We performed a comparison between Darktrace and Trellix Endpoint Security (ENS) based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, Cisco, TitanHQ and others in Email Security."The most valuable feature is protection against malicious links, fishing, and impersonation. You can train people to be aware of these threats, but they're not always careful. When they're using their phones between meetings, they click on a link, and it's game over."
"Safe attachments, safe links, policies, and the ability to protect from zero-day threats are the most valuable features."
"The product is not resource-intensive."
"The good part is that you don't have to configure it, which is very convenient."
"The solution is very easy to use. All you have to do is to assign the license to the end-user and it's done. The customer will only have the feature activated, and the solution will monitor the emails to determine if they are a threat or not."
"Some of the valuable features on the email side are anti-phishing, anti-malware, and Safe Links."
"The deployment capability is a great feature."
"It also gives the vulnerability status according to the versions you have selected. Let's say you have Google Chrome. It mentions the versions it has, and it updates. Within two hours of an update, it is reflected in the dashboard. That's really nice to have."
"The most valuable feature of Darktrace is the AI that detects abnormal network activity."
"The main valuable feature is that we don't need a lot of analysts. With few analysts, we have all the network monitored, 24/7."
"I like the dashboards, which are cool. They are more user-friendly, in my experience. Its learning capabilities are really good."
"The models, triggers, and alerts are customizable."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is that it does not require human intervention to eliminate a threat."
"It is a stable solution without downtime."
"The Dynamic Threat Dashboard is very nice, as it lists all of your threats and rates them, and then you can choose whether to investigate further."
"It is autonomous. So, it learns. It uses algorithms and AI to learn the common behavioral patterns on the network, and it is able to identify threats based on abnormal patterns."
"The exploit guard and malware protection features are very useful. The logon tracker feature is also very useful. They have also given new modules such as logout backup, process backup. We ordered these modules from the FireEye market place, and we have installed these modules. We are currently exploring these features."
"It is very valuable in finding out unknown malware."
"It is easy to use, flexible, and stable. Because it is a cloud-based solution and it integrates all endpoints of the cloud, we can do an IOC-based search. It can search the entire enterprise and tell us the endpoints that are possibly compromised."
"The most valuable feature of this solution is its simplicity."
"MVISION Endpoint is so much easier and so much simpler for the lay security personnel to handle."
"The performance is good."
"We have a cloud-based instance, so we can deploy all our configurations through the cloud. That's the beauty of FireEye."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its dashboard."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 must improve the overall management style, including the GUI. It also needs to change the filters so that it is easy to whitelist and blacklist data."
"Microsoft should provide more documentation for users so they can self-educate. I would like to see more documentation for advanced security features."
"The only thing they should improve is the licensing model. They should stop changing it. A year ago, the five features I mentioned were included in one product. Now, three of them are bundled into one product, and you have to pay extra for the other two. I don't mind paying extra, but I don't want them to change it every year or every six months. I need to know what I'm looking at and not worry about it next year."
"Microsoft Defender for Office 365 should be more proactive."
"There's room for improvement regarding the time frame for retrieving emails."
"The company should focus on adding threats that the solution is currently unable to detect."
"The phishing and spam filters could use some improvement."
"This product's effectiveness could be improved, in terms of detecting unwanted spam or even malware between the emails, compared to other products."
"Getting logs from different sources can be a challenge."
"The cost is a bit on the higher side."
"It could build in integrations for some complementary products, but it has an assistant plugin so this is not really a big deal."
"The user interface and the configuration are a bit complex and should be improved or simplified."
"I would like to see a feature where the tool ingests information from an anti-malware product that is present at the endpoint."
"I believe their network monitoring device licensing module could use some improvement."
"This product needs more in terms of prevention. The detection capabilities work well but once a threat has been detected, Darktrace should work to prevent it from doing anything malicious."
"One thing I would like is for Darktrace to flag SMB traffic more accurately. Currently, it only flags that SMB traffic has occurred, but it doesn't specify which file was being transferred. This makes it difficult to investigate incidents involving SMB traffic, as we don't have concrete evidence of what was being sent."
"There should be better integration between the ePolicy Orchestrator and FireEye console. The integration of both consoles should be better."
"It has very good integrations. However, its integration with Palo Alto was not good, and they seem to be working on it at the backend. It is not very resource-hungry, but it can be even better in terms of resource utilization. It could be improved in terms of efficiency, memory sizing, and disk consumption by agents."
"Upgrading to new versions isn't easy and it can take a long time. Also, other solutions' tamper protection features are better than FireEye's. Clients should have access to our local information, but they shouldn't change settings on the system itself."
"Performance is a problematic area in the solution needing improvement."
"The product needs to reduce the usage of RAM and CPU."
"The complexity of advanced modules can be improved."
"The product is consolidating its portfolio into one product. It is difficult at the moment."
"I hope the solution can be used in cloud systems going forward."
