Trellix MOVE AntiVirus needs improvements in threat detection, performance, user-friendliness, integration, and advanced protection capabilities.
Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.
Threat prevention should be their first priority.
Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.
This solution will consume more resources for the end users, which is an area for improvement.

Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is considered reasonably priced, offering discounts and valuable security benefits at approximately $35 per user annually.
It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it.

I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
CrowdStrike provides a lot of visibility in their tool.
The moment the user clicked on the file, it was quarantined thanks to CrowdStrike.
We are using Slack Intelligence, which is also from Trellix, and Threat Intelligence, which are valuable features of this solution.

Chintan-Vyas - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to set up with good behavior-based analysis but needs a single-click recovery option
Most organizations are currently looking for a scheduled scan to meet their compliance needs. Other players like Symantec and Trend Micro, FireEye, et cetera, are still providing the signature-based regular scheduled scans also, which is not available in CrowdStrike. That is one parameter that we feel should be there in CrowdStrike. CrowdStrike is only working on the dynamic or the files under execution. CrowdStrike is not scanning the static files. The product could be more accurate in terms of performance. We'd like to have a single-click recovery option. With some machines getting corrupted by malware, we need an easy way to start with a blank slate if things happen. That one feature should be there in the EDR.
Ashford Asante - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralized system, less stress on the network and runs smoothly
It functions like a standard antivirus – I scan, I get reports... it gets the job done as I configure it. Overall, I'm satisfied with McAfee MOVE Antivirus. I haven't experienced any compatibility issues so far. So, it also offers good integration capabilities with other tools. The quality of the reports depends on what you're looking for. They can be good, bad, or average. Overall, the reporting functionality is adequate.
