Featured Reviews

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.

Realtime intelligent end-to-end detection and protection from malware in a highly versatile product
From a technical perspective, I think ServerProtect is one of the best security products on the market. It is a mature product that already has most features that any product of this type has. What can be improved is that the cost is very high. So I feel that the cost should be reduced, even if it is justified. One thing that I would like to see as an additional feature is just a custom sandbox within the solution itself. So instead of having to go and use an additional sandbox for testing, you could have a custom sandbox integrated directly into the solution.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"One valuable feature is Threat Prevention with the on-demand scan."
"It has a very simple like multi-tenancy option and scalability is outstanding."
"It has improved my organization because it helps with visibility, in terms of security. We can see the actual attack and can contain it. The antivirus can detect that."
"Trellix Endpoint Security's dashboard is very flexible, and I can create my own user-specific dashboard depending on user privilege or preference."
"This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection."
"The most valuable features are reporting from the ePO console and the advanced threat protection (ATP)."
"The most valuable features are the prevention layer that detects the signature value and prevents threats in the network."
"The solution is a reliable and mature product. Its reporting function is robust, and the user interface is easy to use. End users can create customized reports with detailed reporting for any computer and export them in PDF or other formats. This reporting capability is very robust."
"Technical support was perfect."
"The solution allows centralized administration"
"Performance is very good."
"Able to quarantine any malware."
"The most valuable feature is Data Loss Prevention (DLP)."
"It helps us quickly address potential issues and provides us with valuable insights."
"Allows us to protect OneDrive and SharePoint, and emails too."
"Virtual Batching and the intelligent anti-malware components are valuable security tools."
 

Cons

"Currently, Trellix Endpoint Security can't find the running mutexes, while other open-source products can do it."
"I would like this solution to do what Palo Alto traps does because I would only need to run this one product."
"The solution's technical support should be improved since we faced a lot of issues with the support. There were some delays in responses from the technical support."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment."
"Technical support from the vendor is very bad."
"McAfee Endpoint Protection could improve the word control feature."
"I would like to have the ability to have more control over the deployment in the next release. If you have this console in the cloud, you cannot make pilot groups for deploying the agents. We only have the current group. So, as soon as you inject the software, it will go directly into production, which doesn't work for us. We need to build up pilot groups slowly. We already requested to have this feature on the cloud, and we are still waiting."
"The endpoint protection could always be stronger."
"We found that when we push Trend Micro from the console to our client's PCs, we need to manually restart the PC. I have 500 users and the manual input is time-consuming."
"Integration with different platforms could be an area for improvement in Trend Micro ServerProtect, e.g. it needs more integration. It could also be more secure and more stable. In the next release, this solution should also include more EDR visibility."
"Trend Micro is a little bit complicated when it comes to setting up special policies."
"There are a few areas of improvement. Despite its high performance, there are certain aspects related to the operating system that could be improved. Specifically, I find that the protection for certain actions requires more effort compared to other actions."
"The solution should provide features to block devices, specific IPs or URLs"
"Lacking analytics and a machine learning technique."
"No built-in vulnerability scanner for management solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"The price of the solution is in the middle range compare to others and could be reduced. There are not any additional costs."
"The tool is affordable"
"I rate Trellix Endpoint Security a nine out of ten for pricing."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"The product is expensive."
"This product is costly."
"The product is available at a reasonable price"
"Pricing is based on the components you choose from the suite to run in your installation. Costs vary by the number of features and the number of servers."
"In terms of price, the solution is in the middle; it's neither the cheapest nor the most expensive. I rate it three out of five for cost."
"This product has an annual subscription, but also offers MSP options."
"Pricewise, this product is okay."
