The tool provides excellent sandboxing and email security features, but the backup and recovery features are not good
If my primary solution is down, no backup solution is available to restore it. It is one of the biggest weaknesses of the platform. If I need to update the solution, there is no option to pick the events and the logs from it and deploy it in another solution. The backup and recovery features of the product are not good. I need backup. If the tool is down for some time, I cannot get the logs at that particular time.

Strong endpoint protection has simplified compliance and reduced effort for large user environments
One of the best features of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is its endpoint security, and I have been using it for the last four and a half to five years, so I can say this is one of the best EDR endpoint security solutions I have ever seen. The features that make Trellix Endpoint Security Platform stand out for me are ease of use and analytics, which I really appreciate the most. Trellix Endpoint Security Platform positively impacts my organization, ensuring we are compliant with SOC 2, HIPAA, and all other compliance requirements, so there are no issues with that.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very easy to use. Its interface is very simple, and you can build IOC's indicators. You can use your rules to detect these attacks because you can leverage threat intelligence. Y"
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is stable and runs all the time."
"The Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform provides visibility into telemetry data, enabling comprehensive monitoring of environmental activities."
"The most valuable use is detailing metadata collection from the endpoint and network."
"The email security feature is really good."
"The product's deployment phase is easy."
"I feel the anti-ransomware update is one of the tool's valuable features."
"The solution provides good mobile device protection and it's great that it's on the cloud."
"McAfee Complete Endpoint Protection is very stable."
"Daily, we had a thousand attempts of data leakage, and we could prevent many situations."
"It's good that it periodically scans all my drives. I can stay up to date with the status of my drivers and update them if needed."
"The detection capability of Trellix Endpoint Security is higher than traditional antivirus solutions."
"One of the best features of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is its endpoint security, and I have been using it for the last four and a half to five years, so I can say this is one of the best EDR endpoint security solutions I have ever seen."
"The most valuable feature is the centralized console where everything can be controlled by the administration."
"Trellix integrates well with most SIEM and data classification solutions."
 

Cons

"The blind spot or gap in the platform is network analysis functionality."
"I think the tool is still not really good enough for integration compared to other products."
"In some of the places I have come across, even though they use Kaspersky, the ransomware enters their system."
"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is not a good product. We had problems with endpoints and the solution did not detect it. We didn't get any alerts about the attack."
"The solution lacks cloud integrations."
"The backup and recovery features of the product are not good."
"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."
"The reports need more development. They need more details on the reports and more details taking the executive view into consideration."
"It would be nice if the solution was a bit more stable."
"On the older ePO versions, there were some issues at the install, but with the latest version, the installation is smooth."
"Their support is not good and needs to be improved."
"The detection and response capabilities need to be improved."
"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."
"It would be nice to have the ability to change Safeboot passwords from within the OS as there is a delay in the boot process and password changes can take time."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Kaspersky Anti-Targeted Attack Platform is cheap."
"Kaspersky is one of the cheaper solutions."
"The solution has competitive pricing."
"McAfee's prices are flexible and can be quite competitive, although there are other solutions that are even more so."
"The initial price is very good as they give good initial discounts, but it seems a little expensive once you renew the license."
"We pay 650 Rand for a license. It is a perpetual license which we normally run for two years."
"There are some extra expenses for using the product, in addition to licensing related to the maintenance of the product."
"The pricing is mid-ranged and quite reasonable compared to other similar products."
"The license costs are very reasonable, around 1,000 to 1,200 rupees per year."
"The price of this product is good."
"The solution is not an expensive tool. Compared to other options, it's mostly average-priced. I've deployed it for customers ranging from 100 nodes to over 5,000 nodes. Its renewal prices are very low, and it offers both perpetual and subscription licenses. With a perpetual license, the product will keep working as long as it's not end-of-life, which benefits companies."
