Featured Reviews

Melvin Ong - PeerSpot reviewer
Has plug-and-play capability once configured and good reporting system
The tool's most valuable features have been its plug-and-play capability once configured and its reporting system is good. The most improved feature of asset auditing is its physical logging of all software. This allows us to understand what software and applications are installed on endpoints. We can easily check which software applications are installed in the network infrastructure during client processing or audits.
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.

Pros

"The tool's most valuable features have been its plug-and-play capability once configured and its reporting system is good. The most improved feature of asset auditing is its physical logging of all software. This allows us to understand what software and applications are installed on endpoints. We can easily check which software applications are installed in the network infrastructure during client processing or audits."
"FireEye Endpoint Security is easy to use and lightweight compared to others."
"The seamless deployment is very valuable."

Cons

"The tool needs to be more user-friendly."
"An area in need of improvement involves the overview, which usually does not enable one to get the value in reports."
"The endpoint has room for improvement because it's restrictive, it's very sensitive. Sometimes it can delete something that you need and so sometimes you have to disable the antivirus."
"The solution lacks device control."
"I've encountered minor challenges related to encryption."
"The product could do more to keep administration alerted to detected threats on endpoints."
"Endpoint resource utilization causes high levels of instability and that is something that needs improvement."
"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."
