TrendAI Vision One Reviews

Our use cases are essentially all the classic defense mechanisms that are used to protect devices, secure emails, and ensure that we don’t pull in anything harmful. We also monitor Internet and Intranet traffic to detect abnormal behavior and address it. This has helped us in many situations where we’ve faced external attacks, which then usually try to go back out. I always say that they try to drill through the wall and get back out, and in that way, we’ve been able to recognize when someone has gained access to our devices.

We operate in 60 countries with 4,000 to 4,500 employees, of which nearly 2,000 are based in Frankfurt. All of the end devices of our colleagues are under IT security monitoring. The Deep Discovery Inspector is implemented at three global locations: one in Europe, one in Asia, and one in the USA. This allows us to detect any issues early on, and with network segmentation, we can minimize potential damage in case of an incident.

The biggest security concerns in our industry are not really industry-specific but are intrusions. Identity theft is a challenge and then there are issues where people are manipulated into making money transfers to what seem like customer accounts that don’t actually exist.

Another is the classic attack, where ransomware is used to infiltrate systems and gain access through encryption and similar methods.

Additionally, we also have the issue of IP protection.

Trend Vision One has significantly improved our company because we can now track and see how many attacks we have. Since we’ve implemented it, we haven’t had any major attacks that have successfully entered the company. So, we know the defense mechanism is working.

In terms of our ability to manage risks, we already had the stances for risk management in place, from our side, from a purely conceptual standpoint. Through a solution like this, we always want to get a more concrete approach for the operational side. We aim to identify and assess risks and then determine the measures we can take to mitigate those risks. That’s where Trend Micro is very helpful.

Trend Vision One has significantly helped reduce our time to detect and respond to threats.

In terms of whether or not Trend Vision One has helped my organization reduce noise from false positives, it’s always a matter of perspective in terms of whether or not the number of alarms has truly been reduced or if they were false alarms. We rolled out the solution across the company, and as a result, we now monitor more devices and have a more comprehensive view of security. Therefore, the number of alarms and false alarms has certainly increased, because we are now looking at all devices. Previously, we didn’t monitor them, so we didn’t notice them.

We have always seen alarms and false alarms. However, we have incorporated mechanisms to identify where the false alarms are coming from, and we continuously refine the system. Sometimes, activities in the internal IT administrative area trigger alarms that are not actual threats, and we continuously adjust and refine those rules to reduce false alarms. We didn’t have a solution in place before to compare whether or not it has reduced false positives. The mechanisms we have now allow us to assess both alarms and false alarms in detail and, in the case of false alarms, to trace where they come from and implement rules to prevent them from happening again.

Trend Vision One has definitely reduced my organization's cyber risk. We took a holistic view of all devices, became more aware of IT security risks from the outset, and then integrated all devices into that view. In the incidents we encountered at the beginning, as we increasingly implemented and observed this solution, a clear path was outlined on how to address and resolve these issues.

We implement the sensors globally from the angle that we are, in fact, global and operate worldwide. The importance lies in the fact that we know attacks can happen from anywhere, and therefore we decided to implement this as a standard solution within our company, The Samson Group. The Samson Group itself has 60 legal entities worldwide, and from our side, this is more of a governance requirement, meaning it must be used to protect the entire organization.

We have found the Deep Discovery Inspector that is in place exceptionally valuable. It has consistently helped us identify areas where issues are happening and where there have been small vulnerabilities in the network that could lead to issues. This happens when, at some point, an unauthorized device—one that shouldn’t be in the network—somehow gains access. This is certainly one of Trend Micro's standout features, as it has provided us with insight into what is happening in our network, which has prevented us from facing significant damage.

We have a positive impression of Trend Vision One's ability to provide us with centralized visibility and management across protection layers. The impression is definitely positive for us. That’s also why we decided to extend the contracts. It’s a very mature solution that is well-understood and user-friendly for people working in this field.

Trend Micro helps us consolidate security vendors because we are now establishing this as standard software for the company. We only work with one solution provider, which is part of the consolidation. When selecting the solutions, we carefully considered what was important to us and where issues occurred. For example, we were particularly pleased that the base and system come from a Japanese company, meaning we don’t have to put ourselves in the hands of Russian or American companies to make this happen.

We use the CREM features and from our perspective, it is very helpful because it provides a supportive function. In situations where we notice something, we also have a very direct line to the team.

When it comes to having AI, from a high-level perspective, I don’t really care how it’s done in terms of the solution. It's great if AI is used because we measure based on the results we achieve. It must meet the requirements for performance and speed. Today, AI is the tool of choice to achieve the necessary speed and performance. But it’s not about the fact that AI is involved; it’s about the fact that, at the end of the day, a fast and reliable solution has been created.

We still have devices that are not traditional IT equipment but rather fall under the category of Operational Technology (OT) devices. There is increasingly a blending of the traditional OT world, which requires a specific focus, as OT devices often don't use standard Ethernet protocols and similar technologies. These are areas where I believe more can be done by Trend Vision One.

Taking it a step further, we also produce items that include IT elements, which are then used by customers. It would be great if there were Trend Micro products that could enhance the security of these devices, either as part of our product or in some other way integrated into our offering. But that's a different approach. At the moment, we use Trend Micro to protect our own company and our internal networks, but expanding this to our customer-facing products is an idea for the future.

