Abhimanyu Das - PeerSpot reviewer

Threat detection is effective, and the solution provides good control over device access, but it still needs better troubleshooting options for agent-related issues.
From an improvement perspective, I am looking for a way to troubleshoot situations where the endpoint agent becomes corrupted and requires reinstallation, as there is currently no option to resolve these issues without rebooting the system. I give it a rating of seven because, in today’s scenario, the portal is complicated to navigate. The Trellix Endpoint Security Platform dashboard is somewhat difficult to understand, and it takes considerable time to familiarize oneself with the tools and policies compared to other solutions. For on-premises deployment, I would also like to highlight that the architecture is quite complex, which is an area Trellix Endpoint Security Platform should consider improving.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The insight that the solution provides is the most valuable aspect. The security scanning they do is excellent."
"The ease of deployment has been good."
"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is a perfect product for endpoint security."
"The most valuable feature of Datto EDR is the visibility of the endpoints."
"The product can be installed in almost any environment"
"It is a stable solution...The solution's technical support is good."
"There is a new feature where you can set thresholds for all the CPU consumption allowing for no consumption on the servers when the scans happen. It is a separate plugin or addon, and if we have it on all the virtual machines it automatically checks the resources, and based on that, it will schedule the scans. That is something that I have not seen in other antivirus solutions, such as Symantec."
"We can manage everything from the central console and it is very easy."
"The detection is great and the solution is constantly improving."
"The endpoint protection and disk encryption features are the most valuable."
"The DLP and user interface are the most valuable feature."
"McAfee Complete Endpoint Protection is stable. We don't have any bugs being reported."
 

Cons

"The solution could improve by having more deployment methods."
"The inclusion of web filtering would be good."
"The deployment of the solution right now is terrible. We find it to be very bad. It could be improved enormously."
"The solution should allow the automation of playbooks."
"The initial setup is complex. It is a very complex product. You must have experience with it."
"Technical support from the vendor is very bad."
"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."
"Currently, Trellix Endpoint Security can't find the running mutexes, while other open-source products can do it."
"I give it a seven because in today's scenario, the portal is complicated to handle."
"We don't like the solution since it requires much memory consumption and consumes much CPU resources."
"They could also increase or improve the scalability because to my knowledge the biggest bandwidth can only support up to 10 gigs of input."
"The platform needs improvement in terms of handling heavy databases."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Datto Endpoint Detection and Response is not an expensive solution."
"There is an annual license to use this solution. The price of the solution can be expensive depending on the company."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and quite reasonable compared to other similar products."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"The price of McAfee is pretty similar to Symantec, and there are no costs in addition to the standard licensing fees."
"It is a yearly subscription-based product, which includes the license and hardware. There is also a subscription for technical support up to five years."
"The license costs are very reasonable, around 1,000 to 1,200 rupees per year."
"The pricing is more or less the same as the other tools in the market."
"There's a subscription on a yearly basis. It's not that expensive; it's quite affordable."
