Good user behavioral analysis and helpful patching but needs better support services
Some of our products have a first and second line owned by us. We are giving support services to the customers instead of the vendor. Some other products are supported directly by the technology vendor, however. Technical support from the vendor is very bad. Usually, when the customer submits a ticket, they put a severity level on the case. Whenever the case is very important, and there is a real malfunction in the product on the customer side, and there is something down that needs someone to have a look immediately, it takes more time than it should to even engage with the customer. When someone has to contact the customer and have a remote session within the customer environment, they sometimes lack in terms of communication with the customer. The support centers are located in the East and not all have an acceptable level of English in order to communicate directly with the customer.

Easy to implement, good integrations, and helpful technical support services
It is mainly an antivirus product for both desktops as well as servers. It has additional modules which can be enabled in fast manner. It uses the same agent and additional modules like FIM, Filing Integrity Management and ELP services.  The product is easy to implement and easy to integrate with…

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Trellix Security Endpoint can promptly isolate any host machines directly from the console. If alerts are received and isolation is necessary, it can be accomplished through the console. The console itself holds significant value, accessible through a browser and allowing remote actions via cloud login."
"It provides a lot of information and great visibility, with really great options for managing the environment."
"Technical support is always available and very helpful."
"The solution offers very good endpoint security."
"The most valuable features are the adaptive tech on McAfee."
"The product is easy to use."
"I feel McAfee Endpoint Security to be a good, mature product."
"It's quite easy to install agents."
"It has improved functions by bringing us complete security on our clients' virtual environment."
"The platform's IP detection feature is particularly effective in identifying connections to our servers."
"The initial setup was straightforward and we didn't have any problem with it."
"​Very straightforward and very easy to implement.​"
"Easy to scale, stable solution for workload and server security and protection. It's easy to set up and has a good ransomware protection feature."
"The user interface is the most valuable feature."
"The agentless protection is very nice in Trend Micro."
"The most valuable features are web security, email filtering, and content filtering."
 

Cons

"Recently, Trellix has introduced a CDR, which involves more manual response than automatic. I believe they should enhance the system by adding features like automated response and the ability to create custom playbooks. This is crucial for an EDR solution, and currently, Trellix lacks this feature while other products offer it."
"I would like this solution to do what Palo Alto traps does because I would only need to run this one product."
"Sometimes, while installing the ePO, we were getting so many errors and I don't know why it happened."
"One of the drawbacks is that it is not 100% secure."
"The management console is a little bit difficult to understand for admins. You need a lot of time in order to become familiar with that. It is a little bit complicated and not too easy to understand. Its price can also be improved. Its price is higher than its competitors. McAfee also needs to have better cloud integration and more data centers in the EU. The cloud center should be in Europe or in Germany. In Germany, it is really important to have access to your data within the same country. Customer data needs to be placed and processed in the same country."
"The resolution time should be faster."
"It would be a lot easier if I could add multiple user accounts within a single device."
"An area of improvement for this solution is to make it easier to manage."
"What this product lacks at this stage is the ability to have automated workbooks to do the response. At this stage, the response is more manual, and it is not automated. If there is a response functionality in Deep Security, similar to what we have in EDR these days, to automatically respond to some of the threats, it would be cool. So, we'd like to have an automated response. There should be a response functionality."
"New patterns need improvement, as some new data access points are challenging to investigate and allow entry without detection."
"The solution's reports should include more details of events like device control, live health status of the server, and inventory management."
"I think more work could be done on Deep Security's ability to handle dynamic threat scenarios."
"The initial setup needs improvement, as it was a bit challenging."
"The client can show as offline sometimes, and that becomes a bit difficult for troubleshooting. We end up basically redeploying the client. This is something that could be improved in the future."
"The working interface and the reports for non-technical people could use improvement. They are a bit scary."
"The default reports provided don't provide much insight."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate Trellix Endpoint Security a nine out of ten for pricing."
"The pricing is comparable to other solutions on the market."
"I think Trellix is more on the higher side of the market, just on a general scale, but I also think it depends on what particular package you choose."
"Pricing is reasonable and runs at a cost per user per year."
"Licensing is paid yearly."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"When comparing the solution to others it is a bit expensive. We are on a monthly license."
"The solution is not an expensive tool. Compared to other options, it's mostly average-priced. I've deployed it for customers ranging from 100 nodes to over 5,000 nodes. Its renewal prices are very low, and it offers both perpetual and subscription licenses. With a perpetual license, the product will keep working as long as it's not end-of-life, which benefits companies."
"While the pricing was on the higher side, the manageability and comprehensive alerts provided by the product justified the cost."
"If you need an additional 10 or 20 licenses, you will need to pay additional fees."
"We did not purchase it through the AWS Marketplace because we have used Trend Micro in the past."
"Purchasing on the AWS Marketplace is like shopping on Amazon Prime."
"There is a subscription cost to use this product."
"The AWS licensing model is scalable and easy to use, but could do with tiered discounts. I am not sure how well this model will scale when we start to use Auto Scaling with AWS resources."
"The pricing is fair."
"The training needs improvement. It is expensive (classroom training), and it is often hard to find answers by yourself using the documentation."
