Alexander Zhuravel - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly scalable tool that ensures its users face no problems while using it as a backup system
The tool is scalable and is currently being used on over 2,000 nodes. So, our company doesn't count the number of clients we have, but we do count the number of nodes, specifically referring to file system nodes, backup nodes, database nodes, virtual machine nodes, and blockchain nodes, which we use for file-based applications. According to the traffic, a backup of five petabytes of data can be done for a month.

Good user behavioral analysis and helpful patching but needs better support services
Some of our products have a first and second line owned by us. We are giving support services to the customers instead of the vendor. Some other products are supported directly by the technology vendor, however. Technical support from the vendor is very bad. Usually, when the customer submits a ticket, they put a severity level on the case. Whenever the case is very important, and there is a real malfunction in the product on the customer side, and there is something down that needs someone to have a look immediately, it takes more time than it should to even engage with the customer. When someone has to contact the customer and have a remote session within the customer environment, they sometimes lack in terms of communication with the customer. The support centers are located in the East and not all have an acceptable level of English in order to communicate directly with the customer.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Dell Data Protection has a decent service and integrates well with users' active directories."
"It is a stable solution. Our company faces no problems with the backup system…The initial setup wasn't complex."
"There's a really they have a really nice way to test it first. Before you adopt it. And so I would suggest trying to they they create a test site for you, and they give you a link to it, and you can basically try out all the features on your own for I think we did it for a month."
"The most valuable features of the solution are its speed, backup speed, and restore speed."
"It is a stable solution."
"The security engine is effective at catching potential threats."
"The backup speed and deduplication are the most valuable features."
"We really like the dashboard from Trellix and we've found that it's pretty informative."
"The product is fairly reliable."
"It's easy to use."
"The solution is stable."
"I think the costing is fine compared to other products. Cost-wise you definitely get value for your money."
"The most valuable feature is the centralized console where everything can be controlled by the administration."
"The product has a robust reporting feature"
"Automatic user recovery prior to Windows booting up."
 

Cons

"The backup speed and deduplication are the most valuable features."
"I consider the product pretty expensive, so from an improvement perspective, I would like the pricing to be better."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
"Implementation in a beta environment is necessary before rollout to the larger community."
"The solution’s user interface should be made more user-friendly."
"Whenever we talk about reporting, I have a chance to look at the reporting, and in my opinion, it's not user-friendly."
"With McAfee, if there is a zero-day vulnerability, you have to download the patch for it from the McAfee website, then apply it to your endpoint."
"The solution has problematic encryption, which needs reforming."
"The product is not easy to use."
"The solution needs to offer better local technical support."
"The solution takes up a high amount of memory and can cause the system to hang."
"The resolution time should be faster."
"Support-wise they need to be better."
"There are two main areas that require improvement. One is the size of the packages. Although I'll admit manageability is good, if I want to deploy, let's say just the antivirus or just the firewall, each of those package sizes are quite large. They are sometimes as big as 200MB or 250MB. When I have operations in remote areas where connectivity is always poor, it's difficult. To deploy such a package in a remote location over the internet or something like that is always challenging."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"It is more expensive than one of its competitors."
"It is an expensive solution."
"You'll need to pay more than the product's original price for the support."
"Its price is reasonable, but it could be made free."
"I would rate the cost as four to five, considering it's normal compared to other products. I find it nominal and worth the money."
"The price of the solution is fair, we have a complete security package."
"For each computer that is connected to the server McAfee charges us for each computer based on our license agreement."
"The solution is not an expensive tool. Compared to other options, it's mostly average-priced. I've deployed it for customers ranging from 100 nodes to over 5,000 nodes. Its renewal prices are very low, and it offers both perpetual and subscription licenses. With a perpetual license, the product will keep working as long as it's not end-of-life, which benefits companies."
"It is reasonably priced."
"I am happy with the pricing."
"There is a one-year and a three-year license available for this solution, we are currently on a three-year license."
