Alejandro Stromer - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security ( /categories/endpoint-protection-platform-epp ) can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems. Another issue is with end-users outside the network, where the agent handler sometimes fails to deploy the product properly. Improvements are needed in forensic analytics to detect specific vulnerabilities. It would also help if detection specifics were identified more quickly and the problem-solving process accelerated, especially to meet larger clients' expectations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"It speeds up the process, so I can meet my deadlines."
"It indexes much faster, and is more reflexive because of the Enscripts."
"The solution is very stable."
"The technical support is excellent."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"The stability has been great."
"The solution is a reliable and mature product. Its reporting function is robust, and the user interface is easy to use. End users can create customized reports with detailed reporting for any computer and export them in PDF or other formats. This reporting capability is very robust."
"Trellix Endpoint Security's dashboard is very flexible, and I can create my own user-specific dashboard depending on user privilege or preference."
"The solution is stable."
"There is a new feature where you can set thresholds for all the CPU consumption allowing for no consumption on the servers when the scans happen. It is a separate plugin or addon, and if we have it on all the virtual machines it automatically checks the resources, and based on that, it will schedule the scans. That is something that I have not seen in other antivirus solutions, such as Symantec."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"The most valuable network security feature is the network sandbox solution. This sandbox feature works on traffic flow."
"It can be deployed quickly, and it's scalable. Those are the two advantages of it."
 

Cons

"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"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."
"​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."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"I would like to see a capability to ingest and absorb more data. That would be really good. It currently is lacking this function."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"The solution needs to improve its virtual patching capabilities. One area where it could improve is by offering a patch management solution bundled with its security products. This would make it even more competitive against solutions like Kaspersky that offer this feature."
"It would be nice if the solution was a bit more stable."
"Support-wise they need to be better."
"The solution could provide open XDR in addition to EDR."
"Although they have increased the complexity, it has affected the scanning speed."
"There is room to improve with scalability."
"Some customers feel that the Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) agent consumes more memory and resources in their environment, which is a major issue we are facing."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"EnCase is an affordable 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."
"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."
"We pay 650 Rand for a license. It is a perpetual license which we normally run for two years."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software."
"Its price is very high. It is higher than its competitors, and it should be less."
"It is not that expensive. There is no additional cost. We got the entire bundle together."
"We are on an annual subscription for McAfee MVISION Endpoint. The cost for the license could be less expensive."
