"The most valuable feature for our organization is the antivirus, as our staff is the target of zero-day malware and viruses."
"Some important features that are included are the built-in firewall and device control."
"The best thing about Symantec is its ability to control our endpoints from a single point. You can manage the antivirus definitions, upgrades, remote scanning, etc., from one console."
"It is a solid antivirus security product."
"The features we have found most valuable have been containment as well as the ability to triage agent activities."
"Trellix integrates well with most SIEM and data classification solutions."

"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."

"There is no local support for Symantec products in Hong Kong."
"If Symantec wants to improve, they should have a single event for all their products."
"It would be interesting if Symantec Endpoint protection could also manage Windows Defender. If they were to add a feature, it would be nice if you could see the Symantec client and the Windows Defender client in case you choose to deploy both."
"Symantec End-point production doesn't support the EDR function."
"When, Microsoft releases a new OS version twice a year, you never know if the current version of Symantec Endpoint Protection will support it. You can have a lag between when Microsoft releases a new client - and then the current version doesn't work correctly - and it could be some months between updates from Symantec."
"The spam filter is something that you can't control, and you can't set the filter to intercept different types of emails."
"Is not a full anti-ransomware solution."
"The central monitoring dashboard needs improvement."
"If you have another endpoint product running on the same machine, you have to fine tune functions from FireEye to avoid performance and user experience issues."
"McAfee MVISION Endpoint could improve by an overall simplification of the solution."
"They have something called Managed Detection and Response. They get intel from their customers, and that intel is shared with the rest of FireEye's customers. I want to subscribe to their intel, but that is not available to us."
"So far, McAfee MVISION Endpoint ticks off all of our boxes, but its pricing could always be better."
"I would like to see more local integration for the applications that we use."
"There is room for improvement in the pricing. The price should be improved, it's high."
"They could also increase or improve the scalability because to my knowledge the biggest bandwidth can only support up to 10 gigs of input."
