    As mentioned earlier, privacy and financial transaction threats will continue to risk with the current and rapid rise in tech tools/computer software. And handling such threats is NOT a core competency for many businesses. So, a paid version of such a robust systems comes well recommended - especially for those users who often use mobile banking or pay via cellphone apps

    If you're looking for basic signature-based anti-virus at a reasonable price, F-Secure Protection for Business could be a good choice. It does a good job for anti-virus but doesn't include the more advanced features of more expensive products like intrusion detection, forensics, and protection of zero day exploits. It may work well in combination with other tools.

    • Anti-virus (classic signature-based). This is a classic anti-virus tool without some of the fancy bells and whistles of more expensive products.
    • Real-time protection. The product can do filesystem scheduled scans as well as real-time analysis of files.
    • Browser protection. It comes with a decent browser plugin that can block access to malicious sites.

    Cons
    Trend Micro
    • During run-time you would feel that systems are slow.
    • Ability to detect cyber attack and response to cyber attacks can be improved.
    • Support for advanced malware, botnets can be improved.
    • Some investigation module are provided as optional add-on, so they should be integrated.

    • It does not provide "next gen" features like zero day protection, forensics, intrusion detection and analysis.
    • The management interface is clunky and difficult to use.
    • Real-time protection and firewall services can interfere with legitimate activities at times and make it difficult to troubleshoot.

    Usability
    Trend Micro
    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.

    Everything I've used and installed before and since has been easier to implement and support. TM had attractive pricing, however, that was negated by the overall experience.

    F-Secure stacks up very well against competitors like McAfee and Norton. Cost is very reasonable, performance is great, and it does as good (or better) a job of these more well-known products. F-Secure particularly works well for non-profits looking to negotiate for a more reasonable rate.

    Return on Investment

    • We have stopped multiple infections of ransomware from spreading.
    • Lost some productivity when database crashed
    • Updates tend to slow system down

    • Positive - very generous discounts for non-profits make this inexpensive compared to other products.
    • F-Secure has caught some (but not all) malware incidents on our workstations, which have saved us time and money.
    • The cost/benefit ratio is very high. For what you're getting, this is a reasonably priced product.
