The deployment from the ePolicy Orchestator console to either re-imaged or rebuilt laptops was sporadic and not reliable enough to be standalone.

When we upgraded the agent deployed on our users' computers, it locked out the people who were still on the old agent, which was not supposed to happen.

We’ve also had an issue previously with one of the modules of Mcafee Endpoint encryption, DLP. This particular module, when we upgraded to the latest version ,took up all the resources on the computer, making it unusable. We had to remove this module from all the affected computers.

The polices and rules take time if you don’t know the product.
This is not unique to McAfee and it's not really an issue.

Deployment of agents and products to end-user machines is straightforward and easy. The basic McAfee ePO deployment is not easy and you need good knowledge in SQL and servers.

Patch release is not fast when there is a new OS on the market, so compatibility issues will come and can cause slowness on end-user devices. For example, I had a tough time when Windows 10 was released and the devices were not protected for a month, which is not advisable.

The upgrade of the new ePO from older versions always have issues and need support from McAfee engineers all the time. In a span of three years, we had upgraded three times and all three times were difficult. But the engineers were good enough and at the end of the day, they fixed it.
