Find out what your peers are saying about Microsoft, McAfee, Sophos and others in Endpoint Encryption."Reporting and encryption are its most valuable features."
"With McAfee Complete Data Protection, you can managed all your security solutions from one single server and one interface. This might be the most powerful advantage of McAfee's solution."
"Complete Data Protection lets us define roles in our data products. It helps us identify something suspicious on the client's device."
"In the configuration, you can restrict a user from accessing a removable drive."
"I have found the USB part most valuable."
"McAfee Complete Data Protection provides stability and is a good product."
"It is capable of acting as Web control, Device Control, or Data Control."
"The most important feature of McAfee Complete Data Protection to my customers is the ePO or the management console. It's easy to use and it's scalable. You can also generate the reports you want on the console. It's a mature management console. The features that McAfee Complete Data Protection has, for example, anti-spam features and other features can also be found on other solutions, but the most unique feature you can find in the solution is the ePO itself, the management console."
"While it helps mitigate unauthorized data access by enhancing file and system protection through encryption, the tool is really enhanced with the combination of other Microsoft Security and Compliance features like data labeling."
"The tool is stable."
"The ease of use is the most valuable feature. The ability to import data to build your frontend on top of the data is very simple and very useable."
"It is easy to implement and has AD integration."
"As a Microsoft shop, we find this product easy to use."
"It's my understanding that the initial setup is straightforward."
"It is free and native to the OS. We don't have to worry about upgrades or maintaining the product. You encrypt the disk, and you save the recovery key. That's it. The person puts their password in, and after that, it is up to them. If they forget their password, they have to bring it in to get it unlocked."
"The platform provides good performance."
"The solution is reliable and stable. You can edit it and it's flexible."
"The product must improve endpoint encryption."
"The product consumes too much RAM and CPU for its processing and this can lead to resource issues on PCs."
"Though there may be some ransomware detection modules now in McAfee Complete Data Protection, it's a field that McAfee should focus on, particularly having integration with some EDR or other add-ons. This is so McAfee Complete Data Protection would have more accuracy in detecting new ransomware in the market. What I'd like to see in the next release of the solution is for its pricing to be more cost-effective because some competitors have cheaper pricing, so McAfee Complete Data Protection can't compete. Sometimes, some new vendors offer other solutions rather than McAfee Complete Data Protection, to win customers over, and this is a loss for McAfee."
"There are some features that do not work with Mac."
"They could be better in terms of Complete Data Protection."
"Initial setup was complex."
"We encountered several problems with the solution's stability."
"The solution needs to reduce the number of false positives. There are too many of them."
"There are options which could be implemented to make it a little more like PGP Whole Disk Encryption."
"The visualization could be better."
"User profiles can be improved so that people can create their own passwords. It has one password per machine, which is a problem. We would prefer each user to have his or her own boot password. Each user can have a username and password or biometrics, such as fingerprints and iris scanner, integrated into the boot process, but I really can't see that coming anytime soon, if ever."
"The primary aspect for improvement lies in expanding our developer base, which would accelerate the development process and bring these enhancements to fruition"
"It needs a management console."
"The only thing that could be slightly improved is the occasional stability issue."
"The solution should offer encryption for other items such as shared folders, removable media, etc."
"It is not good for cross-compatibility, so our Mac users are not able to use it."
"The solution really needs to improve the data pile. With the pile, if we could also do a column-level encryption or something like third-level encryptions that would be great. It would be a slight variation of same product."