We have been using Trend Micro for a long time, since 2020. We started in 2019 and signed our first Trend Vision One contract in 2020.

The stability is very high. We rarely encounter stability issues. When we do have issues, we typically find that they originate from our side, usually because certain information couldn't be provided by the server.

Compared to other companies, we're not huge, but during the rollout and expansion, we found that it scales easily. We haven't encountered any issues with scaling effects or anything like that.

Their technical support is excellent because we continuously see that when an issue arises, direct communication is sought. The ability to act quickly and be in direct communication is very important to us. It's not just about high-level support with the chatbot; rather, when an issue occurs, we have the experts on-site and ready to respond swiftly, which is crucial. In such situations, you need to act quickly without wasting time on what should happen next.

We have used a lot of products. Over the past few years, we have been consolidating into a single corporation and replacing other solutions with the corporate mandate of Trend Micro. The reason is for efficiency reasons, among others. By using the same solution across the entire company, we can manage and maintain it centrally, ensuring uniform behavior without having to deal with individual solutions for each part of the organization.

I was involved in the setup in terms of managing the role and function, but not from a technical standpoint.

My colleagues reported that it is a very well-designed software. We’ve experienced other solutions where we’ve worked on software for a long time, and it didn’t go as smoothly. I haven’t heard any complaints, so the setup must have been good.

We took a risk-based approach to implement this. We started rolling it out in some large manufacturing companies, where the potential damage in case of an incident would be the greatest. From there, we moved to the smaller legal entities, such as just sales offices or similar, so from large to small.

We have a relatively small team in the global function with three people who worked on it. We also have a packaging team and similar resources when it comes to creating installation scripts for end devices.

In terms of maintenance, we have purchased Trend Vision One as part of a SaaS solution. This includes updates and ongoing support, such as the provision of virus signatures, so we don't have dedicated staff specifically for maintenance. We do have designated contacts around the world dedicated to handling alarms and events. This is an additional responsibility for the IT team members after their training, so I can't give you a precise number of people involved. These activities are integrated into the existing IT staff who manage them alongside their regular tasks.

We have seen a return on investment fundamentally more qualitatively, proportionally, and quantitatively. We haven't done a strict ROI calculation. We know it's in place to counter potential damage, but it's hard to quantify potential damage in an ROI calculation. On the other hand, we had two incidents during the rollout for the global company. Thankfully, we also had cyber security insurance, and the insurance covered the incidents because, through Trend Micro and the implementation of the solution, along with the data it provided, we were able to demonstrate what had happened. Without this, we certainly wouldn’t have received the insurance payout.

Of course, we'd prefer for it to be free. Security has its price. Regarding the prices we've experienced, we consider Trend Micro to be competitive. However, we sometimes wish for a higher discount based on more usage as the company grows.

We looked around at other solutions. When we started evaluating options in 2019, we explored the typical solution portfolios available at the time. We considered several options, and then, based on different factors, we decided on a company operating out of Japan, rather than an extension of an American company. I don't quite remember all the details, but at the time, there was also a Russian solution that was quite popular in the European market, which we decided not to pursue further.

The main differences between these products and Trend Vision One were the functionality and the overall environment. We wanted a truly independent solution. From the perspective of German and European data protection laws, it was a matter of weighing where we could place the most trust and where we would see those principles reflected in the implementation.

My advice would be that one should really take the time to think carefully about what they want and need, and particularly engage in conversations with colleagues to find the right solution. One could say that to perform Deep Discovery Inspector on network traffic, more nodes could be added but at some point, the cost-benefit effect becomes minimal.

We always felt that Trend Micro provided us with very good advice, suggesting that more than three nodes in a global context weren't necessary. Any additional nodes would only slightly improve performance, making it not worthwhile. It's important to listen to the Trend Micro team and communicate openly. What's key is that you have to think about your scenarios and risks in advance—this is something they can't take off your hands. For example, network segmentation, which isn't part of Trend Micro's offering, is a mechanism we also bring in. It's important to work hand in hand, and there needs to be a lot of dialogue at this stage.

As a Trend Micro partner and service provider, we are a TrendAI Vision One company. I am using TrendAI Vision One sensors on endpoints and email. My customers use TrendAI Vision One platform for consolidated security across hybrid environments because they can integrate other devices through the service gateway.

The features I find most valuable in TrendAI Vision One include several powerful add-ons, such as Cyber Risk Exposure Management and threat-based segregation that can be applied on the telemetry data lake automatically, as well as the ability to query the endpoints.

TrendAI Vision One platform's ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers is quite helpful. I can see all across without silos, and telemetry from endpoints, servers, web traffic, NDR, and email all get combined and correlated under a single pane.

TrendAI Vision One has helped reduce time to detect and time to respond to threats, which is the promise I often see happening.

The importance of having AI built into TrendAI Vision One is that natively, some of the detections are hard to decipher, so that helps considerably. For junior analysts, it is beneficial, as they can ask the Trend AI component to explain it in plain English.

I do see room for improvement and weaknesses in TrendAI Vision One. Currently, most of the security literature and other resources refer to protecting endpoints that are Microsoft-centric, so better telemetry of Microsoft endpoints and the ability to query them natively for registry and other information would be a significant help.

