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

"I haven't observed any of the instabilities in the solution. It is a stable solution."
"It is pretty unintrusive. It doesn't take over the system like McAfee or Norton. It doesn't use a whole lot of resources. McAfee and Norton use a lot of resources."
"The Webroot cloud console is very powerful."
"We've not had any issues with scalability. If an organization needs to expand, they can do so quite easily."
"It is excellent endpoint protection for mobiles that does everything it says it will."
"Probably, compared to other antivirus programs, what we like about it is it is lightweight."
"Doesn't consume resources or affect the computer performance at all."
"The initial setup was straightforward. It took five minutes. I installed the solution myself."
"Provides protection against threats."
"I recommend Trellix Endpoint Security to others as it seems like one of the industry standards and is fairly stable."
"It's quite easy to install agents."
"I have not faced any problems with scalability so far, but we are starting an upgrade or overhaul."
"It's good that it periodically scans all my drives. I can stay up to date with the status of my drivers and update them if needed."
"It has been protecting us for many years, and we hope it will continue to do so for many years to come."
"The tool has contributed to improving our security posture. While it's just one part of our overall solution, it plays a crucial role. As we continue to evolve, we anticipate it becoming even more important alongside other aspects like network behavior and additional metrics."
"The central management console is powerful. You can manage endpoints, DLP, encryption, and all the other features from a single console."
 

Cons

"It would be great if there was a feature which would allow you to scan an individual file on an endpoint user's computer."
"The solution could improve by providing better ransomware protection."
"We need to know more details about how the virus interacted with the computer."
"Reporting system could be improved."
"They should provide more information on the type of cyber attacks."
"Webroot Business Endpoint Protection needs to improve its ability to detect threats."
"I believe that Webroot Business Endpoint Protection should offer a more modern UI."
"Its detection capability for certain attacks should be improved. It should have better and wider detection for certain malware attacks. It could also have some sort of RMN."
"The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
"The interface is complex."
"The solution can be expensive."
"There is room to improve with scalability."
"Looking at the current ePolicy orchestrator, and the transition of most vendors to the cloud, they need to do an improvement with the current dashboard or the overall aesthetic of their GUI."
"They could provide better integration capabilities for the product with other services."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be better."
"It is a bit technical. The user interface has some significant limitations, mainly when using HIPS on the server side, to protect files from being changed or deleted by hackers, users, or administrators."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We evaluate other options using multiple choices, best value, management and functionality."
"Webroot is less expensive than SentinelOne."
"The solution doesn't cost too much. It's about 30 Euros a year for each endpoint. It's pretty affordable for us and for many other companies."
"With Webroot Business Endpoint Protection, I can select a yearly billing cycle."
"If you purchase for clients, then you are the managing billing entity. It's better to either get a monthly subscription check from your clients, or to prepay for the year (so as to not keep cash in reserve to pay the bill each month) IMHO."
"Our strategy was to overestimate the complexity and cost. It turned out that Webroot's assurance was justified."
"The solution is pretty cheap, actually. At our level, which is at 2,500 endpoints, we're paying 87 cents an agent per month."
"We are on an annual subscription for the use of Webroot Business Endpoint Protection."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"The product pricing is high."
"The price of the product is similar to the ones in the market that offer the same features."
"The price of the solution is in the middle range compare to others and could be reduced. There are not any additional costs."
"Pricing is reasonable and runs at a cost per user per year."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is not a cheap solution...I don't think any costs are involved in the maintenance of the solution."
"There are some extra expenses for using the product, in addition to licensing related to the maintenance of the product."
"It is not that expensive. There is no additional cost. We got the entire bundle together."
