Room For Improvement

CrowdStrike Falcon needs improvements in user interface, reporting, threat intelligence, legacy support, and cost-efficient pricing and deployment.
Trellix MOVE AntiVirus requires improved threat detection, user interface, performance, pricing, administration, and resource optimization for better competitiveness.
Simplifying the querying process, such as using double quote queries or directly obtaining logs based on IP addresses or usernames, would be beneficial.
Another concern is CrowdStrike's GUI. It changes annually, making it hard to work and find options.
Threat prevention should be their first priority.
This solution will consume more resources for the end users, which is an area for improvement.
When it comes to disadvantages, the user interface of Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is a bit cumbersome and not really user-friendly.

Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is valued for security, priced reasonably, with user-based licensing and potential for discounts, despite ease concerns.
It is expensive compared to SentinelOne, but as the market leader, it is worth it.

Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is relatively affordable for the budget that we have currently.
 

Valuable Features

CrowdStrike Falcon excels in threat detection, endpoint protection, and integration, offering AI-driven, lightweight, efficient security solutions.
Trellix MOVE AntiVirus offers seamless integration, real-time protection, efficient malware detection, centralized management, scalability, and reliable performance.
I can investigate by accessing the customer's host based on the RTR environment and utilize host search to know details for the past seven days, including logins, processes, file installations, malicious processes, and network connections.
The real-time analytics aspect of CrowdStrike performs well because we get all logs in real-time, with no delay, allowing us to take action immediately.
Being an EDR solution, it helps us identify attacks in real-time.
We can monitor all their vital points. If they are online, offline, if they are being attacked by any viruses, anything that we need to take action upon, it will be on our centralized overview application.
We are using Slack Intelligence, which is also from Trellix, and Threat Intelligence, which are valuable features of this solution.

Featured Reviews

Waleed Omar - PeerSpot reviewer
Provides effective real-time threat detection with potential for cost optimization
Some features such as device control, firewall management, and file analysis are standalone products that we need to purchase separately. If these features came out of the box within the product, it would be much more beneficial for us. Other providers such as SentinelOne include these features in their base product. We attended a CrowdStrike Falcon event where they discussed some shallow AI features, but we cannot see these in our panel yet. We work with different solutions such as Darktrace and SocRadar, where AI features are automatically displayed in our dashboards after release. However, for CrowdStrike Falcon, we cannot see these features.
JerryOniye - PeerSpot reviewer
Comprehensive protection and seamless integration elevate security experience
A positive aspect of Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is that our biggest feature prevents users from installing USB drives. We don't have the issue of distributing viruses or transfer of files. They always track harmful files before they can enter the computer system. It protects against unnecessary use of external storage devices. It also gives protection to all the systems, on-premise or out of the premises, online, including the server. The server sends periodic updates to all the systems connected to it. We have administrative overhead as we have centralized management for Trellix MOVE AntiVirus. We can monitor all our computers that are currently using Trellix MOVE AntiVirus. We can monitor all their vital points. If they are online, offline, if they are being attacked by any viruses, anything that we need to take action upon, it will be on our centralized overview application.
