Trellix Endpoint Security Platform Reviews

We use Trellix Endpoint Security for endpoint protection, including virus protection for desktops, laptops, and servers. The solution includes special dedicated modules, such as those for Microsoft SharePoint security.

Trellix Endpoint Security helps us support and secure a large number of endpoints efficiently. We have a lot of installations, supporting up to twenty thousand endpoints. With the central management system EPO, it has significantly improved our ability to manage security across these devices.

The EPO, the ePolicy Orchestrator, is the best endpoint protection central management system. 

Trellix Endpoint Security has a lot of special small modules that I like very much, such as access protection, adaptive threat prevention, exclusion capabilities, and logging capabilities. Together with disk encryption or file encryption, it provides a comprehensive solution.

The detection and response capabilities need to be improved. The product is not sharp enough in catching viruses, and we often have to use additional components alongside the pure endpoint security. Symantec, for example, might be better in this area.

We have been working with Trellix Endpoint Security for about 20 years.

The stability of the solution is very high, I'd rate it around eight or nine out of ten.

Scalability is high; I'd rate it 20 out of ten if possible.

Technical support is correct and absolutely helpful. We had some issues during the migration from McAfee to Trellix, particularly with account migrations, but generally, support has been good.

Positive

I have used Fortinet Endpoint Management, Symantec, Kaspersky, Check Point, and others. Among these, I find that the EPO system of Trellix is the best.

I like the initial setup very much because Trellix Endpoint Security has a lot of special small modules and configurations. It's flexible and allows for detailed customizations.

The pricing of the solution is correct and justified for the value it provides.

I'd rate the solution eight out of ten.

The solution is used, especially by those who want an antivirus product. It is also useful for those looking for tools that offer endpoint detection and response features. The product offers multiple features, one of which is endpoint security.

The product has improved its malware protection features since it provides a couple of features that no other solution does. The tool is helpful for multiple companies.

The tool streamlines the incident response process.

The most effective part of the product for threat prevention is related to the tool's rollback feature.

Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is like an antivirus tool, but it doesn't alone provide the rollback feature since it is something that is possible with Trellix Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR).

The tool does provide adaptive threat protection features.

I recommend the product to those who plan to use it.

I rate the tool a seven to eight out of ten.

Customers use Trellix Endpoint Security as an anti-malware or antivirus solution that provides AI and machine learning features. The solution provides DAC (Dynamic Access Control) and HIPS (host intrusion prevention system) functionality in its firewall module. It also has a web control functionality, wherein we can allow, deny, or choose the category part and work it out.

Trellix Endpoint Security provides a single umbrella kind of architecture. A lot of different solutions come under a single umbrella and a single console. The most valuable features of the solution include DLP (data loss prevention), CASB (cloud access security broker) functionality, endpoint encryption, and cloud workload security. The solution also has features like application control, device control, and cloud DLP.

The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format.

Trellix Endpoint Security should include the virtual patching feature in the next release.

I have been working with Trellix Endpoint Security for one year.

I rate Trellix Endpoint Security a nine out of ten for stability.

We evaluated three vendors. We decided to go to McAfee Endpoint Security for better availability, ease of use, and deployment.

I recommend McAfee Endpoint Security to others and rate it a seven out of ten.

The product is fairly reliable. I have been using the DLP functionality a lot. It blocks all USB-connected devices but still allows charging external devices like phones. It keeps out any malware. It does a good job of protecting our network as an enterprise solution. I mainly use it as an antivirus and DLP solution.

The product is not easy to use. Moving around in it is cumbersome. I have heard other users saying that it is cumbersome to find things. Creating and deploying policies with DLP can be really cumbersome. It can be difficult if we don’t know how to use it. Sometimes, we have difficulty in communicating with clients. Sometimes, we have to go through troubleshooting to fix it.

I have been using the solution for 17 to 18 years. I am using the latest version of the solution.

I rate the product’s stability an eight out of ten.

I rate the solution’s scalability an eight out of ten.

It's pretty straightforward to deploy the product as an enterprise solution. I create a System Tree, and I break everything out between VMs, workstations, servers, and VLANs.

We have seen a return on investment.

