Kandji vs. Trend Micro Mobile Security for Enterprises

Kandji would be excellent for a company that has Mac fleets and is currently using Intune or Jamf as their MDM. Kandji is cheaper than Jamf and way easy to configure than Intune.

This software is good at providing security to mobile devices. If someone is doing and performing major tasks of his organization via phone then he should have this software installed in his device so as to ensure protection and to protect data from any mishap of the attack of viruses and Malware. It is also good in blocking calls and spam messages.

Switching from our old MDM to Kandji: "We'll set you right up with an integration specialist" and it'll be "so easy." Greatly incorrect. The change took months and was a disaster at best. So many things I had to figure out that they never mentioned, or I had to keep going back to them to get more information. "Oh, we forgot to mention that!" - said about a dozen times. Also, I had to go to our former MDM to ask them how to do it because "Kandji can only help on the Kandji side of things - not the other MDM side." Well yes, but then don't make it sound like you can and will do that part in the first place!

I have not run into any issues when contacting support. My issues were resolved with ease.

Overall, my organization is an iOS-heavy company, and Kandji struck a good balance of user experience and good automations.

Its not on the individual points where Trend stands out but the holistic security you get. In general other vendors buy solutions, sell then integrate into their product portfolio. This approach which leads to installation and interoperability issues as well as adding more screens to watch for the real life view on the endpoint. Trend, in my experience, do not launch immature applications to market and when it comes out it works well with the other Trend applications in the estate, it plays nice with others also.

• They promised us we could add devices as needed. I even had that written in an email. However, they rescinded that promise and required us to add devices in buckets of 50. That means, since we had 55 users, we had to pay for 100 licenses.
• Password issues were made much worse by using Kandji instead of our old MDM (Hexnode).
• Overall, Kandji created major headaches with laptop instead of improving.

Incentivized

• It reduces the risk of a data breach.
• Reduces the risk of devices getting infected by malware.
• Increasing our awareness of potential threats for employees.
