We have two people who work on this solution.""The product's scalability is an area of concern where improvements are required.""They need to come up with cloud solutions.""To improve Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption, the user interface could be somewhat more friendly. It is already friendly, but it can not be approached through to the exact issue and just to give you the full detail of each and every port graphically.""In the next release, it would be better if it was more user-friendly. It is a little complicated for the average technical person. If they can make it more user-friendly, it would be much easier and more helpful.""It is not easy to integrate with third party solutions.""Support from them was not fast.""I would like to see more integration. Good cloud-based solutions need to be arrayed. I'd like to see better integration with administrative tools as well as Active Directory integration."
