Email security has protected users from phishing and modern attacks and keeps data safe
Pros and Cons
  • "Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] prevents that from happening with its advanced detection mechanisms."
  • "The management interface of Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] looks a bit more legacy, and it can have a little bit more improvements in terms of modernizing the UI."

What is our primary use case?

My main use case for Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is to prevent users from accessing phishing or scam links that they receive by emails and other platforms like Teams, SharePoint, or OneDrive. Users tend to receive a lot of phishing or scam emails with links, so Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] prevents these links and emails from coming into users' inboxes.

What is most valuable?

Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] offers Sandbox Analysis and time of click URL protection, which is very effective in terms of preventing time bomb kind of attacks. I have seen a lot of time bomb attacks where users receive URLs that seem to be safe for the first 10 to 15 minutes, but after that time, the URL changes from the backend and when the user clicks it after receiving it, he will be accessing a malicious URL and he might put our sensitive data there and we might suffer a compromise. Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] prevents that from happening with its advanced detection mechanisms.

They also have a very good feature which is called Business Email Compromise, BEC, and it helps us to keep our high-profile users protected.

What needs improvement?

The management interface of Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] looks a bit more legacy, and it can have a little bit more improvements in terms of modernizing the UI. Support also might require a little bit more attention as well.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] for about two years now.

Email protection has reduced spam incidents and protects non-technical users from phishing
Pros and Cons
  • "Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is a money-saving solution, protecting the company data and the company employees, so I think it is saving money."
  • "For improvement, the report part needs much improvement. It is a bit complex for some users."

What is our primary use case?

I work for an IT solution distributor company, and Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is one of our products. We handle implementation and support cases for Trend Micro Email Security [EOL]. In support case scenarios, we receive various cases. For example, we handle alerts such as DLP violations. In a recent case, a customer needed verification on what the violated content in a document was. We also handle spam-related issues and investigate those cases.

What is most valuable?

Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is a really good product, so we do not often encounter product issues. Most of the support cases I receive are when customers need re-verification on their alerts. Overall, it is an easy-to-use and very comprehensive solution.

In my experience, we have implemented this solution in many government sector organizations. In that scenario, the spam filter is a very good feature in email security because there are many non-technical users who are not aware about security and spam. We need to protect those users from spam, so the spam gateway is a really good feature in Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

At the government sector company I mentioned, users are daily receiving spam mails. Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is filtering those spams and protecting those users. The product is protecting their users from spam and everything else. It is a really good product to help users from giving their valuable information to spam emails.

We noticed that there are fewer incidents and fewer spam incidents in these organizations after we implemented the email security solution. With Trend Micro Vision One, it is providing almost everything that a customer needs.

What needs improvement?

For improvement, the report part needs much improvement. It is a bit complex for some users. We have to provide our support for analyzing their data and creating their policies. If it gets a bit less complicated, I think it will be better.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

In my experience, I did not experience any downtime with Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

In my experience, Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is scalable and can handle growth and changing needs easily.

How are customer service and support?

We very often interact with their support team. My experience with their support team is that sometimes it is a bit slower to get their response. I would rate the customer support on a scale of one to ten as six.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I have only used Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

How was the initial setup?

Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is a good solution, and in my opinion, we have interacted with it in many ways, so for us, it is easy to implement. There is no complicated thing in the initial deployment. I think it is a good product.

What was our ROI?

Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is a money-saving solution. It is protecting the company data and the company employees, so I think it is saving money.

Email security has reduced phishing risks and provides continuous protection for critical messages
Pros and Cons
  • "I have seen a huge decrease in phishing emails and spam being received by end users, with about 80% of observed spam and phishing emails being reduced."

    What is our primary use case?

    I use Trend Micro Email Security mainly for phishing email and spam prevention. I have observed in my customers' environments that they receive a lot of spam emails. Trend Micro Email Security is deployed in-line with incoming SMTP traffic to prevent these spam emails from entering the network.

    In addition to spam prevention, I also use it to block phishing emails and threat actors that come through Trend Micro Email Security.

    What is most valuable?

    Trend Micro Email Security offers spam prevention, phishing email detection, and email continuity features that are useful if you have an on-premises email server. The email continuity feature provides email retention for up to 10 days, which has been valuable in cases where my on-premises email security cluster goes out of service, ensuring that incoming emails are not lost. Trend Micro Email Security also provides DLP capabilities for outbound emails, allowing me to inspect whether users are sending sensitive information through emails, knowingly or unknowingly.

