Trend Micro Deep Security

Pros: Apex One used to be OfficeScan, which has been excellent anti-malware software for many years. A business customer can install OfficeScan on a server in a domain and push installations and updates to endpoints on the network. There's not a lot of oversight required once it's installed and configured, other than to apply service packs and patches, which are released typically concurrent with OS version updates. The server takes care of the rest, ensuring the endpoints are updated with the latest malware signature files. Another neat feature: update the server software and the endpoints are updates automatically. The whole process is streamlined and really easy to manage. I also love that you can see the status of your systems from the dashboard, so you can easily tell if there is an issue and remedy it. Fortunately, the protection is excellent and issues are few and far between.

Cons: Honestly, I can't think of anything I don't like about this software. It's the easiest security solution I've every deployed.

Overall: Trend Micro OfficeScan has been my endpoint security solution for many years. It's been stable, reliable, and has provided excellent protection. It doesn't get in the way of users and has minimal impact on system performance. It's also easy to administer, and with the upgrade to Apex One, promises an even easier path to administration for overworked IT units.

Pros: i am using this software in our company for more then 4 year(may be company s using this before i joined this as well) and what i feel it have a tremendous improvement in UI in recent release that helps administrator while setting this up.Spam filter is very much accurate. Any malware or virus detection is good and i have never seen any outbreaks till now. We found it very effective in detecting, removing or preventing and virus from infecting our systems or data.

Cons: Documentation is something that can be improved here.Licensing is over-complex and need to be improved for different features/variations. Need improvements on spyware protection front.

Pros: Since switching to the hosted solution version management of the software and software clients has become even easier. Updates roll out and alerts are easier than ever to manage! Rules and policies are made in a pinch without any prior experience of TrenMicro systems.

Cons: Compatibility with Windows XP is limited but understandable. We have XP machines that operate legacy software for manufacturing equipment that don't have an Internet connection but are connected to the local area network so we still require AV to be installed.

Overall: Easy to use and implement while providing a high level of security to our network that can be managed remotely from anywhere with an Internet connection.

Comments: We really enjoyed working with their Beta Team in the development process and as such found that we could really dig deep in to this product. That gave us a much better understanding and now many of the posts we see people asking questions on the support server appear to us a problems that stem from not reading the manual! What can I say? 8-)

Pros: Full Disclosure, I was a Beta Tester for Trend Micro but did not receive any compensation. So we really dug into this Software and can say without any hesitation that it's one of the finest choices for an Enterprise Solution you will ever find!

Cons: Not as intuitive as one would hope but their Tech Support is Tops and they do get back to you in a reasonable amount of time. Once you get past the one or two hurdles that come up when implementing an Enterprise Solution you will find it your Go-To Choice!

Pros: - Very easy to setup and use

- Does a great job catching and stopping viruses

- Average Cost, not overly priced

- Does a good job cleaning up if you do get a virus

Cons: - Tends to be a bit of a resource hog for what it does

- I did notice that a few viruses were not cleaned completely using their software and I had to use other systems to completely clean infected products.

- Did give a few false positive alerts for several of my clients

Overall: Trend Micro has been around a while and their security software is good. It works well and does a good job blocking viruses although it does sometimes say it is catching a virus when it is not and it blocks legitimate software. In fairness, nearly all security software does this now and then so not a major issue. The few times a computer did get infected I did find that I had to use their software in tandem with other systems to fully clean the computer. Still considering the cost it does a good job for most users. Businesses would most likely want a stronger solution, but for average users or small business this works great.

Pros: The centralized administration of several OfficeScan servers in a LAN and WAN network and the last recent update in less than 24 hours and less depending on the needs for the effective handling of the traces from the cloud

Cons: The only drawback with this antivirus is that it is very heavy on the clients and when the update of the traces in the clients fails, problems are generated in the server officescan due to the excessive use of the CPU at the level of hanging it and prevents it from being able to update the other clients

Pros: In company, computer users click diffirient porno and virus sites. Trend micro best of against these stuations. Also you can scan every hard disc, usb drives so trend micro send you reports monthly. Some antivurs programs after you install you machine starts working very slow. But after trend micro installation you will not see bad stuation with you machine. Machine speed will be good performance.

Cons: It is not easy say any disadvantage of trend micro. Actually I didnt see any disadvantage of this software.

