Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Compliance solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Being able to sort on device types or devices with open ports is helpful when narrowing down assets of possible misconfigured devices that may be vulnerable on the network. We can take action on those devices based off of corporate policy."
"The user management has been very easy for the most part."
"The visibility is the main benefit. We now know how many devices are connected, what the use for each device is and what kind of devices we have in our environment."
"The most valuable features of the Forescout Platform are NAC for sharing, Network Access Control, and port sharing of the devices."
"We think it's simple. We think it's very useful and we really like reports and everything."
"Ease of deployment There's a great support team that becomes actively engaged whenever we encounter issues. Their technical support is amazing. Good documentation is available. The product is stable. The solution is highly scalable. I recommend using the solution because it gives verified control over the environment. It has a great visibility feature."
"Forescout CounterACT has allowed us to better open our access and control wireless access globally from our HQ. This allows us to monitor the network access for every office globally. This has improved overall security, reducing risk and opening up the opportunity to provide greater end user flexibility."
"It has helped with improving our security posture in terms of controlling the access of rogue devices into our network through identification. We have been able to prevent rogue device activities on the network, check the health of the system, and ensure remediation."
"Vulnerability management is a valuable feature that I enjoy."
"Workload security now has a feature called Activity Monitor for each endpoint."
"There's excellent data loss prevention to help prevent purposeful or accidental loss of data."
"Along with the anti-malware, it has a built-in device control and DLP."
"I have found Trend Micro Apex One to be secure."
"The features I found most valuable in this solution are the micro apps. I also value the dashboard that offers better visibility and helps protect machines from attacks."
"Many features that this solution has, competitors lack. The feature I think is quite good is data loss prevention."
"The main benefit is the threat intelligence network of Trend Micro."
"The initial setup is a bit complex."
"I should be able to integrate my Forescout with any other third party security technology, to build that connected security strategy."
"Custom integrations need to be better."
"Multitenancy should be included in the next version so it could be used as a managed service provider."
"We experienced some detection issues when checking compliance for the Sophos agent."
"The biggest disadvantage is the pricing."
"The reporting feature needs improvement."
"When we automate an email to send to a user, sometimes it gets blocked, but that has nothing to do with Forescout. It depends on the mail gateway that we use or integrate with."
"Trend Micro Apex One should have a DLP (Data loss prevention) module."
"Apex One uses a lot of RAM and other physical resources, and I also don't like the web interface."
"The menus can be more user-friendly or easier. For example, if we want to enable access to the USB ports, it should be more user-friendly. It is not easy. We need to navigate through several menus to be able to give access."
"The Apex One endpoint sensor has room for improvement."
"We sometimes face issues with policies and rules while working with Apex One. They sometimes do not work."
"It would be great it can support endpoint encryption."
"Apex One has some room for improvement on the agent side. I want to get more from the logs and those kinds of things. I want to see whether the agent has the proper updates or any issues with the machine itself."
"While the single console offers partial end-to-end visibility into our IT security environment, we leverage additional solutions to achieve comprehensive coverage, so this area can be improved by Apex One."
