We performed a comparison between KerioControl and Trend Micro Deep Discovery based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Intrusion Detection and Prevention Software (IDPS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The most valuable feature is to provide users with the ability to log in to the portal page, keep track of their data usage and perform bandwidth management."
"In terms of the comprehensiveness of the security features, it does a great job of laying out what it does. It's fairly easy to edit and research. Some of the features were turned on by our IT company and I was able to easily find other features on my own by searching for videos on the internet. I've been able to block certain websites, and content filter, as well as manage some of our bandwidth because we live stream on Sunday. I'm able to dedicate bandwidth for the encoder that goes to the internet. It always has enough bandwidth, no matter how many people are on the network. That's really helpful."
"The flexibility of the system, the capacity to provide the right level of security, and the ability to be integrated into different kinds of infrastructures are the most valuable features."
"The firewall and intrusion detection features are good. It has blocked certain things. We have a lot of blocked sites that the staff or anyone using it, the public, etc., can't go on. It works for that. I get quite a few messages every now and again, saying that a virus has been detected and I can go in and block the user who's causing the problem."
"Kerio is a lot clearer to set up to do particular things, whereas when I do it on a Cisco or a FortiGate I have to go fight with it per week sometimes to do something I can do in 20 minutes on Kerio."
"Technical support is good. They respond right away."
"The user interface and the ease of use are pretty good. Everything fits together so nicely."
"Kerio Control can be scaled easily."
"As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients."
"Deep Discovery is scalable and compatible with other products. It's crucial to have that compatibility because it's an integral part of our security solution. It integrates smoothly. The interface is user-friendly, so administration is simple."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very specific product for threat intelligence with smart protection."
"The most valuable features are the protection and that it is fast."
"The tool's most valuable feature is its collaboration with other products. Integrating with other security products was simple and easy."
"The most valuable features are monitoring for advanced persistent threats, the system runs in a sandbox allowing for effective zero-day exploits management, and the Inspector has a built-in sandbox."
"The platform provides all essential features for discovery and administration."
"The performance and stability are great."
"The Kerio hardware devices look cheap and could be improved. Some of our clients are switching to Sophos because their hardware has a more sleek design."
"The VPN features are the ones that we really like, but we are using a VPN client to be able to use them. We would like to have an SSL implementation for this same feature so we don't need to install anything on the client side. That's a feature I really miss and that should really be embedded in the product. We really would love to use it via a web browser."
"The solution should offer more dashboards."
"I would like to see them develop a bit more flexibility creating VLANs."
"The filtering on the unlicensed version of Kerio Control is inefficient - you have to add each website manually, which isn't feasible."
"I would like for them to add more security features."
"I would like the customer statistics to be more user-friendly. It should explain more what users have been doing throughout the day. Sometimes, it'll just say they downloaded a big file. Meanwhile, they were connected through a VPN."
"The improvement that we are looking for is for when decide to move some part of our application to the cloud."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery is a very expensive solution, making it very hard to sell."
"This solution could be improved with faster technical support and cheaper licensing prices."
"The solution could be more stable and offer more security."
"The scalability is sometimes limited."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active."
"The tool's configuration can be made easier."
"The solution could be more secure."
"I would like to see integration with third-party tools to improve the visibility of the dashboards."
