Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Suite vs. WatchGuard XCS (Discontinued)

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.

I like it because it tends to block out some of the things that shouldn't get in our inboxes, but they somehow end up in our mailboxes sometimes, not a big deal. The main thing that needs to be blocked out is any phishing and it keeps those emails out!

• 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

• Price increases regularly.
• When you actually want to uninstall the agent, sometimes it will refuse to do so. Luckily TM has a special uninstall tool if needed.
• Can take awhile to dial in the thresholds against false positives.

• I would like to see why the multi WAN doesn't work at times!
• Can be a little slow.
• Some things are blocked for no reason.

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.

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.

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.

I suggest WatchGuard because they offer so much. They offer the way to keep email and websites blocked that don't belong and they also help us connect to the server whenever we remote in from work. Everything is done with so much ease and there is not any hassle.
