Doesn't have daily updates, which is important for healthcare IT
I face challenges with the exclusion policy - it still scans folders we told it not to, causing issues. When we contact support, they tell us to update the latest agent, but we can't do that immediately due to medical device protocols and validation testing. I wish support would try to understand our issues better instead of giving this standard response. The machine learning feature they use often tells us to upgrade the agent or add things to the exclusion list, which isn't unacceptable. It's a very good and new technology as a tool and antivirus. But sometimes, it doesn't work properly with our medical devices and products, quarantining files it shouldn't even after we add them to exclusions. This is tricky for us.

Threat detection is effective, and the solution provides good control over device access, but it still needs better troubleshooting options for agent-related issues.
From an improvement perspective, I am looking for a way to troubleshoot situations where the endpoint agent becomes corrupted and requires reinstallation, as there is currently no option to resolve these issues without rebooting the system. I give it a rating of seven because, in today’s scenario, the portal is complicated to navigate. The Trellix Endpoint Security Platform dashboard is somewhat difficult to understand, and it takes considerable time to familiarize oneself with the tools and policies compared to other solutions. For on-premises deployment, I would also like to highlight that the architecture is quite complex, which is an area Trellix Endpoint Security Platform should consider improving.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"CylancePROTECT is very stable - we've had no issues with performance and no errors or bugs."
"It provides good insight into the programs, applications, or websites that may need attention."
"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."
"The solution runs in the background, and I do not need to care about it."
"The most valuable feature of CylancePROTECT is the support."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"I rate the tool a ten out of ten when it comes to the ease of use or management part."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"What I like most about McAfee MVISION Endpoint is that it's very user-friendly. You do need some knowledge on how to navigate the portal, but as soon as you've gained that knowledge, navigation will no longer be an issue. I have no complaints about McAfee MVISION Endpoint. For me, the product is perfect the way it is. It's great right now, and it's doing good as it is."
"The setup is not that complex. It takes five to ten minutes to set up."
"Their malware detection rate is excellent for all type of devices and the anti-theft products are good and easy to use."
"The most valuable features are the adaptive tech on McAfee."
"Provides protection against threats."
"The product can be installed in almost any environment"
"Trellix Endpoint Security seems to do a good job in terms of protecting my infrastructure from malware."
"The activation of features within ENS and the collection of threats into a single console is a strong point."
 

Cons

"The solution’s user interface could be improved."
"It is hard to manage."
"Making the dashboards a bit modern to make them easier to search would also be helpful."
"The solution’s technical support could be improved."
"​It needs real analysis of quarantined files. The EDR product isn't showing much right now."
"The high price of the product is an area of concern where improvements are required. The product's price should be more competitive."
"The user interface is outdated."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"I would like to see simple processing and reporting online."
"It has very good integrations. However, its integration with Palo Alto was not good, and they seem to be working on it at the backend. It is not very resource-hungry, but it can be even better in terms of resource utilization. It could be improved in terms of efficiency, memory sizing, and disk consumption by agents."
"Intrusion detection and intervention seem to be falling behind the competition."
"Upgrading to new versions isn't easy and it can take a long time. Also, other solutions' tamper protection features are better than FireEye's. Clients should have access to our local information, but they shouldn't change settings on the system itself."
"The agent is very heavy, so we have to ensure that we have a lightweight agent for Windows systems."
"The integration and display of the dashboards have to be done better."
"If you have another endpoint product running on the same machine, you have to fine tune functions from FireEye to avoid performance and user experience issues."
"The resolution time should be faster."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We went through a third party initially to do the renewal, but we won't be renewing, we will move on to something else."
"The product cost is about $5, per user, per month."
"The price is reasonable for us at the moment. I rate the overall solution an eight out of ten."
"CylancePROTECT is worth the money, but I'm not sure of its exact price. I can't remember off the top of my head."
"Do not get hung up on price. You pay for what you get and expensive will hurt one time, where cheap will hurt forever, especially if you fall victim to a ransom attack, etc.​"
"My company is on a yearly CylancePROTECT subscription. Price-wise, the solution is slightly expensive, so I'd rate it as eight out of ten."
"The licensing part of the product is too expensive compared to other solutions in the market."
"Review closely how many endpoints you actually need before buying into a pricing level. Deal and deal with the VAR of your choice."
"It is not that expensive. There is no additional cost. We got the entire bundle together."
"We had a discount when purchasing the solution because of the size of our company and we are happy with the price."
"Microsoft Defender is not cheap and from a cost perspective, Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is a better option."
"Pricing is fair."
"It is not so cheap in comparison to Sophos and other solutions."
"Licensing fees are paid yearly."
"Customers would need to purchase a license. If a customer purchases an MVISION Endpoint license, he may use that license to install ENS. It's a flexible license where you have the option to either use the McAfee security software or the Windows Defender managed by McAfee, which is MVISION Endpoint."
"The tool is affordable"
