We performed a comparison between Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention and McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator based on real PeerSpot user reviews.
Find out in this report how the two Data Loss Prevention (DLP) solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."The solution’s content classification is the best."
"The Forcepoint tool is well developed. It is ranked in many evaluations at the top when it comes to enterprise DLP solutions. It has good artificial intelligence that enables our customers to focus on specific incidents, instead of having a complicated list of uncategorized incidents."
"With OCR and Risk Analysis, we are able to determine if anything sensitive is been shared. OCR helps us to safeguard those things and with risk ranking, we can determine which user is trying to violate policies multiple times even though they have been blocked to him or her."
"The product is good and reliable. The vendor company is continually improving it and they seem to stay one step ahead."
"Technical support has been helpful."
"A very user-friendly predefining feature."
"I like that you can quickly create policies and enforce them in a matter of minutes."
"Regardless of the size of your company, this solution can be scaled accurately."
"From a single dashboard, I can take a look at several things including the endpoint protection, the file integrity section, the data activity monitor, and more."
"The feature that I have found most valuable is its general purpose of protecting our endpoints from infections, malicious files, and all those kinds of things. The fact that there are organized policies and policy inheritance. The general management."
"We implemented data transfer protection, which allows transfer in one direction only. Users can copy from the PC to the USB but not from the USB to the PC. That way, if someone is carrying a virus on a USB, it will not be transferred to the PC."
"The graphical interface of the solution is its most valuable aspect."
"Technical support is very helpful."
"What I like the most is the ability to manage centrally, to manage the various devices, the platform, and the endpoint, all from one console."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"McAfee is helping us to clean all of the viruses from the machines, protecting our desktops from the latest threats."
"An area for improvement for Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is its price. It would be good if they could offer better pricing."
"The post-optical character recognization feature could be improved because it only really works on documents with some length (at least three paragraphs)."
"The price could be reduced to be more cost, effective."
"They can improve a bit in the OCR category. The OCR deployment could be simplified. Right now, you have to set up a separate server to manage all the data going through the network, especially the images. Forcepoint could better integrate the OCR component with central management."
"I would like to see the product extended into the cloud as a single solution."
"When you automatically try to upgrade the agent it causes problems."
"The solution's interface is still not user-friendly for some customers. So, its interface can be better."
"Usually for the biome of a small company, like 50 users, setup takes more than one week."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator could improve by supporting container microservices, such as Docker and Kubernetes."
"I would like to see McAfee reduce the amount of manual work required."
"The solution sometimes has some false positives on IP addresses, from the web control aspect of the product. This needs to be improved."
"Lacks a single plug-in for multiple uses."
"The impact of the agent on the endpoint's performance - the resources it takes. Additionally, the difficulties we experience with inheriting and breaking inheritance on the organization's structure breakdown for policy inheritance and then for rules inheritance. We are actually struggling with this."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator support has been helpful. However, sometimes when I raise the case they take a while to answer. For example, the last time I used them it took them two weeks to reply back by email. No one has contacted me back since. They should improve their service."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator needs to upgrade the technology; it's like their area function is not quite as good as compared to other market vendors."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator needs to upgrade its technology since the solution's EDR function is not good compared to other vendors in the market."
