Quarantines devices and blocks ransomware, but dashboard and reporting features are not user-friendly
Pros and Cons
- "The most valuable features of the solution are the ability to isolate or quarantine devices and block or detect Ransomware and other well-known tools that are used to exploit vulnerabilities on devices."
- "The dashboard and reporting features are not so user-friendly or intuitive, so they need some work."
What is our primary use case?
We use this solution to protect our endpoints, meaning our workstation laptops.
What is most valuable?
The most valuable features of the solution are the ability to isolate or quarantine devices and block or detect Ransomware and other well-known tools that are used to exploit vulnerabilities on devices.
What needs improvement?
The dashboard and reporting features are not so user-friendly or intuitive, so they need some work.
In terms of being able to detect new threats, it would be good if the solution was not so dependent on a signature base, but instead offered a more rapid release for being able to detect zero-days.
For how long have I used the solution?
My company has been using McAfee MVISION Endpoint Detection and Response for about seven months.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is stable.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is easily scalable.
How are customer service and support?
Their technical support is better than some of the competitors in the space. To make a direct comparison, it's definitely better than Symantec Broadcom.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup takes a bit of work, but it can be done. It's not easy. It's not hard. It's in between.
What other advice do I have?
I would rate this solution as a seven out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

Scalable with a good strategy when everything is in place
What is our primary use case?
This is more of a cloud-based clientless type solution, for file-based security.
What is most valuable?
The solution is scalable and the product has a good strategy when everything is in place.
What needs improvement?
One of their issues is that they were very much based on agents, whereas most of the other solutions are clientless. There were a lot of legacy issues and they needed to evolve to more of the current operating systems of Microsoft for endpoint systems and PCs. If you're clientless, your cloud-based applications sit on top of the operating system and are not built into it.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
It's reasonably stable. They made some changes to the architecture and that always creates issues.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The solution is scalable.
How are customer service and support?
They had pretty good tech support. I think a lot of what happened to McAfee, from my perspective, was everything went offshore to India and for US customers, there is a language barrier that created problems.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup was relatively complicated and used a lot of resources - CPU resources, memory, disk.
What other advice do I have?
There are a lot of companies in this space now and they are all pretty close to each other in terms of what they offer. I think those that are more user-friendly, and have the agentless client have the advantage over the legacy companies with older architecture.
They lost a lot of product managers and engineering managers in the breakup. That said, I think this is a good product with a good strategy, they just haven't quite reached maturity yet.
I rate this solution eight out of 10.

Resource-heavy, slow processing time, and bad technical support
Pros and Cons
- "This is a stable product."
- "The main drawbacks are resources and processing time, as it consumes a lot of CPU and RAM."
What is our primary use case?
I have upgraded to EDR for endpoint protection.
What is most valuable?
Feature-wise, this product is similar to other EDRs.
What needs improvement?
The main drawbacks are resources and processing time, as it consumes a lot of CPU and RAM.
The alert system should be improved.
Technical support is in need of improvement.
The dashboard should be improved because it needs a fresh look.
Improvement in the centralized policy enforcement is needed.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using this product for three years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
This is a stable product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
The scalability is okay, although not much more than that.
How are customer service and technical support?
This is the worst technical support. Without OEM support, you can't handle this product. OEM support is mandatory, yet sometimes, they are not capable of installing and implementing the product properly.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I was using McAfee DLP for Endpoint protection, but it is not very strong. This is why I have upgraded to the EDR solution.
How was the initial setup?
We did not have any issues with configuration. However, in terms of implementation, we had a lot of issues. There is complexity in policy aggregation. When you upgrade the client, there is a challenge in policy enforcement.
Initially, it will take about one month to deploy.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
The cost is okay, compared to other products.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We have been looking at replacing McAfee with Trend Micro, but to change our setup is a big task. It is very complex and we need a plan, so are just upgrading instead of changing at this time.
What other advice do I have?
My advice for anybody looking into implementing this product is to first look into who will be providing the support. If they do not have good capabilities and the support is not very strong, then do not choose this option.
I would rate this solution a three out of ten.
Which deployment model are you using for this solution?
On-premises
