Trend Micro Worry-Free Standard Software

Great Server Based Antivirus

Pros

Easy to install on the server, easy enough to install on the clients. Pretty simple to edit settings for funtions/features. Technical support is 100% at the top of the charts.

Cons

Remote install can be a bit of a bear. It works fine if you create a script to run the executable file that is shared on the server, but to force a remote client to take the install through the Trend Micro GUI the machine has to have certain things set up first... kind of negating a remote install.

Most versatile anti-virus solution

We needed Anti-virus solution which can be easily implemented and managed in our small business office. After my friend in cyber security suggested Trend Micro, we purchased it. And it was very swift experience to implement it. It provides real-time protection for all PCs on network, instant virus definition updates and piece-of-mind protection against all threats. Must have for small business offices to enterprises.

Pros

Very easy to implement
Easy to maintain, update and manage

Cons

Bit on expensive side compared to other anti-virus products but features it provides make it worth.

Great solution for small to midsized AV solution and more

We had a couple solutions before we brought in Trend, this brought it down to one solution and one pain of glass to administer by. Our previous solution were way more complicated then a company our size needed. This app gives you just the right amount of controls and protection for the end users and servers.

Pros

I love the hands off I can do with this software. I can block many things at the user/desktop level in addition to the AV functionality. I can also track some information with regards to users behaviors and stop bad things from going wrong.

Cons

The initial setup would have been better with a canned solution to build on. The defaults will leave you vulnerable and needs to be locked down more. It would be better to have it locked down and then turn off options as needed. This is a better safe then sorry way to be with AV.

The most powerful Antivirus tool, to manage threats for a company's systems

Pros

The intuitive and very explicit console helps a lot in the handling of security events configured, added to its versatility in implementation is very surprising, just by having more than 7 way of installing the client.

It really is a tool that greatly simplifies the management of threats and vulnerabilities that desktop computers and servers can have.

Cons

The cost is somewhat high; but once you understand the advantages offered by your administration; will realize that it was worth it.

Complete protection that takes care of everything for us

Pros

It can accurately detect, prevent or remove any spam, malware or virus to ensure that our physical, virtual, and cloud systems are well-protected and secure at all times. It scans every hard disc and usb drive and sends you a report every month. Many outbreaks and problems have been averted because of this software, so it gives us a huge relief to have it.
It’s so easy to use that our system administrator just had to set it and forget it and it took care of the rest. Update rollouts and monitoring can be done in a single dashboard, so it’s very convenient.

Cons

Full-system scans can take a considerable amount of time and can slow down the machine a lot. However, it is optional and the administrator can just schedule it when the systems are not in use.

Easy enterprise AV management

Worth using as is easy to configure overall and deployment into a larger marketplace

Pros

Easy deployment to our international locations managing thousands on clients. Very agile and user friendly, easy policy configuration and adaptable to business needs.

Cons

Policy management can be misleading, does need time spent to test and configure initially before wide scale deployment.

Top of the line protection

Pros

Trend Micro is a cut above its competitors in terms of overall security quality, user friendliness, and customer service. The suite we purchased for the company was used on all 8 computers and was a constant source of relief for administrators. Trend Micro offers a range of top of the line cyber security packages and we found that Enterprise Security Suite worked best for us.

Cons

This software is a bit pricier than its competitors, though it offers comparable protection. The primary upgrade for the price tag is the user interface, which is definitely a breath of fresh air.

Fantastic Protection

Pros

Very simple to set up, runs automatically in background, protects from many sources, automatic reporting feature is top-notch

Cons

So far, after 3 years of using the product, I have not had any issues whatsoever, so I have no cons to report

It is very good because it protects machines and servers easy to manage with its centralized console

Pros

The centralized administration of several OfficeScan servers in a LAN and WAN network and the last recent update in less than 24 hours and less depending on the needs for the effective handling of the traces from the cloud

Cons

The only drawback with this antivirus is that it is very heavy on the clients and when the update of the traces in the clients fails, problems are generated in the server officescan due to the excessive use of the CPU at the level of hanging it and prevents it from being able to update the other clients

Specialized in eliminating security gaps on network.

Pros

Trend Micro Enterprise security suite protect your network from malicious, unauthorized and harmful attacks. The suite has endpoint security, mac support, mobile and control for management. It easy use for administrator, just install the platform and configure the policy and the system will do the rest protecting your investment.

Cons

Trend Micro security has different type of suite, make sure to choose proper package for your company complete protection requirement.

