Davina Becker - PeerSpot reviewer

Provides protection against malware but needs improved billing transparency
I can only speak to it on a personal level. If someone is considering it, they should test it on their own systems. I can't personally recommend it because each person has their own needs. While it may work for me as a malware antivirus solution, I can't recommend it to someone else who may have a different system or use case. I rate the overall solution 7.5 out of 10. Malwarebytes protects me against malware. If they fix the pricing model so it's not automatically charging me, the rating could improve. Until then, I can't give it an 8.

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

"The behavior-based detection is very nice, and it combats zero-day threats by looking for anomalous behaviors."
"It gets the job done, and they are consistently updating it monthly."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the agents, user experience, efficiency of the findings, and MDR features."
"The most valuable features of Malwarebytes are the EDR and the complete feature set provided."
"It's very versatile and thorough."
"The most valuable features of the solution are malware scanning and malware removal."
"Provides successful ransomware shut down operations."
"FireEye Endpoint Security's scalability is awesome. I think it is one of the best on that front."
"The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security."
"The reporting capabilities are a valuable feature. In enables more visibility on our network."
"Communication with all Mcafee products (also 3rd parties) by DXL infrastructure."
"It can be deployed quickly, and it's scalable. Those are the two advantages of it."
"The most valuable feature is user-based policy provision."
"The investigation and forensic analysis have been most helpful."
"McAfee EndPoint Security has a lot of good features that work well if they are implemented properly."
 

Cons

"Malwarebytes should improve its mobile compatibility."
"The interface could be improved. Currently, you need to really dig around to find the elements you need."
"Notifications are lacking."
"It's not good in search hunting."
"My clients have frequently encountered some tech support scams where when you go to a particular website, it throws up a fake warning to you and states that you need to call this number."
"The product has major problems in almost every facet of setup and use including setup, configuration, lack of functionality, lack of stability, false positives, questionable reporting, inability to protect from randsomeware and poor technical support and development."
"The online reporting needs to be improved. Currently, we have to look at it online, and if we want to download a report, it just downloads as an Excel file. It's just raw information. There needs to be some way to better display it when it's downloaded."
"The product update capability needs to be improved."
"The solution should provide a more easy way to uninstall it on specific stations."
"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."
"The performance could be better. I noticed that it slows down a bit."
"Upgrading to new versions isn't easy and it can take a long time. Also, other solutions' tamper protection features are better than FireEye's. Clients should have access to our local information, but they shouldn't change settings on the system itself."
"While we are pleased with the endpoint solution, there should also be a separate one for the firewall."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"The price of the solution is high in Asia."
"Some agents become old and then they don't communicate well any longer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the tool's pricing a five out of ten."
"The platform pricing is competitive with other antivirus products."
"Its cost is around $60 a machine. The cost of the total solution for 250 people is about $8,500 a year. If we add EDR to it, it will bring that cost up to about $15,000. The cost for Carbon Black is about $25,000, which is $10,000 more, but you get all AI functions with it."
"It is expensive."
"We expect to pay $1,000 USD a month, depending on the number of users."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price and ten is a high price, I rate the product's pricing a seven."
"I would say that it's affordable. It costs much less than Sentinel One, CrowdStrike, or anything of that nature. But, at the same time, you are getting what you pay for. So I would say it's one of the best when you're comparing traditional NextGen AVs like Webroot that aren't the best in the bunch."
"The cost may be something in the ballpark of $20-25 a year per computer."
"The pricing is great and licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"When comparing the solution to others it is a bit expensive. We are on a monthly license."
"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."
"It is reasonably priced."
"Its price is very high. It is higher than its competitors, and it should be less."
"MVISION is intended as an enterprise product and it is priced like one. This solution is within the price range of competitors at the enterprise level."
"The price of the product is similar to the ones in the market that offer the same features."
"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."
