Featured Reviews

Alexander Zhuravel - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly scalable tool that ensures its users face no problems while using it as a backup system
The tool is scalable and is currently being used on over 2,000 nodes. So, our company doesn't count the number of clients we have, but we do count the number of nodes, specifically referring to file system nodes, backup nodes, database nodes, virtual machine nodes, and blockchain nodes, which we use for file-based applications. According to the traffic, a backup of five petabytes of data can be done for a month.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security ( /categories/endpoint-protection-platform-epp ) can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems. Another issue is with end-users outside the network, where the agent handler sometimes fails to deploy the product properly. Improvements are needed in forensic analytics to detect specific vulnerabilities. It would also help if detection specifics were identified more quickly and the problem-solving process accelerated, especially to meet larger clients' expectations.