I would definitely tell people to try the tool. They must go through and test out different solutions. Trellix Endpoint Security is fairly easy to use and manage for an enterprise solution. I'm in the process of getting more visibility for my service desk. The ability to lock it back down and only give what I want the service desk to see is valuable because it gives it a little bit more visibility without affecting what I've done as an enterprise admin. Overall, I rate the tool a nine out of ten.

My company uses Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for endpoint protection and scanning.

The most valuable feature of the solution is its advanced ability to search for threats.

Performance is a problematic area in the solution needing improvement. There are some weird problems in the endpoint protection or security of the solution.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for two years. I am an end user of the product.

Though it is a stable solution, we face performance issues with the solution in our company.

Considering my company's current scenario, there are around 5000 users of the solution.

The installation phase of the solution was very easy.

The deployment phase of the solution takes around an hour.

Only one IT person is required to install the solution.

My company contacts the product's local integrator for support.

Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is not a cheap solution. I don't know about the licensing course since my company uses the solution with the licenses provided by our central health center office, a public organization managed by the government. I don't think any costs are involved in the maintenance of the solution.

It is very easy to maintain the solution.

I suggest checking for the product's performance issues for those planning to use the solution.

I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.

We are using McAfee MVISION Endpoint for our endpoints. It manages our antivirus and does antivirus deployments.

The most valuable features of McAfee MVISION Endpoint are advanced threat protection, web filtering, and removable storage devices in the DLP.

McAfee MVISION Endpoint could improve by an overall simplification of the solution.

I have been using McAfee MVISION Endpoint for approximately two years.

McAfee MVISION Endpoint is stable.

We have approximately 200 users using this solution in my organization.

The support from McAfee MVISION Endpoint is very good.

We previously used the on-premise version of McAfee MVISION Endpoint. It was very similar. However, we switched so we did not have to manage the server ourselves.

The initial setup of McAfee MVISION Endpoint is not difficult because it is on the cloud. However, policies are complex.

We had a discount when purchasing the solution because of the size of our company and we are happy with the price.

We have two administrators that are managing this solution.

My advice to others is for them to try the solution out. It is important to check, l the complexity of the solution because it's a great solution with lots of features and can do very granular settings. However, this can also be something that can be a hindrance because it does make it a very complex solution to learn. 

It is a great solution overall. There is a bit of a learning curve on it when you compare it with other platforms, which I think might be simpler to manage, or more straightforward. It's a very complex solution you have to get used to it.

I rate McAfee MVISION Endpoint an eight out of ten.

It serves as a comprehensive endpoint security solution that goes beyond traditional antivirus by incorporating features such as document scanning for sensitive information, approval workflows for document sharing, patch management, and advanced threat detection using AI and machine learning. It actively monitors various endpoints, including web interactions and email communications, to detect and prevent a wide range of attacks, even those that are not signature-based.

One of the standout features of this solution is its encryption capabilities and DLP functionality. It provides a robust defense against cybersecurity threats while offering user-friendly features like notifications and approval prompts. The encryption feature provides peace of mind in the event of a lost or stolen device, safeguarding sensitive conversations and data from unauthorized access. This level of protection significantly reduces the risk of extortion attempts or data breaches, making it a valuable asset for any organization. So far, I haven't experienced any security breaches or attacks.

I've encountered minor challenges related to encryption.

I have been using it for a year.

We have a user base of over one hundred individuals who use the software.

The decision to implement endpoint security software like Trellix is made at a company-wide level, involving discussions and agreements between various entities, including our parent company and potentially other subsidiaries like the one in Sweden. This decision isn't made independently by individual branches like Kenya; rather, it's coordinated and negotiated at a higher level.

I operate within a managed environment where the IT team handles the installation and setup of endpoint security software. Once installed, they provide me with the necessary details, such as login credentials and instructions for changing passwords. My role primarily involves using the machines provided to me, without needing to delve into the setup process.

Compared to the solutions, it helped us to save at least ten to twenty percent, if not more. 

I would emphasize its affordability rather than merely focusing on cheapness. It provides good value by striking a balance between cost-effectiveness and feature richness.

I would recommend conducting a proof of concept to explore the features firsthand. It's essential to understand what you currently have in place, as that will help determine whether the solution is the right fit for your needs. After that, ensure that the POC is conducted efficiently so that you can make an informed decision about whether to proceed with the solution or consider other options. Overall, , I would rate it an eight out of ten. It's a good solution that meets my needs satisfactorily.
