![]() In addition, you can set up and apply policies per group. If you check the box next to one or more of the devices, you can perform updates on the device, or encrypt and decrypt its storage using whichever native software is available: BitLocker for Windows or File Vault for macOS. Once you add a device, it will show up in the group you selected during the agent install. The last option is mainly for Android, iOS, and Chromebook devices (for which it provides a browser extension). It gives you the option to download an installer, install on the endpoint you are logged in with, or send an installer link. To do this, you can add agents from the security agents page. Overall, we felt Trend Micro's new dashboard shows everything you need to see at a glance, which is a significant improvement over previous iterations.īefore you get any meaningful data, though, you’ll need to add some devices and find some threats to detect. There is also a quick heads-up on which security agents are online and need updating. This includes web, cloud synchronization, email, removable storage, or local drive. Below this, infections are broken down by channel. Getting details on these is a simple drill-down click. It’s broken down at the top by known threats, unknown threats, and policy violations. The dashboard makes identifying detections simple. When you login to Trend Micro Worry-Free Services Advanced, the first thing you'll see is a newly redesigned interface. ![]() The more advanced tiers add XDR features, which frankly we'd have liked to have seen in the version we tested, considering its price. We tested the next step up, Worry-Free Services Advanced, which adds email, cloud storage, and Microsoft 365 protection. The basic Worry-Free tier supports endpoint protection for Windows, macOS, Android, and iOS. Even in that class, however, it's competitive with other small business platforms, like Avast or Kaspersky. Bitdefender also provides more feature value for the buck, yet these advanced features will appeal more to larger organizations than the small business customer Trend Micro seems most interested in. Unfortunately, the company doesn't disclose pricing for those tiers without contacting a sales rep, so get set for some haggling.Ĭompared to the other offerings we reviewed, Trend Micro is priced well above Editors' Choice winner Sophos Intercept X, but it's in line with Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra. Beyond this, Trend Micro also offers Worry-Free XDR and Worry-Free with Managed XDR Services. That places it among the priciest products we saw this time around, even though we only tested the second pricing tier, which adds email protection on top of basic endpoint coverage. In our last review, the platform cost around $37.75 per user per year, while this latest version goes for $59.87 per user per year. While the product has a deeper feature set than the last time we reviewed it, Trend Micro has also raised its price. Still, some performance issues and the lack of patch management keep it behind our endpoint protection Editors' Choice winners, Bitdefender GravityZone Ultra, Sophos Intercept X, and F-Secure Elements. Overall, it's a good choice for smaller companies that have deep pockets and don't need patch management or mobile device management (MDM). Trend Micro Worry-Free Advanced has changed not only its name this time around, but also its feature set and its price. ![]() Best Hosted Endpoint Protection and Security Software.
