Stable, good for malware detection and prevention
I use it for general endpoint protection and the usual stuff like malware detection and prevention It secures my environment.  One thing that could be easier is initiating scans. If I want to scan an extra drive, it should be more straightforward. It's a bit clunky. I have been using it for…

Threat detection is effective, and the solution provides good control over device access, but it still needs better troubleshooting options for agent-related issues.
From an improvement perspective, I am looking for a way to troubleshoot situations where the endpoint agent becomes corrupted and requires reinstallation, as there is currently no option to resolve these issues without rebooting the system. I give it a rating of seven because, in today’s scenario, the portal is complicated to navigate. The Trellix Endpoint Security Platform dashboard is somewhat difficult to understand, and it takes considerable time to familiarize oneself with the tools and policies compared to other solutions. For on-premises deployment, I would also like to highlight that the architecture is quite complex, which is an area Trellix Endpoint Security Platform should consider improving.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It secures my environment."
"The product is easy to use."
"The initial setup of Trellix Endpoint Security was straightforward."
"The most valuable features are the adaptive tech on McAfee."
"The solution provides a data view of the Alpha systems with Trellix installs and makes small changes to the central management console. Nothing on the endpoints themselves works, but it focuses more on the management side."
"The technical support services are good."
"Initially, the DLP was very valuable for disabling access to USB drives."
"Would benefit with the addition of DLP features."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is a proven, robust, and cost-effective solution that protects the organization from different types of ransomware and attacks."
 

Cons

"One thing that could be easier is initiating scans."
"I would like to see more automation."
"Most of these types of solutions including others, such as Carbon Black and FortiEDR, all have the same features. However, Carbon Black is the leader when it comes to being robust and user-friendly and this solution should improve in those areas to stay more competitive."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. The price should be improved, it's high."
"They can improve its resource consumption, such as memory, and maybe provide better or smaller updates. It always takes a lot of resources, but it has been getting better. I have been using McAfee products for the last 20 years or so, and I know it is getting better."
"The security of this solution needs improvement."
"The solution lacks device control."
"It would be a lot easier if I could add multiple user accounts within a single device."
"The initial setup isn't so easy. You need to know what you are doing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"Since the maintenance is done by our own team, the price of the subscription should really be cheaper."
"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."
"The price of the solution is in the middle range compare to others and could be reduced. There are not any additional costs."
"Pricing is fair."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not very good, and I would rate its cost three out of five, though I won't be able to mention how much its actual price is."
"I do licensing on an annual basis and this is what I always recommend to my clients over the monthly option."
"This product is costly."
