Senior Infra Manager at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Great for PCI compliance but issues with stability and large amounts of data
I mainly use this solution to meet PCI compliance The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements.  The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance. The correlation suite needs to be improved. I also think they need to…
MD
Senior Vice President IT at AS IT Consulting Pvt. Ltd.
Offers comprehensive report generation while maintaining ease of integration
We need to improve Trellix ESM by making sure that most of the logging devices available in the global market should be covered, and if there is any device which is not covered, there should not be any additional charges for writing the custom parsers on that. We can add some new features regarding AI in the future for Trellix ESM, but the maturity will take a longer time. There are many false positives that happen in an environment during the first couple of months, or around six months, so the system analyst is not able to identify whether the event which has occurred is a true positive or a false positive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The FIM features in the Change Tracker and the Log Tracker are the most valuable."
"Customer Service: The service we've seen from NNT to date has been extraordinarily good."
"If you want to deploy a SIEM and you want it to be simple, and not deal with much maintenance or help from the OEM, then I would say that NNT is the one."
"The automation of compliance reports and the correlation of the log have been major improvements."
"The most valuable feature is the predefined reports for PCI compliance."
"This is a very easy-to-use interface with a quick ramp-up time."
"The Change Tracker tool is very good and will reduce your overall workload."
"File integrity monitoring is a very important function."
"The strongest part of Trellix ESM is that we get quite good reports."
"It has performed well and delivered the results that I have been looking for."
"We are quite happy with the product and its stability, but the problem is the lack of support, which is one of the major issues that we are facing."
"McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."
"The most valuable feature is for the security operation center because it provides visibility of all traffic within the company infrastructure."
"It is a good central viewpoint for issues, which can then be investigated in more detail on the subnet servers and endpoints."
"It is user-friendly. The notification part of McAfee ESM is very easy."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix ESM, for detecting, is that it detects malware and viruses, such as a particular virus that was critical in Kenya; we used ESM to detect and block that particular virus completely."
 

Cons

"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"There are some issues with the stability - the correlation engine has failed multiple times, and the reports sometimes take too long, so we have to involve the tech team to get them."
"I would like to see the integration of AI technology, so rather than manually monitoring the logs, the tool will understand it and take care of it."
"It is able to identify the vulnerability, however, they need an option to auto-mitigate."
"For the NNT Log Tracker and Change Tracker, they have to make their knowledge base available online because there is very little information available on the internet."
"The correlation suite needs to be improved."
"Only one minor deployment issue came up and it was resolved quickly. No other areas of improvement come to mind yet."
"McAfee ESM is not able to cope with the advanced features."
"We are having trouble migrating our data sources from version 10 to version 11.2. We cannot add new data sources to the most recent version."
"The only issue I have with McAfee is the amount of computer resources that it takes... it's definitely impacting some of the other applications that are running on a computer at the same time."
"Update to user interface from version 9 is cosmetic in some aspects, and after a few clicks you are back on the old interface."
"There are some banking and transactional cases that are local, South America transactions. I would like to see them add features that can be used locally, to make those transactions more reliable."
"The user interface could be more user-friendly."
"We acquired the IBM product because McAfee is slightly confusing to use, and it's broader."
"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have selected a perpetual license along with support."
"NNT's pricing is moderate - I would rate their pricing two-and-a-half out of ten."
"Consider both their on-premises solution and their hosted solution. Both are reasonably priced."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
"Regarding pricing, Trellix ESM is not that expensive. It's less than half the cost of IBM QRadar."
"The product is slightly expensive."
"McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."
"The cost is dependent on the customer's environment and requirements."
"We renew our license annually."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
