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 ease of configuration was probably one of its biggest selling points."
"One of the most valuable features is the set of built-in policies that Forcepoint has for PCI compliance. We just need to activate them and start working. Without them, it would be a big task to do a data transformation."
"I like the SaaS solution they're offering now a little bit more. It's a new product but it's easy to install and configure."
"The technical support for the solution is very good."
"The solution is easy to manage."
"The incident management and fingerprinting have been the most valuable features."
"The Optical Character Recognition (OCR) functionality is another helpful feature, especially for unstructured data. Being able to discover sensitive data in an unstructured format is the most beneficial element of the solution."
"Forcepoint offers many policies that conform to global DLP best practices, including requirements specific to regions like the Middle East, Europe, etc. They have a policy database in their product. That feature is unique to Forcepoint. Their AI and fingerprinting are incredibly effective and robust. We have tested it multiple times. It always catches the correct data being leaked."
"The most valuable features of McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator are the easy-to-use console, and lots of reports, such as customized reports and inventory reports. Additionally, overall the centralized management is very good where you can see the compliance levels and inventory."
"The central manager policy means we have almost all client modules in one solution."
"The initial setup is very easy."
"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 solution's best part is that it is very easy to manage McAfee Agent."
"McAfee is helping us to clean all of the viruses from the machines, protecting our desktops from the latest threats."
"It is a highly scalable solution. Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a ten out of ten."
"Their support is really good. I would rate it a nine out of ten. I have never any issues with their support. They always reply and follow our queries on time."
"With respect to the discovery component, the reports are very hard to interpret because they come out in an illogical format."
"Their discovery or the way they discover the data at risk can also be improved. There are many database servers that are not supported by Forcepoint."
"The tool needs to integrate data classification."
"We want to be able to do data classification better in the product and reduce false positives, especially on data loss prevention."
"An area for improvement for Forcepoint Data Loss Prevention is its price. It would be good if they could offer better pricing."
"We faced some issues with the endpoint installation of the agent as it is not from a common ground."
"The APIs for device integration are limited, so that could be improved."
"It should integrate better with email."
"It's a little bit complex to configure it, but when you start using it, it is much easier. There are many policies that you need to create, and in three or four places"
"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."
"There are some issues relating to the automation of reports. That's why I wanted the DLP reports. There are some problems in this area. Sometimes it does not work even though all the configuration words are right. There are also some problems with automatic updates."
"There are some issues we are having with updating our Windows server. So we need to contact support or access our support portal."
"The solution could improve the EDR component in many areas, such as the zero-day and persistent threats. The implementation is also complex for this feature."
"The issues with the integration capabilities of the product, specifically the ones that are deployed on an on-premises model, need to be improved."
"Lacks a single plug-in for multiple uses."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator should improve its integration with other tools."
