We performed a comparison between Symantec Endpoint Encryption and Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Encryption solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The best feature of Symantec Endpoint Encryption is the encryption itself. Encryption truly is the way to go because nowadays we are living in an era of widespread server threats, and you need to encrypt your emails and documents because you never know who might get hold of them."
"The encryption feature is very good."
"The solution’s installation was easy."
"Disk encryption and file and folder encryption are the most valuable and used features. It is also very well integrated with Symantec Messaging Gateway and Symantec DLP, which is helpful in protecting any kind of information that goes outside. Symantec DLP catches an email and sends it to the encryption server. The encryption server encrypts the email and intimates to the user that confidential information is being sent out. The administrator can then take appropriate action."
"We use it for protecting accounts, which is its most valuable feature."
"We can extend it to all of the critical endpoints and the servers, and we can ensure the confidentiality of the data."
"The most valuable feature is that it works in the background so that the end-users are not aware of what is happening on the laptop."
"We have been very satisfied with the solution's security capabilities."
"The disk encryption is great."
"We use the solution for data encryption."
"Offers very good endpoint security solutions."
"The most valuable feature of Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption is security."
"The solution enables all the development and technical team members to work from home while, at the same time, ensuring the security of the work environment."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is the antivirus part it offers."
"Endpoint can give you the full details about how the attacker moved into and through your system. That description shows you each and every step up to the cabinet-level."
"Fast encryption feature."
"The GUI could use some enhancement, particularly in making option sets easier to locate on client machines."
"It was hard to install and took us about three months."
"Upgrades from one version to another may only sometimes be straightforward, especially if one needs a clearer understanding of the process."
"They have too high of a price tag. That's why they're losing the market share."
"There are some issues with the single sign-on with the active directory. We had a few problems related to the synchronization between the active directory and the login features of the Symantec products because the users made many password changes during the day. The time for synchronization with the solutions can be improved. I would like to see mobile encryption. There should be a possibility to include all the mobiles of a company in the console. Many customers are asking about encryptions for tablets or cell phones, but we don't have any product that we are comfortable with to recommend to our customers."
"The solution does slow down the device a little bit, once it's installed."
"I can only patch monthly. I don't know what the solution is there, besides being vulnerable for three weeks out of four. But there's got to be an option somehow."
"If for example, a user forgets the endpoint key, they cannot access their data. We need a support team that is a single point of contact for the IT entity to be trained and to have documentation for troubleshooting and managing the solution."
"I would like to see more integration. Good cloud-based solutions need to be arrayed. I'd like to see better integration with administrative tools as well as Active Directory integration."
"The user interface is a little challenging, especially for beginners. It's hard for new users to understand how to configure the correct access for each company function."
"In terms of what must be improved, I would say the support, the next feature, and the road map. I think all these must be improved, but the important thing to improve is the support."
"We had to use an integrator for the implementation of Trend Micro Endpoint Encryption. We have two people who work on this solution."
"It is not easy to integrate with third party solutions."
"In the next release, it would be better if it was more user-friendly. It is a little complicated for the average technical person. If they can make it more user-friendly, it would be much easier and more helpful."
"The product's scalability is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"There are recovery issues that arise."
