The weak point of Trellix Helix Connect is the data storage capacity; more storage must be purchased as the data grows, which is a disadvantage because the cost increases when more space is needed on the cloud.

The SOC center monitors, hunts, and notifies us of threats around the clock
I know they are working to resolve this issue, but Netsurion is currently unable to retrieve logs from S3 buckets. We use WP Engine for a lot of web hosting as well as AWS, and both of these platforms use S3 buckets. I would like Netsurion to be able to pull logs from Linux devices. We have some of that capability, and I believe they can do it. However, the way it works with Amazon is strange and glitchy. Therefore, working something out with Amazon would be great. Netsurion's SOC can be a bit too aggressive at times. We have asked them to adjust their playbook because I am tired of being notified about the same issue multiple times a day. I am aware of the issue, and it is not a cause for concern. Let's only take action on this issue if we see an actual problem.
Melih Karasu - PeerSpot reviewer

Alarm correlation has improved incident investigations and streamlines multi-vendor security operations
There is room for improvement for Trellix Helix Connect; I see some direction that they still could improve. The most problematic part was the integration part because in their catalog, they have so many third-party vendors, but some of them were not fully supported, so we requested some development and feature requests. Sometimes we saw that some documentation was not enough to integrate the third-party vendor's product. However, they improved their documentation, so it was a good experience. Everyone expected that we could use an XDR solution as on-premises; they could make some improvement on this point, which is a priority for some institutions. I am not sure what additional functionalities I would like to see in the future for Trellix Helix Connect; they could add some AI features, basically machine learning capabilities, and also improvements in the chatbot feature, but it was at the first stage an average.
