McAfee MOVE AntiVirus Other Advice

Ashford Asante - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at Lancaster Kumasi City

Overall, I would rate the solution a nine out of ten. It's a good product. 

If McAfee can improve the administrative interface to be more user-friendly, then I would definitely recommend it. Currently, you might need some external support to manage it effectively, which can be a cost consideration.

The main benefit is the protection it provides. My systems haven't been attacked, which is ultimately what matters.

Overall, I would rate the solution a seven out of ten. I would definitely recommend McAfee itself. Every enterprise security solution is up to date with the latest threats, so there wouldn't be major challenges between McAfee, Symantec, or any of them in that regard.

However, my overall recommendation depends on their specific requirements. If you're looking for a specific solution like a firewall or a web application firewall (WAF) specifically, then my suggestion might change. It would depend on where you're planning to configure it - Azure, GCP, on-premises, etc. 

For example, if their applications are running on Azure and need a WAF, I would suggest Azure WAF instead of a third-party service like McAfee. But if it's on-premises or another cloud platform, then it depends on the available services. In that case, McAfee might be a good suggestion.

Whether it's McAfee, running on-premises, or Azure Defender for your Azure VMs, it will impact resource utilization. The impact depends on the specific security measurements you're looking for. 

For example, in Azure, Azure Defender is already available and very user-friendly. You just enable it, and it takes care of everything. If McAfee has a similar service available in the marketplace, then I could recommend McAfee as well.

I would advise others to keep track of when their solution expires. It is important to keep your solution up to date. If it is not up to date you can be vulnerable to threats, such as spyware.

McAfee's support and prices differ from country to country. In Japan, if a user buys one McAfee software to use for a long time, it can be installed for multiple devices.

If someone wants to install a product for multiple clients, I suggest McAfee. In Japan, Trend Micro is preferred as it is convenient to use, and support is not so difficult to get since Trend Micro's head office is in Japan. For normal people, I suggest Trend Micro. If one person wants to install the product on many PCs, then I suggest McAfee.

I rate the overall tool a seven out of ten.

PC
Program Administrator at a manufacturing company with 10,001+ employees

I would rate this solution 5 out of 10 because of the lag that it produces in the system. As soon as you switch it on, it takes four to five minutes in addition to the lag Windows 10 causes due to the size of the operating system. With respect to protection it's fine, but with respect to the delay of speed, it's much slower.

I wouldn't recommend McAfee Move Antivirus for Windows 10. It has a self-defense mechanism available in the processor itself. In that case, why would you need a separate antivirus? It's not required. The Windows Defender is already available and it's more than capable for just browsing through applications and websites. It's more capable of defending the system from any malware or any virus from the net. So in that case, I feel that McAfee is not required.

Shantanu Adsule - PeerSpot reviewer
Information Technology Infrastructure Engineer at eTelic Inc

We are customers and end-users.

I cannot recall the exact version number of our current solution.

We are doing R&D right now. I'm new to this organization and I have to manage it all. I find that right now, with McAfee, we're trying to figure out what to do with it. It's up for renewal. We're working to decide if it should stay or if we should switch to something new. 

The console is not user-friendly and that's a bit of a turn-off. It's making us reconsider the product.

That said, I'd recommend the solution to other organizations. It's good. It's just that, if I appointed a new trainee and I asked him to set the policy for the security on a user's laptop he would just get annoyed. If it was more user-friendly I wouldn't have to worry about the onboarding process so much. New team members would just be able to handle the tasks and not be confused by the technology itself.

I'd rate the solution at an eight out of ten.

The solution is both cloud-based and on-premises. 

McAfee is the way to go for someone who only is interested in using DLP and antivirus. It will also allow a person to use the device controller. Sophos makes available the use of full DLP. However, one must use Symantec for drive encryption, which is very good.

CISO at a financial services firm with 5,001-10,000 employees

McAfee is known to be one of the best anti-malware products out there. We are aware of what's happening in the industry.

The only advice I would give is to ensure there's a proper business arrangement in terms of the support. If there is no support from the vendor deploying the solution, then they must enforce training and knowledge transfer during the project implementation period so that there can be in-house support. Otherwise, they should have a kind of agreement that can confirm that the vendors can support them after deploying the solution.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate McAfee MOVE AntiVirus an eight.
