BlackBerry Protect (CylancePROTECT) vs. Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suite

The policies that you make is where it's key. The "less you let people do, the better it will be" so to speak. So if you really clamp down on a policy and don't let people do specific things, then it'll be better for you. It also helps to protect the "not so tech savvy" people as well. Basically the same thing as above, if you have users that need more flexibility, on occasion the policies might come into play and interfere if you're not careful.

With around 80 users and 150 devices (including 6 server instances), this solution served us very well, with instant admin notifications and scheduled overall reports. Detection appears extremely reliable, and the memory and CPU footprint of the service seemed less intrusive than Panda, which we had issues running on Terminal Services instances, as it seems to hog excessive memory allocation. Rollout was smooth and we never had an instance of a corrupt installation.

Incentivized

• Fast and Unobtrusive, users hardly notice that Cylance is running on their computer, except when it detects something malicious
• User interface is simple for end users, and the management interface is streamlined and easy to get started with. The management interface has a quick tutorial that comes up upon first login that explains all the different aspects of how to configure CylanceProtect.
• Customer support is fantastic - in that if you get stuck or need help understanding a feature/setting, they are quick to respond and help to ensure that your configuration is set as optimal as possible for your scenarios.

Incentivized

• Hybrid deployment, can be on-prem or cloud specific, we are using cloud based
• Central Control Manager capabilities to have control about what happens in the environment
• No need to have internal infrastructure to host further than your workstations or terminals
• No need to have dedicated team for security or endpoint protection
• Maintenance and updates are available just as released, no need to take actions on that side
• Great capabilities as a connected threat defense platform
• Endpoint protection features and quality for SMBs
• Cloud and collaboration platforms compatible including Office 365, Google Mail and On-Cloud Storage

• It would be great if there was a way for an administrator to make a file as safe from the end user device when a false positive has occurred (which is rare). At present and administrator has to log into the web console, create an exception and then wait 60-120 seconds for this to be effective on the end user device, still great, but this can be frustrating for users that are urgently trying to use the file.
• Executive reporting could be better. Just a single page dashboard report that could be included in other monthly reporting.

Incentivized

• 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.

It's simply been the best product I've used and tested within the past four years.

I work with hundreds of complex suppliers in healthcare and tech, and this company is more than just an extension of our business.

Installation and administration tools are fantastic. I found the endpoint policies to be not intuitive and clunky. The endpoint client was difficult to disable when trying to troubleshoot Apple issues and I often had to uninstall and then reinstall which was very time-consuming. Reporting is very useful and I was impressed with the reports I received.

I have only used CylancePROTECT support one time and they were very fast and responsive with the answers that solved my issue. That is the only reason I gave them a 7 as I have only had one interaction with them.

The few times I needed to contact support I was fully satisfied. They worked all the way through the issue, no matter how long it took, and made sure I had a permanent solution. I was pleased with the professionalism, courteousness, and knowledge of the product they were supporting.

Cylance, I believe is the only one that uses the predict and prevent execution of advanced threats and malware at the endpoint. Cylance is by far a superior product.

Avast was clunky, difficult to roll out, missed loads of malware on machines, and required that we purchase a separate license to install AV on our servers. Trend Micro could not have been any different. You just contact their sales department and get a demo, or even ask for a trial of sorts to test policy creations and client installation. You'll be obsessed with the whole process and the admin dashboard you have access to.

Incentivized

• We have the piece of mind that our endpoints are protected.
• We have more time to work on other projects as we don't have to worry about computers being on to have scheduled scans.
• Our computers CPU and RAM aren't going to be taken up with big process like typical anti-virus programs do.

Incentivized

• It has stopped several malicious items from getting into our system.
• It's also saved money over our previous Anti-Virus solution (Kaspersky)
• Ease of Setup/Use
