Comes with data leak protection features but technical support is too slow
We use the solution for endpoints.  The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection.  Safetica ONE's technical support is too slow.  I have been using the product for six months.  I rate the product's stability a nine out of ten.  I rate Safetica ONE's scalability a five out of…

Distributors highly benefit from advanced data monitoring and seamless integration features
The Machine Learning capability could be improved, particularly in data discovery. When given sensitive data expressions, the system retrieves files that are not always related. The system should adhere strictly to the given expression rather than just focusing on keywords within the expression. In endpoint features, while the detection rate is good, there could be improvements in remediation and rollback solutions during attacks. Other solutions now include such options since providing 100% security is impossible. The flexibility varies across environments. Enterprise customers find the product performs well without affecting their data, with scans running as scheduled. However, SMB customers experience some performance issues during scanning. Since EDR is integrated, users must access the EDR console to check endpoint detections. It would be beneficial if this functionality were incorporated within the EPO console, as the current threat graphs link doesn't display endpoint threat graphs.

"Safetica ONE is easy to use and set up. We can set up rules and policies quickly."
"This is a good solution, is easy to deploy and is scalable."
"It is a stable solution...The initial setup of Safetica ONE is simple."
"The most valuable feature is the data classification."
"The most valuable things about Safetica ONE are its comprehensive features, competitive pricing, and a strong focus on data security and compliance."
"Safetica NXT provides you with an enterprise-quality data loss prevention system that anybody can pick up because the cost is low and it's easy to manage."
"The support from both the vendor and Trellix is excellent."
"The solution involves implementing the confidentiality, utility, and availability principles."
"It prevents enterprises from installing external software and devices and can block specific network pathways."
"It is a very stable solution."
"Trellix DLP is a very good solution, easy to manage and handle, and newcomers find it user-friendly with an easy-to-use console and dashboard."
"Trellix DLP helps handle false positives, but it depends on your configuration. It is quite overwhelming in terms of its dashboard."
"Scalability is feasible since it's on-premises. It's easy to scale there."
"The most effective aspect of Trellix DLP is that it does what it's supposed to do. It is fairly simple to use compared to Proofpoint."
 

Cons

"Safetica ONE fails to support Linux."
"There are some minor issues with the price and support of the solution that needs to be improved."
"One area for improvement in Safetica is its firewall integration feature."
"The product needs to improve support."
"ESET Safetica’s stability could be improved."
"The solution's most valuable feature is data leak protection."
"This solution could be improved if it was available on Linux as well. Currently it can only be deployed on Mac and Windows."
"Safetica One has every other thing that you need, so I cannot give Safetica NXT a higher mark because it does not have the full features of the enterprise solutions."
"Virtualization is complex and requires proper training. However, once you get trained, it is a very good product."
"Coverage for Mac OS is lacking as features like clipboard and print protection don't function as expected. The agents often affect endpoint performance negatively and do not behave consistently across all machines."
"The main challenge we face is with our on-premises Trellix DLP implementation. While we can push the agent, we cannot apply the policy on Azure systems."
"When cases are raised, partners perform initial L1 or L2 troubleshooting. However, ticket resolution times are often too long, with new engineers sometimes requesting the same logs repeatedly."
"The support team's response time during the night is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Trellix DLP can improve by addressing the lack of features such as deep drive DLP and email notifications present in other solutions like Forcepoint."
"If I compare Trellix DLP with other solutions such as Forcepoint, Trellix DLP isn't up to the mark."
"During the initial setup of Trellix DLP, we faced challenges where the Trellix console buffers multiple times, taking time to reload when clicking on features, which needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Safetica ONE is expensive."
"The licensing cost for this solution depends on the deal size and your use case. In our instance, it costs $35 per user per year. This is a reasonable price."
"The pricing for ESET Safetica is less as compared to other solutions. The customers have to pay only for the license."
"Customers need to pay for a yearly license per device."
"The pricing depends on the number of users in a company."
