Trend Micro Deep Security Reviews

We use it for security, specifically for old servers still in the company. It is doing its job.

I have heard of a lot of threats coming from Europe, but they have never touched our company.

The reports are very extensive. They give us information about things that we are not expecting, such as number of threats that failed due to compromised servers.

It is connected into an intelligence database and is quick to pick up new threats. It also reduces my workload with its speed and the protection that it provides.

The working interface and the reports for non-technical people could use improvement. They are a bit scary.

It is very stable. We are not putting too much stress on it since we are scaling down.

We have not had any problems with scalability. We have very few servers for it to protect. Instead of scaling out, we are shrinking the number of servers (scaling down).

We hired a third-party to do the AWS integration and configuration. The reseller appointed them, and everything was done for us.

On an AWS defined scope, it will cheaper than buying the on-premise service. We did a trial for the on-premise version, but we decided to go with the AWS version. We are downsizing our server room, and it didn't make sense to put more machines in there, as we already have workloads in Indianapolis. 

We already use Trend Micro for their endpoint protection. Therefore, we selected them for their server product because we liked their endpoint protection product. The process took a week to ten days. 

I would recommend it. I have been satisfied, as it is a good product.

We use the solution to detect malicious threats, secure the endpoints, and disable the UFT.

The tool needs to improve its subscription. 

I am working with the tool for twelve years. 

The product is stable. 

The product is scalable. 

The tech support is good. 

Positive

The tool's setup is easy. The tool doesn't take more than five to eight minutes on average to deploy at an endpoint. 

The tool's pricing is high. 

I would rate the product an eight out of ten. The solution is suitable for enterprises. Cost is a challenge factor for small organizations. 

We use the solution for server security. 

The tool provides information on server activities and hosts. 

The tool should integrate SIM functionality. It should also improve customer support. 

I have been working with the tool for a year. 

I would rate the product's stability a nine out of ten. 

I would rate the tool's scalability an eight out of ten. My company has around 40 users for the solution. 

You need to wait to get through the support. The product's support is mostly by mail and not through calls. The support team would only agree to call if the issue is immediate.

Negative

I have used SAP product before. SAP solution is much better in terms of services. 

The tool's deployment is straightforward. 

The tool's pricing is quite high. 

I would rate the overall solution an eight out of ten. 

Our main use case of this product is for antivirus and virtual patching.

From a security perspective, signatures and that kind of thing are frequently updated and we have not come across any virus detection.

It would help if they would reduce the price. 

I've been using this solution for four years. 

Scalability is good. We currently have 8,000 users and are planning to increase in the future. 

The technical support is fine. 

Patch management is most valuable. The major selling point of Deep Security is that it is based on the cloud. Deep Security is for the servers and databases of data centers, and generally, for patch management, you have to shut down the machines, and then you have to restart them. So, they need shutdown time, which is a cost. Big enterprises don't want to shut down their database or their data center for any kind of patch. Deep Security creates a wall and downloads all patches. You install it on the cloud. So, it saves your server from any kind of intrusion or any kind of penetration, and whenever you get a chance or time, in six, eight, or nine months, you can physically download or install all those patches in one go. So, it saves you time. It also saves your shutdown time and keeps your data center safe.

Along with patching, they also provide antivirus protection on the servers.

It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR.

Its price is also quite high. It is more expensive than other products for patching. So, it would be nice if they lower its price.

We have been providing this solution for about two to three years.

It is very stable. That's why it is doing so well. They have already captured 90% of the financial market in our country.

I won't say that it is scalable. It is the final product, but it has a few add-ons. You can add other products of Trend Micro, for example, XDR or EDR, along with DDI, but you can't scale Deep Security to another level. It is the final product.

It is a very expensive solution, so it has mostly been used at an enterprise level. Around 90% of the customers belong to the financial sector, and around 95% of banks in Pakistan are using it.

They have a pretty good support system. The best part is that they have their support team on the ground in Pakistan. They also have a support team back at their headquarters. Along with that, they have built a support team at the distributor level. They have also trained the partners. So, support is quite good and efficient.

Its installation is pretty easy. You can do the installation remotely because it is on the cloud, so you have access from anywhere.

