It's a complete solution package
When I go into the portal, I can see how many endpoints are enrolled or how many of them are active in place. I can see the current number of threats that are there in the organization. How many threats have been identified, etc. I can see which endpoint the critical events are coming in from a security aspect.

Threat detection is effective, and the solution provides good control over device access, but it still needs better troubleshooting options for agent-related issues.
From an improvement perspective, I am looking for a way to troubleshoot situations where the endpoint agent becomes corrupted and requires reinstallation, as there is currently no option to resolve these issues without rebooting the system. I give it a rating of seven because, in today’s scenario, the portal is complicated to navigate. The Trellix Endpoint Security Platform dashboard is somewhat difficult to understand, and it takes considerable time to familiarize oneself with the tools and policies compared to other solutions. For on-premises deployment, I would also like to highlight that the architecture is quite complex, which is an area Trellix Endpoint Security Platform should consider improving.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It's a complete solution package."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"The activation of features within ENS and the collection of threats into a single console is a strong point."
"It can be deployed quickly, and it's scalable. Those are the two advantages of it."
"Provides good mobile device protection."
"This product has the capability to check a wide range of vulnerabilities and devices."
"The setup is not that complex. It takes five to ten minutes to set up."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"The thing that I like is that they have gathered almost all the products in one management server, the ePolicy Orchestrator."
"The solution provides a data view of the Alpha systems with Trellix installs and makes small changes to the central management console. Nothing on the endpoints themselves works, but it focuses more on the management side."
 

Cons

"The pricing could be improved."
"We found limitations in the XDR's detections, lacking the ability to create customized detection and log parsing rules."
"They could provide better integration capabilities for the product with other services."
"There are more secure featured solutions from McAfee on the market but for smaller companies like ours, they are too expensive."
"The customization capabilities of the solution are an area where it lacks, so it would be great if our company could customize the solution to meet the demands of our customers."
"There are a few areas where Trellix Endpoint Security can improve. Firstly, the high CPU utilization when agents are installed can negatively impact client systems."
"I would like to see simple processing and reporting online."
"The software download features could stand improvement."
"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 product could do more to keep administration alerted to detected threats on endpoints."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing is six out of ten."
"I think Trellix is more on the higher side of the market, just on a general scale, but I also think it depends on what particular package you choose."
"The price of this product is good."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be made free."
"We had a discount when purchasing the solution because of the size of our company and we are happy with the price."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"The current pricing is much better than before because they now offer product-related promotions along with some changes in product licensing. The new pricing model is better than before."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"It's fairly priced compared to other products on the market."
