Featured Reviews

AtulChaurasia - PeerSpot reviewer
Scalable platform with intuitive features for detecting malicious files
The initial setup process is straightforward. We have to install the agent, create a package, and deploy it on servers. It has a prebuilt console managed by the cloud team of Cybereason. We don't have to worry about the console and concentrate on endpoint implementation. It takes ten days to deploy it on 10,000 devices.
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security ( /categories/endpoint-protection-platform-epp ) 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

"What I find most valuable is the clarity of the platform."
"The initial setup is not overly complicated."
"The initial setup process is straightforward."
"The dashboard is very good and you can consider it as an interactive UI."
"What I like most about Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response is the support because the support is good. The solution is also easy to use, and it has a dashboard. Everything is good, and there's no problem with it."
"The interface is user-friendly."
"Cybereason's threat hunting and investigation are the most valuable features. Threat hunting is a user-friendly feature that keeps you safe. Investigation offers an added value that I haven't seen with other EDR services. It allows you to find specific policy problems within your environment."
"Immediately we can pick up the computers in the network if any malicious operation that is triggered."
"The endpoint protection and disk encryption features are the most valuable."
"It's easy to use."
"The package of protection that it provides is useful. It has antivirus, malware protection, VPN, and a whole bunch of other features."
"The solution is reliable."
"Trellix Security Endpoint can promptly isolate any host machines directly from the console. If alerts are received and isolation is necessary, it can be accomplished through the console. The console itself holds significant value, accessible through a browser and allowing remote actions via cloud login."
"The agents are easy to deploy."
"HIPS protects server files from being modified or deleted by unauthorized users. It's primarily deployed in the web tier."
"The product's initial setup phase was straightforward."
 

Cons

"It initially took some time to deploy."
"What needs to improve in Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response and what I'd like to see in its next release is a centralized dashboard that allows you to view what is there, similar to what's on Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager: a beautiful display and reporting. Cybereason Endpoint Detection & Response has to start with the compliance, the homepage, etc. Everything should be there and should be customizable. The options should be there. The tool is very good currently, but visibility for IT administrators is lacking and needs to be worked on."
"Ad hoc higher-level reporting to senior management can be improved or can be implemented. That's definitely an area of improvement that they need to focus on."
"They need to improve their technical support services."
"Compared to our previous endpoint, we have a lot more false positives and a lot more duplication of alerts. So we're chasing more alerts."
"I would like to see improvements on the operational side, specifically in grouping."
"Reporting could be a bit more granular so that we had the ability to check regions and countries. I just noticed that, for instance, if I look at our servers, it's either "contained" or it's "not contained". I don't have the option, for instance, to look at countries. It only allows me to look at users as one big group."
"I feel that the product lacks reporting features and needs improvement."
"The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format."
"It would be a lot easier if I could add multiple user accounts within a single device."
"The solution's technical support should be improved since we faced a lot of issues with the support. There were some delays in responses from the technical support."
"We would like to see all the features available on cloud."
"You do not have access to all the features when you use the Trellix web interface. For example, you cannot do device or drive encryption from the web interface. Also, when we're working with customers, it's sometimes challenging to get sales support. Delays mean we might lose an opportunity. Lastly, Trellix lacks some documentation about custom features."
"While we are pleased with the endpoint solution, there should also be a separate one for the firewall."
"Every time we open a ticket with McAfee, their response differs and they are not consistent."
"Search feature could be made more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"On a scale of one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the pricing an eight."
"I do not have experience with the licensing of the product."
"I had to go through a third-party to purchase it, which I wasn't really pleased about."
"In terms of pricing, it's a good solution."
"In terms of cost, this is a good choice for our needs."
"The pricing is manageable."
"We considered a few other solutions. Some were ridiculously overpriced, while others didn't have solutions for Mac endpoints. That was a deal-breaker because most of our organization is on Mac. It came down to two vendors: Cybereason and another. They had similar pitches and almost identical approaches, but in the end, Cybereason gave us the best value for our money."
"This product is somewhat expensive and should be cheaper."
"The price of McAfee is pretty similar to Symantec, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) has a reasonable price."
"The current pricing is much better than before because they now offer product-related promotions along with some changes in product licensing. The new pricing model is better than before."
"We had a discount when purchasing the solution because of the size of our company and we are happy with the price."
"There's a subscription on a yearly basis. It's not that expensive; it's quite affordable."
"Annual license fee is good"
"We are on an annual subscription for McAfee MVISION Endpoint. The cost for the license could be less expensive."