Installation duration depends on how many servers you have, but it normally takes about four to five days. It is not just the installation. After installing it, you also have to do testing and other stuff.

You do need certified engineers for it.

It is a very expensive solution. It would be nice if they lower its price.

Its license is based on the machines.

I recommend Deep Security to almost all of my customers. It is a very good product. I would rate Deep Security a nine out of 10.

Our primary use case is for endpoint protection and email as well as web protection. We are stacking our servers once a month and vulnerabilities are checked every day. I'm a senior director in the company and we're a customer of Trend.  

Automated virtual patching would be the most valuable feature. Deep Security has an option called recommendation scans. Once that feature is enabled, it scans the endpoints for these vulnerability questions and the tool can implement the rules to prevent the vulnerability found in this batch.

This is a very good tool but I don't find it to be a particularly user friendly solution, a lot of trouble shooting is required. I believe it needs simplification, without that they will run into continual problems. For now the solution requires spending a lot of time on module issues and anti-malware modules. We also have issues with scaling and this area could be improved. Adding one additional end point means you need to re-input all the other end points. If you have 1,000 users, that is not possible in real time. Each time we deploy new managers we need to connect with all endpoints and they need to be re-entered. 

I've been using this solution for three years. 

This solution is stable. 

The scalability is very good and as we grow we are expanding our tool networks.

The setup is straightforward. We initially procured the tool for 50 people and we've now implemented it for 200. There are many new customers coming in so we're looking to scale it to 1000 plus endpoints.

I am completely satisfied with this tool but we still plan to implement with the Symantec Endpoint Protection for the upgrade segment. We want to use a different tool for endpoint security because if there are any bugs in Trend Micro or any other tool we use then we're in trouble so we've decided not to have multiple tools from the same vendor. 

I would rate this solution an eight out of 10. 

I used the solution for a UK-based banking company. They had around 200 Linux servers. They had the product installed as an antivirus solution on the servers. We were responsible for managing malware or virus detection. We protected the environment from malicious files.

The user interface is the most valuable feature. The customer support provided by the tool is also valuable. The software is regularly updated. We don't face any major issues after updates. It is pretty compatible with every system.

The updates for legacy systems are not rolled out frequently. The product must improve on it.

I have been using the solution for two years.

I rate the product’s stability a ten out of ten.

I rate the tool’s scalability a nine out of ten. I work with a security services company. Four of my colleagues are also using it in their enterprise environment.

The customer support is very good.

Positive

The solution provides proper documentation for setting it up. It's pretty easy. We can follow the steps in the video tutorials. It’s simple to configure. We installed Trend Micro Deep Security Manager on Windows Server and connected all the agents to it. The deployment took around five to seven minutes on each server. It depends on the network speed.

My company is a partner. I am a technical person supporting my clients with the product. Trend Micro is a very reliable company. Its products are easy to use and easy to deploy. It has a pretty good name in the cybersecurity market. Trend Micro continuously conducts workshops and events to engage with its partners. It keeps the partners and customers aware of the new technologies.

Overall, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.

I work with the solution as an administrator. I use the solution for servers.

Deep Security is a great solution for the server. The most valuable feature of the product is vulnerability detection. It is very fast and clear. It protects from most attacks.

The initial setup was complex.

I have been using the solution for the past three years.

I have not faced any issues with the tool’s stability.

The tool is scalable. We have 40 users and 40 servers in our organization.

The technical support team is very helpful.

Positive

We use other solutions along with Trend Micro Deep Security. The choice of the solution depends on the server and users. Deep Security has many features and provides many layers of protection for the server.

Once we get used to the product, it is easy to use.

Trend Micro’s team helped us to deploy the solution and make test addresses for the policy. The deployment took us two hours. Trend Micro’s team helps us with maintaining the solution.

The product has a high price in Kuwait. Sometimes, we face some issues with the pricing. The pricing module should be improved.

I am using the latest version of the solution. I face issues when I want to adjust policies for users on Apex One. I would recommend the solution to others. The product's protection and the team's support are very nice. Overall, I rate the solution a ten out of ten.
