The first is the limited CNAPP capabilities compared to other security solutions like Aqua and Wiz, as Trellix Cloud Workload Security lacks full CNAPP depth, with limited coverage such as CSPM, infrastructure as code scanning, and deep container security.

IT Support Specialist at a non-tech company with 201-500 employees
It should not be based on subscription. It should be based on the number of servers that I am scanning.

Unified risk scoring has improved our cloud visibility and simplifies remediation priorities
Qualys TotalCloud provides unified vulnerability and threat assessment across both IAS and SaaS. This solution provides a single prioritized view of risk, which helps reduce the work I would have to do. We are no longer based on CVSS; we are based on Qualys risk scoring, which is based on CVSS plus internal findings made by Qualys, and then assigns its own score. The TruRisk insight feature has found a small number of assets with high vulnerability scores, though I am cautious since some information is classified. Qualys TotalCloud has positively impacted our bank's performance, and we have definitely seen benefits after implementing this solution.

Advanced rollback and AI-driven insights have protected endpoints and simplified security operations
We can check multiple types of alerts and triggers, and we can analyze these. There are many types of functions such as Kill, Quarantine, and remediate rollback types of features, which we can use for client safety. The rollback feature is the best feature because it is only used in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. We have used multiple types of EDR, but the rollback feature is unique to SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. When many types of attacks happen in an organization, the rollback feature deletes all types of malicious files and other malware-type files and completely cleans your system. This feature is very interesting according to me. SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security provides many types of features such as Kill and Quarantine, which are very interesting features for security operations. There are deep visibility features, and Purple AI is also one of the best features. It is easy for security operations and incident response. We can check log analysis with the help of deep visibility, and any types of attacks, malware, and phishing attacks are detected by SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Many types of security operations can be tracked and observed with the help of SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Purple AI is one of the interesting features in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. Deep visibility is one of the best features in SentinelOne Singularity Cloud Security. You can find any types of logs and any types of devices through searching portals, similar to Google search. It gives you information regarding this. With deep visibility, you can search for any name. For example, we can search for any name and check what is happening with that person's laptops, what USB is connected or disconnected, and whether the network is connected or not. This is with the help of Purple AI.

Centralized visibility has improved cloud posture management and automated threat response
The disadvantages of Trellix Cloud Workload Security include some global aspects where minor improvements could be done. When doing pairwise comparisons between products on the same topic, such as posture management and how it is managed in Palo Alto, Check Point, Symantec, and Trellix, certain gaps emerge. One key limitation is that Trellix Cloud Workload Security will not provide support for China and Russia based cloud vendors. If a customer is an enterprise or global enterprise customer, this product cannot be suggested because the company does not deal with China's cloud providers. China has very good cloud options such as Alibaba Cloud and Tencent, and Trellix Cloud Workload Security does not support these platforms. Another limitation is related to CNAPP capabilities. In comparison with other CNAPP vendors, Trellix Cloud Workload Security has some drawbacks. The product does not provide full-fledged CNAPP like others do. It provides only top-level or top-layer information and lacks in-depth CNAPP capabilities, which is a key limitation. Regarding SIEM functionality, Trellix Cloud Workload Security has a native SIEM component, but it appears to be using a third-party SIEM functionality. The company is not providing their own SIEM tools but rather receiving a third-party tool and managing it. This is a disadvantage because the integration will not be as perfect as it would be with a native solution. The SIEM tool integration presents a problem. Pricing is another significant disadvantage, especially for small and medium-sized enterprises. SMEs will likely not choose Trellix Cloud Workload Security because it is very expensive. The product is not prominent in the Gartner market share rankings, and the numbers are very small. Trellix Cloud Workload Security is not competing with market leaders such as SentinelOne, which has a 5% market share. The company claims CWPP, which stands for Cloud Workload Platform Protection, but the market share is very small. The reason market share is less is because service-oriented companies with service-oriented mindsets look at who is providing the best services. They consult Gartner reports or Forrester reports, and if Trellix Cloud Workload Security is not present in those reports, they may not suggest this product to customers. Additionally, the product is expensive for SMEs, although enterprise customers can afford it. The minimum 25 user bundle requirement means licensing is sold in basic tiers of 25 users at a time.
