"SafeGuard's best feature is its stability."
"It is seamless and easy to install. We haven't encountered any recent issues."
"Policy deployment is easy and quick to do."
"The malware protection and the scanning features are most valuable in this solution."
"The solution can block a virus attack and prevent it from moving across the system."
"The tool is very safe, reliable, and fast."
"The most valuable features of the solution are the fact that they are able to encrypt the hard disk and to encrypt USB sticks."
"Customer service has been excellent. Trend Micro has very good deals and support - also in the Middle East."
"Setting up the product is not too difficult."
"Their ransomware protection is useful."
"It will reduce the vulnerability level for safe browsing."
"Parental control"
"This solution is able to protect the data, files, and folders that have been hijack or encrypted."
"The solution offers a lot of custom features."
"The Android protection, it’s faster."
"It's a good product, but some are not happy with the boot BCN, and the point-to-point VPN requires the best protection."
"The lack of need for the patch for an extra password is a shortcoming. It will be a great improvement if the patch requires an extra password so that they can find out how to synchronize your Windows password with the same password for Sophos SafeGuard."
"It just needs a little bit more on the reporting side. Its reporting can be improved a little bit in terms of being able to know that things are in the right status. I should be able to pull a report to make sure that everything is all right. It could also have cloud integration. At the time I was using it, it wasn't a cloud product."
"You have to pay extra for some additional features, like data extraction. It would be nice if everything was available in one bundle."
"It would be ideal if the solution had different features within one agent."
"When you have the PPM chipset, you can have the power-on authentication, when you boot up your machine, you can set the six-digit passcode. As of right now, SafeGuard can't manage the six-digit passcode in terms of the expiration, and I need that added as a feature."
"Sometimes, multiple updates and crashes happen in the tool, making it an area where improvements are required."
"In the next release, I would like to see more automation with the endpoint logging, but it's a special feature that is quite complicated to explain."
"When the agent upgrades itself, it loses some settings and they need to be re-enabled manually."
"This solution is weak and cannot detect the latest ransomware."
"Contact Backup."
"There have been some users who have been complaining about the interface being unfriendly and when the application software is installed on their phone making their mobile slow."
"The iOS protection: This is because Apple will “close” your smartphone."
"Sometimes, when generating random numbers to our mobile feed the random number doesn't work. We mainly deal with QR codes because of this. If they could fix the random number generator that would be helpful."
"There is always room for improvement in security."
"Trend Micro tends to drain the battery running in the background, but apart from that, they need to improve their updates."
