"The performance is good."
"Deep Security is a good product for managing a few servers."
"There are a good signature set and a high rate of detection."
"It helps with virtual patching and IDS fetching."
"The most valuable feature is the virtual patching."
"We find that their technical support team is always accessible and willing to assist."
"The agentless protection is very nice in Trend Micro."
"It is connected into an intelligence database and is quick to pick up new threats. It also reduces my workload with its speed and the protection that it provides."
"Its scalability and the central point of XDR so that all items are centrally reporting to one solution are the most valuable features."
"The initial setup is not that tough. It's easy."
"Workload security now has a feature called Activity Monitor for each endpoint."
"The solution offers quick and timely updates."
"It's made it easier for us to monitor the security environment in general."
"We've found the technical support to be very helpful overall."
"I like Apex One's USB port blocking. We implement different policies for each client. For example, a client might ask us to block certain USB devices or require us to restart a desktop on the network."
"The DDAN and the sand boxing features are very good and accurate."
"The licensing structure could improve."
"The client can show as offline sometimes, and that becomes a bit difficult for troubleshooting. We end up basically redeploying the client. This is something that could be improved in the future."
"Another issue is if I want to suggest this solution to a customer, we won't get the pricing immediately, which is a major problem."
"The initial setup was complex."
"I would like to see better pricing. The pricing could be lower."
"It should have XDR and EDR integration. It would be nice if they can tie it up with an XDR or EDR."
"Installation and operations may have issues on some machines owing to their configuration of the network cards as the product is a DPI driver."
"It needs to improve its integration with a lot of other products. This should be in the road map because we have a lot of SaaS-based appliances which are not connected with each other."
"The DLP model needs improvement."
"The solution could improve by making the interface less confusing, it needs to be simplified."
"We're not sure if we're going to continue with those products or their products or we're going to switch to something else. That's why we stopped the immigration process. If we were going to replace another product, it's not really efficient to waste time on it moving patients and other clients."
"The technical support should be more proactive."
"Whether the license is monthly or annual depends on the deal of the company."
"There is a need for enhancement in certain reporting formats."
"We had a few occasions where we had to turn off our clients' computers to upgrade the drivers."
"We are completely satisfied with the functionality of the product, but the reporting should be more granular."
