We do have a technical arm. It's an independent professional service provider. It's a company itself. However, it's under the umbrella of the main one, which is acting as the technical arm of the main company. It typically handles the initial setup. 

We implemented the solution in-house for our POC environment. 

The solution was implemented by a local vendor partner.

I have a team which was responsible for the installation. As mentioned, I am currently looking for another solution, one which would allow installation to also be handled remotely from the central management portal dashboard or to have the .exe file installed in each endpoint.

We have our own team, comprised of three to four support HR, who take care of installation, daily troubleshooting, support and all necessary changes. As such, we forward to receive remote support for all our users.

The solution's deployment on the cloud is very fast because we give the requirement and get the solution. On-premises, the basic initial setup of the server takes about half an hour or one hour.

We have a vendor that helps us with the initial setup.

For deployment, I worked with one external consultant.

Initially, when I came to the company, I didn't really have a background or any experience managing McAfee. I came from more of a Symantec background but I gained some knowledge from one of our external consultants who really had a deep understanding of McAfee products and their deployment. We had some training sessions and then I could manage the McAfee forum on my own. After a week's worth of training, I could manage McAfee on my own.

We can do the implementation of the solution. Customers can do it by themself or in a corporate environment it can be pushed from the central server to each individual computer.

The maintenance of the solution is done by an outside vendor.

We handled implementation in-house because when we got the licensing, we also got training modules from Trellix. Trellix has KB articles, which are pretty much straightforward and really helped quite a bit. I'd say it took about four hours to deploy from the time we started with a clean machine to the time that we started pulling updates and deploying to client machines.

On a scale of one to five, I'd give the setup a four, because the product pretty much does what it says it does, but it's not perfect. If you're an IT person, you'll be able to deploy it, and sending the Agent file to clients is pretty much a no-brainer.

The maintenance bit is okay as well. There's not a high amount of maintenance because you can automate many activities. You just need to make sure that your server is able to pick up the updates that are necessary, and make sure the databases are running okay. It's nothing new if you're in the IT environment, just making sure everything is running properly. I've never landed on an update that broke the application.

I recommend product deployment assistance from a consultant, distributor, or reseller.

The product can be deployed in-house. The deployment process is quite easy and fast.

It took me two months to implement Trellix Endpoint Security because of our company's hardware limitations.

My implementation strategy for Trellix Endpoint Security was to build a demonstration based on what the company would like me to do. So I built a SIEM infrastructure and got the images of the different tools first. Then from there, I tried to connect the different devices before I connected the data sources.

We implement this solution for our customers. If you are an engineer, and you have the experience, you can do it. If someone doesn't have experience with the OS, with Windows, or with the product, you might need specialized engineers.

We deployed the solution ourselves and continue to deploy any ancillary modules on our own as well. We don't need the outside assistance of consultants or integrators. We have a team that manages these items in house.

Three engineers can deploy the tool in three to four hours. The solution needs maintenance.

We implemented it with the help of a McAfee vendor team.

The implementation is kind of done in incremental steps because it is a cloud solution. It is just being pushed from the system to the central location. The agent runs on every laptop and we either manually click it when it issues a notice that it is time to scan the device, or it triggers by itself. It automatically runs these processes without intervention.  

Experts

Deployment can be handled on one's own. Most deployments are the same. When deploying in the cloud, there is only a need to click several times on the link that is sent. There's nothing to it. Anybody can actually do the installation. It's very straightforward.

We are distributors although, as an engineer, I handle everything, including integration. 

It was implemented by our in-house team and then deployed using the McAfee ePolicy server that's designated for McAfee deployments only.

We implemented this through our in-house team and used the vendor for support in any technical issues we might encounter.

I am a consultant.

My in-house team is responsible for deployment and maintenance. There are three people in our support team.

Our environment was a mix. I prefer to do it with a vendor and Intel Support.

We used a partner integrator. We maintain it on our own. 

Implementation was done through the vendor. My advice is to ensure all the requirements that are provided prior to implementation to avoid any delays.

We implemented the solution on our own.

When selecting a vendor, we want to make sure there is a good presence in our region, and competent partners that can give support of the solution.

The initial implementation was done by an in-house team comprised of highly-skilled McAfee experts since we are an Infosec company specializing in various vendor products. An in-house team can set it up, provided they are awarded adequate training.

I was the person that implemented the product.

Our in-house team is responsible for the deployment, which requires one engineer on-site. We also provide support to our clients.

We implemented it with the help of the vendor in the beginning. Later, we developed our own in-house talent to support and manage the product.

We are using local distribution channels of Intel Security.

We did the implementation of the solution ourselves. We have a team of two that does the deployment and implementation.

We used a partner to assist us with the implementation. It was our reseller, and they are good.

We implemented it in-house. I would suggest building a small lab to get familiar with the process before working on a live environment.

We use two vendors for the implementation and maintenance of the solution.

We implemented it via a vendor team.

When we implemented three years back we used a system integrator, our partners, for doing the installation.

We have 1700+ systems so we needed to be setup with this solution.

We used a reseller for the implementation. 

We did not use a vendor or an integrator, we have our own team.
