Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Automatically updates itself and sends to each desktop. I don't need to manage it much. The control panel also tells me which machines should be looked at manually.

Pros

Pushes updates to clients
Sends alerts to email
Easy install on new machines

Cons

Scans typically take a long time
Background scans take up a lot of CPU

Return on Investment

Just keeps the computers safe without having to do much.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use the full suite of features including endpoint security, email security, and cloud app security to protect our network and devices from all types of cybersecurity threats.

Pros

Adds a second layer to office 365 filtering and often finds things that were missed.
Built in XDR provides more details on a threat than you'd normally have.
Overall Easy to use but still very powerfull.
Built in web filtering is easy to use and helps when users are offsite.

Cons

It would be better if there were an unload password for each policy instead of one for the whole organization.
We have one app that gets blocked with no log of any reason why, there should be a better way to troubleshoot that other than just closing the AV every time. Allow listing has not worked in this case.
When something is blocked it should specify exactly which setting or feature blocked it to make it easier to use the allow list or adjust.

Return on Investment

Reduction email security threats
Setup and management costs are low
Low learning curve

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We migrated from Panda 360 adaptive defense after Trend became our MSP providers' recommended next-gen AV solution. Being able to centrally manage all devices within the business from a cloud console (Around 150), we needed the ability to set different device profiles for different business needs, along with real-time reporting.

Pros

Real Time Reporting.
Next Generation Streaming Analysis.
Profile Configuration to suite.
Easy Deployment.
Good Value.
Granular Web Reputation Controls.

Cons

Some Configuration areas are limited.
Installation speed can be slow even on modern devices with enterprise-speed net connections.
Revisions to Web Categorization globally is clunky.
Lacks Device controls such as remote reboot.

Return on Investment

Granular Browsing Control is a boon for safety and focus.
Live dashboard of the enterprise environment is surprisingly bountiful in detail.
Very much "Fire and Forget" Solution once configured.
