My main use case for the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is primarily from an antivirus perspective. We have approximately 1,200 servers where the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is deployed.

Previously, we used it mainly on legacy servers, but now we have implemented the latest version across our Windows Server 2006, 2020, and 2022 environments.

Additionally, we rely on the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform for daily health checks, including all vulnerability assessment (VA) activities. At times, certain exclusions are also required depending on the application or server requirements.

Trellix Endpoint Security Platform has improved our organization in several ways. It has enhanced our overall security posture by providing stronger antivirus protection and better visibility across all endpoints. With around 1,200 servers onboarded, we have seen a noticeable reduction in malware incidents and faster detection of potential threats.

The platform’s centralized management has also improved operational efficiency. Daily health checks, VA activities, and policy enforcement are easier to manage, which has reduced manual effort. Additionally, the ability to configure exclusions and fine-tune policies has helped maintain both performance and security.

Overall, Trellix Endpoint Security Platform has provided more stability, improved endpoint compliance, and strengthened our preventive security controls.

The best features that the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform offers, and which stand out to me, are its reporting capabilities, exclusion policy handling, and detection features.

In terms of reporting and exclusion policies, the platform provides multiple options to generate customized reports, allowing us to filter data and extract exactly what we need. We receive daily requests from the client side for exclusions or process additions, and Trellix makes it easy to manage these efficiently.

Trellix Endpoint Security Platform also provides several advanced capabilities, including EDR for comprehensive threat hunting and attack investigations, along with modules for firewall, web control, ATP, Exploit Prevention, real-time scanning, and on-demand scanning. These features work together to strengthen the overall security of our environment.

Overall, Trellix Endpoint Security Platform has positively impacted our organization by offering strong protection against malware and ransomware. It has significantly improved our ability to detect and block threats in real time, while features like ATP and Exploit Prevention help reduce malware incidents and mitigate zero-day attacks.

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.

I have been working in my current field for almost seven years.

In terms of scalability, the solution performs well overall. It is capable of handling a large number of endpoints without significant performance issues. However, as the environment grows, the complexity of managing policies, agent communication, and server load also increases. With on-premises deployments in particular, scaling requires careful planning of resources, database capacity, and infrastructure components.

While the solution is scalable, simplifying the architecture and improving the responsiveness of the management console would make it even more efficient for large enterprises.

While the solution is scalable, simplifying the architecture and improving the responsiveness of the management console would make it even more efficient for large enterprises.

Customer support for Trellix Endpoint Security Platform responds quickly, but if there are unresolved issues, they escalate it, which can sometimes be difficult.

I previously used CrowdStrike, Defender, Trend Micro, and Symantec, and I chose Trend Micro because it had the option to handle the console easily.

Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is deployed in a hybrid and on-premises setup; however, we are facing many issues on-premises.

We implemented the solution through a vendor team. Their level of expertise was good, and they handled the deployment efficiently. However, in some cases, deeper troubleshooting required escalation to senior engineers, which slightly impacted the overall experience. Overall, I would rate their expertise as above average.

I have seen a return on investment; I can say that we have saved money and required fewer employees because of the complicated architecture.

My experience with the pricing, setup costs, and licensing has been positive. Compared to other tools, the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform offers lower overall costs.

One of the strongest advantages of Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is its cost-effectiveness.

I have evaluated other options based on price and the mechanisms used by Trellix Endpoint Security Platform.

If you are looking for a cost-effective solution, the Trellix Endpoint Security Platform is a good option, and it also offers support for legacy servers.

My company has a business relationship with Trellix Endpoint Security Platform as a partner.

Overall, I would rate this product seven out of ten.

Our biggest advantage is the compatibility with a variety of laptops. The compatibility with old laptops and new laptops is the most significant advantage.

We are not using the response automation functionality because we're only using it for encryption and for DLP, so there is no response automation we are utilizing.

We have to maintain it because when new versions of Windows are released, we must test the compatibility and functionality.

They have fixed the previous issues.

It has more to do with enhancements of features and functionality. There's nothing much which has come out, and it's been a product that we are running for so long with not many support cases that open up for us.

I would rate Trellix Endpoint Security overall as six and a half out of ten, closer to seven rather than six points.

Our primary use case for Trellix Endpoint Security is to protect our customers' endpoints and servers from known malware and ransomware. We are also partners reselling Trellix solutions.

Trellix Endpoint Security has impacted our organization by being a reasonable choice for on-premise solutions, especially for customers in the banking sector requiring compliance.

The most valuable features of Trellix Endpoint Security include its protection capabilities such as DNS and endpoint security, DNS threat prevention, as well as advanced threat prevention. If customers require a hybrid approach, it is available only in Trellix and not in other latest antivirus solutions.

What needs improvement in Trellix Endpoint Security is the reduction of resource consumption by the scanning feature. There should be daily signature updates for protection.

Additionally, scalability should be improved as it presents challenges such as needing downtime.

I have been using the solution for the last two to three years.

I would rate the stability of the solution as a seven out of ten, indicating moderate satisfaction.

I would rate the scalability of the solution as a six out of ten, indicating some challenges due to downtime requirements.