The additional features I would like to see in the future to make TrendAI Vision One closer to a perfect score are those that simplify operations. The AI could help cut down unnecessary information and decisions that need to be made early on, allowing analysts to focus on what really matters.

I have been working with TrendAI Vision One for approximately four years.

I would rate the technical support by TrendAI at around eight to eight point five. They are responsive and effective.

The initial setup of TrendAI Vision One is straightforward. Right out of the box, we are accustomed to it, and customers who are using it find it very easy to set up. The out-of-box settings are available, and all they need to do is connect the right telemetry.

The effectiveness of TrendAI Vision One in helping reduce noise from false positives can vary depending on how the customer uses it. Sometimes it requires fine-tuning to reduce false positives. I would rate this review at eight point five overall.

TrendAI Vision One is used primarily in endpoint security, email security, mobile security, cyber risk exposure management, and  XDR.

For mobile security, TrendAI Vision One is used for mobile threat detection as an MTD solution, and it allows enrollment of both BYOD devices and company-owned devices while providing protection for mobile devices. The solution supports Android, iOS, and similar platforms.

My main use case for TrendAI Vision One is endpoint security, and I am also familiar with mobile security. TrendAI Vision One functions as a full-fledged next-generational antivirus solution for users, and it prevents malware, viruses, and similar threats. The solution has many machine learning features as well.

The best feature in my experience with TrendAI Vision One is that when implementing endpoint security and email security for an organization, there is no need to use multiple consoles. With TrendAI Vision One, a single console provides access to all these solutions, making it a comprehensive platform that includes all of the solutions. This consolidated approach is the main usefulness for users.

TrendAI Vision One can integrate with third-party solutions as well. Regarding usability, I credit TrendAI Vision One since it uses a credit-based model. Additionally, the licensing for TrendAI Vision One is very flexible for users and organizations.

TrendAI Vision One is a full-fledged platform for combining multiple solutions, making it easy for administrators to navigate and configure the console. It provides comprehensive security for devices and users, and the flexible licensing is very useful for organizations.

Regarding the platform's ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers, the centralized visibility is really helpful for administrators to configure settings without having to navigate multiple consoles. This streamlines issue resolution and ensures that protection is covered from multiple aspects within the same console.

TrendAI Vision One has helped consolidate the use of security vendors and reduced silos significantly.

TrendAI Vision One has recently added updates and new features, which can be a bit confusing. However, those features are helpful but not organized clearly. When an administrator logs into the console, it can be difficult to find some features because of the organization.

Regarding documentation improvements for TrendAI Vision One, it would be easier with the TrendAI companion. Most of the documentation and answers can be found, but it would be helpful if the company could provide more data sheets or whitepapers as well as configuration support.

Additional improvements needed for TrendAI Vision One include issues where the console sometimes indicates that services are not available. I believe these issues are being improved, but they do not constantly display as expected.

I have been using TrendAI Vision One for more than one and a half years.

TrendAI Vision One provides more security for users regarding detections and security incidents, such as warnings on unsecured websites and detecting viruses. The solution has really reduced the number of detections over time while providing full protection for users.

The top security challenge in the industry is user awareness since users are often unaware of the dangers posed by certain applications and websites. TrendAI Vision One helps address this issue by providing user awareness training, such as phishing campaigns that inform users to avoid threats.

My main advice for others considering TrendAI Vision One is that it provides both basic and advanced protection for every user, while the licensing is very flexible compared to other solutions. With TrendAI Vision One, most features are included in basic licensing, unlike other solutions that require payment for simple features.

TrendAI Vision One is a great solution for users requiring advanced protection. Over the past 20 years, it has provided as many features as possible for every user, so I can confidently recommend it for organizations. I would rate this solution an 8 out of 10.

My use case for TrendAI Vision One is more focused on the XDR.

In my opinion, the best features of TrendAI Vision One are the UI itself, which is very user-friendly. I consider that to be the most intricate part about TrendAI Vision One compared to other XDR platforms.

I use the sensors in TrendAI Vision One, and they are critical for our network coverage. They help us considerably because we are using TrendAI Vision One in the corporate environment, where people come and go. The sensors are very helpful because when you want to release the sensor on a laptop that is not used, you can simply release it.

My impressions of TrendAI Vision One's ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers are very interesting because other solutions do not actually provide a centralized platform to view everything. Trend Micro introduced TrendAI Vision One, which allows all that to be in one central console, enabling you to have all features enabled or disabled based on credits.

TrendAI Vision One helps consolidate my use of security vendors and reduces silos. Currently, we are mainly using the XDR function, but we are also looking at the sandboxing feature. It is a good platform because in our environment, the engineering team uses the XDR function while the Digital Forensic & Incident Response team uses the sandboxing analysis functions, allowing two cross-entities to use one platform for their own tools.

In TrendAI Vision One, an area that has room for improvement is the DLP policy governance, particularly around data leakage protection. I believe the main focus is currently on thumb drives and external drives, but in older environments, we also use CDs and DVDs for read and write functions.

I have been using TrendAI Vision One for approximately eight months in totality.

I would rate the stability of TrendAI Vision One as very stable, giving it a nine out of ten.

In terms of scalability, I would say TrendAI Vision One is a ten out of ten because it is based on credits.

From one to ten, I would rate the technical support that TrendAI Vision One provides as a nine because we are subscribed to premium support.

