Featured Reviews

Shreyansh Sharma - PeerSpot reviewer
Our main antivirus tool and offers adaptive threat prevention tool
The technical support needs some improvement. When product distribution errors occur, we have to contact technical support, which is a very tedious and time consuming task. After raising the call onto the technical support portal, usually receive a notification after 24 hours. It usually takes 3 to 4 days to conclude and resolve the issue. If 24/7 online support or a phone line where we could speak directly with technical support for real-time troubleshooting, that would be very helpful. Licensing is another aspect where trellix should look into. Different purchases are grouped together in single user account get mixed up. Categorization of purchases and their grant numbers is not available to end user.

Though support needs improvement, the tool is easy to maintain and scale up
Veritas Desktop and Laptop Option's server and GUI are of an old style that could be improved. In the solution, the number of errors we have are not so intuitive to fix, because of which an older person like me needs to be here, making it the last and worst thing of the solution. The support team of the product lacks skills and needs improvement. I would have mentioned that Veritas needs to make their solution available in the cloud, but I am sure they already have it.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The platform’s most valuable features are ease of use, integration, and deployment."
"Trellix Endpoint Security has a full suite of DLP."
"I recommend Trellix Endpoint Security to others as it seems like one of the industry standards and is fairly stable."
"We have a cloud-based instance, so we can deploy all our configurations through the cloud. That's the beauty of FireEye."
"The threat scanning is excellent. It uses predictive technology and I can utilize attack data to help us fine-tune our systems and network infrastructure. This protects us against current and future attacks."
"Trellix Endpoint Security seems to do a good job in terms of protecting my infrastructure from malware."
"A great console with a user-friendly GUI."
"The exploit guard and malware protection features are very useful. The logon tracker feature is also very useful. They have also given new modules such as logout backup, process backup. We ordered these modules from the FireEye market place, and we have installed these modules. We are currently exploring these features."
"The solution provides an easy GUI allowing you to use it as a backup and restore your computer whenever you want, following administrator rules."
 

Cons

"In some cases, the detection part was not accurate enough. We opened a few cases for the vendor to help us with some miscategorized findings on the endpoints. There were some false positive detections, and we had to work with the vendor to get them tested. We even had some incidents that were not detected. It was a black box type of solution for us."
"The reports need more development. They need more details on the reports and more details taking the executive view into consideration."
"The solution can be expensive."
"A policy-editing console should be added."
"The Linux support is very poor. I use base detection. Currently, they are providing malware protection and logon track features in Windows and Mac. These features aren't available in Linux. It will be helpful to extend these capabilities to Linux. We would also like assets grouping and device lock protection features, which are included in their roadmap."
"They could also increase or improve the scalability because to my knowledge the biggest bandwidth can only support up to 10 gigs of input."
"Endpoint resource utilization causes high levels of instability and that is something that needs improvement."
"The initial setup can be a bit complicated for those unfamiliar with the product."
"The support team of the product lacks skills and needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Microsoft Defender is not cheap and from a cost perspective, Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is a better option."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"It is based on an annual subscription."
"The price of the product is similar to the ones in the market that offer the same features."
"We are on an annual subscription for McAfee MVISION Endpoint. The cost for the license could be less expensive."
"Licensing fees are billed on a yearly basis."
"Pricing for McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not very good, and I would rate its cost three out of five, though I won't be able to mention how much its actual price is."
"There's a subscription on a yearly basis. It's not that expensive; it's quite affordable."
