A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.

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

"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"The technical support is excellent."
"Image creation and image analysis in one program, basically for ease of use."
"The solution is very stable."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts, as it allows me to customize the scripts and deploy them as and how I need them, for example to segregate and index files efficiently."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"It indexes much faster, and is more reflexive because of the Enscripts."
"It's well worth the investment as we have a lot of laws governing us."
"I am very happy with the solution."
"In general, it is a really great product and I recommend it."
"McAfee offers an integrated solution, and it covers almost all the possibilities of data loss."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
"The most valuable network security feature is the network sandbox solution. This sandbox feature works on traffic flow."
"The central management console is powerful. You can manage endpoints, DLP, encryption, and all the other features from a single console."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"This is not the program I would suggest for a newbie using to learn. It is just too expensive for the full experience, and the student versions, while very good, are just for that, students."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"I would like this solution to do what Palo Alto traps does because I would only need to run this one product."
"The product’s on-premise version is costly in terms of extra charges for SQL database and Windows server licenses."
"Because sometimes it makes machines really slow."
"They charge more for enterprise support and when we raise tickets we get a good response but with the normal support, their response is not quick."
"I'd like to see the searches enhanced because when I hand over the product to someone without experience, it should be user-friendly to them as well."
"Its pricing needs to be improved."
"They seem to generally delay releasing an update to protect against something, which can be dangerous as it gives malicious content time to spread."
"Trying to move away from the signature model for antivirus and malware blocking is something that would be nice. Instead of having to update every day, which is signature-based, moving to more of a kernel or architecture-based model would probably be beneficial."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"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."
"I would rate the cost as four to five, considering it's normal compared to other products. I find it nominal and worth the money."
"We pay 650 Rand for a license. It is a perpetual license which we normally run for two years."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"It was an annual fee. There was just one overall fee."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is an inexpensive platform."
"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."
