Though the solution offers good technical support, it needs to be made more user-friendly
I rate the initial setup a seven and a half out of ten. So, it's closer to seven. The tool is deployed in our organization on-premises with some test servers. In only two tests in a test environment, the deployment can be carried out. The deployment time only depends on the size of your infrastructure. If I limit the company's size, it will not take too much time. So, it can be done in seven to eight hours. Regarding the deployment process, we have managed some test servers, after which we need to install some agents. If you include more servers, you need to install more agents. If you want to use agent-based, I would say that it is totally up to the stakeholder. You will get some additional benefits if you can choose the agent since you will be more assured that less positive false positive results you will get from the tool. For deployment, one test server, a few deployment servers, and some policy configurations are done by the OEM with some local support. We used some Windows servers and Linux servers, and we installed some agents in different types of operating systems. So different versions of Linux and different versions of Windows. We also integrate some network devices like firewalls to integrate firewalls and logs. So, the amount of logs and firewalls is too much. I have to engage too many employees for deployment. So there are those for Linux servers, others for Windows servers, and the rest for network devices. One for SIEM policy creation and one for SIEM management administration is also required.

Experiencing frequent disconnections and support challenges but benefits from quick implementation and integration capabilities
The timeout of the tenant is an area that needs improvement. When investigating and gathering information from the Helix tenant for extended periods, disconnections occur. This results in lost work and the need to restart investigations due to disconnected sessions. It is problematic when progress is lost and investigations must be restarted, resulting in lost information and significant time wastage. The capability to integrate with other TIPs or cybersecurity intelligence sources could be improved to determine whether IOCs are malicious, similar to Mandiant's functionality. The capacity to reduce false positives needs improvement as we receive many alerts from Helix that turn out to be false positives upon investigation. Enhanced capability in this area would make the system more efficient and easier to use. The dashboards could be improved as customers frequently request real-time SOC dashboard displays for Helix.

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of this solution is the reporting."
"The most valuable feature is the management features. It's capable of managing large enterprises."
"The configuration part is very easy...The technical support was sincere in their responses...I rate the technical support a nine out of ten."
"We developed around this solution and received excellent support from the company."
"FireEye Helix's best features are its speed and use of an easy-to-understand language to send queries to the raw logs."
"Trellix Helix helps prevent email attacks, like phishing and email spoofing attacks."
"The product offers very strong automation. Our cyber security analysts don't have to correlate the information to detect problems. They only need to analyze problems that have been identified by the platform."
"The integration is very useful and very easy. You can have an API connection with any cloud and I'll be able to do both ways of communication with the help of APA."
"We are able to block some advanced malware and other things."
"The most valuable features include predefined use cases and threatening states."
"As far as its core functionality goes, it’s spot-on."
"We have started working with various customers, one of whom is particularly concerned about adjacency. We have identified several use cases where automation is possible."
 

Cons

"Licensing could be improved to be more oriented towards Managed Service Providers (MSPs)."
"RSA enVision log manager is out of date and is not in use anymore."
"In general, the solution currently isn't user-friendly."
"The integration could be easier, it should support more products."
"Trellix Helix's configuration and learning could be improved to identify normal traffic from abnormal and to identify trusted domains."
"It should have more cloud connectors. It could also be cheaper."
"Integrations could be improved, and the dashboard could be a little better."
"While we have top customer support and this solution is highly beneficial, there is room for improvement due to the fusion of McAfee and FireEye, which has caused some lapses in support."
"We have certain challenges with integrating the SOAR platform with multiple vendors."
"FireEye Helix would be improved with the option of an on-prem version, which they don't currently offer."
"Trellix needs to address the price for the product to be more appealing to customers."
"The support would rate a three out of ten. It can take one to four weeks to connect with someone who truly understands Helix and can provide solutions."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We no longer pay a licensing fee because it is out of date and don't pay for support."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high price, I rate the pricing a six."
"The price could be better. But I think it's rightly placed when we buy everything in one shot, and we get some discount for that. That's how we basically plan our deployment, and it's holistic. We pay for the license yearly."
"It could be cheaper, but that applies to every product."
"I rate Trellix Helix a five out of ten for pricing."
"FireEye Helix is a little expensive."
