Good capabilities, has a helpful interface and is straightforward to set up
We have asked for a couple of features from the company already. What typically happens is a lot of people - and developers are one of the biggest consumers of this product - go to this product to optimize their investigation process and specific configurations. That increases our data flow at times, so the cost changes. And a lot of changes happen due to that. We have asked the company to auto-revert the changes after a while so that the system works typically. We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change.
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:

"For now, we have not experienced any stability issues."
"A non-tech person can easily get used to it."
"The solution is easy to use and to start with."
"The solution offers very good convenience filtering."
"Coralogix scales well, and I will rate it nine out of ten."
"The log monitoring is good, and the dashboards that we create are beneficial."
"The most valuable feature of Coralogix is that it is a very good vendor for metrics."
"The strongest part of Trellix ESM is that we get quite good reports."
"It enables us to detect malicious threats, issues, or vulnerabilities in our network."
"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 solution's technical support is great."
"This solution integrates easily and very well with other technologies."
"Trellix ESM utilizes fewer human resources and improves security and visibility."
"The solution is 100% stable. We really have had a great time working with it. It hasn't let us down."

Cons

"The features we were missing in the past were related to the way we see our metrics and aggregate our data."
"The user interface could be more intuitive and explanatory."
"The user interface is not intuitive, especially when first onboarding, and improvements could be made here."
"Maybe they could make it more user-friendly."
"We want it to work at what it is expected to work at and not really based on the updated configuration which one developer has decided to change."
"It would be helpful if Coralogix could integrate the main modules that any organization requires into a single subscription."
"Coralogix should have some AI capabilities to auto-detect anomalies and provide suggestions."
"The customizable dashboards haven't really helped with my company's efficiency at all, and I think there's room for improvement."
"Product currently requires Flash."
"There are some banking and transactional cases that are local, South America transactions. I would like to see them add features that can be used locally, to make those transactions more reliable."
"The support from McAfee ESM could improve. They could improve the speed."
"We would welcome integrations with some of the new McAfee acquisitions, e.g., behavioural analytics."
"The initial setup is difficult and could improve."
"I have to purchase a new box now. Its existing box is not scalable and I can't use it anymore."
"The product is mature and needs little improvement, but we could enhance the customized dashboarding based on use cases."
"There are always multiple bugs in the product. For example, the console page was hanging multiple times. Afterwards, they released multiple upgrades for the same, multiple patches from McAfee."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Currently, we are at a very minimal cost, which is around $400 per month since we have reduced our usage. Initially, we were at $900 per month."
"The cost of the solution is per volume of data ingested."
"The platform has a reasonable cost. I rate the pricing a three out of ten."
"We are paying roughly $5,000 a month."
"When compared to IBM Security QRadar and other similar platforms, the pricing of McAfee ESM is reasonable and comparatively less expensive."
"You should buy the distributed option instead of the all-in-one for environments with more than 1000 end points."
"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."
"It is an inexpensive product. We purchase its yearly license."
"The licensing cost is based on EPS."
"The price of McAfee ESM is higher than some of the other solutions. There are additional features that can be added at an additional fee."
"Regarding pricing, Trellix ESM is not that expensive. It's less than half the cost of IBM QRadar."
"McAfee is the right choice for a low-budget solution."
