do not belong to us at the firewall.

Another valuable feature is its lightweight nature. It is only 25 MB deployed in the server, yet it works smoothly, and everything is automated, including the updates and scans. We have scheduled scans that give us a weekly report.

As for what could be improved, I think it should come with an XDR facility without any extra cost. They're always releasing new features, but we need to pay extra for them. Our management is a little conservative about paying for new features. So if they're upgrading something or coming out with a new technology, they should provide it to the existing users. Recently, I attended a webinar that XDR gave about their new threat finding features and we have not received them yet. They are not giving it to existing customers. They are only offering it for purchase. It is for threat forensic reports.

I'm not asking for free, since we are already paying. Whenever they come out with a new thing, they should integrate it with the existing product. That is my opinion.

Additionally, we need a complete web reputation. We need to be able to do forensics for any incoming threat, to find details of the source of the threat, and to catch the '"enemy."

We have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for the last two years.

In terms of stability, it is very good at finding malware, threats, etc... There is no virus problem, no external threats, no data leak. It is good for now.

We have not experienced any bugs, or glitches, or crashes.

Before we started using Trend Micro were using McAfee. We switched because we got a ransomware attack back in 2016. It wasn't safe enough. It was one of the first attacks in India and our management said that McAfee was not ready for it. They had not upgraded their signature and it had multiple systems attacked. After that, management decided to switch to another product and that's when we started using Trend Micro. For the last four or five years we have not had any problems.

The initial setup and deployment are not complex. The infrastructure is very good to operate. 

The deployment of the agent is very lightweight. It takes about 10 minutes to complete. 

We deployed under the consultation of Trend Micro. But I can also manage it. When we run into any actual problem only then do we contact Trend Micro. Otherwise, it is running smoothly.

As a user, I am not finding any drawbacks or problems in this security product. But I do see in some forums comments about issues other customers are facing. I know there are multiple products in the market that are maybe better than Trend Micro. That is why I came to your site and researched other solutions. I have found that Palo Alto is better than Trend Micro. But we have not tested it yet, so I requested from Palo Alto Networks to show us some other products. They are coming next week to show us. If we find that they are better than Trend Micro we will switch. But overall, Trend Micro is working very well.

We had also evaluated Symantec in the past.

I am satisfied with the product. As I mentioned, sometimes we feel some other features should be included. For example, the complete system control and web reputation. Regarding web reputation, I am a little limited because although we are blocking some sites, they are able to access those sites from out of our network. In other words, the restriction should be permanent whether it is done on-premises or on the internet. That is a drawback.

I can recommend it because it is good product. I have experience with other products as well and they have failed in the security field. That why I'm working with Trend Micro now.

The user interface in Trend Micro is very helpful. They have some study videos and some process videos included in the portal itself. So when we are in any system or get a warning or any critical error we can resolve it on the spot because we have the solution attached to the data error. That is something good thing they have done in the portal. With the instructions they have given we can see what we need to do so we can get it resolved by our self. We can learn the things on our own with no need to go to support. 

On a scale of one to ten I would rate Trend Micro Deep Security an eight.

• End users
• Some servers

There is a degree of set it and forget it in regards to the actual endpoints and what you can do with the console, which is nice.

• Its reliability: We have one centralized place to look at threats. 
• The ease of installing it for users.

If I had more reporting, the product would be an A plus. Reporting is the one thing that we are sort of missing, especially with more log information. 

I trust this product more than Symantec. Since we have installed the program, we have had no intrusions at all.

They're tech support is on top of things. The few times when we had questions, they have gotten back to me quite rapidly.

We have quite a bit of old servers that we are trying to migrate off of, and we had Symantec on them. Because of Symantec's logs, we were on the constant battle of always having to clean up the space, where when we put on Trend Micro on it, we didn't have to worry about that anymore. It has been easy to use. I can control it from the computer on my desk and not have to worry about it. I can push definitions, which has been easy to use as opposed to having to be on the actual user's computer.

The integration and configuration of this product in our AWS environment was very easy.

Purchasing on the AWS Marketplace was easy. We decided to purchase this solution on the AWS Marketplace since we were already there.

The pricing is fair.

There were three runners up when evaluating this product: Sophos, Symantec, and Trend Micro.

We chose Trend Micro for the following reasons:

• Its smaller footprint.
• It did not take up a lot of storage space. 
• The agent was small enough to where you wouldn't even notice it.
• The ease for the user to install it themselves. 
• The actual web portal.
• Cost: The price offered was decent compared to Sophos, which was extremely expensive.

It integrates well with other products, e.g., we use it on user endpoints, servers, physical servers, VMware, and AWS. We use it on a lot of platforms.

Right now, we are using a cloud-based version, which I believe is the AWS version. We have the risk-free version which gives us a web format for us to push out programs to computer servers.

The most valuable feature we have found is threat detection.

We have had some issues when it drains some of the resources of the server. When that happens it slows down some of the processes and causes the CPU to run a little harder.

We have been using Trend Micro Deep Security for the past six months.

The stability is good for our purposes.

Trend Micro Deep Security is scalable.

We find that their technical support team is always accessible and willing to assist.

Positive

It can be complex to implement depending on what features you enable because Deep Security is such a comprehensive product. However, if we just enabled everything out of the box, then it's quite easy. Your choice of how many layers of security you want makes a difference.

The cost runs around forty dollars per server a month. 

I know that there is another product that we use that's a competitor. It has a team of specialists that monitor the logs. If you've got the product installed on a server, they monitor it live. That's very useful because it adds another dynamic.

Learn as much as you can about the product because it is very comprehensive. Read the documentation before you install it and learn about the system first. I would rate Trend Micro Deep Security a nine out of ten.
