Aurélien Boeyen - PeerSpot reviewer
Useful endpoint visibility, high availability, and helpful support
Datto EDR is used for detection and response for endpoints The most valuable feature of Datto EDR is the visibility of the endpoints. The solution could improve by having more deployment methods. I have been using Datto Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) for approximately three years. Datto…
Abdullah Al Hadi - PeerSpot reviewer
Customization capabilities allow clients to autonomously deploy policies
There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security 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

"The most valuable feature of Datto EDR is the visibility of the endpoints."
"The ease of deployment has been good."
"The insight that the solution provides is the most valuable aspect. The security scanning they do is excellent."
"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is a perfect product for endpoint security."
"The most valuable features are the adaptive tech on McAfee."
"The solution offers very good endpoint security."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint is stable."
"The most valuable network security feature is the network sandbox solution. This sandbox feature works on traffic flow."
"It has been protecting us for many years, and we hope it will continue to do so for many years to come."
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
"The manageability of the product itself is its most valuable aspect. You have the underlying EPO, and on top of it, you can deploy the various components as you require. This is unlike other solutions like Symantec where you have to deploy everything or nothing. With this solution, you can choose to only deploy antivirus or only deploy a firewall, or only something else. I choose the components and that deployment is done through EPO. It makes manageability very flexible."
"The solution is broken down into different components from the portals. Web filtering, which is an added feature has been great for us."
 

Cons

"The deployment of the solution right now is terrible. We find it to be very bad. It could be improved enormously."
"The inclusion of web filtering would be good."
"The solution could improve by having more deployment methods."
"The solution should allow the automation of playbooks."
"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."
"Support-wise they need to be better."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint could improve by an overall simplification of the solution."
"It has very good integrations. However, its integration with Palo Alto was not good, and they seem to be working on it at the backend. It is not very resource-hungry, but it can be even better in terms of resource utilization. It could be improved in terms of efficiency, memory sizing, and disk consumption by agents."
"Recently, Trellix has introduced a CDR, which involves more manual response than automatic. I believe they should enhance the system by adding features like automated response and the ability to create custom playbooks. This is crucial for an EDR solution, and currently, Trellix lacks this feature while other products offer it."
"They have something called Managed Detection and Response. They get intel from their customers, and that intel is shared with the rest of FireEye's customers. I want to subscribe to their intel, but that is not available to us."
"I would like to see more local integration for the applications that we use."
"The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"There is an annual license to use this solution. The price of the solution can be expensive depending on the company."
"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is not an expensive solution."
"Its price is very high. It is higher than its competitors, and it should be less."
"The pricing is great and licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"Trellix may cost around $46 to $47 for a single license without an EDR."
"The tool is affordable"
"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."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not very good, and I would rate its cost three out of five, though I won't be able to mention how much its actual price is."