Just switched from on premise to a hosted solution and things got even better!

Easy to use and implement while providing a high level of security to our network that can be managed remotely from anywhere with an Internet connection.

Pros

Since switching to the hosted solution version management of the software and software clients has become even easier. Updates roll out and alerts are easier than ever to manage! Rules and policies are made in a pinch without any prior experience of TrenMicro systems.

Cons

Compatibility with Windows XP is limited but understandable. We have XP machines that operate legacy software for manufacturing equipment that don't have an Internet connection but are connected to the local area network so we still require AV to be installed.

It is 100% effective against malicious codes, I love this software!

Pros

The best thing is that it is 100% effective against all types of malicious software, it is very effective against phishing, this tool also protects privacy in social networks

Cons

Its impact on system performance is a bit above of others antivirus. It would be wonderful if it were available in Spanish to take advantage of the features of this tool.

this is a good solution alternative to keep the computer safe from viruses and malware, functional

Pros

Good virus and malware detector, the password manager is good, and provides good protection against ramsonware software.

Cons

It seems to me that the help section needs improvement and is a bit hungry for resources sometimes the computers computerize

We love TREND MICRO!

Complete virus security. Trend does a superior job at keeping our company safe and free from spam and viruses.

Pros

The ease of use of this software is amazing. We literally set it and forget it and it manages itself. Being able to deploy a software that can run itself with minimal support is priceless.

Cons

The install took a long time. Had to install clients on every machine which took several days to complete. Well worth it though.

Trend Micro is the biggest piece of bad security software i have ever seen. I could write a program that randomly chose files and deleted them as "malicious" and still have a better success rate than the useless product you have created. The amount of fa

Never touch this turd

Pros

none at all. best feature is uninstaller .The sales team is hard at work shoving this turd down every business' throat..

Cons

Trend Micro is the biggest piece of bad security software i have ever seen. I could write a program that randomly chose files and deleted them as "malicious" and still have a better success rate than the useless product you have created. The amount of false positives is ridiculous and the restore tool you need to download to restore an incorrectly quarantined file has not been able to restore a single file. Useless piece of crap.

I use trend micro from 2010

Pros

In company, computer users click diffirient porno and virus sites. Trend micro best of against these stuations. Also you can scan every hard disc, usb drives so trend micro send you reports monthly. Some antivurs programs after you install you machine starts working very slow. But after trend micro installation you will not see bad stuation with you machine. Machine speed will be good performance.

Cons

It is not easy say any disadvantage of trend micro. Actually I didnt see any disadvantage of this software.

Not my favorite before, but Trend Officescan has come a long way.

Pros

Has many features, if you have the full package. Just what you would expect of a Security Product.

Really improved over the years. We have seen significant reductions in user reported AV and malware issues. These latest version improved scanning and catching.

Client updates released via the console are efficient and quiet. Management from the console is fair and fairly straightforward.

Cons

All the improvements and features come at a cost. Seems to be really resource heavy on machines. As compared to past products or some other brands I have worked with.

False positive hits that need to be remediated. I know all AV may have some but this seems a bit above "normal". It becomes a firedrill when suddenly something we had used for years because "suspicious" and flagged.

One or 2 times we had a bad update from Trend causing an impact in about a 1 year stretch, last such issue was about 6 months ago. Note - Trend helped remediate this quickly.
I cannot measure this with other products so Im not sure how this experience measures up.

Easy to setup, not so easy to fit your environment

Easier to setup in complex environments and the interface, i think, is more user-friendly than other tools.

Pros

Central console for management, intelligent download of packages or updates, easy to detect some malware.

Cons

Slowdown the machine sometimes, and depending of the hardware, the machine becomes really slow to use.

TrendMicro Review

Pros

This is a great product. Very easy to deploy and update. Simple dashboard to monitor clients and push updates

Cons

no cons with the software at this point of time. Very easy to use product. would recommend to companies looking for AV solution

We are using this software to protect all our PCs, desktops and servers endpoints.

Pros

i am using this software in our company for more then 4 year(may be company s using this before i joined this as well) and what i feel it have a tremendous improvement in UI in recent release that helps administrator while setting this up.Spam filter is very much accurate. Any malware or virus detection is good and i have never seen any outbreaks till now. We found it very effective in detecting, removing or preventing and virus from infecting our systems or data.

Cons

Documentation is something that can be improved here.Licensing is over-complex and need to be improved for different features/variations. Need improvements on spyware protection front.
