"Sometimes there are issues with the antivirus back logs."
"The product is not secured and doesn't offer a fast connection."

"There could be an equipment inventory feature for the solution."
"What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality."
"The support for email protection can be improved."
"Deep Security's most valuable features are antivirus and host intrusion detection."
"The price could be reduced."
"The workloads must be better."
"Pricing is on the expensive side and could be more affordable. The technical support for Trend Micro Deep Security also needs improvement."
"The working interface and the reports for non-technical people could use improvement. They are a bit scary."
"I've not worked with CrowdStrike Falcon, but one of our customers also had CrowdStrike Falcon on some of the devices. I was only supporting Trend Micro. They had a ransomware attack, but Trend Micro didn't detect that particular ransomware attack, whereas CrowdStrike did."
