Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite, with XGen Reviews

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.

1. For malware, botnet threat detection, and prevention.
2. To reduce the risk of information loss.
3. To monitor communication within your network.
4. To assess potential vulnerabilities and proactively protect endpoints, servers and applications.

Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite is more than handy and helpful to store passwords for websites and applications. In our Finance Department, there are literally hundreds of passwords to keep organized and it is difficult to maintain, particularly with changes. The ability to schedule scans during non-peak work times is another great feature that puts the Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite on my top ten list!

For our school, Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite is a perfect fit. As new computers are purchased, Trend Micro is purchased at the same time and it updates regularly. I would think that Trend Micro is well suited for any company that uses technology. We will continue to use it with each of our computers.

Protection against malware, ransomware. Easy to use. A password manager is a good tool with all the passwords that we maintain.

1. Overall a well-rounded platform for small to medium-sized businesses. I don't think this would be a good solution for a large business.
2. Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite with XGen helps decrease critical data loss.
3. The Sandbox option is optional.
4. Office 365 security is only included in Smart Protection Complete.
5. Gives you the option to store passwords for applications in your environment and also URL passwords.

If you need just a quick, easy product to install, this would not be the product. If you have extensive time, staff, and no other deadlines, you might give this a try. But if you are short-staffed and only have the TM instructions, it might be tougher. I would recommend having staff on hand that has prior TM experience.

A scenario where Trend Micro Smart Protection Suite did well was when a virus was found in the system and blocked from further spreading in the network due to Trend Micro.
Some less appropriate issues would be flagging legit items as virus. I see a lot of spyware and adware issues but there are no specifics on the issue, only that it was found and removed.

Suited for small businesses and medium businesses with someone to be able to manage the software. But it has some drawbacks and with larger sized environments, and it may be an issue to get this to work for on a normal basis because of the drawbacks. It's a lot of work to keep this software moving and communicating.
