Improving threat detection is critical for enhanced protection

Threat detection is effective, and the solution provides good control over device access, but it still needs better troubleshooting options for agent-related issues.
From an improvement perspective, I am looking for a way to troubleshoot situations where the endpoint agent becomes corrupted and requires reinstallation, as there is currently no option to resolve these issues without rebooting the system. I give it a rating of seven because, in today’s scenario, the portal is complicated to navigate. The Trellix Endpoint Security Platform dashboard is somewhat difficult to understand, and it takes considerable time to familiarize oneself with the tools and policies compared to other solutions. For on-premises deployment, I would also like to highlight that the architecture is quite complex, which is an area Trellix Endpoint Security Platform should consider improving.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of the solution include the endpoint navigation protection, the protection related to the EMS service, as well as the control and the cloud integration capabilities."
"Auto-Remediation"
"Speed"
"There aren't any features that really stand out — I just want it to keep malware out of my system. To date, I haven't had any malware in my system."
"The traffic security monitoring, traffic application access feature called the agent, the main feature which is the endpoint security feature are the ones I found valuable. And it also had the in branch security in kind of SD WAN, good three hundred and sixty protection. It is specific and there is ease of deployment also present."
"It is very lightweight on the workstations, not slowing them down while still doing its job very well."
"Its ease of installation is valuable. It has been a low-resource tool and the continuous updates in the past have made it attractive from the standpoint of the trust level on the protection."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is very scalable."
"It is very valuable in finding out unknown malware."
"The solution provides dashboard control, so we can centrally monitor the entire status of our organization."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix Endpoint Security is its extensive customization capability, which allows me to create and deploy policies autonomously, suiting my individual needs."
"Provides protection against threats."
"The activation of features within ENS and the collection of threats into a single console is a strong point."
"It's a stable solution with good performance."
"It has improved my organization because it helps with visibility, in terms of security. We can see the actual attack and can contain it. The antivirus can detect that."
"It is a stable solution...It is a scalable solution."
 

Cons

"There needs to be more advanced analytics. It would make it a more powerful antivirus solution within the marketplace."
"I want Webroot to be easier to use and set up. It is not very intuitive."
"Reporting system could be improved."
"We need to have a stronger defense against CryptoLock and other attackers."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
"The only complaint I have with Webroot is its inability to prevent UoD phishing and its inability to check against bots or block anti-attacks. Plus the URL server is in zero-definition."
"I'm not happy with Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, for only one reason. It seems that it slows down my interface when I'm doing programming in Microsoft Access, tremendously."
"One of the biggest pain points is that it's not really ransomware-oriented. They will be able to catch some, but that's where Sentinel One is a better player compared to Webroot."
"There is room to improve with scalability."
"Impacts performance of the servers quite negatively."
"They could also increase or improve the scalability because to my knowledge the biggest bandwidth can only support up to 10 gigs of input."
"They have something called Managed Detection and Response. They get intel from their customers, and that intel is shared with the rest of FireEye's customers. I want to subscribe to their intel, but that is not available to us."
"The email protection isn't efficient enough, and I'd like to see DLP features in the next release."
"I would like to see more automation."
"We have a lot of problems with the user experience and it's difficult to implement. MacAfee's better than the ancient anti-virus solutions but it's a little slow to resolve. Many files with malware were destroyed through the network, and MacAfee doesn't detect anything."
"The customization capabilities of the solution are an area where it lacks, so it would be great if our company could customize the solution to meet the demands of our customers."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is relatively cheap."
"Get a trial, then a multi-year license."
"Work on a price tier plan."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection is not too expensive. My licenses cost me between $300 and $400. It is really good price wise."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"Customers would need to purchase a license. If a customer purchases an MVISION Endpoint license, he may use that license to install ENS. It's a flexible license where you have the option to either use the McAfee security software or the Windows Defender managed by McAfee, which is MVISION Endpoint."
"It is reasonably priced."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) has a reasonable price."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not very good, and I would rate its cost three out of five, though I won't be able to mention how much its actual price is."
"I do licensing on an annual basis and this is what I always recommend to my clients over the monthly option."
"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."
"It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness."
