"Currently we have 800-plus nodes connected with this solution, without any issues. The solution is scalable."
"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 most valuable feature is NetFlow threat protection."
"Technical support is very responsive. You just have to open a ticket. They respond in a timely manner. Their response is good. I'm satisfied."
"The great advantage in using this product is it creates multiple services."
"All of the solution's features are quite valuable for us. We especially like the threat protection it provides."
"The Application Control code and the easy integration are valuable features."
"Support is very helpful and responsive."
"The sandbox feature of FireEye Network Security is very good. The operating system itself has many features and it supports our design."
"The features that I find most valuable are the MIR (Mandiant Incident Response) for checks on our inbound security."
"The most valuable feature is MVX, which tests all of the files that have been received in an email."
"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 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."
"The product has helped improve our organization by being easy to use and integrate. This saves time, trouble and money."
"An improvement could be made on the reporting because then it would be easier to collect information and submit it for compliance."
"There are some features that would add value to this product. One of them would be a graphical presentation of threats that the system has encountered."
"It also needs network-based threat protection for shared folders and files."
"There are limits with respect to blocking files by hash value or blocking IP addresses, and these limits should be removed."
"The support has dropped down to a five out of ten."
"Symantec appliances need improvement. The whole appliance environment is a robust system and it needs a massive amount of storage space. If you have to increase or speed up the background storage it's a pretty complicated process. The scalability and sizing is critical, and if you do it wrong you run into issues pretty quickly."
"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 should be able to collect information if the agent is disabled."
"It is very expensive, the price could be better."
"The problem with FireEye is that they don't allow VM or sandbox customization. The user doesn't have control of the VMs that are inside the box. It comes from the vendor as-is. Some users like to have control of it. Like what type of Windows and what type of applications and they have zero control over this."
"If you want to search the hashes in the environment, you need to put in IOCs one by one, making it a very hectic job."
"Cybersecurity posture has room for improvement."
"The initial setup was complex because of the nature of our environment. When it comes to the type of applications and functions which we were looking at in terms of identifying malicious threats, there would be some level of complexity, if we were doing it right."
"Technical support could be improved."
"Technical packaging could be improved."
"Stability issues manifested in terms of throughput maximization."