Pros: The intuitive and very explicit console helps a lot in the handling of security events configured, added to its versatility in implementation is very surprising, just by having more than 7 way of installing the client.

It really is a tool that greatly simplifies the management of threats and vulnerabilities that desktop computers and servers can have.

Cons:

The cost is somewhat high; but once you understand the advantages offered by your administration; will realize that it was worth it.

Pros: Very easy to implement

Easy to maintain, update and manage

Cons: Bit on expensive side compared to other anti-virus products but features it provides make it worth.

Overall: We needed Anti-virus solution which can be easily implemented and managed in our small business office. After my friend in cyber security suggested Trend Micro, we purchased it. And it was very swift experience to implement it. It provides real-time protection for all PCs on network, instant virus definition updates and piece-of-mind protection against all threats. Must have for small business offices to enterprises.

Pros: Easy to install on the server, easy enough to install on the clients. Pretty simple to edit settings for funtions/features. Technical support is 100% at the top of the charts.

Cons: Remote install can be a bit of a bear. It works fine if you create a script to run the executable file that is shared on the server, but to force a remote client to take the install through the Trend Micro GUI the machine has to have certain things set up first... kind of negating a remote install.

Pros: The product is very good, we use it since 2010 and we did not notice a single problem. On the client PCs its user interface is very minimal and not distracting.

Cons: It is a LAN-only product. Disconnected PCs do not get any signature updates. Scheduled full-PC scans are long and cause the system to slowdown even for hours, but they aren't mandatory and it's up to the sysadmin to plan the schedule. I don't know of any rival product with the same security levels and a better behavior.

Pros: Trend Micro is a cut above its competitors in terms of overall security quality, user friendliness, and customer service. The suite we purchased for the company was used on all 8 computers and was a constant source of relief for administrators. Trend Micro offers a range of top of the line cyber security packages and we found that Enterprise Security Suite worked best for us.

Cons: This software is a bit pricier than its competitors, though it offers comparable protection. The primary upgrade for the price tag is the user interface, which is definitely a breath of fresh air.

Pros: Used to be OfficeScan and recently migrated and rebranded to ApexOne. We've used this software for many years and it provides anti-virus and end point protection that works very well. It's ability to detect and alert malware, etc. has been very useful for our application. Patterns and signatures are updated consistently, keeping protection up to date. Visibility to endpoints, threats, etc. from backend admin console is very useful for monitoring your environment. Highly recommend EDR as an add on if you do not have that

Cons: Full scans do take up resources and thus, you should plan to complete after business hours if at all possible. Some false positives do hit as detected malware on clients, but it's nothing that cannot be further investigated.

Pros: I love the hands off I can do with this software. I can block many things at the user/desktop level in addition to the AV functionality. I can also track some information with regards to users behaviors and stop bad things from going wrong.

Cons: The initial setup would have been better with a canned solution to build on. The defaults will leave you vulnerable and needs to be locked down more. It would be better to have it locked down and then turn off options as needed. This is a better safe then sorry way to be with AV.

Overall: We had a couple solutions before we brought in Trend, this brought it down to one solution and one pain of glass to administer by. Our previous solution were way more complicated then a company our size needed. This app gives you just the right amount of controls and protection for the end users and servers.

Pros: The ease of use of this software is amazing. We literally set it and forget it and it manages itself. Being able to deploy a software that can run itself with minimal support is priceless.

Cons: The install took a long time. Had to install clients on every machine which took several days to complete. Well worth it though.

Overall: Complete virus security. Trend does a superior job at keeping our company safe and free from spam and viruses.

Pros: As an IT Systems Engineer and security officer, I have the responsibility of ensuring our networks are threat free. I love the ability to centrally manage all of the machines I am responsible for and see their current status at a single glance.

Cons: I wish it were easier to mass deploy the software using Group Policy Management. However, there are several options to deploy the software.

Pros: Has many features, if you have the full package. Just what you would expect of a Security Product.

Really improved over the years. We have seen significant reductions in user reported AV and malware issues. These latest version improved scanning and catching.

Client updates released via the console are efficient and quiet. Management from the console is fair and fairly straightforward.

Cons: All the improvements and features come at a cost. Seems to be really resource heavy on machines. As compared to past products or some other brands I have worked with.

