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 ( /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.

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."
"The new central console is better than the earlier one."
"The agents are easy to deploy."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix Endpoint Security is its extensive customization capability, which allows me to create and deploy policies autonomously, suiting my individual needs."
"Initially, the DLP was very valuable for disabling access to USB drives."
"The most valuable feature is the centralized console where everything can be controlled by the administration."
"One valuable feature is Threat Prevention with the on-demand scan."
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
"I think the costing is fine compared to other products. Cost-wise you definitely get value for your money."
 

Cons

"The tool needs to be more user-friendly."
"What needs improvement in Trellix Endpoint Security is the reduction of resource consumption by the scanning feature. There should be daily signature updates for protection."
"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."
"Technical support from the vendor is very bad."
"The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious task."
"The security of this solution needs improvement."
"They could provide better integration capabilities for the product with other services."
"The solution needs to work on memory consumption. It is too high."
"The central monitoring dashboard needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"I rate the solution's pricing a five out of ten."
"The product is expensive."
"There's a subscription on a yearly basis. It's not that expensive; it's quite affordable."
"Microsoft Defender is not cheap and from a cost perspective, Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is a better option."

"Trellix Endpoint Security is an inexpensive platform."
"The tool is affordable"
