Trend Micro Smart Protection Previous Solutions

ManelAlvarez - PeerSpot reviewer
Head of CyberResilience Services & BDM at Devoteam Management Consulting

In the past, I have worked with other vendors before Trend Micro. For example, I used to work with McAfee or Symantec, but I eventually transitioned my services to CrowdStrike or Sophos. I chose Trend Micro over McAfee because I had concerns about McAfee's strategy and direction, especially after its connection with Palantir and being part of Fortpoint. I had a similar experience with Broadcom, where they focused only on the top 500 US customers, leaving the rest, like those in Spain, without proper support. This made me look for a better solution.

We previously were using Microsoft. We switched to Trend Micro Smart Protection because we needed a more easily adaptable system to the rapidly changing threat landscape.

We, as distributors, offer a range of products including PostgreSQL, Kaspersky, Norton, and Sophos among others. Personally, I have hands-on experience with all these endpoint products. As for my personal usage, I've found differences between Trend Micro and the other solutions. Trend Micro excels in terms of device performance, standing out among its competitors.

In the past, I have also worked with McAfee, Symantec, and Surface. 

The last time I used a Symantec I had a lot of issues where a lot of my workstations become slow. With McAfee updating the product was always quite an issue. Surface had reports, that, for me, were very complex compared to Trend Micro. That's why our organization decided to switch to this solution instead of using the others mentioned.

My company has experience with Symantec. My company moved from Symantec since it does not offer all the features, like DLP in application security features.

We used to use a solution by McAfee but we switched because of the support. It was not matching our criteria at that time, although now I know they improved.

I did previously use a different solution. It was a long time ago, so I'm unsure as to what the company did use back then.

We've had some side solutions in the past, but in this company, we are mostly using this product. We don't mix much with other solutions.

Previously, we were using CrowdStrike and Carbon Black. In the last ten years, we have used three or four different brands and we feel that sometimes it is good to change.

Prior to this, I was very committed to Kaspersky. In the past ten years, 70% of the endpoint protection market has been captured by Kaspersky. Before that, it was Symantec. I also have experience with solutions from Bitdefender, McAfee, and Sophos.

I think that Trend Micro is already quite strong against Symantec and Sophos. With respect to Kaspersky, they do not have and endpoint DLP solution, it does not have a choice of deployment model, and the sandboxing is not as proactive. That said, I feel that Kaspersky is the biggest competitor. It is a more mature product in Pakistan and I have different clients who are using each of these solutions. Overall, they are not much different in terms of features.

We use almost the whole lineup of products from Trend Micro. For example, we use their new solution with artificial intelligence. The use case for the Smart Protection solution is fair and appropriate for extended use.