    I have seen a huge decrease in phishing emails and spam being received by end users, with about 80% of observed spam and phishing emails being reduced. Additionally, time has been saved by preventing unnecessary investigations into threats received through emails.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Trend Micro Email Security for about six years now.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Trend Micro Email Security is very stable.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Trend Micro Email Security is a very scalable solution with multiple deployment options that can fit any size of organization.

    How are customer service and support?

    Customer support for Trend Micro Email Security is very good, and their responses have been very persistent.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I have been using Microsoft Defender's email security solution previously.

    How was the initial setup?

    The deployment has been very smooth in terms of operation, with good ease of deployment and effective prevention capabilities.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    Pricing for Trend Micro Email Security is very reasonable, and I have experienced very straightforward and upfront dealings with the sales teams and pre-sales teams during engagements.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    I switched from Microsoft Defender's email security solution to Trend Micro Email Security because it was more expensive than anticipated. I also evaluated Proofpoint before choosing Trend Micro Email Security.

    What other advice do I have?

    I recommend purchasing Trend Micro Email Security because you get multiple deployment options and the core features are very reliable. Email security solutions work well with Trend Micro's cybersecurity platform, providing integration that gives very good holistic visibility into your cybersecurity posture and correlates incidents throughout multiple attack surfaces, giving you a better picture of what is happening in your environments.

    I would rate this product 9 out of 10.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    Public Cloud

    If public cloud, private cloud, or hybrid cloud, which cloud provider do you use?

    Offers comprehensive security, easy integration, and good support
    Pros and Cons
    • "The product is quite strong, and that is one reason most clients are replacing their existing email security solutions with it."
    • "Trend Micro is better than any of its competitors."
    • "There is room for improvement in mobile device management. The company also needs to work on pricing because it is quite costly compared to other products."

    How has it helped my organization?

    It integrated easily. About 99% of the time, we do not face any challenges in integrating any product of Trend Micro with the existing network. It is usually compatible with all kinds of networks.

    They have recently added AI to all Trend Micro products. It makes life a little bit easier by catching viruses, providing solutions, and helping out whenever you are stuck somewhere. It is one of the very good features they have right now. For example, one of our clients experienced a network attack and became confused about resolving the issues. The AI was helpful by suggesting initial steps to solve the problem.

    What is most valuable?

    They have both on-premises and cloud-based options available. Compared to other products, it is quite strong quality-wise. The product is quite strong, and that is one reason most clients are replacing their existing email security solutions with it.

    Sandbox is an added feature to enhance your network security. You can include it in the solution or buy it separately.

    What needs improvement?

    There is room for improvement in mobile device management. The company also needs to work on pricing because it is quite costly compared to other products. Many small and medium-sized businesses prefer cost-effective solutions over full-fledged security solutions. These are the two areas where they need to improve a bit.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been introduced to Trend Micro for a long time. Actively, I have been working with Trend Micro for about one and a half to two years.

    How are customer service and support?

    Technical support is available directly from Trend Micro as well as from distributors and resellers. Clients are generally very satisfied with the various types of support available. They can sign up for an SLA with a distributor, partner, or directly with Trend Micro.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Positive

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I used to deal with Kaspersky, and I used to deal with Symantec. Symantec has an advantage of mobile device management over Trend Micro, but overall, if you look at the whole product and its dashboards, I would recommend Trend Micro.

    The Pakistan market used to be dominated by Kaspersky, but Trend Micro has become a strong competitor. Their solutions are stronger compared to Kaspersky, so I am recommending Trend Micro to most of my clients.

    How was the initial setup?

    The initial setup is quite simple.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    It is expensive. The cost is per box, and it depends on how big your environment is. Prices range from 11 to 12 dollars for licenses and can fluctuate up and down, but for environments with 4,000 to 5,000 users, it can be between 6 to 8 dollars. I would recommend it for big companies.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would definitely recommend it. Trend Micro is better than any of its competitors.

    I would rate it a nine out of ten because there is always room for improvement.

    How are customer service and support?

