The product is very easy to be deployed to the endpoints. It works based on an agent that is installed initially and then it pulls all other modules that you need to be deployed. It send almost righ-away alerts about threats. The management dashboard is easy to understand and use.

McAfee Endpoint Security is currently being managed/administered by our cyber-security team and endpoint security team. Using McAfee Endpoint Security, we use it for its VirusScan, HIPS, and Disk Encryption features. It helps us identify threats that occur on the workstations or servers. It provides excellent visibility across the enterprise when it comes to threats, both internal and external.
Pros
It provides excellent visibility of threats so that we can quickly identify them.
With its EPO product, it centralizes all security products into one umbrella.
It brings all features into one single agent.
Cons
Because it is signature-based, its VirusScan product is not able to identify zero days.
It is not recommended for the more advanced malware out there.
Sometimes it can use a lot of resources on the workstation.
Likelihood to Recommend
I believe that Mcafee Endpoint Security is well suited for environments that have formal endpoint security or cyber-security department because more attention to go into the tuning of it. Environments that do NOT have those types of departments will be able to deploy the solution in their company but won't be able to devote the time to tune the product into something beneficial.

FireEye is the first line of defense against network threats from both external and WAN communication. Detecting threats in email and in transit across your network perimeter, Fireeye allows much more confidence and control at the frontline which any systems or security administrator can appreciate.
Pros
Deployment is fast and efficient with multiple architectural models.
Fireeye support has been great, quickly responding to issues and remaining very helpful.
The information afforded through NX, HX, and EX greatly improve our ability to triage and respond to threats of all sizes.
Cons
The central management solution is not as full featured as I would like.
Better visibility to individual appliance would greatly assist in administration.
Reporting on individual events can become cumbersome in certain situations.
Likelihood to Recommend
FireEye would make sense for a variety of situations. The ability to quickly identify large scale phishing and things like malware C2 callouts makes the difference between a quiet day at work or being the next headline on KrebsOnSecurity.com. I think businesses of all sizes could benefit from the various offerings of the FireEye portfolio.

Trellix was replaced by McAfee endpoint security and it's been really helpful to manager the security of the device under one umbrella.
The application provides logs and automatically blocks and suspicious attempt on the device,
We have installed Trillax on all the devices to manage the security and firewall aspects.
Pros
Logs of the devices are automatically available to download
Any expectations can be added without any issues by the admin
Easier to install and manage
Cons
None as of now
Likelihood to Recommend
The application is well suited to manage the security aspect and manage the firewall. The security aspect is that it blocks certain URLs which are pre defined as spam or mallacious.