Positive

I found the deployment of TrendAI Vision One to be very easy; I was very surprised because we had a seamless migration from Apex One.

It took less than a day to implement TrendAI Vision One; in fact, it was completed in just one day.

In my organization, we have a team of five engineers and close to three hundred endpoints using TrendAI Vision One.

I estimate that I have seen approximately fifteen to twenty percent return on investment from using TrendAI Vision One.

Regarding the pricing of TrendAI Vision One, I think it is on the costlier side compared to other solutions due to the functions they offer, but in totality, it is cost-efficient.

I have tested other vendors for endpoint solutions, including Kaspersky and Symantec.

The top security challenges in my industry include finding people who can operate TrendAI Vision One as an operator, and actually, TrendAI Vision One's user interface is so user-friendly that it takes maybe an experienced cybersecurity engineer about two to three weeks to get used to it.

The solution does not require any maintenance in terms of patching because we are on SaaS; we have a proxy, so there is no maintenance for it.

TrendAI Vision One has reduced my time to detect and respond to threats by approximately forty to fifty percent.

It has reduced noise from false positives by approximately twenty percent, which has saved me a significant amount of time.

By switching to TrendAI Vision One, I have reduced my risk by approximately eighty percent.

I would recommend TrendAI Vision One to other users because it is user-friendly and offers good support. I would rate this review a nine out of ten.

My use case for the solution is primarily for EDR purposes, but we are also starting to use the CREM.  This technology allows us to see our endpoints within seconds to ensure they are NIST 800-83 compliant.  This technology is critical in today's world as there are many customers requiring this now.  

We have used advanced threat intelligence, and we continue to do so. There is a way to run a threat query to find where a certain item is located. For example, Quick Assist from Microsoft was used a while back to gain access to our environment, and we didn't know it at the time. Of course, we've since locked that down. Now, we can also use that query we created to monitor if someone tries to use it again. I recently saw an attempt to use it, but they couldn't succeed because we have it blocked. It's really good to know these things, and without the available technology, we wouldn’t be able to do this.

Trend Vision One's automation capabilities have helped, for example, with atypical travel. We have a playbook set up. When Trend Vision One finds someone signed on in the United States and then catches them signed on in Africa, it will immediately run a playbook. This will disable that profile and prohibit that person from logging in. That is huge when you consider the possibilities of what could happen if we didn’t have that feature.

Our response time is greatly enhanced because of all the features that Trend Vision One offers. It simplifies things and makes it clear what’s going on inside our environment. With just a click of a button, we can get the information we need. We can mitigate issues very quickly using Trend Vision One. We can isolate endpoints, effectively removing them from the network while still accessing them through the Trend Vision One console. Additionally, we can run malware scans instantly on computers, and there are so many features available that it can be hard to keep track of them sometimes. Overall, Trend Vision One has really helped a lot. When it comes to time savings, I would estimate that our response time has improved by at least 40%.

Using this solution has benefited our business greatly. It keeps me informed of everything happening in our environment. We have site admins at every location with specific admin authority to do certain things. Trend Vision One monitors that, allowing me to validate actions taken by admins. Trend Vision One caught various incidents, and it gives me a clear understanding of our environment and its activities, with quick searches and deeper capabilities.

With Trend Vision One, my favorite feature is the app they provide. You can turn on different features and notifications. The other night I was sitting at supper when the app went off, and I got an alert that was very strange. It turned out to be an event, and we got our cyber team together to mitigate the issue with Trend's IR Teams help, preventing any major problems. That app is a lifesaver.

The dashboard provides extensive information. It gives detailed information regarding endpoints and servers, tracking everything. You can search for things and run threat analysis. There are many features within there, and it's difficult to pinpoint one because all the features work very effectively together.

The centralized management feature contributes to faster decision-making within our security operations, greatly enhancing our response time. With all the features that Trend Vision One offers, it simplifies things. It clarifies what's going on inside your environment; with a click of a button, you can see what's happening and mitigate very fast.

In Trend Vision One, there is always room for improvement. The console is well done, but there might be a bit of improvement needed with the app's capabilities. I know they are constantly working on it, and they have regular Webinars "What's New In Trend Vision One" to share updates and enhancements that are taking place.  

Trend also allows its VIP customers to pretest new features or products and enables us to give feedback on those we test.  This is an incredible benefit to Trend's VIP program.  I do not know of any other product like Trend Micro.

I've been using this solution for quite a while. It was about eight years ago when our company had Trend implemented at every location. We have eleven locations overall. In my opinion, it wasn't managed properly; the situation was quite poor. There were many updates that were needed. I approached management and expressed my desire to take over the project. I said, "I want this. I will do it, fix it, and make it work." Management agreed and gave me the responsibility.

What I did next was take all the servers, fix and upgrade them, and prepare them for migration to one on-site server. After that, we decided to move to the cloud. I gathered everything together and worked with Trend to get all of our endpoints and servers transitioned to the cloud. It's been an ongoing process with Trend, as there is always something that needs to be done.

I rate the stability of Trend Vision One as a ten out of ten.

I would rate the scalability of Trend Vision One as nine out of ten.

It is really good. They even have a feedback system to report suggestions or problems, which are addressed promptly. We also benefit from 24/7 monitoring, and we have direct contacts for technical issues and ongoing weekly support calls.