    I think customer support for Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] should be improved at some level.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    I previously used a different solution before Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

    When it comes to the capabilities of Trend Micro Email Security [EOL], I think that product is good, which is why I switched from SonicWall to Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

    How was the initial setup?

    My advice to others looking into using Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] would be to invest time in the initial setup and policy tuning. Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] offers strong protection against phishing, malware, and spam, but you will get the best result by customizing it to your environment and regularly reviewing security reports. It is valuable as a layer of defense, but it should complement security controls rather than replace them.

    What was our ROI?

    I have seen a return on investment with Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    When comparing Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] to other email security products in the market, the pricing, setup cost, and licensing is reasonable for customers.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    I evaluated a few products before choosing Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

    What other advice do I have?

    The feature set of Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is comprehensive, especially around phishing, malware, and ransomware protection. The main improvement I would appreciate is more transparent threat explanation and easy investigation workflows.

I would rate the accuracy very highly.

    My overall impression of Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is positive. Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] delivers strong protection against modern email threats and offers a good mix of security features, scalability, and ease of management.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    Public Cloud

    Email protection has reduced external spam and malware and improves user reporting workflows
    Pros and Cons
    • "Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] has positively impacted my organization as the digital user experience is good."
    • "I have considered how Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] can be improved. The integration within Trend Micro environment is great, but if I want to integrate Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] with a third-party endpoint security solution, it is more challenging; if I am using Trend Micro production endpoint protection along with other Trend Micro-related solutions such as Trend Micro XDR, it works much better, but integrating with a third-party endpoint protection tool such as Microsoft Defender is different."

    What is our primary use case?

    My main use case for Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] at Sipchem is primarily to protect the emails received from external users. I have used Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] mostly for external emails received, as we do not have any use cases for internally sent emails; sometimes we use it for blocking attachments from emails internally sent.

    What is most valuable?

    In my opinion, the best feature Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] offers is its good detection rate. When I mention the detection rate, I am referring to the amount of spam and malware it detects.

    I would add that the user reporting is great with Trend Micro Email Security [EOL], and we do not have any problems with user reporting; it is easier to receive the blocked emails from the users and to review and release them from the quarantine.

    Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] has positively impacted my organization as the digital user experience is good. The user experience has improved, and we saw fewer incidents.

    What needs improvement?

    I have considered how Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] can be improved. The integration within Trend Micro environment is great, but if I want to integrate Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] with a third-party endpoint security solution, it is more challenging; if I am using Trend Micro production endpoint protection along with other Trend Micro-related solutions such as Trend Micro XDR, it works much better, but integrating with a third-party endpoint protection tool such as Microsoft Defender is different.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] for about four years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] is stable, and I have experienced no downtime or any reliability issues.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] has good scalability and can handle growth easily if my organization expands.

    How are customer service and support?

    The customer support for Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] was great; I did not experience any issues with the support.

    Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

    We did not use a different solution before Trend Micro Email Security [EOL].

    What was our ROI?

    I have not seen a return on investment with Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] as it is not covered in my job role; I only do administration.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    My experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing was limited, as it was not done by me, but someone else is responsible for the purchase.

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    Before choosing Trend Micro Email Security [EOL], we evaluated Barracuda, Cloud Email Security, and Mimecast.

    What other advice do I have?

    I would suggest Trend Micro Email Security [EOL] to others looking into using it, but if they want a better result, they need to buy the whole Trend Micro suite. I gave this review a rating of 9.

    Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

    Detection effectiveness and centralized management streamline threat response
    Pros and Cons
    • "Trend Vision One has helped to reduce my time to detect and respond to threats; it was our gateway for almost 12 years."
    • "It was crucial because if remediation can be done in one or two clicks, in Trend, we have to do at least eight clicks to achieve the same result."

    What is our primary use case?

    We used Trend Micro Email Security for 12 years, and then we wanted to move with the technology where we can implement AI or Artificial Intelligence in the email protection.

    What is most valuable?

    I like that the detection of Trend Micro Email Security is good, but the remediation part is a bit tricky. There are more steps to be followed compared to other products, making navigation between the options a bit cumbersome.

    From an admin perspective, centralized management was important to me from a troubleshooting perspective, so that we don't spend much time navigating. It was crucial because if remediation can be done in one or two clicks, in Trend, we have to do at least eight clicks to achieve the same result.

