Featured Reviews

Zuhair Hasan

Manager, Information Technology Security at Nesma

Has good integration capability and provides information and events but improvement is needed in information retrieval speed

The best features are the comprehensive event collection and analysis. Once set up properly, we receive all events and information. The team analyzes our data and presents incidents to us. We can communicate with their team to escalate and resolve incidents. It has a feature we use to search for information about our environment and past incidents. This is very valuable. The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets.

Helps to monitor and detect cyberattacks

The tool's effectiveness depends on how you define your log sources. To build visibility of incoming and outgoing traffic, you need logs from perimeter defense, firewalls, web application firewalls, and endpoint protection. With good traffic visibility, incident response time is really quick. Trellix ESM provides situation awareness. On the dashboard, I can see outbound and inbound communications to known threat hosts, IPS/IDS activity, and threat intelligence of the perimeter defense in the firewall. This information helps preempt attacks.

"It is easy to use."

"It is user-friendly. The notification part of McAfee ESM is very easy."

"It blocks the things which are not to be allowed. It has an adaptive mode where it learns for itself."

More Trellix ESM pros

Cons

"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology. They also improve their correlation engine. In addition to collecting logs from devices, they can collect the traffic and then correlate these logs and the traffic information."

"The main issue for improvement is the platform's slowness in presenting information. Retrieving information can take a little time when clicking on something."

"Cloud integration has room for improvement because they're not full-fledged to integrate with the cloud solutions that come. They use different integration platforms to bring in data, and that needs to be improved."

"We cannot add new data sources to the most recent version."

"There's no software support from McAfee."

"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."

"It cannot integrate with our Next-Generation Firewall and few applications such as Cisco ACI."

"The product’s alert response feature needs improvement. It could be more flexible and secure."

"I would like to see fingerprint recognition included in the next release of this solution."

"The disk space needed for events is not clear. In all clients, we had at least more than 100GB free that we could not use."

More Trellix ESM cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"They have changed the pricing policy. Its price is competitive. Its price is less than half of the price of QRadar, LogRhythm, and Splunk."

"Regarding pricing, I'd say it's in the middle range. Pricing is very good compared to others."

"The licensing cost is based on EPS."

"McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."

"You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."

"The price is good. It's moderate. We follow a pay-as-you-go model. There are different models available, and they can also be monthly. You can choose monthly or yearly. It's very flexible. If our existing customers exceed the current plan, you can just call McAfee and get it extended."

"Regarding pricing, Trellix ESM is not that expensive. It's less than half the cost of IBM QRadar."

"We pay for our licensing fees on a yearly basis, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."

"The product is slightly expensive."

"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