I would rate them a nine out of ten. There's always room for improvement. Five years ago, I would rate it as a five, but support has significantly improved in availability, responsiveness, and keeping me updated.

We purchased the software through CDW, which used to be called Sirius. That's how we acquired it. I have several contacts at Trend that I can reach out to directly, as I have been working with them for about eight years. They have helped me implement the software directly. I worked with Trend through the entire process. They have a learning platform with videos that break down each product. They show you step-by-step how to implement or use each solution. Trend Micro Service One, monitors our corporation, 24/7/365 support service. We can contact a representative, and they’ll get back to us if we encounter any problems or technical issues in our environment. They’ll even join us on a conference call to help. We also have a weekly call with them, where we can ask questions, and they guide us to the right resources and documentation. It’s really an incredible support package.

It wasn’t complicated to deploy. Now they offer a product called Server and Workload Protection, which is tailored specifically for servers. We're in the process of upgrading our servers to use this product. It’s more focused on server-specific security and functionality. When I used it about five years ago, the process was quite complex. I had problems and issues. Over the years, we moved away from the product — about four years ago — and we’re only now starting to return to it. The changes made in those four years are incredible. It’s like night and day. What used to take me days to deploy to one server now takes about half an hour. Trend is constantly updating, enhancing, and improving how things are done. It’s a continually evolving package. They’re even integrating AI capabilities now, which will greatly enhance what Trend products can do.

The capability of Trend Vision One to be deployed both on-premises and in the cloud has been extremely beneficial to my organization in terms of flexibility and scalability. Being in the cloud eliminates the need for on-prem servers. With several divisions, managing all of those on-prem servers was a nightmare. It was not an option, so I migrated to the cloud, which is a one-stop shop. We have our entire corporation in the cloud, making it easy to see everything without logging onto multiple servers; this saves a lot of time.

The solution itself does require some maintenance. The updates are automatic, so we don't need to manually check. However, some endpoints have to be maintained more carefully, ensuring they are fully updated because missing MS updates can prevent Trend Vision One from working correctly. It's good practice to keep everything up to date, which is crucial for managing over 1,000 endpoints and 200 servers. Trend Vision One allows us to see all software on a person's computer, even outdated web browsers, and it flags potential threats, which is an incredible feature.

In my organization, approximately three people work with Trend Vision One.

In terms of return on investment, I've seen a 100% return. It has paid for itself. Our company went through a ransomware event, and if Trend Vision One's IR Team had not stopped it, that could've closed the company's doors.

Trend Vision One is definitely cost-efficient compared to other solutions. I have seen others that are double or triple the price. I'm surprised Trend Vision One hasn't raised their prices, considering everything offered. Depending on the features selected, cost varies, but overall, endpoint and server security is very reasonable.

Comparing Trend Vision One to other solutions, I've seen other vendors with complicated software requiring extensive training to understand. If software is that hard to learn, I don't find it to be a viable solution. Learning takes weeks or months, potentially creating holes in security instead of securing it.

I would absolutely recommend Trend Vision One to other users because it's cost-efficient and it just works. It tells you what you need to do, alerts you of threats, and informs you about software needing updates. They have an IR team that is exceptional and works on the mitigation and remediation until all issues have been resolved!  Over time, it becomes easier to understand, especially moving from on-prem to cloud deployment; there's no comparison. 

I would rate the solution overall as a ten out of ten.

Our usual use cases for Trend Vision One involve the detection of any kind of threat. We are getting alerts from the workbench on Trend Vision One and we perform threat hunting. If there are false positives, we close them, and in the case of true positives, we take action toward remediation and closure. Predominantly, we use it for threat management.

Trend Vision One is an integrated platform where I can get all the information about all the endpoints, whether it be a server, laptop, or desktop. Everything is integrated, allowing me to see everything within one console; that is one of the greatest advantages of Trend Vision One.

In terms of centralized visibility and management across protection layers, Trend Vision One provides protection across all attack vectors. It allows us to manage threats in all phases. We can even perform forensics where we can collect suspicious files remotely to submit to Trend Micro.

Trend Vision One helps reduce the time to detect and respond to threats. We get alerts in real-time. We receive notifications as email alerts, as well as alerts in the console. Through the workbench, we can monitor the console 24/7 with real-time information; there is not much delay.

Trend Vision One has helped us reduce noise from false positives, thanks to the SOAR functionality. We are able to configure automatic responses, and in case any false positives are identified, the Vision One console takes care of them automatically. This helps us reduce a lot of false positives.

Trend Vision One has indeed helped consolidate our use of security vendors and reduce silos. We sometimes get threat notifications from other vendor products, such as Microsoft Cloud App Security, which identifies threats, and we can trace similar traffic from the endpoints in Vision One. This correlation adds more value for our clients.

The most valuable feature of Trend Vision One is response management; when there is a malware issue, we need to isolate the endpoint, which I can do through response management. I can isolate an endpoint, restore the endpoint, and run manual malware scans, which will be very useful when performing malware remediation actions.

In future releases of Trend Vision One, I would like to see improvements regarding role-based access control, as it is important to ensure that when granting admin access to a person, their visibility is limited to only their respective markets. For example, while creating roles for countries like France, Germany, and Italy, they should only manage their own endpoints to maintain privacy and security.

