Featured Reviews

Zuhair Hasan - PeerSpot reviewer
Manager, Information Technology Security at Nesma
Has good integration capability and provides information and events but improvement is needed in information retrieval speed
The best features are the comprehensive event collection and analysis. Once set up properly, we receive all events and information. The team analyzes our data and presents incidents to us. We can communicate with their team to escalate and resolve incidents. It has a feature we use to search for information about our environment and past incidents. This is very valuable. The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets.

Associate Cybersecurity Analyst at a tech vendor with 10,001+ employees
Centralized threat triage has improved endpoint control but still needs better cloud insights
Trellix Helix Connect can definitely be improved, especially regarding cloud and SaaS telemetry gaps. It could enhance its native cloud and SaaS telemetry integration. Additionally, sometimes when we open the details of a file, it lacks meta fields altogether, and we must manually ask the user for the meta fields, such as when the file was created, last opened, last updated, and its hash value. Helix does not perform as expected in this regard. There are also many false positives flagged that should not be, and there is no on-premises option for FireEye Helix. Lastly, the GUI and dashboard feel very old-school and legacy, needing improvement, as all competitors have far superior GUIs and UI/UX interfaces. I would add that we have experienced specific problems with session timeouts where we randomly log out from the system after some time and face issues in logging back in. This required us to contact customer service frequently, which is also not very reliable or prompt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"ClearSkies is the best for software as a service and small organizations with up to 500 employees."
"The integration capability is very good - the ClearSkies SaaS NG SIEM team is collaborative. We've integrated most of our systems, including EDR and NDR. They have agents to collect events from servers and assets."
"The correlation rules and the user platform are most valuable."
"The best features Trellix Helix Connect offers are orchestration, visibility, and remediation, which stand out to me as key differentiators."
"We estimate that security investigation and incident response activities are approximately 40 to 45% faster compared to before implementing Trellix Helix Connect."
"The features that I find most valuable in Trellix Helix Connect are the incident response capabilities, which include EDR and XDR, along with the SoC capabilities added in the new advanced Trellix AI intelligence."
"We have started working with various customers, one of whom is particularly concerned about adjacency. We have identified several use cases where automation is possible."
"It is kind of simple and very easily deployable, and you can start working with it very fast."
"I advise other customers to choose Trellix Helix, as it improves operations significantly with more efficient responses required for various scenarios they face."
"The most valuable features include predefined use cases and threatening states."
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
 

Cons

"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology."
"The main issue for improvement is the platform's slowness in presenting information. Retrieving information can take a little time when clicking on something."
"They can add behavior analytics and AI or machine learning technology. They also improve their correlation engine. In addition to collecting logs from devices, they can collect the traffic and then correlate these logs and the traffic information."
"The weak point of Trellix Helix Connect is the data storage capacity; more storage must be purchased as the data grows, which is a disadvantage because the cost increases when more space is needed on the cloud."
"Regarding areas for improvement with Trellix Helix, I believe that if the integration with AWS and GCP environments could be improved, that would be beneficial."
"While we have top customer support and this solution is highly beneficial, there is room for improvement due to the fusion of McAfee and FireEye, which has caused some lapses in support."
"Sometimes the rules are disabled by FireEye, and we basically get it after the patch. I think there needs to be a better way of creating the application rules. I would like to see better pricing for our licensing."
"There is room for improvement in the integration capabilities of third-party tools."
"The graphical user interface could be improved. It's not easy to handle and it's not easy for a customer or end-user to learn how to manage the solution."
"We often rely on Martins to create logs and provide professional threat services rather than basic support."
"Integrations could be improved, and the dashboard could be a little better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Regarding pricing, I'd say it's in the middle range. Pricing is very good compared to others."
"They have changed the pricing policy. Its price is competitive. Its price is less than half of the price of QRadar, LogRhythm, and Splunk."
"The price could be better. But I think it's rightly placed when we buy everything in one shot, and we get some discount for that. That's how we basically plan our deployment, and it's holistic. We pay for the license yearly."
"I rate Trellix Helix a five out of ten for pricing."
"FireEye Helix is a little expensive."
"It could be cheaper, but that applies to every product."
