Though the scalability of the product is good, if McAfee sorts out the connectivity issues related to the agents, then it can be made a better product. The product has been in the market for a long time. The tool has been in the market during a time when no other OEM products were even introduced. The tool should improve some of its services.

We have about 400 to 500 users on the solution. Everyone has a McAfeee account installed on their machine.
The solution scales well. I'd rate the ease of scaling ten out of ten.

Around 600 users use the solution in our organization.
I rate McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator ten out of ten for scalability.
It is a scalable solution. There are around 3,000 to 4,000 customers, and end users using the product. I rate its scalability a nine out of ten.
Most of the features are scalable, especially when transitioning to newer versions.
I would give it a rating of ten for scalability. Approximately around 50 to 100 users are currently using McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator. Some clients are small businesses, while others are enterprise-level.

It is scalable. That's not an issue.
All the endpoints are protected with the platform and the servers, as well. It is something like 8,000 endpoints and 500 servers, quite a lot. In our Belgium branch of the company we're actually talking about almost everyone, we're like 5,000 employees, so that's only for Belgium. But there are more endpoints than the number of employees, of course.
There are the general workstations. Some users have more than one endpoint assigned to them, or a business or team's endpoints that are used in common within the team. That explains the larger number of endpoints compared to the number of employees we have in Belgium. There are different levels of the management who use this.
We have one guy in our team, in our Belgium site, that is almost fully dedicated to managing the antivirus product on the endpoint level, the workstation level. And then another person who is partially occupied, one third or half of his time for the server component. But as I told you, the endpoint workstations are being managed on a higher corporate level. There is also at least one person who concentrates some of his time on the management level. So, in total, for Belgium, let's say, two FTs.
I don't think we have any plans to increase because in fact, all our endpoints are covered. It grows and shrinks with the number of endpoints we have. The percentage stays the same.

The product can scale if a company needs it to.
I do plan to scale and would like to use it for more of the system nodes.

It is scalable. We have 150,000 endpoints using an agent handler in between. The scalability does require us to do a lot of planning for things, like bandwidth. The problem is with the complexity. If one thing breaks, it can also impact a bunch of other things.
It serves a purpose. If you set it up right, it can really manage a very complex environment which require fine tuning where there are a lot of exceptions. That's what it caters to. It can just do those specifics in those exceptional situations, which is good.

It is fairly easy to add new devices. It is controlled within our environment.
All employees and all servers are using it. It is being used extensively, but we don't plan to increase its usage because we're looking to get a replacement for this solution.

In terms of scalability, McAfee is the best there is from all of the products that I've used. Why I say that is because you can manage a lot of products if you install the endpoint security pack. The is one of the products that has impressed me over the years. There is a version of the solution that actually allows you to manage certain versions of Symantec products. So, this is a good product, and when it comes to scalability, I think it's one of those products that you won't go wrong with.
We do have some larger corporate clients, but there are not many of them. Most of the client base in Zimbabwe is small to medium-sized business. The majority have less than two-hundred and fifty PCs on-site, which I consider being small or medium size. We also do support for hospitals, schools, universities, and even government.

The scalability of the McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is good.
We have more than 75,000 users using this solution. We are using a combination of McAfee and FireEye where the antivirus part is provided by McAfee and the EDR part is covered by FireEye. Our next target is to combine both of these elements, either FireEye or McAfee.

The product is very scalable, it's very easy to add users.
Scalability is fine. We have around 600 users. We required two or three staff for maintenance and monitoring. They're security analysts, and junior consultants.

No, we were able to scale this from a single location within the US of 100 endpoints to 5,000+ globally within a week with only 10% of the systems having a problem that needed to be addressed because of a specialized configuration.

We have about 2500 people using the solution in our organization. They're a mix of people, including engineers and architects. We use it quite extensively - on a regular basis.
The solution is scalable, but the issue for us is that the pricing can be quite high.

The solution is very scalable. You just need to add more licenses. That's it.
As it's an antivirus for our endpoints, everybody in our company technically uses the solution. Everyone is affected by it.
We plan to use the solution in the future. I'm unsure as to if we'll expand our usage or not.
