We performed a comparison between CylancePROTECT 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."he solution is an anti-malware product that integrates well with other vendor products such as firewalls, SIEM, etc. It captures threat intelligence and gives you better visibility. The product also has sandboxing features."
"The main thing is that I feel safe. Because the processes that have been used to get a handle on the attackers are much better than other competitors"
"This is stable and scalable."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
"The stability is very good."
"Additionally, when it comes to EDR, there are more tools available to assist with client work."
"Fortinet FortiEDR's firewalling, rule creation, monitoring, and inspection profiles are great."
"The product detects and blocks threats and is more proactive than firewalls."
"On the management side, we liked the way it displays things."
"A user can continue to add endpoints and the solution will continue to perform well."
"Specifically for a Windows domain environment, the product can be customized and pushed via GPO or SCCM without issue."
"The most valuable features of CylancePROTECT are its powerful machine-learning capabilities and predictive intelligence."
"Endpoints are protected in real-time without the need of a centralized server."
"It is extremely simple to manage and deploy."
"The solution is easy to deploy."
"The solution is pretty easy to scale."
"Threat prevention is valuable because most clients use other solutions like antivirus as part of web protection. I don't find that kind of solution useful."
"The DLP and user interface are the most valuable feature."
"This is a good solution for antivirus and malware protection."
"The solution is stable."
"A big advantage of McAfee Endpoint Security is the ability to manage very big environments. We are supporting environments with 200,000 to 300,000 endpoints. The ability to manage with one single console is very important for us. McAfee has phenomenally improved in terms of detection. It provides real-time detection and response with the error, Real Protect, and reputations. It is not only based on signatures but also on behavior analytics, artificial intelligence, or machine learning. We have environments that never had issues with ransomware in the last 20 years. McAfee has a very good performance in this field."
"The most valuable feature is ease of use."
"Anyone can use it, the protection is good, and they have all of the features."
"I have found many of the features to be useful."
"The amount of usage, the number of details we get, or the number of options that can be tweaked is limited in comparison to that with other EDR solutions"
"The support needs improvement."
"Detections could be improved."
"Once, we had an event that was locked and blocked, but information about it came to us two or three days later."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"We've encountered challenges during API deployment, occasionally resulting in unstable environments."
"The dashboard isn't easy to access and manage."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"They could improve on the false positives, reporting and whitelisting features."
"CylancePROTECT could be improved in its technical support and communication."
"The process of whitelisting a script that you want to be able to run can be a little bit difficult, or awkward."
"Additionally, their channel management has been lacking, with a notable disregard for small and medium-sized businesses, focusing primarily on large enterprises and very large MSPs."
"The product must make the interface a little more user-friendly."
"The product does not do a lot of reporting on what it is taking care of. Enhanced reporting would be a welcome improvement."
"The security scripting needs improvement. It needs deeper security for scripting."
"The company that sells us the licenses sometimes doesn't know how to do certain things."
"I've encountered minor challenges related to encryption."
"There are two main areas that require improvement. One is the size of the packages. Although I'll admit manageability is good, if I want to deploy, let's say just the antivirus or just the firewall, each of those package sizes are quite large. They are sometimes as big as 200MB or 250MB. When I have operations in remote areas where connectivity is always poor, it's difficult. To deploy such a package in a remote location over the internet or something like that is always challenging."
"They can make it free, but that's not going to happen."
"Trellix lacked email protection when it was a McAfee product. They added this feature during the merger with FireEye, but it hasn't been fully integrated. The core features will be integrated into the next release. FireEye has several solutions for EDR and sandboxing."
"McAfee GW Security and McAfee Child Safety need some improvement as they are relatively new."
"It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment."
"With McAfee, if there is a zero-day vulnerability, you have to download the patch for it from the McAfee website, then apply it to your endpoint."
"We know that McAfee isn't the best antivirus and it can't protect us 100%, although we are okay with the level of protection that it gives us."
