We performed a comparison between Symantec Advanced Threat Protection and Trellix Network Detection and Response based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Advanced Threat Protection (ATP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Currently we have 800-plus nodes connected with this solution, without any issues. The solution is scalable."
"All of the solution's features are quite valuable for us. We especially like the threat protection it provides."
"What I like most about Symantec Advanced Threat Protection is its notification capability."
"The most valuable feature is Click-time URL protection."
"They manage to solve detection quite nicely. There is some rather elaborate detection compared to other providers."
"You don't have to buy a separate email security platform. You can enable that using their endpoint, and I like that. You don't have to have two agents running on the same box."
"The great advantage in using this product is it creates multiple services."
"It has certainly helped out our audit efforts because we each stay compliant in terms of various security standards."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"The product is very easy to configure."
"The server appliance is good."
"If we are receiving spam emails, or other types of malicious email coming from a particular email ID, then we are able to block them using this solution."
"Improved our systems and our customers' by providing better malware protection, defense against zero-day threats, and improved network security."
"The scalability has not been a problem. We have deployed the product in very high bandwidth networks. We have never had a problem with the FireEye product causing latency issues within our networks."
"The MVX Engine seems to be very capable against threats and the way it handles APTs is impressive."
"The most valuable feature is MVX, which tests all of the files that have been received in an email."
"An improvement could be made on the reporting because then it would be easier to collect information and submit it for compliance."
"The cloud platform needs to have improvement in terms of the user interface and the different capabilities it has available. It needs to match the other leading next-gen EDR products that are available in the market. That's the reason why we are stepping away from Symantec. Their cloud environment is just generally lacking in comparison to others."
"It should be able to collect information if the agent is disabled."
"The administration interface needs a lot of improvement. It should be UI based, and simple. They need to improve it. It's pretty much not that friendly compared to what we were using as Bitdefender before. It's okay but is improving, actually."
"Scalability could be better."
"The product's support services need improvement."
"The security features need to be improved."
"It's a strange situation where the infrastructure of the consumer or customer is behind some kind of firewall and they have always used some kind of customized proxy. In this situation, the ATP has a very tough time to pass the information to the cloud and back. To fix, it requires a more elaborate and complex configuration for that particular case."
"It is not a very secure product."
"It doesn't connect with the cloud, advanced machine learning is not there. A known threat can be coming into the network and we would want the cloud to look up the problem. I would also like to see them develop more file replication and machine learning."
"It would be a good idea if we could get an option to block based upon the content of an email, or the content of a file attachment."
"Technical support could be improved."
"Its documentation can be improved. The main problem that I see with FireEye is the documentation. We are an official distributor and partner of FireEye, and we have access to complete documentation about how to configure or implement this technology, but for customers, very limited documentation is available openly. This is the area in which FireEye should evolve. All documents should be easily available for everyone."
"It would be great if we could create granular reports based on the protocols, types of attacks, regions of attack, etc. Also we would like to easily be able to add exceptions to rules in cases of false positives."
"FireEye Network Security should have better integration with other vendors' firewalls or proxies, such as Palo Alto and Fortinet. Files that are being submitted should happen through the API or automatically."
"Cybersecurity posture has room for improvement."