I have been working with Trend Vision One for more than 2 years.

I have not encountered any issues with the stability of Trend Vision One. There have been no problems at all.

Stability is critically important for us with Trend Vision One; it is very stable, providing continuous 24/7 support, and we do not face challenges in accessing services from Trend Micro.

Regarding scalability, Trend Vision One accommodates many endpoints without any challenges, allowing easy expansion of our portfolio.

I would rate the technical support for Trend Vision One a perfect 10 out of 10, as Trend Micro supported us throughout the transition from on-prem servers or other vendors, providing top-notch service at all times.

Positive

Before using Trend Vision One, we were utilizing McAfee, and some of our clients were using Symantec. Currently, most clients have transitioned to Trend Micro.

The decision to switch from McAfee was driven by factors such as high costs and the global presence of organizations. Trend Micro has a more robust global reach and its pricing is very competitive compared to McAfee.

The initial setup of Trend Vision One is not complex; it is straightforward. We had the options in the Trend Vision One console, and we received training from Trend Micro-certified administrators. We had knowledge transfer sessions, and later, we successfully migrated our products from on-prem servers to the cloud. 

We have been using the product for more than 7 to 8 years, and we did not face any challenges during this migration.

We have seen a return on investment with Trend Vision One, primarily in terms of having more confidence in addressing any kind of suspicious activities. Any such activities will be notified to us, allowing us to take action. The return on investment is apparent in managing the endpoints and addressing suspicious activity that might otherwise go unnoticed.

It has saved about 25% to 30% of our time. The risk has been reduced by more than 25% after switching to Trend Vision One.

Its price is very decent. It suits our requirements.

I did evaluate other options, including Microsoft Sentinel, but ultimately, most vendors choose Trend Vision One.

The factors that led us to choose Trend Vision One over Microsoft or other options include costs, and since we already have Microsoft for other protections (like M365 security protection), we opted for protection with a different vendor, rather than the same vendor.

I would rate Trend Vision One a nine out of ten.

My use cases for Trend Vision One are typically reactive, letting it scan and monitor our environment, and we typically respond quickly to any workbenches that come up. 

We also try to adapt to the Cyber Risk Index or the security score, keeping that at the lowest amount possible on a weekly or bi-weekly basis as we push out updates and do maintenance.

My favorite features in Trend Vision One include the Cyber Risk Index, which breaks down various pieces of info into one easily digestible score. I appreciate the workbenches. They provide a visual of how they operate for the most part, and I value the in-depth details they offer since we can mostly operate off of that, giving us enough info to crunch and figure out what's happening.

While it's not an actual feature of the application, I appreciate the clinics and seminars that Trend provides, as I went to one last year that got me from zero to beginner, and I hope to advance to intermediate with another seminar series this year.

Trend Vision One helps reduce my mean time to detect and respond to threats as without it, we would be scrambling and confused with not much information to go off of for threat hunting. I'm not sure what we were using previously. As long as I've been here, it's been Trend Vision One, and we're very happy with it. We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider since we think it's a very good product, and we appreciate the speed and breadth of data we receive from it.

I sometimes see noise from false positives with Trend Vision One. One clear instance involved the AI deep fake feature, which would throw up false positives whenever someone had a Teams meeting with a blurred background, leading us to turn it off as it activated for every meeting. Additionally, there were minor false positives throughout the year related to Microsoft update files and certain DLLs, however, they don't clutter Trend Vision One much and have essentially gone away in recent months.

I am very happy with Trend Vision One's platform ability to provide centralized visibility and management across protection layers. The platform extends into various categories, offering oversight over email and even flagging suspicious activities that occur on a server, despite not having a Trend Vision One agent on it. For instance, an admin setting up remote access on that server was flagged as suspicious, and I appreciate the reach that Trend Vision One has across different scattered categories it monitors.

In terms of improving Trend Vision One, it might sound silly, yet it seems notoriously uncooperative with middle clicks and opening sections in new tabs. I'm a big tab browser, and it feels hitting a brick wall when I have to refresh in a new tab or make a copy of a tab to move forward. If we can enable middle clicks to open sections in new tabs, it would greatly benefit me personally.

I've been using Trend Vision One for a few months, approximately eight to ten months at this point.

Regarding stability, I don't think Trend Vision One has ever caused any lagging, crashing, or downtime. There was one situation where we may have misconfigured something, forgetting a checkbox, and Trend Vision One's scheduled scans might have used some CPU resources, however, that's on our end. Besides that, Trend Vision One works exactly as intended and has never hindered our operations, feeling more a collaborator than a roadblock.

I don't think I've encountered any issues with scalability; we're growing steadily, and I believe Trend Vision One can keep up with our demand. Our company has about 200 employees in Canada, and I can foresee that if we doubled in size, Trend Vision One would accommodate that very easily.

I have contacted the technical support before. We're very happy with the technical support from Trend Vision One, feeling we have our own dedicated technician who knows the entire suite of applications. They are very intelligent and responsive, and as we submit feature requests, they seem to make it into the actual list of features in Trend Vision One, so we maintain a good relationship with their technical support and development teams.

Positive

I'm not sure what we were using previously. As long as I've been here, it's been Trend Vision One, and we're very happy with it. We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider as we consider it a very good product.

