Executive SummaryUpdated on Dec 21, 2025

Trellix Endpoint Security Platform and Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response compete in the cybersecurity category, offering comprehensive endpoint protection. Each product has strengths; however, Trellix EDR appears to have an edge with its advanced threat detection and response features, benefiting organizations focused on detailed threat analysis and rapid response.

Features: Trellix Endpoint Security Platform provides antivirus, data loss prevention, and centralized management via its integration with ePolicy Orchestrator, facilitating streamlined management and deployment. In contrast, Trellix EDR offers advanced real-time attack visualization and response capabilities, along with strong threat intelligence and detection features supported by guided analytics for effective threat investigation.

Room for Improvement: Trellix Endpoint Security Platform requires advancements in scalability and reporting, reduction in high CPU and RAM usage, and quicker technical support response times, with improvements needed in encryption speed and policy creation complexities. Trellix EDR should focus on enhancing user-friendliness of the dashboard, better integration with macOS, and scalability improvements, in addition to addressing support responsiveness and resource consumption on endpoints.

Ease of Deployment and Customer Service: Trellix Endpoint Security Platform supports on-premises to hybrid cloud deployments, appealing to various infrastructure setups, while its customer service is generally responsive with room for technical support enhancement.

Cross-site threat hunting has improved visibility and supports proactive incident response
I believe this is a product in evolution. I do not think it is a final tool to conduct forensics or information forensics of the incidents or information incidents that could arise in our network infrastructure. Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR) is interesting and is a very good entry point that has been evolving through the last years. In the next two months, I have a new contract, and we are pointing out to have an XDR solution with NDR and EDR together. I do not have enough time to do it because I am the manager. However, my coworkers do not understand it yet. I have a contract with a third-party company that is making reports around that, but also they do not have enough experience or enough utility of this. It would be interesting if I have a notification system from EDR. For example, if I am the manager, it would be interesting to have a warning, alarm, or something around that which could call me to get into the system and the dashboard to see what is happening. For example, if it is a high-level threat. However, most of them are just advisory or warnings. I do not enter the tool frequently. I guess I access it once every three months.

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.
