The tool provides excellent sandboxing and email security features, but the backup and recovery features are not good
If my primary solution is down, no backup solution is available to restore it. It is one of the biggest weaknesses of the platform. If I need to update the solution, there is no option to pick the events and the logs from it and deploy it in another solution. The backup and recovery features of the product are not good. I need backup. If the tool is down for some time, I cannot get the logs at that particular time.

Strong endpoint protection has simplified compliance and reduced effort for large user environments
One of the best features of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is its endpoint security, and I have been using it for the last four and a half to five years, so I can say this is one of the best EDR endpoint security solutions I have ever seen. The features that make Trellix Endpoint Security Platform stand out for me are ease of use and analytics, which I really appreciate the most. Trellix Endpoint Security Platform positively impacts my organization, ensuring we are compliant with SOC 2, HIPAA, and all other compliance requirements, so there are no issues with that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The email security feature is really good."
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is stable and runs all the time."
"The most valuable use is detailing metadata collection from the endpoint and network."
"I feel the anti-ransomware update is one of the tool's valuable features."
"The solution is very easy to use. Its interface is very simple, and you can build IOC's indicators. You can use your rules to detect these attacks because you can leverage threat intelligence. Y"
"The Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform provides visibility into telemetry data, enabling comprehensive monitoring of environmental activities."
"The threat scanning is excellent. It uses predictive technology and I can utilize attack data to help us fine-tune our systems and network infrastructure. This protects us against current and future attacks."
"I would recommend this solution."
"The solution is broken down into different components from the portals. Web filtering, which is an added feature has been great for us."
"This gives us a more secure and completely scalable zero-day model security product to the endpoint."
"The product is quite user-friendly."
"The thing that I like is that they have gathered almost all the products in one management server, the ePolicy Orchestrator."
"It offers good flexibility, has a small footprint, offers a minimal effect on performance, and is from a trusted brand."
"The platform’s most valuable features are ease of use, integration, and deployment."
 

Cons

"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is not a good product. We had problems with endpoints and the solution did not detect it. We didn't get any alerts about the attack."
"The solution lacks cloud integrations."
"I think the tool is still not really good enough for integration compared to other products."
"The blind spot or gap in the platform is network analysis functionality."
"The backup and recovery features of the product are not good."
"In some of the places I have come across, even though they use Kaspersky, the ransomware enters their system."
"AV management based on manual scan Manual scan feature is not easily done A long way of setting hostname set, and Scheduling over policy which is time taking and I don't feel comfortable."
"Regarding how Trellix Endpoint Security Platform can be improved, I find that intuitive problem solving is not very easy with Trellix Endpoint Security Platform, leading to the need to consistently reach out to the help desk, and it would be quite helpful if things were more intuitive and first-line problem solving was made easier."
"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 technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
"The only challenge we found is the integration with its product modules."
"I don't recommend McAfee for endpoint users."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be better."
"The product’s on-premise version is costly in terms of extra charges for SQL database and Windows server licenses."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Kaspersky is one of the cheaper solutions."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is cheap."
"The solution has competitive pricing."
"McAfee's prices are flexible and can be quite competitive, although there are other solutions that are even more so."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be made free."
"Microsoft Defender is not cheap and from a cost perspective, Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is a better option."
"There are some extra expenses for using the product, in addition to licensing related to the maintenance of the product."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is neither a cheap nor an expensive solution."
"They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software."
"It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness."
