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

"The Application Guard and ByteGuard are useful features."
"We are quite security-focused. Blackberry Protect as an endpoint solution for our service really delivers what we are expecting."
"It is a good endpoint solution. It is very easy to manage and detect the threat immediately. It will take the necessary actions."
"The initial setup of CylancePROTECT is very easy."
"Blackberry Protect offers endpoint protection. It's easy to deploy. It's scalable and stable."
"The solution is stable."
"Does malware analysis. Blocks WannaCry and other attacks that have come out."
"​Centralized dashboard online which can be used for managing a huge product."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint is stable."
"The solution offers very good endpoint security."
"The product is fairly reliable."
"I recommend Trellix Endpoint Security to others as it seems like one of the industry standards and is fairly stable."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
"The manageability of the product itself is its most valuable aspect. You have the underlying EPO, and on top of it, you can deploy the various components as you require. This is unlike other solutions like Symantec where you have to deploy everything or nothing. With this solution, you can choose to only deploy antivirus or only deploy a firewall, or only something else. I choose the components and that deployment is done through EPO. It makes manageability very flexible."
"It is easy to use, flexible, and stable. Because it is a cloud-based solution and it integrates all endpoints of the cloud, we can do an IOC-based search. It can search the entire enterprise and tell us the endpoints that are possibly compromised."
"Would benefit with the addition of DLP features."
 

Cons

"Making the dashboards a bit modern to make them easier to search would also be helpful."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"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."
"I'd like them to do software distribution too, but they said that that's architecturally not at the product line."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"Enhancing the product's detection rates and streamlining the user interface for easier management in daily operations would be beneficial improvements."
"We would like to see secure integration and multi-factor authentication to be able to access the administration dashboard."
"The solution needs better dashboards that are easier to use."
"The email protection isn't efficient enough, and I'd like to see DLP features in the next release."
"The main area for improvement is the integration with Microsoft Windows Hello, which includes Face ID or fingerprint-based authentication. Currently, they don't support either, so users have to type in the username and password."
"McAfee Endpoint Protection could improve the word control feature."
"A policy-editing console should be added."
"We would like to see all the features available on cloud."
"The VirusScan needs to improve in order to detect ransomware and other advanced threats."
"The product could be flexible and offer better pricing."
"The solution lacks device control."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"CylancePROTECT is an affordable solution."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a seven out of ten."
"The solution provides me with competitive pricing."
"This cost of the license is approximately $5 USD monthly per user."
"The tool is not that expensive."
"​Shop around for sure and be assured the price you pay will be close to other solutions available, but even at a slight mark-up from the other solutions, you are getting real endpoint protection versus nothing more than a cheap security blanket that might keep you warm at night."
"The monthly fee is $55 USD per user."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be made free."
"Annual license fee is good"
"Trellix Endpoint Security is an inexpensive platform."
"For each computer that is connected to the server McAfee charges us for each computer based on our license agreement."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not very good, and I would rate its cost three out of five, though I won't be able to mention how much its actual price is."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"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."
"MVISION is intended as an enterprise product and it is priced like one. This solution is within the price range of competitors at the enterprise level."