False positive hits that need to be remediated. I know all AV may have some but this seems a bit above "normal". It becomes a firedrill when suddenly something we had used for years because "suspicious" and flagged.

One or 2 times we had a bad update from Trend causing an impact in about a 1 year stretch, last such issue was about 6 months ago. Note - Trend helped remediate this quickly.

I cannot measure this with other products so Im not sure how this experience measures up.

Pros: Trend Micro Enterprise security suite protect your network from malicious, unauthorized and harmful attacks. The suite has endpoint security, mac support, mobile and control for management. It easy use for administrator, just install the platform and configure the policy and the system will do the rest protecting your investment.

Cons: Trend Micro security has different type of suite, make sure to choose proper package for your company complete protection requirement.

Comments: Their support is excellent especially when we are looking to them for guidance.

Pros: We had a different virus protection and changed to Trend Micro in 2016. It was the best move we could have made. The software has kept us virus clean as we've had multiple virus attempts that the software has stopped from infiltrating our system.

Cons: There isn't anything that I would say is a con to the product. For us the price is hefty but compared to the cost of a virus attack it balances out.

Pros:

It can accurately detect, prevent or remove any spam, malware or virus to ensure that our physical, virtual, and cloud systems are well-protected and secure at all times. It scans every hard disc and usb drive and sends you a report every month. Many outbreaks and problems have been averted because of this software, so it gives us a huge relief to have it.

It's so easy to use that our system administrator just had to set it and forget it and it took care of the rest. Update rollouts and monitoring can be done in a single dashboard, so it's very convenient.

Cons: Full-system scans can take a considerable amount of time and can slow down the machine a lot. However, it is optional and the administrator can just schedule it when the systems are not in use.

Pros: Stops 100% of the treats and i feel that my pc is safe and protected.

The other important thing is that is industry leader.

Cons: Sometimes stops the programs that i want to run :)The software cleaning the treats without asking me.

Overall: Fully protection and the calmness to do my job.

Pros: Very simple to set up, runs automatically in background, protects from many sources, automatic reporting feature is top-notch

Cons: So far, after 3 years of using the product, I have not had any issues whatsoever, so I have no cons to report

Pros: This is a great product. Very easy to deploy and update. Simple dashboard to monitor clients and push updates

Cons: no cons with the software at this point of time. Very easy to use product. would recommend to companies looking for AV solution

Pros: It works, they update it continuously and have support to remove most of the current web threats.

Cons: You can't install printers drivers,

You can't do remote desktop.

Even on administrator accounts, which make IT life's difficult, at least you can disable it and do your work.

Overall: Great pricing, easy to implement but needs to be easier in order to set policies and be more smart about the admin user and let them work.

Pros: Light scan engine, it does not use a lot of resources

Lots of protection against ransomware and other threats

Cons: If all the device control functions are activated, the PC performance will start to decay

Comments: As a user I had very few problems with this product, but when I had a security event he gave me very little information about what had happened.

Pros: The little intervention required by the user

Cons: The little information given to the end user

Comments: Worth using as is easy to configure overall and deployment into a larger marketplace

Pros: Easy deployment to our international locations managing thousands on clients. Very agile and user friendly, easy policy configuration and adaptable to business needs.

Cons: Policy management can be misleading, does need time spent to test and configure initially before wide scale deployment.

Pros: Love the simplicity and protection. Easy to use, feel safe at all times online.

Cons: The price. Renewing each year it a tough pill to swallow but worth it.

Pros: It runs in the background and does not bog down our system. I used to work for a major competitor of Trend and I'm very happy with what I have seen so far in this product.

Cons: In the beginning it was too sensitive blocking programs it shouldn't have. I'd rather have it be too sensitive than letting malware through.

Pros: Install and forget about it. No updating, no hassle. It just runs in the background and the only time you see it is when it stops an attack.

Overall: computer security

Pros: everything control at console end. no end user involvement required

Cons: poor help desk support. can take a few days to respond for a simple issue.

Pros: *- Very Good Virus and Malware detector.

*- Password manager is very good it does store everything you need.

*- Good protection against ramsonware software.

Cons: *- Resource hungry as many protection software.

*- I dont like the interface, if is intuitive but it does need a bit more of clarification.