The experience of first using Trend Vision One is really difficult due to the steep learning curve. Thankfully, I attended a Trend Vision One seminar that got me from zero to beginner, as without that, it involves a lot of guesswork with little grounding to go off of. I really recommend their seminars and tutorials.

I do not know much about the pricing of Trend Vision One. My understanding is it's expensive. We pay for it anyway, and there's always sticker shock. Still, we feel it's necessary as this product covers all our needs.

We're hesitant to shop around for any other provider. Trend Vision One is a very good product, and we appreciate the speed and breadth of data we receive from it.

I'm not sure if I use the cyber risk exposure management capabilities. Trend Vision One requires very little maintenance on my end, mostly just keeping up with refreshing the license, which is about all I hear related to Trend Vision One maintenance.

Some top security challenges in my industry include securing anything exposed to the internet, especially since we were previously hit with ransomware. The ability of Trend Vision One to detect and cut off threats early, clean up files before they execute, and address phishing emails helps us significantly. We also have their email and collaborative security, which is crucial along with having zero-day protections to receive early warnings of threats, allowing us to act immediately outside our maintenance windows.

I'm not completely sure where we use the Trend Vision One sensors, as I didn't set them up. However, we do have a DDI that we paid a lot for, which is one of our biggest data sources and populates much of the information in Trend Vision One. We also have a network sensor at our different location in the United States, which is a temporary holdover until we can upgrade to something more robust.

It's not critical for my company that Trend Vision One has AI built into its platform in terms of needing a language model to explain things, however, AI is actually critical for threat detection and behavioral analysis. That aspect of behavior monitoring and action based on behavior is very important.

Trend Vision One has helped my organization reduce its cyber risk. For instance, even prior to acquiring the DDI, the DDI's presence on our network found a threat actively in progress, and we were able to act on it, demonstrating its effectiveness from day zero.

On a scale from one to ten, I would rate Trend Vision One a nine overall.

Our use case for Trend Vision One is for our security platform. We use it for antivirus, XDR, and network telemetry purposes.

Trend Vision One helped us to consolidate our use of security vendors and reduce silos. We had three or four consoles from different products, and we consolidated them into one console with this product. 

Trend Vision One helped reduce the time to detect and respond to threats by 70% to 80%.

Trend Vision One has helped us reduce noise from false positives.

We have been using cyber risk exposure management for 2 months since upgrading in April. It helps us identify blind spots by providing more visibility and insights into our environment, making it a valuable feature. 

We use the network sensor, and its coverage is critical. With SIEM, we gain substantial insights into our environment, and having a complete 360 view is necessary in today's security world. It reduces the risk by 50%.

Having AI built into the Trend Vision One platform is important for our organization. It reduces many manual steps, resulting in more and quicker detections and advanced automation for remediation, improving efficiency by 60% to 70%. The solution aims to reduce risks and enhance detection.

I like how easy it is, and there is a single pane of glass. We have one console for everything. 

Trend Vision One provides centralized visibility and management across protection layers. It has the functionality of different products and management of a single pane of glass. We have one console for everything. As a security engineer, it's easier to check the alerts and find everything. It consolidates a lot of consoles into one, and that's what we like most about it.

Vulnerability scanning could be improved. They need to see more CVEs and scan products for known vulnerabilities, allowing for better display and review of potentially exploitable servers by hackers or through configuration settings.

We have been using Trend Vision One for approximately 18 months.

We haven't experienced any stability issues. It has proven to be stable.

The scalability of Trend Vision One is good.

I have contacted technical support from Trend Micro. The quality and speed of support are good.

Positive

It was easy. It took us one day to fully deploy Trend Vision One.

Some maintenance is required for updating agents on the servers.

The deployment involved just one person working with the vendor in one day.

Trend Vision One has reduced risks by 50%. We have reduced the response time by approximately 70%-80%.

When we have a good product such as Trend Vision One, the price is fine.

We have used Trend Micro products for many years, and we upgraded to Trend Vision One. We didn't test any alternatives, staying with what we've used for years.

I would rate Trend Vision One an eight out of ten.

I work with Trellix, Trend Micro, Fortinet, and Netrix for DLP solutions. For Netrix DLP, I use Forcepoint, and for email security, I use Barracuda.

I have been working with Trend Micro for the past six years. I started with Apex One and Worry-Free, which evolved to TrendAI Vision One. TrendAI Vision One is a collaborative XDR platform designed to bring all security solutions such as mail security, cloud security, endpoint security, and identity security together and manage them from a single console. That is the main goal of TrendAI Vision One.

From my end, I have deployed email security, endpoint security, XDR, and web security from TrendAI Vision One. We are using TrendAI Vision One with both business essentials and pro bundle.

TrendAI Vision One has two kinds of solutions for endpoint security: standard endpoint protection for desktop machines and server and workload protection for existing Linux servers, Windows servers, or even containers and workloads in the cloud where you can install agents for those containers as well. These are the deployments which we have done for endpoint security.

The detection part works well for me. The response part, including automatic containment, requires creating playbooks. Even though I create them, I have faced many threat attack scenarios where detection pops up, but the appropriate response action is not being taken.

