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.
Jaffar Ali - PeerSpot reviewer
Ensures continuous protection with real-time scanning of emails and mailboxes
ScanMail needs improvement in its reporting, as it is currently weak in some areas. Additionally, the response time of their technical support is slow and needs enhancement. Overall, Trend Micro's technical support has deteriorated, and pricing is another area that requires attention. The list pricing is high, and we lose deals against competitors because of this. Trend Micro should consider reducing their prices, especially for large customers.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable features of McAfee MOVE AntiVirus are the auto-scans on the systems, and if it detects any virus, it will send out notifications or alerts."
"The tool offers protection from viruses for devices and endpoints."
"Technical support is okay."
"The solution is scalable. There are approximately 30 users using it in my organization."
"We use the solution to prevent viruses and threats."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus was both stable and scalable."
"The most beneficial aspect of McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is its compatibility. I have heard from friends that it is more adaptable than other antivirus programs, particularly for those using different operating systems, such as Mac OS. This cross-platform compatibility is a valuable feature of McAfee MOVE AntiVirus."
"The solution is good at protecting my laptop from online threats such as malware."
"The most effective feature of ScanMail is its real-time antivirus behaviors, particularly when it scans URLs."
"Its integration with mail platforms is valuable."
"It does the job. Even when our clients have a very high rate of emails per second, there has been no problem."
"I like that Trend Micro ScanMail is very effective and quite strong."
"The most effective feature of ScanMail is its real-time antivirus behaviors, particularly when it scans URLs."
"The analysis part is good."
"What I like the most about Trend Micro ScanMail is its easiness."
"I find Trend Micro ScanMail to be a stable solution, and I would rate its stability as nine out of ten."
 

Cons

"It requires deployment of multiple agents for multiple jobs which is unnecessary."
"The security could always be better."
"They should work to make the renewal process better. I'd like to see is a few weeks of notification up front that the renewal is about to expire."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus could improve by consolidating the dashboard of all the endpoints and proving real-time alerts."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus does not support integration with other devices, making it an area where improvements are required."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus could improve by making it more secure."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability."
"SentinelOne provides a cloud solution that McAfee MOVE AntiVirus should as well. When all other vendors come out with new features they are implemented by all the other vendors within a few months. However, this is not the case with McAfee MOVE AntiVirus. They should update their features more often to be more competitive with the market."
"ScanMail was one of the best solutions a few years ago, but it is no longer the best solution because of its old-fashioned management console. Customers associate it with something that is old because there is no change in the management console. It has old icons, and it is not fresh enough. It is also not easy to use or play with. The report engine is also old-fashioned. Customers want something easier, quicker, and cleaner."
"ScanMail needs improvement in its reporting, as it is currently weak in some areas."
"Its user interface is pretty old-fashioned, and sometimes, it's hard to find the features that you are looking for. The user interface definitely needs some improvement."
"The price could be better. I think it's pretty good compared to other solutions as far as the features are concerned. It basically covers most of the stuff which we require for email security. But it would be better if they made it a little cheaper and more cost-effective. That would make it easier for us to sell it."
"The weaknesses of Trend Micro ScanMail are that it doesn't fully protect ad-based web access and lacks proper security for Outlook, iOS, and web browser access."
"The sandboxing part can be improved."
"ScanMail needs improvement in its reporting, as it is currently weak in some areas."
"I believe there is room for improvement in better signatures, better reporting features, and more insight into the spam emails database."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The subscription for the solution is annually or every three years."
"We have purchased a three-year license to use the solution and the price is reasonable."
"The solution could reduce the price of the solution. We are on an annual license."
"Our subscription is yearly."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus can be an expensive solution, depending on the size and quantity."
"There is a need to make payments towards the licensing costs of the product, but it is not too much, in my opinion."
"The licensing fees are billed on an annual basis."
"The license for McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is based on the number of users."
"It is an expensive solution. I rate the pricing a seven out of ten."
"It's a yearly subscription, but the price could be better."
