Sentiment score
5.9
Trellix Helix Connect offers efficient support but some users face delays and expertise issues during company restructuring transitions.
They excel in response times and quick reactions when there's an actual threat.
If I raise a ticket, it initially goes to the L1 team, but the next level of escalation is really effective.
There is no UK-based support, which leads to delays in waiting for US support.
We experienced some challenges due to the ongoing transformation and fusion of McAfee and FireEye, but we are committed to improving response times.

Securonix Next-Gen SIEM excels in scalability and performance, efficiently managing large data volumes and user numbers in cloud environments.

Trellix Helix Connect excels in scalability for large enterprises but may be cost-prohibitive for smaller businesses.
We have not had any customers come back to say they cannot scale at the speed of their business growth.
I can rate it around eight to nine, and it is very scalable and capable of handling tasks, especially for the on-premises product.
The solution is scalable as it is cloud-based and cloud-native.
We support the largest companies in the world and can cater to large environments.

Trellix Helix Connect is highly stable and reliable, with minor fixable issues, earning near-perfect user ratings.
The stability of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is based on the events we are processing.
The availability is high, which is critical for our customers who rely on a single panel of glass to operate.
 

Room For Improvement

Securonix Next-Gen SIEM needs improvements in user experience, integration, automation, customization, technical support, and compatibility with other technologies.
Trellix Helix Connect needs better integrations, UI improvements, competitive pricing, more cloud connectors, fewer false positives, and domain distinction.
Developing custom connectors for each product, especially the internal applications, is difficult, and Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is not up to the mark.
When dealing with a large amount of data, such as when firewall logs increase, queries sometimes crash or get stuck.
The passing and setup are quite complex at the beginning, making onboarding not smooth.
We have just released the solutions to the market recently, making it a revolution in the cybersecurity sector.
 

Setup Cost

Securonix Next-Gen SIEM offers transparent, competitive pricing based on users, excluding data charges, making it attractive for enterprises.
Trellix Helix Connect is costly, ideal for large enterprises, free for FireEye users, with mixed expense ratings.
Licensing is based on events per second (EPS), costing between $50 to $60 per EPS.
The solution is definitely not expensive.
The pricing has similar ingestion charges compared to other solutions, such as Splunk.
It is not the cheapest, but also not the most expensive solution.
 

Valuable Features

Securonix Next-Gen SIEM enhances threat detection through advanced analytics and AI-driven features, reducing false positives and manual efforts.
Trellix Helix Connect enhances cybersecurity with seamless API integration, automation, AI analysis, and over 400 customizable connectors.
The other SIEM solutions lack an option for big data analysis, whereas in the Securonix Next-Gen SIEM, we have this option.
The software includes user behavior interactions, dashboards, and training capabilities.
Now, the process is automatic, reducing our workload.
Trellix Helix, as an AI XDR platform, helps our organization by offering an extensive number of connectors for integration, enabling us to consolidate all information in a single dashboard.

Featured Reviews

Mohammed Nadeem Rais - PeerSpot reviewer
The visibility and analytics from Securonix SIEM have become indispensable in identifying and stopping potential threats before they escalate.
The most valuable feature of Securonix Next-Gen SIEM is its advance analytics, flexibility and scalability. We ingest billions of logs without worrying about resource allocation. This makes it a robust and cost-effective solution for our needs. Its user entity and behavior analytics (UEBA) are also integral for detecting insider threats and lateral movements within the organization. These features help organizations strengthen their security posture, protect sensitive data, and maintain compliance with strict regulatory requirements.
Daniel_Martins - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
