We performed a comparison between Malwarebytes and Trellix Endpoint Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's scalability is quite good, and you can add licenses to the solution."
"The price is low and quite competitive with others."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"NGAV and EDR features are outstanding."
"The console is easy to read. I also like the scanning part and the ability to move assets from one to the other."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"Being able to carry out a full scan on your system."
"I was very satisfied with Malwarebytes in terms of its antivirus abilities."
"It allows us to have better knowledge of the way people use the tool and how we can improve their workflows."
"It comprehensively finds and removes malicious software."
"I like the solution's ability to detect potentially unwanted programs. For some reason, it seems superior to other solutions, or at least in comparison to McAfee."
"The endpoint protection and response that allows us to restore a machine back to a pre-infected state are the most valuable features."
"The dashboard actually is good and it is simple."
"The solution is very good at scanning."
"One valuable feature is Threat Prevention with the on-demand scan."
"The product is fairly reliable."
"The solution provides dashboard control, so we can centrally monitor the entire status of our organization."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"I like trap prevention DNS and threat prevention."
"The solution is stable."
"I have found the most valuable features to be the ability to manage the solution from anywhere and having an overview of the companies security."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"They can include the automation for the realtime updates. We have a network infrastructure with remote sites. Whenever they send updates, they are not automated. We have to go into the console and push those updates. I wish it was more automated. The update file is currently around 31 MB. It could be smaller."
"The solution is not stable."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"FortiEDR can be improved by providing more detailed reporting."
"The security should be strong for the cloud. Some applications are on-prem and some are on the cloud. Fortinet should also have strong security for the cloud. There should be more security for the cloud."
"The stability and performance of the solution are areas with shortcomings that need improvement."
"The EPP solution lacks the sophisticated artificial intelligence required for automating reports and letting you know about things in real-time. It stops a suspicious activity in real-time, but it doesn't let you know in real-time. You have to look at a report, and then you find out that something is wrong. You have to manually kick off a scan. With the Advanced EDR solutions, Malwarebytes has the ability to alert you in real-time, but they still don't do automatic remediation or quarantining of devices. That is something that you still have to do manually. So, the endpoint protection piece, which is just like their basic endpoint protection, lacks AI. For the advanced detection and response piece, there is an add-on that comes with it, but it still doesn't go far enough in terms of automatic remediation of viruses. It won't separate that virus from your network if something happens. You have to manually go there and do it."
"We experience a lot of false positives."
"If they want to compete with bigger players, they should consider adding items like threat detection and website warnings."
"They could come up with better reporting capabilities."
"Malwarebytes is too simplistic. From a SOC IR perspective, it doesn't give you very much data around it. It doesn't tie things or provide SHA-1 and SHA-256 detection information, which makes it hard to do an additional investigation."
"They can include advanced scanning and improve reporting. I scan malware on the pen drive. Some more reports need to be added for that. It should also provide better protection because we have a new version of the malware."
"The product has major problems in almost every facet of setup and use including setup, configuration, lack of functionality, lack of stability, false positives, questionable reporting, inability to protect from randsomeware and poor technical support and development."
"Currently, Trellix Endpoint Security can't find the running mutexes, while other open-source products can do it."
"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."
"The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format."
"The security of this solution needs improvement."
"The product could do more to keep administration alerted to detected threats on endpoints."
"I would like to see more integration with third-party products."
"The solution could use better updates and fewer bugs."
"The DAC (Dynamic Application Containment) component of this product needs improvement."