    Trend Vision One has helped to reduce my time to detect and respond to threats; it was our gateway for almost 12 years.

    It has also helped my organization reduce noise from false positives.

    What needs improvement?

    They need to improve the dashboard in the future to make the product more effective.

    How are customer service and support?

    My experience with the technical support by Trend Micro was good; they were very responsive and helpful whenever we needed assistance, meaning customer support was very good with them.

    The area of support that requires improvement would be the response time, but their marketing team was good.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    Which other solutions did I evaluate?

    The reason for deciding to switch from Trend Micro was the dashboard which they have; it was good, but not as good as the ones from Tessian, Check Point, or Mimecast.

    The other products such as Mimecast, Check Point, and Proofpoint provided centralized visibility and management across protection layers, which is why they had the upper hand.

    Proofpoint has a very large threat database because they are the leaders in the email security providers. They have a much larger threat database, and their dashboard is very good.

    What other advice do I have?

    There's not much difference between similar products; almost everything is the same, but the dashboard was a very deciding factor for us.

    I would definitely recommend this product to others, but it's up to them because every product is the same; it's only the feature that is displayed to the user, such as how fast you can identify the threat and remediate it, which makes a difference, so basically, every product shows the threat and the remediation steps, but it's the time saved while going between options that really matters.

    I would rate the Trend Micro Email Security product an eight overall. I rate the product as I did because it served its purpose for almost 12 years for us, and luckily, there was never any incident due to Trend.

    Provides ATP (Advanced Threat Protection) feature which utilizes machine learning algorithm
    Pros and Cons
    • "The solution's most valuable feature is ATP (Advanced Threat Protection), which utilizes the machine learning algorithm."
    • "The solution's interface, which we get from an admin perspective, sometimes gets confusing."

    What is most valuable?

    The solution's most valuable feature is ATP (Advanced Threat Protection), which utilizes the machine learning algorithm. We analyze the behavior and pattern analysis and come up with a case. When events and incidents come, the solution suppresses the amount of events and alerts that come from it.

    The solution has a robust system that evaluates itself for false positive alarms. We get 1,00,000 events daily, and the tool suppresses about 5,000 to 6,000 of them with its intelligent machine learning system.

    The solution's detect and block feature is very good and determines where to detect and where to block. For example, the tool will detect if someone is trying to send a huge file, breaching the policy. However, if someone tries to send you a confidential file repeatedly, it will block automatically based on the machine learning patterns.

    What needs improvement?

    The solution's interface, which we get from an admin perspective, sometimes gets confusing. I would like it more if the flow of the feature were good. If you continuously work on the tool, you will become well-versed in the features, but new users will take some time to become familiar with it.

    For how long have I used the solution?

    I have been using Trend Micro Email Security for two years.

    What do I think about the stability of the solution?

    I rate the solution’s stability ten out of ten.

    What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

    Trend Micro Email Security is suitable for all company sizes.

    I rate the solution ten out of ten for scalability.

    How are customer service and support?

    Sometimes, it's very hard to get support from Trend Micro.

    How would you rate customer service and support?

    Neutral

    How was the initial setup?

    Sometimes, the solution's implementation takes a lot of time, and it is not fast. The solution's deployment takes more than a few hours.

    On a scale from one to ten, where one is difficult and ten is easy, I rate the solution's initial setup a seven out of ten.

    What was our ROI?

    Trend Micro Email Security is a cost-saving solution because it has many features that reduce the integration of other tools.

    What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

    The solution's pricing totally depends on the organization's bandwidth. The solution is cheap for some and expensive for others. I would say Trend Micro Email Security is neither cheap nor expensive. The solution's pricing is very optimum, given its quality, features, and stability.

    On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten.

    What other advice do I have?

    I assess whether their controls are in place and whether the tool works perfectly fine. I also assess the policies configured for phishing and spam prevention, the aspects we have incorporated in terms of advanced threat protection (ATP), the main feature of this Trend Micro Email Security, and the utilization of a preexisting machine learning algorithm.

    Suppose someone continuously tries to send some data. In that case, I assess how the tool analyzes the user pattern behavior, whether it is blocking or not, and what configurations are configured in the tool's policy.
