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."It has helped our organization with testing."
"The statistic feature enables us to better use bandwidth management. We monitored the use by mobile, type of application, department, and by users. The bandwidth was solid. Our internet speed is optimized for our research."
"What I like the most about Kerio is that I can use the software appliance as a solution, so if the hardware fails for any reason then I can quickly replace it with hardware that I have in stock."
"Kerio has improved my organization's security."
"One very good thing about the Kerio device is its authentication. I don't have a Windows domain for authentication. Instead, I use the Kerio product because it can separate users by Mac addresses and give them IP addresses based on their usernames, automatically logging them in. This makes for a very simple authentication system."
"The top features are ones that we're not using yet but we soon will be because we've just had broadband upgraded in Australia. We've got something called the National Broadband Network, which is forced onto you, so you have to take it when it arrives. We'll be trying the high availability out soon. We tried that with some load balancing, it didn't quite work as we expected, but I think that was more of a configuration thing rather than a product thing."
"The solution provides feasibility regarding cyber privacy."
"I want to have access to my computer from the outside and Kerio Control plays a role because it has a VPN... It is more reliable because it's a smaller group of computers to target for hackers and the like. The VPN works very well. I use it to work remotely very easily and exchange information, both to and from the location where it's deployed, and there have been no problems there."
"One of the most valuable features is the performance, since, so far, we have not faced any issues with Deep Discovery."
"As a security product, managing threats is crucial for my clients."
"The performance and stability are great."
"The product's initial setup phase was not difficult."
"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."
"It is a very good solution. It is very light, and it is quite quick to figure out the problem in your network."
"The tool's stability and performance are good."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Deep Discovery is its complete end-to-end visibility of threats."
"I would like it if the interface section had multiple failovers. Although I do have three connections, just in case our physical cables get disconnected, I can only set up one failover as a backup. So, if for some reason our fiber and our AFM went down together, I would have to have it search for our 4G modem. I'd love to have extra backups running."
"I would like to be able to inspect https packets for the purpose of virus scanning."
"The filtering on the unlicensed version of Kerio Control is inefficient - you have to add each website manually, which isn't feasible."
"There were certain things I didn't know about it, but I've always been able to just contact our IT company. They've been able to walk me through certain things. It was quite a monumental task to set up a public site. Support really had to help me with setting up the VLANs and walk me through it. It was not possible for me to figure that out on my own, but that's what they're here for. That could have been a little bit easier laid out."
"They should add wireless features."
"The upgrades make the network slower."
"I find it a bit costly to pay for the products that I am not using. They need to change their model in such a way that you don't have to pay for the products that you are not using. Its local support and scalability are also not good. I am looking forward to a more scalable product that will be able to grow with time and technology."
"The denial of service could also be improved. There recently was a big issue with denial of service attacks and it was a bit laborious."
"Trend Micro Deep Discovery's technical support could be improved, and it could be made more active."
"There are certain aspects of flexibility in the policies that should be added to Deep Discovery."
"The product's scalability feature needs to be improved, as it is an area in the product with certain shortcomings."
"Some of the end users may not be technically proficient, so they occasionally face problems due to a lack of knowledge."
"The solution should support multiple platforms in Windows, Linux, and Mac. Customers can have different software types. The virtual environment should be able to install and analyze them. The tool also gives only a minimum level of extension support. It may not be able to extract files and give details about them. I would also like to see third-party product integration in the tool. The solution's current integration is only with Trend Micro products only."
"The solution needs to be able to integrate better with third-party infrastructure."
"The stability of the solution could be improved. It should be 100% stable, but it's not there right now."
"The solution could be more secure."
