Featured Reviews

Ashford Asante - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralized system, less stress on the network and runs smoothly
It functions like a standard antivirus – I scan, I get reports... it gets the job done as I configure it. Overall, I'm satisfied with McAfee MOVE Antivirus. I haven't experienced any compatibility issues so far. So, it also offers good integration capabilities with other tools. The quality of the reports depends on what you're looking for. They can be good, bad, or average. Overall, the reporting functionality is adequate.
Harel Cohen - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers excellent endpoint protection and great stability
Technically speaking, the customer support is okay, but the responsiveness needs to be improved. I'm referring to the universal support, as the Israeli staff are excellent and always willing to help. However, opening a case and entering into a back-and-forth with emails takes too much time. It should be working more quickly and smoothly.
DanielBass - PeerSpot reviewer
Improves network security with micro-segmentation but setup is complex
I value the ability to dynamically configure our network on the fly using VMware NSX. This flexibility is a huge advantage because it allows us to avoid static configurations that come with traditional hardware setups. Additionally, the micro-segmentation feature is beneficial for adhering to strict security regulations from our security department.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution is very stable and reliable."
"McAfee provides a console which is very flexible, usable and user-friendly."
"The product offers good compatibility with other solutions and has good integration potential."
"The solution is reasonably priced."
"It's valuable for protection and internet safety."
"I have found the McAfee MOVE AntiVirus scalable."
"The most valuable feature is the protection we have had over the years."
"We use the solution to prevent viruses and threats."
"We like the Smart protection and the Virtual patching."
"In addition to providing our clients a view of what's happening in their data centers, it also does virtual patching in the data center. It enhances the security in the data center big time."
"Automated virtual patching is a good feature."
"We find that their technical support team is always accessible and willing to assist."
"Deep Security is a good product for managing a few servers."
"The vulnerability scanning reduces false positives by quite a bit."
"It has improved functions by bringing us complete security on our clients' virtual environment."
"Patch management is most valuable. The major selling point of Deep Security is that it is based on the cloud. Deep Security is for the servers and databases of data centers, and generally, for patch management, you have to shut down the machines, and then you have to restart them. So, they need shutdown time, which is a cost. Big enterprises don't want to shut down their database or their data center for any kind of patch. Deep Security creates a wall and downloads all patches. You install it on the cloud. So, it saves your server from any kind of intrusion or any kind of penetration, and whenever you get a chance or time, in six, eight, or nine months, you can physically download or install all those patches in one go. So, it saves you time. It also saves your shutdown time and keeps your data center safe."
"The most valuable features of VMware NSX are the tight integration with the VMware Hypervisor natively and the management console. We have a lot of other integrations where you are able to see the virtual machine's end-to-end visibility."
"I really like the management dashboard, the tailor-made assurance, the telemetry, and the ease of integration with all other solutions of VMware, such as vSphere."
"The most valuable features for us at this early stage are the interface and the integration with existing VMware solutions."
"The Distributed firewall is simple to add to the network and rules are easy to implement."
"It's very important for them to have small footprints and have as much services in their servers, as possible."
"We secured our organisation with Micro-segmentation."
"The solution is very good at micro-segmentation."
"The most valuable feature of VMware NSX is the ease of use and its user friendly. For example, it is simple to change the subnet masks."
 

Cons

"The installation process could be improved. It's a bit difficult, but once you get it right, it's fine."
"I would like to see improvements made to make it more secure."
"The most valuable features of this product are the updated database, the low consumption of resources, and that you can leave it working in the background and it doesn't need any attention."
"The tool's stability could be better."
"The security of the solution could improve."
"They could improve the monitoring and classification of the data features."
"Right now, nothing is missing from the solution."
"Lacks cloud security integrated with the antivirus."
"There should be signature-based advanced and responsive features."
"I would like to see XDR features and endpoint sensor become available."
"Trend Micro is scalable if you have the budget for it."
"We'd like to see extended capacity in the on-premises versions."
"There should be more tools to trace back. Some sort of module needs to be included to attach all the things. It should be more stable, and the traceback feature should be improved. There were cases when we got virtual analyzer or CMC errors. We got false-positive malware notifications, but we couldn't trace them. I raised a case with Trend Micro two or three times, but they couldn't resolve it. Their support should be improved in terms of technical abilities to troubleshoot complex issues. They should be more knowledgeable."
"Sometimes, the product is not very stable, but it is something that depends on the infrastructure in which the tool is used."
"Their support should be improved. We need support in the UAE, but it is always going to some other country or region, and the time schedule is not suitable for us."
"The tool should integrate SIM functionality. It should also improve customer support."
"Everybody needs a network to connect to, and VMware doesn't readily provide one."
"I would like to have automating reporting built into common service management platforms, such as JIRA, Serviceaide, and ServiceNow."
"The price could be better. The non-enterprise version of the product should also be improved. I would like VMware to expand beyond the network and provide some VLAN technologies and more. I think we have one, but it's more on the distribution side because it's more on the upper side of the network. I'm looking forward to that."
"In the next release, they should enhance the visual interface. With NSX-T, it's difficult to communicate between the public cloud and the container."
"They have some limitations in the firewall features as compared to the on-prem or dedicated hardware appliance. They can add more features, such as IPS and IDS, to the cloud firewall."
"One aspect that needs improvement is the need for further automation."
"VMware NSX provides a lot of automation capabilities, but there is still room for improvement."
"I have no complaints regarding the user interface or any technical issues."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The licensing depends on the number of devices secured by this product."
"The solution could reduce the price of the solution. We are on an annual license."
"Pricing is reasonable."
"The solution requires an annual license."
"We have purchased a three-year license to use the solution and the price is reasonable."
"The licensing fees are billed on an annual basis."
"We have purchased an annual license to use this solution. The price of the solution could be lower."

"The solution’s pricing is reasonable."
"There is a subscription cost to use this product."

"The solution is considerably cheaper than other similar solutions."
"The solution is offered at an average price point"
"The tool's pricing is reasonable."

"We have saved man-hours and decreased our security exposure."
"Pricing and licensing could be improved as we are a government entity. Lower pricing could always help."
"You can scale NSX if you have the resources, but it's usually expensive and complex to scale up."
"We can't go without NSX, so it's invaluable from this perspective."
"This solution requires a licence."
"We are using a perpetual license to use the solution and we have support."