Attack discovery and attack surface discovery are valuable features. Every organization has endpoints, and no organization will be willing to do a full discovery or testing on all those endpoints or devices. Attack discovery helps us know which endpoints we have with Trend Micro, what vulnerabilities and loopholes are available in the endpoints, and provides insights into our attack surface.

I have used the cyber risk exposure management product completely except for security awareness. I have used data security posture, identity security posture, and network security functionalities. I have not ensured cloud security yet, but we are yet to have hands-on experience with that. I have showcased these functionalities to customers and conducted many POCs for new clients covering cyber risk exposure management, XDR, email security, endpoint security, and network security. I have explained how well TrendAI Vision One captures the correct data.

The response time after detection is approximately three hours.

Visibility is good, but TrendAI Vision One can improve the response part. Compared to other vendors like SentinelOne or CrowdStrike, all of them are providing detection and response methodology. However, TrendAI Vision One provides more visibility but has limitations on the response part.

If TrendAI Vision One can improve the response time and playbooks, particularly with more customizable playbooks, it would be greatly helpful. We have raised feature requests to Trend Micro. If they have more predefined playbooks and more options for response management, it would be beneficial because that is what end users are expecting.

As a reseller, we are dealing with the pain because customers are asking why response is not being taken even though TrendAI Vision One detects suspicious files. In some cases, I follow best practices by updating playbooks at regular intervals, but that is a manual process. An automated process to take appropriate action for suspicious and malicious files would be necessary. The response part might be improved to provide better value.

I have been working with Trend Micro for the past six years.

TrendAI Vision One is stable. Before TrendAI Vision One, Trend Micro had Apex One and Worry-Free products for endpoint security that were not stable. However, after TrendAI Vision One was introduced, I do not see any stability issues.

Scalability is good. Previously, it was good because they were using a credit system where they would give credits and based on the credits we could allocate our own licenses. Right now they have removed this feature, so we are yet to do some testing on that. The credit system was effective because we had flexible licensing and scalability, and we were able to use the resources when and if it was necessary.

Two factors are important: the time to give the first response and the technical ability of the engineers. I heard that they have laid off many old employees and senior employees.

The integration part is good. They also have an AI platform built into the console which provides more details in layman's terms. When explaining an attack to management, you can communicate it to a CIO in technical terms because they are from a technical background and will understand all the details. However, when taking this to a CEO or CFO who are not technical persons with backgrounds based on industry, you should explain it in simple terms. The AI integration with TrendAI Vision One gives the details in a much simpler way in layman's understanding. That feature is good.

Neutral

The installation is easy. Even for Linux and Mac machines, it is just two or three commands.

ROI is absolutely achievable, especially with TrendAI Vision One and server TrendAI Vision One platform. Previously, they had MSVA, which was a virtual appliance that on-premises clients needed for mail security. After they came up with the cloud email security solution, many customers are feeling relief, and the latency is much better when compared to an on-premise solution.

For ROI in email security, they provide BEC, which is the best ROI for every customer. If there is an outage that occurs in Microsoft or AWS or any other cloud platform, there is an email continuity platform for emails. That is good ROI.

From a deployment perspective, it shows around fifty to sixty percent. The impact given to the business in terms of real impact is up to ten to twenty percent.

This is quite affordable. It is not that expensive.

We buy from Trend Micro. TrendAI Vision One definitely falls in the leader quadrant in Gartner, and its capabilities are good. It can be in that leader quadrant. For an endpoint security solution, managing attacks is the key thing. It is not about daily activities like what policies and functionalities are provided. These matter, but at the end of the day, if an attack is going to happen, the end user will assess the support of TrendAI Vision One and the response part of TrendAI Vision One. These two parameters are going to be assessed, and based on these two parameters, any quadrant achievement from labs like Gartner or Forrester will be based on these two parameters only.

For standard endpoint protection, if it is a detection, it is a detection. When compared to CrowdStrike, TrendAI Vision One creates much less false positives. There is no big noise on this, but that is one way to consider it. False positives do come, and it is completely based on the configuration which we do. On the initial phase of the deployment, after a month or two, we keep it in detection mode, and after that, we pursue the prevention mode so that blocking is enabled.

If the containment functionality gets automated, it would be on a better note. The response part, if improved, will be very helpful. From a deployment perspective, it shows around fifty to sixty percent.

TrendAI Vision One is fully on the cloud with no on-premise option. They tie up with multiple cloud vendors, but they provide a SaaS platform built by Trend Micro. Trend Micro itself is hosted on some AWS servers, which is what I have heard, but I do not want to comment on that.

I would rate this review an eight.

I use Trend Vision One for Total XDR and endpoint protection as an all-in-one security solution.

One of the best decisions we made was choosing Trend Vision One. It has transformed our entire security and cybersecurity landscape, providing a one-stop solution to manage everything efficiently and effectively.

One of the most valuable features is Cyber Risk Exposure Management.

There is room for improvement in leveraging AI technology to protect against emerging AI-based threats.

I have been using the solution for two years.

We previously used an outdated and inefficient Trend Micro system, which caused high security risks.

This is not a competitive price — the costs are on the higher side. However, I don’t regret it, as it can help save significantly in other areas. The only disappointing aspect is that every time new features are adopted, additional credits are required, which could push the budget over. This practice should really be reconsidered by Trend.

I also evaluated CrowdStrike as an alternate solution.

Trend Vision One is a five-star product.
