We performed a comparison between Cisco NGIPS and Trellix Intrusion Prevention System based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Intrusion Detection and Prevention Software (IDPS) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We primarily use this solution as an application filter and for IPS."
"This is a stable solution."
"Technical support is quite good. With firewalls, the last cases I had with Cisco were professionally handled quite quickly and it was great."
"The solution is very stable."
"Cisco NGIPS is working well overall with our current needs."
"The security intelligence in the product is the best feature and give us all the information that we need in our network."
"The traffic filter of this solution is very valuable to us, and to our clients."
"Among all the different solutions I have worked with, such as Palo Alto many other firewalls. Cisco has the support, documentation, and design. The documentation is widely available and it can help you a lot with implementation. It makes the implementation much easier."
"The feature I found most valuable is the network threat analyzer in the security platform. It also integrates with GTI, or Global Threat Intelligence. Otherwise, I just use the basic features."
"The most valuable features are the customization of the signature and the unlimited amount of signatures in IPS."
"The solution can scale."
"There's a good dashboard you can drill down into. It helps you easily locate intrusions and the source of attacks."
"The most valuable features of the solution stem from the fact that it is a good product for dealing with DDoS attacks and for the inspection of network traffic."
"Great monitoring feature."
"Overall the solution is very good. It offers great protection and gives us a good overview of what is on the network."
"The threat intelligence updates are very accurate."
"The GUI could be improved. The pain point is really only focused toward the security engineer who configures it and the operation engineer who manages it."
"The integration can be more secure."
"We don't like its licensing model. It has separate licensing for all the features. For instance, to get URL filtering, you need to buy another license. Every feature set seems to require another license. Unless you purchase them all upfront, you find some surprises and realize that you can't do that because you need another license. Its logging isn't quite as good as it used to be in our previous solution. We used to have Cisco ASA, and we could view the logs a lot easier than NGIPS (also known as Firepower). We saw real-time logging, but we don't see that as much in Firepower."
"Multi-internet line load balancing should be supported."
"Cisco NGIPS' performance could be better."
"The stability needs improvement so is rated a four out of ten."
"I think that some initiation scripts might be helpful because they would make the configuration easier and more user-friendly for customers."
"The SSL decrypt could be improved, but it's normal. All the devices in our platform need a lot of memory or CPU to do the SSL decrypt. This is an issue to improve in all platforms, not only in Cisco."
"The Network Security Managers could be more stable, agile, and work faster. When it comes to instability, there is room for improvement."
"The technical support must be improved."
"The management component could be simplified."
"The area of concern where the tool needs improvement is how the product prompts users at a network level that helps prevent any wireless network attacks through alerts and notifications."
"Some of the documentation is not as straightforward as it could be."
"The technical support has room for improvement."
"The solution could improve some aspects of detection."
"The pricing could be improved."
