Featured Reviews

AtulChaurasia - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalable platform with intuitive features for detecting malicious files
The initial setup process is straightforward. We have to install the agent, create a package, and deploy it on servers. It has a prebuilt console managed by the cloud team of Cybereason. We don't have to worry about the console and concentrate on endpoint implementation. It takes ten days to deploy it on 10,000 devices.

Daniel Durian - PeerSpot reviewer
Helps to monitor and detect cyberattacks
The tool's effectiveness depends on how you define your log sources. To build visibility of incoming and outgoing traffic, you need logs from perimeter defense, firewalls, web application firewalls, and endpoint protection. With good traffic visibility, incident response time is really quick. Trellix ESM provides situation awareness. On the dashboard, I can see outbound and inbound communications to known threat hosts, IPS/IDS activity, and threat intelligence of the perimeter defense in the firewall. This information helps preempt attacks.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The interface is user-friendly."
"Cybereason absolutely enables us to mitigate and isolate on the fly. Our managed detection response telemetry has dropped dramatically since we began using it. It's very top-of-mind. We were running some tabletop exercises and none of the detections were getting triggered by the managed security services provider. So we needed to find a solution that would trigger high-fidelity alerts. That was Cybereason and it dramatically changed our landscape from the detection and response perspective."
"The initial setup is not overly complicated."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"I haven't had any issues with the solution. Stability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI."
"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform."
More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response pros
"The most valuable feature in ESM is its search and reporting feature. It's really nice."
"It enables us to detect malicious threats, issues, or vulnerabilities in our network."
"Compared to other solutions, the user interface is good."
"It is user-friendly. The notification part of McAfee ESM is very easy."
"The ease of use is the most valuable feature. Over the years I have always been using this solution and have become comfortable with it."
"The strongest part of Trellix ESM is that we get quite good reports."
"It is easy to use and deploy. It comes with user-friendly manuals."
"The most valuable features of McAfee ESM are intrusion detection, malware protection, and the device controller."
More Trellix ESM pros
 

Cons

"They need to improve their technical support services."
"The reporting feature needs improvement."
"The integration with Microsoft solutions and Microsoft capabilities needs to be improved."
"It should be more stable, and the sensor needs improvement in terms of connectivity."
"It initially took some time to deploy."
"While the product is very good, there are still some areas for improvement. The initial triage area could be a bit simpler. They get into the weeds real fast; it gets very detailed very fast. I am still looking for an easier triage layer on top with the ability to dig deeper."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group."
More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response cons
"We would welcome integrations with some of the new McAfee acquisitions, e.g., behavioural analytics."
"We acquired the IBM product because McAfee is slightly confusing to use, and it's broader."
"There should be support for multitenancy in the product."
"Product-wise, adding accounts on a single data source by batch would be a really great help."
"It seems McAfee does test its product before releasing. When we - not only us, other companies also - deploy McAfee, we face multiple issues from the customer side, after which, McAfee reacts and fixes the bugs."
"The only issue I have with McAfee is the amount of computer resources that it takes... it's definitely impacting some of the other applications that are running on a computer at the same time."
"Tech support is required each time there is a system update of the solution."
"I would like to see improvements to the user interface."
More Trellix ESM cons
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Though it is not the cheapest solution but it fits our budget. We pay an annual licensing fee."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
More Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response pricing and cost advice
"The price is good. It's moderate. We follow a pay-as-you-go model. There are different models available, and they can also be monthly. You can choose monthly or yearly. It's very flexible. If our existing customers exceed the current plan, you can just call McAfee and get it extended."
"The cost is all included. The finance department handles the financial part, and we mostly don't get involved in it."
"We pay for our licensing fees on a yearly basis, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The product is slightly expensive."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The cost is dependent on the customer's environment and requirements."
"The pricing is good, and they are competitive compared to providers such as RSA and IBM QRadar."
"We renew our license annually."