*- Help section needs to improve,

Overall: Protecting my work enviroment with this software is a must in this digital era where may people want to take advantage of your hard work.

Pros: virtual patching HIPS very good properties and excellent experience.

Cons: no more least about this software, all is well.

Pros: This is the best security system. Our Office systems are secured with this firewall system. It enables the real-time scan.

Comments: This program functions fine for the home user that isn't running business software that it could possibly be incompatible with. I didn't have any problem with the software on a laptop that didn't have my billing software on it.

Pros: This software is easy to install across multiple devices and easy to use. The renewal process is easy and quick. Visually, it's easy to find what you want to do.

Cons: This program seemed to be interfering with my medical billing software and causing it to freeze up at very inconvenient times. After researching this among other users of the medical billing software I found that others experienced the same issues with it causing the billing software to freeze up. I had to uninstall this software because of it's interference with the billing software.

Pros: good customer support.

easy to use .

every thing is visible on dashboard.

user friendly.

good features like dlp and application control .

every thing can be managed from a single console.

Cons: some time polices take little time to be pushed.

Overall: very good product . Give a nice overview of endpoint machines. just ones or twice my polices got stuck .

overall good product.

Comments: Very light software as compared to some of its competitors. It is also not a resource intensive application.

Pros: The ability to manage this product from the Internet was a major plus as it didn't require an onsite server to run the program. Sending mobile users a link with instructions to install was also a great feature.

Cons: AD and GPOs install took some manual work as the previous AV did not uninstall on some of the installations

Pros: Trend Micro Security Suite empowers our employee to work safely, sharing data and application on any devices in any location. The agent is also remarkable, it does it job without using much resources on our workstations.

Cons: There are a lot of features of these suite. Make sure to explore to fully maximize the system.

Pros: Central console for management, intelligent download of packages or updates, easy to detect some malware.

Cons: Slowdown the machine sometimes, and depending of the hardware, the machine becomes really slow to use.

Overall: Easier to setup in complex environments and the interface, i think, is more user-friendly than other tools.

Pros: The best thing is that it is 100% effective against all types of malicious software, it is very effective against phishing, this tool also protects privacy in social networks

Cons: Its impact on system performance is a bit above of others antivirus. It would be wonderful if it were available in Spanish to take advantage of the features of this tool.

Comments: Works best inside the network

Pros: Works fine, serves its purpose. secure easy to use. Very user-friendly, anyone that knows how to read can use it

Cons: It only works inside of the network. It is a problem when you have users that work remotely because they are not covered.

Pros: Good virus and malware detector, the password manager is good, and provides good protection against ramsonware software.

Cons: It seems to me that the help section needs improvement and is a bit hungry for resources sometimes the computers computerize

Pros: The centralized policy management offers enterprise wide protection across gateways, mail servers, file servers, and endpoints. The software is easy to install and deploy in a mixed platform environment.

Cons: It lacks some of the advanced configuration and VPN security that I would have liked to have had. The Firewall protection was very basic.

Recommendations to other buyers: This software is best suited for the less complex security coverage and deployment. It will protect your servers and your PC's but has some issues with VPN and advance server configurations.

Comments: Never touch this turd

Pros: none at all. best feature is uninstaller .The sales team is hard at work shoving this turd down every business' throat..

Cons: Trend Micro is the biggest piece of bad security software i have ever seen. I could write a program that randomly chose files and deleted them as "malicious" and still have a better success rate than the useless product you have created. The amount of false positives is ridiculous and the restore tool you need to download to restore an incorrectly quarantined file has not been able to restore a single file. Useless piece of crap.

Pros: Apex One has a lot of new features compared to ordinary virus/malware defense. Trend Micro support is top notch. I have used their support several times.

Cons: None so far. Trend Micro is one of the best!

Pros: I used Trend Micro before it was popular many years ago. The biggest thing about Trend Micro is the reliability of not just this product - but most, if not - all, of their products.

Cons: I don't have a complaint. I've always been able to use it with no issues.

Pros: Good malware protection, has password keeper, file encryption, and file shredding, and has a firewall booster

Cons: Heavy performance hit, no hardened browser, webcam protection, and no unlimited plans which is a very useful feature to me

Comments: I have had this product on my computer for 4 years. So far I have not had any issues.
