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.
Nagendra Nekkala - PeerSpot reviewer
A highly stable solution that protects computers from viruses, spyware, and hackers
ZoneAlarm doesn't require much maintenance. You only need to update the application when there are any latest updates. ZoneAlarm is deployed on-cloud in our organization. With an increase in the bring your own device concept, ZoneAlarm should be part of every device to help us make the operational work very easy. Overall, I rate ZoneAlarm a nine out of ten.
