We performed a comparison between Sophos EPP Suite 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."Forensics is a valuable feature of Fortinet FortiEDR."
"Fortinet is very user-friendly for customers."
"Ability to get forensics details and also memory exfiltration."
"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."
"It is a scalable solution...The initial setup of Fortinet FortiEDR was straightforward."
"The setup is pretty simple."
"It's easy to deploy."
"Our experience with Sophos has been notable; it's database-driven and efficiently integrates to inspect and protect us against biases, malware, and attacks."
"With Sophos, the scanning of viruses and scanning of the disk is done silently in the background."
"It is stable."
"Great cloud management."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to centrally manage the total security environment, including the firewall."
"Sophos EPP Suite stands out with its user-friendly dashboard and strong web filtering features for enhanced online security."
"So easy to deploy and use that you really don't even need their technical support."
"The product is fairly reliable."
"We can manage everything from the central console and it is very easy."
"I think the costing is fine compared to other products. Cost-wise you definitely get value for your money."
"The DLP and user interface are the most valuable feature."
"There is a new feature where you can set thresholds for all the CPU consumption allowing for no consumption on the servers when the scans happen. It is a separate plugin or addon, and if we have it on all the virtual machines it automatically checks the resources, and based on that, it will schedule the scans. That is something that I have not seen in other antivirus solutions, such as Symantec."
"McAfee EndPoint Security has a lot of good features that work well if they are implemented properly."
"Dynamic Application Containment."
"This product has the capability to check a wide range of vulnerabilities and devices."
"There's room for improvement in the quick response time and technical support for integration issues, especially when dealing with multiple vendors."
"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."
"ZTNA can improve latency."
"The SIEM could be improved."
"The support needs improvement."
"To improve Fortinet, we need to see more features and technology areas at the endpoint level introduced."
"We've had a lot of false positives; things incorrectly flagged that require manual configuration to allow. Even worse, after we allow a legitimate program, it sometimes gets flagged again after an update. This has caused a lot of extra work for my team."
"Cannot be used on mobile devices with a secure connection."
"There could be enhancements made to the DLP."
"Technical support needs to be improved."
"From our enrollment perspective, I would say maybe it could be a little lighter in terms of agent usage so that there is less computer utilization."
"In my country, having an on-premises deployment model is preferred. In this part of the world, on-premises is still the way many companies want to go. Therefore, they should supply some sort of option that allows for that reality."
"The solution lacks technical support."
"The solution could improve on the resource management, it is a bit heavy on the resources."
"The solution isn't quite accurate enough. It provides a lot of false positives."
"We have to use additional third-party solutions to fill the gaps in the capabilities of Sophos EPP Suite, such as using a mobility scanner. It would be helpful to add this feature."
"I would like to have the ability to have more control over the deployment in the next release. If you have this console in the cloud, you cannot make pilot groups for deploying the agents. We only have the current group. So, as soon as you inject the software, it will go directly into production, which doesn't work for us. We need to build up pilot groups slowly. We already requested to have this feature on the cloud, and we are still waiting."
"Trying to move away from the signature model for antivirus and malware blocking is something that would be nice. Instead of having to update every day, which is signature-based, moving to more of a kernel or architecture-based model would probably be beneficial."
"The solution's documentation is not streamlined and is in bits and pieces, which should be in a single format."
"The solution consumes a lot of end user memory and CPU. Trellix doesn't really focus much on the anti-malware side."
"We have had some of our clients not happy with McAfee Endpoint Security because it blocks some of the applications they are trying to use. They should make it easier to unblock applications."
"It would be helpful if the controlling of connections coming to the PC could be done from McAfee's side so that we can block those connections."
"There are certain shortcomings in the features concerning DLP in Trellix, where certain additions must be made in the future."
"We don't like the solution since it requires much memory consumption and consumes much CPU resources."
