"Backup can be improved."
"The feedback that I have received is that the performance could be better, and the user experience is not as good compared to a previous solution we used. It could be more user-friendly. Of course, it still works fine for our operations."

This adjustment aims to ensure that a broader range of data sizes can benefit from the solution. Also, the continuous evolution of Tipping Point is evident in its features, particularly the personalized dashboard and related aspects."

"Trend Micro TippingPoint Threat Protection System needs strong Spanish-language support."
"The solution is pretty expensive."
"There is room for improvement in customer service and support."
