CIO at a consultancy with 201-500 employees
Experienced easy deployment and stable performance but user support needs improvement
The most valuable features are that BetterCloud had a much more sophisticated workflow management toolset than Google itself. It was easy to build onboarding and offboarding workflows, which could handle the desired complexity versus out-of-the-box Google. BetterCloud allowed us to reallocate storage so all files created by a departing member would get reallocated to the manager, thus retaining access. BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment. BetterCloud now offers SaaS platform tracking capabilities, a key, previously missing feature.

Has supported centralized management while needing improvements in feature depth
I have experience working with SentinelOne XDR, EDR, and XDR. Trellix DLP also offers EDR, XDR, and DLP solutions. The platform can be on the cloud, but the end users typically have their own devices installed with DLP on-premises. On a scale from one to ten, I rate Trellix DLP a seven.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"BetterCloud saved help desk time by automating processes, providing a reasonable return on investment."
"You simply cannot use Google Apps without it, so it's a no brainer."
"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
"Trellix DLP is a very good solution, easy to manage and handle, and newcomers find it user-friendly with an easy-to-use console and dashboard."
"I rate the product an eight out of ten."
"Trellix DLP has an agent that continuously scans the endpoint and sends the data to the portal. From there, it continuously leverages data from its threat intelligence."
"The solution is stable and does not have glitching issues."
"The best thing about Trellix DLP is its unified console that allows us to manage all products from endpoint protection to email protection, DLP, and many more, including SIM."
"The support from both the vendor and Trellix is excellent."
"Trellix DLP has really strengthened our security posture, we have seen a sharp decrease in data leaks and it has made compliance audits much smoother, plus, it has boosted trust with both our customers and our partners, which has been invaluable."
 

Cons

"Would love for it to be able to replace our SSO as well as provide connectivity and the same level of automation to our other SaaS products."
"The account support team was weak in engagement and communication, contributing to the decision to move to more comprehensive solutions."
"Coverage for Mac OS is lacking as features like clipboard and print protection don't function as expected. The agents often affect endpoint performance negatively and do not behave consistently across all machines."
"Trellix is incompatible with Linux, and its DLP part is incompatible with Mac. Sometimes, it does not work on Windows, either."
"It's not very user-friendly for a beginner, so it would be easier if the platform or console were manageable or user-friendly. The dashboard could be simplified."
"The support team's response time during the night is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"I would rate the solution seven out of ten based on my last experience within the last six months. It's a bit of a fallback, and I know they are working on improving scalability."
"Trellix needs to improve customer support."
"During the initial setup of Trellix DLP, we faced challenges where the Trellix console buffers multiple times, taking time to reload when clicking on features, which needs improvement."
"Virtualization is complex and requires proper training. However, once you get trained, it is a very good product."
