All of the programs can be administered from one console
Pros and Cons
  • "The thing that I like is that they have gathered almost all the products in one management server, the ePolicy Orchestrator."
  • "It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment."

What is most valuable?

The thing that I like is that they have gathered almost all of the products in one management server, the ePolicy Orchestrator. Although, it is quite complicated to learn it and to feel comfortable with the environment, you have the flexibility to administer all of the programs from one console.

Regarding the DLP product, there are many flavors.

Also, I haven't seen any data leakage through the endpoint.

McAfee offers an integrated solution, and it covers almost all the possibilities of data loss.

What needs improvement?

If we go to, for example, scanning data from text to just pictures, then the loader goes really high. It might sometimes become impossible to cover all these fixes because the data that are gathered and are processed are very big, and the resources can run out.

It can be quite complicated to learn McAfee Endpoint Security and to feel comfortable with the environment.

The technical support can be improved.

For how long have I used the solution?

I've been working with this solution for five years.

How are customer service and support?

I would rate McAfee's technical support at seven on a scale from one to ten. There were some issues that we experienced.

Even though it took me one or two years to get comfortable with it, I would rate McAfee Endpoint Security at nine on a scale from one to ten. All-in-all, our customers seem to be okay with some of the restrictions and the relevant risk with McAfee Endpoint Security.

We can see an actual attack and can contain it but the endpoint has room for improvement
Pros and Cons
  • "It has improved my organization because it helps with visibility, in terms of security. We can see the actual attack and can contain it. The antivirus can detect that."
  • "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."

What is our primary use case?

My primary use case of this solution is for the endpoint protection.

How has it helped my organization?

It has improved my organization because it helps with visibility, in terms of security. We can see the actual attack and can contain it. The antivirus can detect that. 

What is most valuable?

  • Drive 
  • DLP feature for device control

What needs improvement?

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.

For how long have I used the solution?

One to three years.

What do I think about the scalability of the solution?

It's quite scalable. We have around 30 users. 

How is customer service and technical support?

I would rate their technical support an eight out of ten. It's not a ten because I would like to see them resolve a case within the day. Sometimes it takes them a long time. 

How was the initial setup?

The initial setup was not complex. The deployment took only a few minutes. We only needed one employee for the deployment. If need be, we'll require two employees for maintenance but one is usually enough. 

What about the implementation team?

We used a reseller for the implementation. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

It's fairly priced compared to other products on the market.
