AhmedEl-Tayeb - PeerSpot reviewer
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.
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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The product is fairly reliable."
"Initially, the DLP was very valuable for disabling access to USB drives."
"It provides a robust defense against cybersecurity threats while offering user-friendly features like notifications and approval prompts."
"Threat prevention is valuable because most clients use other solutions like antivirus as part of web protection. I don't find that kind of solution useful."
"The performance is good."
"This product has the capability to check a wide range of vulnerabilities and devices."
"It can be deployed quickly, and it's scalable. Those are the two advantages of it."
"The product’s stability and security features enhance user protection and organizational security."
"There are a good signature set and a high rate of detection."
"The traceback feature in XDR is amazing. You can trace back an attack. You can playback where an attack actually occurred and see how the attacker moved. We can easily show this to management, and it makes it easy to make them understand and convince them, which is the best thing."
"I switched to Trend Micro because of its good marketing techniques."
"It serves its purpose and works well."
"​Very straightforward and very easy to implement.​"
"We find that their technical support team is always accessible and willing to assist."
"Deep Security enables us to bridge the gap between patching windows using the Virtual Patching feature. This allows us to make sure full patching is tested properly in our testing environments before rollout."
"I like the anti-malware features."
 

Cons

"They can improve its resource consumption, such as memory, and maybe provide better or smaller updates. It always takes a lot of resources, but it has been getting better. I have been using McAfee products for the last 20 years or so, and I know it is getting better."
"We would like to see all the features available on cloud."
"The endpoint has room for improvement because it's restrictive, it's very sensitive. Sometimes it can delete something that you need and so sometimes you have to disable the antivirus."
"We experienced some bad behavior when we first installed the product. The system also starts slowly in some instances. If for some reason this solution crashes, we could lose all our data."
"The initial setup is complex. It is a very complex product. You must have experience with it."
"Every time we open a ticket with McAfee, their response differs and they are not consistent."
"The software download features could stand improvement."
"McAfee Endpoint Protection could improve the word control feature."
"Requires simplification, a fair amount of trouble shooting required."
"The solution could use more integration."
"The default reports provided don't provide much insight."
"A minor issue in Trend Micro Deep Security is that once the tool is upgraded, it shows some machines as offline or not reported while showing a recent update as outdated. The tool has some server connection issues."
"There could be a centralized management server to oversee all platform functionalities."
"The tool needs to be made more user-friendly. The dashboard is there, but the solution's false positives are a bit higher."
"Pricing is on the expensive side and could be more affordable. The technical support for Trend Micro Deep Security also needs improvement."
"I would like to see XDR features and endpoint sensor become available."
