we sell the solution to our customers. The mail is routed to trendmicro servers where it is checked and then returned to our mailserver. You can create rules for checking mail, spam, attachment size, you can specify blacklist or whitelist, search the logs to understand which rules have been applied to each single incoming mail.
  • spam and threat detection
  • whitelist/blacklist
  • search in logs to find problem or errors
  • sometimes there are false positive and you have to check logs and rules and create exceptions
PRO: all companies that need an antispam, antivirus. It should not be activated if it is not possible to deactivate the anti-spam provided by the provider. you have to check the in/out of the mail a few days to verify false positives and manage the rules.
CONS: It is too expensive for small companies, it's better to use services offered by the mail provider.

  • eliminating the threat before it enters the organization makes the network more secure
  • You don't have to check all PCs when a user clicks on a fake link because the email is delete before.
  • eliminate spam and ads
It's a simple solution to configure and monitor, you just need to edit records in dns and spf. there are pre-set security rules that can be modified and implemented very simply. You can quickly check the path of an email and the rules that checked the email to understand the cause of the block

  • Overall Trend Micro Email Security is superb and good choice. Nothing negative impact on business and working process of PC.
I was going through some of the selected tools (Avast Email Security, Cisco Cloud Email Security and Heimdal Email Security) but they are a bit complicated to implement and use. So I heard about Trend Micro Email Security and start researching about it and I found it's an amazing tool to use in our business without any specific knowledge of this tool.

Most of the viruses we see now days come as an attachment in an email.
Trend Micro Email Security helped the company by allowing users to understand the
proper methods of destroying spam and virus messages.
I have seen some instances of cryptolocker and advised to get some email security.
This product allows maximum configuration for your domain to security as best as possible.
Alerts you of suspicious activity within your console.
  • Email Spam and Virus Scans
  • User Acknowledgement
  • Great Support
  • More Remote Features
  • Better scripting capabilities
  • Deployment innovations
Trend Micro Email Security is well suited for business with over 100 users that have hard time with
spoofing, spam and malware within email functionality.
It would not be well suited in a smaller environment that has more of a handle of these type of issues.
It could be more of a hassle and too much for smaller environments.

I use it at my company to ensure any malicious emails attempts, spam, phishing gets detected. It is good protection but can be a little difficult to use. Stopped every malicious file we attempted to download and blocked every phishing scheme and malicious website we tried to access. Highly recommend TrendMicro.
  • Spam filter.
  • Phishing detection.
  • Bad websites.
  • Malicious files.
  • Take less memory resources, so the computer does not slow down.
  • More frequent product updates.
  • Make it easier to set up.
It is great when opening websites as there is web recognition technology. This software blocks the entire suspicious website where if a threat originated, displaying warning messages and adding additional information about each threat, and why the website was blocked in the detailed activity reports.

  • Better productivity.
  • Safety.
TrendMicro does a very good job vs the competitors. I just don't have much experience in my organization as this is much more for the IT Helpdesk. However, I can tell Trend Micro is an excellent choice at stopping malware threats, it is very good for our organization. Great product, highly recommended!!

Trend Micro Email Security is actively used for every mailbox in our entire organization, by everyone without exception. We have been using it for 5-6 years as the most important link of our mail security chain. The greater the importance of security today, the more important is mail protection in case of targeted, untargeted attacks from outside.
  • Mail analytics SPF, DKIM and DMARC
  • Known threats (spam, malware, malicious URLs and graymail)
  • Unknown threats (malware, url) detection
  • Keyword Filter, Domain Filter.
  • It would be great if there was a structure where users would approve or rate their own mails.
  • Outlook add-in would be nice.
It does not matter whether the service you receive mail from is local exchange, cloud Microsoft Office 365 or any other email service provider.In your domain management, you forward your MX records to the Inbound Servers area in the Domain interface of Trend Micro Email Security itself. And all your incoming emails go through Trend Micro Email Security first.In the same way, you open the outbound servers side and the protection starts.

  • Since everything happens on the cloud, a server, software, etc. does not create an e-mail.
  • Security has no set price, because customer trust cannot be bought with money.The return on this investment equals all of our customer confidence.
Trend Micro Email Security has a really simple interface for first integration and then policy creation. When you complete these steps, you can start using immediately and make even complex rules with the click of a mouse without getting lost between the pages. With the effect of our trust in the Trend Micro ecosystem, we love and prefer this product much more.

It is active in all mailboxes.

There are 5 people in total, but there is almost no need to interfere with the configuration, except for monitor or mail quarantine operations, everything works in a dynamic structure.
  • understand whether external e-mails come from real people.
  • Immediate recognition of known pests.
  • sandbox scanning for unknown malware.
The product really does everything it can and offers it very simply. In other words, after using it for many years like us, it feels as if the email system could not exist without Trend Micro Email Security. Using email in a corporate structure without this or any other product is the job of brave people.
