Excellent for endpoint security, providing great protection
Pros and Cons
  • "The solution works well for endpoint security."
  • "Lacks cloud security integrated with the antivirus."

What is our primary use case?

Our primary use case is to protect all the computers in the company; the websites, files and emails our employees use. I'm responsible for IT and we are customers of McAfee. 

What is most valuable?

In general, the solution provides good protection, it works well for endpoint security. 

What needs improvement?

We're currently looking to switch to a solution that offers cloud security because we want that integrated with the antivirus. We're looking for something that's more sophisticated and integrated.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been using this solution for over six years.

We haven't had any issues with stability.

The initial setup is easy, you just download the software program and install. It can be done very quickly. 

What other advice do I have?

This is a great tool but now that people are working from home we're looking for something better because what we have now just protects the endpoint and we'd like to have better email and cloud security. 

The solution no longer meets our needs but it's a very good product and I rate it a nine out of 10.

An advanced security solution that can be fully automated
Pros and Cons
  • "I like that it's all automated"
  • "The process of enabling drive encryption can be improved."

What is our primary use case?

We use it to protect our PCs and our servers. We have DLP endpoints, and we have drive encryption and endpoint security. We also use it for endpoint security on our laptops, and they do have these running on the servers.

What is most valuable?

I like that it's all automated. It's automatically configured and updated from a central server. The patches get updated automatically, and it provides good security against malware and ransomware. It also encrypts our drives, and there's a lot of security.

Another good feature is that you can always get it to reset by calling a remote admin for help. For example, if you've forgotten your password, you can unlock it from your system boot up, and you can get assistance from the admin.

What needs improvement?

The process of enabling drive encryption can be improved. It takes a long time to enable drive encryption. For some reason, we have to keep monitoring it. It takes a few hours to update the policies, which finally encrypts the drive. It's a very slow process, and we have to sit there and watch what goes on.

Sometimes I also see that there isn't any reporting back to the central team that someone's system isn't up to date. 

For how long have I used the solution?

We''ve been using McAfee MOVE AntiVirus for close to ten years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is a stable product.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is a scalable product. We have it deployed across 100,000 people, and it's a huge deployment.

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

I think before this, they may have used something else like Trend Micro. Then they moved to McAfee, and from McAfee, they may shift to some other good product. I have used a computer spreadsheets antivirus, e-antivirus before.

How was the initial setup?

It's pushed remotely, and it's like a remotely deployed solution. It barely takes two to five minutes to set up and deploy. There's a big team that manages the deployment and maintenance as part of the overall security and corporate security.

What other advice do I have?

I would recommend this product to potential users if it's a corporate office. It's a great tool for a corporate environment.

On a scale from one to ten, I would give McAfee MOVE AntiVirus an eight.

Integration with other modules allows for expansion, but the Advanced Threat Protection needs improvement
Pros and Cons
  • "The most valuable features are the integration with different modules like the DLP."
  • "The advanced threat protection is not as good as our competitors."

What is our primary use case?

The primary use case of this solution is to distribute endpoints to our clients for their networks.

What is most valuable?

The most valuable features are the integration with different modules like the DLP.

It's a complete endpoint and you can extend the endpoint using additional modules. This is at times useful for customers with a lot of different data that they don't want to lose, so they integrate it with a DLP module to check the USB drivers and USB mass storage as an example.

What needs improvement?

The advanced threat protection is not as good as the competitors.

They are not as fast as the other competitors in detecting new threats. They can be anywhere from half a day to a day behind the other solutions before detecting the threat.

The admin interface is very old. 

In the next release, they could refresh the GUI. It would be appreciated.

For how long have I used the solution?

I have been using this solution for two years.

What do I think about the stability of the solution?

This solution is stable.

It works with no problem at all.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

At present, we have not scaled this solution as our clients are not large enough with only two hundred and fifty clients.

How are customer service and technical support?

The technical support is not the best on the market, but it's not bad.

It can be difficult to speak to them. The last time that we had an issue they responded in a couple of hours and we received the file the next business day. It could have been faster.

At the present time, they are working well.

Which other solutions did I evaluate?

We did not evaluate other solutions.

What other advice do I have?

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.
