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

"Using Encase we are able to implement security and also Forensics."
"Image creation and image analysis in one program, basically for ease of use."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The technical support is excellent."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."
"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."
"The solution is very stable."
"MVISION Endpoint is so much easier and so much simpler for the lay security personnel to handle."
"The solution is really good and competitively priced, so someone wishing to secure his enterprise or make use of it in an inexpensive fashion should do so."
"The endpoint protection and disk encryption features are the most valuable."
"Technical support has been great. They always help us to resolve any issues."
"The detection is great and the solution is constantly improving."
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
"The product’s stability and security features enhance user protection and organizational security."
"The product is easy to use, it's a stable solution with good performance, and the scalability is good."
 

Cons

"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."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"From a customer service standpoint, this is unacceptable."
"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"In the past, incident response time for tech support was slow."
"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 security of this solution needs improvement."
"They need to improve the anti-virus engine which, although fast and efficient, sometimes uses too much hardware resources."
"The solution can be expensive."
"What needs improvement in Trellix Endpoint Security is the reduction of resource consumption by the scanning feature. There should be daily signature updates for protection."
"The product needs to reduce the usage of RAM and CPU."
"I would like this solution to do what Palo Alto traps does because I would only need to run this one product."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"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."
"Its price is very high. It is higher than its competitors, and it should be less."
"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."
"They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"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."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is neither a cheap nor an expensive solution."
"This product is costly."
"The price of McAfee is pretty similar to Symantec, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
