Featured Reviews

Jörg Köhler - PeerSpot reviewer
Setup is smooth and management is seamless, while improvements in email filtering transparency enhance efficiency
For data correlation, we just haven't worked long enough with it to assess its impact on our overall threat response strategy. We prefer a system that simply informs us when there is a problem; we don't want to engage too much in threat hunting. Therefore, we're not looking to create a SOC from this, which is also why we moved from XDR to MDR. There are areas for improvement, including the difficulty in getting the right handles on the applied email filters. It's sometimes unclear why one email is treated as spam and another is not, even if they contain similar content. Making the process of how emails are treated a bit more transparent would be beneficial.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems. Another issue is with end-users outside the network, where the agent handler sometimes fails to deploy the product properly. Improvements are needed in forensic analytics to detect specific vulnerabilities. It would also help if detection specifics were identified more quickly and the problem-solving process accelerated, especially to meet larger clients' expectations.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution has an automatic patch management capability."
"I appreciate the overall utilization of AI to enhance security posture."
"It provides an in-depth analysis and gives recommendations, along with a historical search capability."
"Scalability is pretty easy. It's easy to increase the capacity. You can just add on licenses to the existing license, and the duration of the license can be adjusted. For example, you've already bought a license for a year, and you want to add some more users. We can just add on licenses for the remaining period so that the entire organization can have the same expiry date. That makes renewal easier."
"The HyperDetect feature in GravityZone XDR is effective."
"I find that the auto-response capability is most valuable."
"I would rate GravityZone XDR more than nine out of ten."
"Dynamic Application Containment."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
"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."
"Their malware detection rate is excellent for all type of devices and the anti-theft products are good and easy to use."
"The new central console is better than the earlier one."
"The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security."
"The product is easy to use."
"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."
 

Cons

"It's not very mature, and additional costs are involved."
"The resource consumption is high for Bitdefender GravityZone XDR, nearly using one gigabyte of RAM, especially on Windows 10 and 11."
"The solution’s pricing could be improved."
"The product could be improved by offering a single panel for the management of all Bitdefender products."
"The product could be improved by offering a single panel for the management of all Bitdefender products. Additionally, there might be a need to simplify the interface in the future."
"The resource consumption is high for Bitdefender GravityZone XDR, nearly using one gigabyte of RAM, especially on Windows 10 and 11."
"Another area of improvement is CPU utilization. CPU utilization could be improved."
"The interface is complex."
"The security of this solution needs improvement."
"I would like to see simple processing and reporting online."
"The detection and response capabilities need to be improved."
"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."
"They could provide better integration capabilities for the product with other services."
"The software download features could stand improvement."
"So far, McAfee MVISION Endpoint ticks off all of our boxes, but its pricing could always be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing a six out of ten."
"It's not the price of the software itself that makes it expensive. It's because you have to buy a VM; you have to buy additional hardware. All those things make it slightly costlier."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"I would rate the cost as four to five, considering it's normal compared to other products. I find it nominal and worth the money."
"I do licensing on an annual basis and this is what I always recommend to my clients over the monthly option."
"Trellix Endpoint Security is neither a cheap nor an expensive solution."
"It's fairly priced compared to other products on the market."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"McAfee's prices are flexible and can be quite competitive, although there are other solutions that are even more so."
"The product is expensive."
