We performed a comparison between Trend Micro Apex One and Trend Vision One based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."It is very easy to set up. I would rate my experience with the initial setup a ten out of ten, with ten being very easy to set up."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The stability is very good."
"It is stable and scalable."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"Technical support is quite knowledgeable and helpful."
"It's easier to integrate Apex One than Kaspersky. It also performs well, and the customer feedback has been positive."
"The most valuable features of Trend Micro Apex One are it has its own machine learning and it is quite fast, compared with the other solutions. When you're comparing the other solutions, each has pros and cons, you cannot claim one is 100 percent suitable for you. None of the solutions dominate in all areas."
"The XDR feature which provides us with real visibility into our environment is the most valuable."
"Its ability to detect ransomware and malware is the most valuable. Its protection is also good."
"The main features that are useful are application control, vulnerability protection, and XDR Vision One which we have recently started using. Additionally, the solution is easy to use."
"The most valuable aspect is achieving zero attacks and zero data compromise."
"The number of accessories included is the most valuable feature."
"The automatic EDR system that notifies us when something is wrong is valuable."
"The setup is fairly simple."
"We are very impressed with the single pane of glass visibility that Trend Micro XDR provides."
"We had previously deployed on-premises, and all we had to do was access the designated console and click a button to migrate all on-premises agents to cloud agents."
"We haven't had any issues with configurations or customizations."
"I like that it is a comprehensive security solution with a lot of features. You can say XDR is an end-to-end security solution with endpoint security. It includes all your servers, networks, and other devices. The endpoint security solution does not cover this. Plus, machine learning and features like that are the main things in XDR solutions."
"Its detection rate is valuable. It is really an easy product to install and manage. It is quite effective at what it does, and if needed, it can also be co-managed, which means 24 hours and seven days a week monitoring through a SOC."
"I'm satisfied with the level of coverage. The policies have been very useful and detailed."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"Integration with Azure and SaaS provisioning tools could improve Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"Everything with Fortinet having to do with their cloud services. They need to invest more in their internal infrastructure that they are running in the cloud. One of the things I find with their cloud environment compared to others' is that they go cheap on the equipment. So it causes some performance degradation."
"It takes about two business days for initial support, which is too slow in urgent situations."
"Trend Micro Apex One should have a DLP (Data loss prevention) module."
"We cover many things, but there is something called ATP, advanced threat prevention. I think they need to invest in this technology."
"The Apex One endpoint sensor has room for improvement."
"Trend Micro Apex One can improve its vulnerability assessment and monitoring tools."
"Product performance needs improvement. Customers face the same performance issues on the endpoint of the product. We need improvement on that side."
"The only thing that I would like to see changed or improved in the next release is when it reports C&C callbacks, to make it easier to trace, to see what's doing that, whether it's a program checking for updates or a malicious program."
"It is weak in terms of intelligence. By implementing Trend Micro Apex One, I wanted to see real-life scenarios. I deployed it on 50 clients to check if I could do lateral moments and zero-day exploits. I wanted to check how the zero-day protection works with Trend Micro. It fails with most of them because it is signature-based. They are not looking at the MITRE ATT&CK framework, so with zero-day attacks, it mostly fails."
"The console can be better in terms of management and viewing the hierarchy of devices. Currently, setting up the hierarchy OU-wise is a bit cumbersome. It can be made a bit easier. If that can be more user-friendly and easier to manage, it would be great."
"We do use the automation capability a little. However, we noticed some limitations, especially on the playbook side."
"While the continuous addition of features is commendable, the sheer volume of changes makes it difficult to stay abreast of the latest developments."
"The deployment process could be more streamlined over the existing infrastructure, as it was not as easy as we thought."
"The automation capabilities on-premises could be improved, as we currently have to manually activate servers and push policies."
"While blocking an IP address restricts access for 30 days, it eventually becomes accessible again."
"Also, XDR should improve its coverage of the latest IOCs. Their suspicious object management works, but the coverage should be improved. It will take one or two months to get those things covered. XDR will detect on a behavioral basis, but these databases will not get updated daily like some other solutions. If you're dealing with new ransomware or malware, it may take around a month before it's covered by Trend Micro."
"In new versions I would like to see better implementation of the reporting features, especially in regards to EDR visibility."
"The product needs to have a lot more maturity, and they need to improve the overall technical support framework for getting the value out of XDR."
