We performed a comparison between Cisco Secure Endpoint and Trellix Endpoint Security based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Endpoint Protection Platform (EPP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Fortinet has helped free up around 20 percent of our staff's time to help us out."
"It notifies us if there's any suspicious file on any PC. If any execution or similar kind of thing is happening, it just alerts us. It doesn't only alert. It also blocks the execution until we allow it. We check whether the execution is legitimate or not, and then approve it or keep it blocked. This gives us a little bit of control over this mechanism. Fortinet FortiEDR is also very straightforward and easy to maintain."
"We have FortiEDR installed on all our systems. This protects them from any threats."
"The solution was relatively easy to deploy."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"It is stable and scalable."
"Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"The ease of deployment and configuration is valuable. It's very easy compared to other vendors like Sophos. Sophos' configuration is complex. Fortinet is a lot easier to understand. You don't need a lot of admin knowledge to do the configuration."
"I am really satisfied with the technical support."
"The most valuable feature is signature-based malware detection."
"The stability of the solution is perfect. I believe it's the most stable solution on the market right now."
"Another of my favorite features is called the Device Trajectory, where it shows everything that's going on, on a computer. It shows the point in time when a virus is downloaded, so you can see if the user was surfing the internet or had a program open. It shows every running process and file access on the computer and saves it like a snapshot when it detects something malicious. It also has a File Trajectory, so you can even see if that file has been found on any of your other computers that have AMP."
"Its most valuable features are its scalability and advanced threat protection for customers."
"The product itself is pretty reliable. The security features that it has make it reliable."
"It is extensive in terms of providing visibility and insights into threats. It allows for research into a threat, and you can chart your progress on how you're resolving it."
"The simplicity of use is its most valuable feature. You can very clearly see things."
"The solution is stable."
"The initial setup is straightforward, not complex."
"The most valuable feature of Trellix Endpoint Security is containment, which takes less than a minute."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"McAfee Complete Endpoint Protection is stable. We don't have any bugs being reported."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"It has been protecting us for many years, and we hope it will continue to do so for many years to come."
"We receive good protection with this solution."
"I haven't seen the use of AI in the solution."
"We'd like to see more one-to-one product presentations for the distribution channels."
"The solution should address emerging threats like SQL injection."
"We find the solution to be a bit expensive."
"The EDR console should have more extensive reporting. You shouldn't need to purchase FortiAnalyzer. It should be included in the EDR part. The security adviser cloud platform could be improved with more options for exclusive or intensive rules for devices."
"Making the portal mobile friendly would be helpful when I am out of office."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"Cisco is good in terms of threat intelligence plus machine learning-based solutions, but we feel Cisco is lagging behind in using artificial intelligence in its systems."
"They could improve the main dashboard to more clearly show me the things that I want to see. When I open the dashboard right now, I see a million things and they are not always the things that I need."
"It is an expensive solution."
"The initial setup of Cisco Secure Endpoint is complex."
"We had a lot of noise at the beginning, and we had to turn it down based on exclusions, application whitelisting, and excluding unknown benign applications. Cisco should understand the need for continuous updates on the custom Cisco exclusions and the custom applications that come out-of-the-box with the AMP for Endpoints."
"I would recommend that the solution offer more availability in terms of the product portfolio and integration with third-party products."
"The pricing policy could be more competitive, similar to Cisco's offerings."
"I would like to see integration with Cisco Analytics."
"The product is not easy to use."
"Sometimes, while installing the ePO, we were getting so many errors and I don't know why it happened."
"The VirusScan needs to improve in order to detect ransomware and other advanced threats."
"Technical support from the vendor is very bad."
"We experienced some bad behavior when we first installed the product. The system also starts slowly in some instances. If for some reason this solution crashes, we could lose all our data."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"One of the drawbacks is that it is not 100% secure."
"There are certain shortcomings in the features concerning DLP in Trellix, where certain additions must be made in the future."
