Director Consulting SAP OpenText en Entelgy at DCL Consultores EIM SL
A stable and scalable hybrid solution with easy setup
The solution is scalable. It has three levels. You have the presentation area that can be escalated to the balance sheet. You have the back-end area that can be escalated using higher viability to configure more application servers. Also, the area of storage can be increased. We usually cater to enterprise solutions but have small- and medium-sized customers. It starts with 25 users and goes up to 100s and 1000s.

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 most important feature we've found is the Enscripts, as it allows me to customize the scripts and deploy them as and how I need them, for example to segregate and index files efficiently."
"Image creation and image analysis in one program, basically for ease of use."
"Data Recovery: Its ability to repair damaged partitions and uncover hidden partitions from within the tool, and allow further analysis."
"Using Encase we are able to implement security and also Forensics."
"The most important feature we've found is the Enscripts. That is one powerful feature that I, personally, love to use."
"The solution is very stable."
"The solution has been quite good, and, overall, the features we need are available to us."
"I like the processing feature on the product because it does everything at once, i.e, indexing, recovery, keyword searches, etc."
"The endpoint protection and disk encryption features are the most valuable."
"The investigation and forensic analysis have been most helpful."
"I would recommend this product."
"If the network has seen something, we can use that to put a block to all the endpoints."
"The MEP suite has significantly helped us to mitigate the risk of getting malicious content in our network from various mediums."
"I found the initial setup to be easy."
"What it does, it does really well, and you're able to experience possibly what's among the best products in the market."
"I have not faced any problems with scalability so far, but we are starting an upgrade or overhaul."
 

Cons

"This is not the program I would suggest for a newbie using to learn. It is just too expensive for the full experience, and the student versions, while very good, are just for that, students."
"​Sometimes the application can take more time to complete the image processing or fail at the end of the process.​"
"The reporting is a bit unreliable. It needs to be better."
"We have come across problems with the end-case. We could not find an email discovery type of module and there was not flexibility with the email."
"There were minor UI bugs."
"Ease of use and learning curve need improvement."
"I suggest that if the mobile phone acquisition is embedded in the Encase law enforcement version, it would be very useful."
"From a customer service standpoint, this is unacceptable."
"I've encountered minor challenges related to encryption."
"I think Trellix Endpoint Security Platform needs to expand its sales team in India as they have very few sales team members to capture the market."
"Trellix Endpoint Security needs some improvement in the dashboards. Artificial intelligence also requires improvement to further enhance the product."
"The performance could be better. I noticed that it slows down a bit."
"The stability of the solution was not very 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."
"They could improve it by providing better manageability for administrators. I need to spend too much time on this right now."
"Technical support is an area that can be improved because sometimes, the response time is a bit slow and the explanation is short."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"​The product is affordable and user-friendly.​"
"EnCase is an affordable solution."
"We have a license. And, we found the cost high. We contacted them and talked to them about the ratio of the US dollar versus the Indian rupee and then we came to a solution."
"The pricing is great and licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"It is not so cheap in comparison to Sophos and other solutions."
"We pay 650 Rand for a license. It is a perpetual license which we normally run for two years."
"Compared to Bitdefender, Trellix Endpoint Security is more expensive, but considering it comes with DLP, the solution's price is fine."
"Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is not a cheap solution...I don't think any costs are involved in the maintenance of the solution."
"I don't think there are any extra expenses besides its licensing costs."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"Customers would need to purchase a license. If a customer purchases an MVISION Endpoint license, he may use that license to install ENS. It's a flexible license where you have the option to either use the McAfee security software or the Windows Defender managed by McAfee, which is MVISION Endpoint."
