Sooraj Makkancherrry - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Shreyansh Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Our main antivirus tool and offers adaptive threat prevention tool
The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious and time consuming task. After raising the call onto the technical support portal, usually receive a notification after 24 hours. It usually takes 3 to 4 days to conclude and resolve the issue. If 24/7 online support or a phone line where we could speak directly with technical support for real-time troubleshooting, that would be very helpful. Licensing is another aspect where trellix should look into. Different purchases are grouped together in single user account get mixed up. Categorization of purchases and their grant numbers is not available to end user.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Even if an endpoint loses connection to the Internet, I know that endpoint is protected against 99.99% of the threats in the wild today."
"The solution is very quick at easily changing the levels of protection for each computer and the server."
"Has good RAM capacity for the power I need"
"What I like best about CylancePROTECT is its accuracy, as it doesn't give many false positives."
"The platform's most valuable features are the malware detection capabilities."
"CylancePROTECT is a fairly decent antivirus."
"The solution is extremely scalable. It's got the hybrid functionality, it's got the system functionality and cloud functionality as well."
"It does a good job of protecting us."
"The product can be installed in almost any environment"
"It has a feature called Isolation. If a device is compromised, we can connect it to our SOC, and no one would be able to access it. This way we can limit the damage to the network while we are investigating."
"The setup is not that complex. It takes five to ten minutes to set up."
"The performance is good."
"The independent modules are very good."
"I recommend Trellix Endpoint Security to others as it seems like one of the industry standards and is fairly stable."
"If the network has seen something, we can use that to put a block to all the endpoints."
"The exploit guard and malware protection features are very useful. The logon tracker feature is also very useful. They have also given new modules such as logout backup, process backup. We ordered these modules from the FireEye market place, and we have installed these modules. We are currently exploring these features."
 

Cons

"The product must make the interface a little more user-friendly."
"The price for this EPP platform is expensive and could be improved."
"I would like to see them fix the alerting system so that the endpoint reporting is a bit more streamlined."
"It is hard to manage."
"It could have integration with industrial base HMIS or Human Machine Interfaces Solutions. This is the industrial environment where you have a control center for all the automation that's happening, whether it is oil, gas, or chemical manufacturing. They often have to set up a computer at the back and watch the other stuff to get alerts. In these autonomous or on-premises environments, they often don't have access to email readily. Integration with other industrial solutions, such as HMIS, will allow them to communicate and get an alert that something has been found. This way, they can react to it sooner than having somebody watch the screen and keep checking the screen. Rockwell has its own suite. Similarly, Honeywell has its own suite. There's also an independent HMI/historian solution provider out there called VTSCADA. We actually get asked if we can get it to show up on a screen, which is difficult. Getting those alerts to work within an industrial environment would be a huge plus."
"​Work on the math model. We are catching a lot of false positives, which gets to be a pain at the start of a deployment."
"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 email protection isn't efficient enough, and I'd like to see DLP features in the next release."
"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."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint could improve by an overall simplification of the solution."
"Intrusion detection and intervention seem to be falling behind the competition."
"It is a very heavy tool, unfortunately."
"Most of these types of solutions including others, such as Carbon Black and FortiEDR, all have the same features. However, Carbon Black is the leader when it comes to being robust and user-friendly and this solution should improve in those areas to stay more competitive."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be 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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing part of the product is too expensive compared to other solutions in the market."
"It is expensive, but not unreasonable."
"The solution provides me with competitive pricing."
"Currently, we have competitive pricing for Cylance, which is affordable enough to consider."
"The solution's pricing is around the same as most EDRs but slightly behind some of the major ones."
"Our licensing cost for the solution is around $4,000 for six months. There are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"We pay our license on a yearly basis and have just renewed for two years."
"We would just add more if there are new users, but right now you just need one license for per user."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and quite reasonable compared to other similar products."
"They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software."
"The product pricing is high."
"Licensing fees are paid yearly."
"It was an annual fee. There was just one overall fee."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is not a cheap solution...I don't think any costs are involved in the maintenance of the solution."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"The current pricing is much better than before because they now offer product-related promotions along with some changes in product licensing. The new pricing model is better than before."