Technical support is rated seven out of ten. The response time is a notable issue.

The initial setup of Trellix Endpoint Security is somewhat complex compared to other newer antivirus solutions such as ProStriq and TrendMicro, and I would rate it a five out of ten.

The license costs are very reasonable, around 1,000 to 1,200 rupees per year.

For new users considering Trellix Endpoint Security, it is advisable as it offers traditional antivirus with both on-prem and SaaS-based solutions, compliant with regulatory standards.

I'm working on a project for the Hong Kong library system under the Hong Kong government. They provide workstations in the library for citizens to access the Internet. The ENS needs to be installed on all the PCs in the library. Another part involves the CSWA for the server farm. They are upgrading the entire library system, including the rental system, book search, eBooks, multimedia, and other services. The CSWA modules are primarily for the backend servers, including Linux and Windows.

Detection and response functionality meet our requirements, but the support is poor.

HIPS protects server files from being modified or deleted by unauthorized users. It's primarily deployed in the web tier.

It is a bit technical. The user interface has some significant limitations, mainly when using HIPS on the server side, to protect files from being changed or deleted by hackers, users, or administrators. The UI only allows for the inclusion of files using wildcards.

For example, it can protect an entire directory or a subdirectory, but it doesn't let you select specific files within a directory.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) as an implementor for two years.

We haven't had any system crashes or problems in most cases. SolidCore is not compatible with some kernels, which is causing problems. Endpoint, HIPS, and anti-theft are working fine so far.

I rate the solution’s stability as seven out of ten.

We use one ePO server to manage around four thousand endpoints, including servers. This single server effectively handles this load.

It is suitable for medium and large enterprises.

I rate the solution’s scalability as seven out of ten.

Support is poor. A module called Solidcore needs to match with the OS kernel in one area. The support for this module has been slow because it doesn't match the latest OS. As a result, we haven't been able to upgrade our OS because McAfee does not support the latest version. We've also encountered issues where the product can't be upgraded or installed successfully. We're managing over 300 servers and 3,000 workstations. Upgrading has been a nightmare with this setup.

It provides a slow response. Sometimes, getting feedback takes a few days, and that is also not to the point.

The initial setup is easy and straightforward. Determining specific modules and functions often involves a lot of trial and error. Deployment takes only a couple of days.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven 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.

Sometimes, one might face issues with the scalability of the product. The aforementioned area can be considered for improvement.

The initial setup is simple.

Ten people are required for maintenance.

You should monitor how efficiently the solution functions, how it will impact your system, and how many files will be processed. The more files your system has, the more security time is needed to scan them daily. Due to this, your system may become slower. Trelix ensures the system does not slow down even when Trelix runs in the background.

Overall, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

We use the product to provide system security for shared data on the network.

The platform’s most valuable features are ease of use, integration, and deployment.

The platform is stable.

The platform is scalable. A minimum of five licenses are required for ten executives.

Our IT team requires deployment assistance from the product’s technical support team.

The initial setup process is easy if you have the required technical skills. It takes 30 minutes to complete. A team of around 20 technicians is involved in the deployment.

We implement the product with the help of our technical staff.

We pay for the product’s license. They should reduce the cost or make it free, open-source software.

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.

We just run it in the background and potentially scan any wireless or malicious file. It must be the same setup.

Maybe the performance could be better. I noticed that it slows down a bit when I start it up in the morning.

We have had this solution for over three years now. It's enterprise security. We use the latest version.

It's stable. It's just that I don't have to use it very often. I can go weeks without having to deal with any issues. If something does pop up, it's usually pretty easy to fix. I just let the people who know what they're doing handle it.

It's scalable enough for our needs. I don't see any problems right now. There are about 55 users in two branches of our company.

We haven't needed to use tech support. We are an IT company, so we usually take care of our own devices.

The setup is not that complex. It takes five to ten minutes to set up. It's mostly this is our old devices.

It's a self-deployable solution, so we don't need any technical staff for deployment.

We do need to pay for a license.

Overall, I would rate the solution a six out of ten.

Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) is useful as an endpoint security software.

The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard.

The dashboard provided by the solution needs to be improved. The customization capabilities of the solution are an area where it lacks, so it would be great if our company could customize the solution to meet the demands of our customers.

In the future, I would like technical support for the solution and its UI to be more efficient.

I have been using Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) for two years. I usually deal with a product's latest version. My company has a partnership with Trellix.

Stability-wise, I rate the solution an eight out of ten. The solution is mostly stable, but sometimes, there is a need to do some troubleshooting.

Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a seven out of ten.

I rate the technical support an eight out of ten.

Currently, I work with CrowdStrike since my company has a partnership with it. CrowdStrike is better than Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS). CrowdStrike offers functionalities like machine learning and DLP.

I have used the solution on the cloud and on-premises. Currently, the solution is deployed on the cloud services offered by Trellix, which I feel is a public cloud.

I don't think there are any extra expenses besides its licensing costs.

Maintenance of the solution is required, including some troubleshooting parts managed by five to six engineers in our company.

I recommend the solution to those planning to use it.

Not all solutions in the market are good, though I found Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) to be a good product.

I rate the overall solution a seven out of ten.
