Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite, with XGen

The best [way] for Trend Micro [Smart Protection Suite, with XGen] to stand out, would be to install it throughout the network, both computers and servers[.] I recommend this solution for both small companies and very large companies since currently the security of our data is very critical and many times the costs that they lead to when suffering from an attack are too high. [A] system like this is worth investing in.

• Provides better integration across multiple platforms.
• Automatic and re-settable time for scan.
• Includes a message security gateway for specific applications like Office 365 SharePoint.

• Multiple agents for different pieces of the software and they don't talk.
• Mac install is super difficult and if I update the OS on a Mac it breaks the OS if Trend Micro Smart is not compatible with that version.
• Communication drops to the server randomly and has to work with tech support to get it working again.

We deployed the trial version of Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite, with XGen. The trial was applied to 3 users including one from accounts to check all angles. Considering the overall performance, as detailed in prior specifics, we found it to be a very close contended to Spybot-Search and Destroy, that we have been using since 10++ years. In fact, since the later does not have an andriod app, we are, most likely, shifting to this product after locating and evaluating 2-3 close competitors. Our experience with Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite, with XGen began with its free "Trend micro housecall" around 8 years before. The minuses - 1. It does seem to be a little more resource intensive vs. Spybot search and destroy 2. The absence of cookie cleaning and associated tiered options (the kind of cookies I want to retain or delete) is one big gap

I have only had to contact technical support once, which in itself shows what a good product this is, and I received spot-on advice from the person I contacted.

1. Spybot-Search and Destroy does not have an andriod app - its definitely lagging behind here since a non-tech user like me would want a single brand for both - the computer and the smartphone 2. Spybot, on the other hand, has remarkable depth in pulling out the deepest malware - noted since 10++ years 3. Spybot is also relatively "lighter" for the computer and fits in extremely comfortably on windows 7 units with just 3GB RAM ("dumb terminals")!
