User Testimonials

Likelihood to Recommend	During the pandemic all our users worked remotely that was challenging from security perspective, so we had to deploy the endpoint protection system with cloud based monitoring server. By doing that we were able to keep safety for users workspaces even though some of them did not connect to VPN for a long time Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	McAffee ePolicy Orchestrator is very well suited in large environments. You can load your updates to the repository and deploy them to every node on your network. It has great reporting and auditing features. You can control your users and groups all from the System Tree. DLP is great for USB devices. You can restrict all the ports on a computer and open them up for a limited time to plug in a device. EPO is to bulky for small networks. Incentivized AI Angel Iani Cyber Security Engineer Read full review
Pros	Provides high fidelity alerting. Allows CSOC analysts to perform forensic triage and alert investigations through containment from a single pane of glass. Provides alert telemetry across on-disk and in-memory attacks. Supports many additional 'bolt-on' modules to provide additional alert context or capabilities. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Applies the policy settings for the selected group Keeps the hosts updated well, in general Allows update of available software from within the management console Assigns and runs ongoing tasks with little need for intervention Provides quick high-level view of systems Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Cons	My biggest flak with McAfee Endpoint Security is that it is quite resource-intensive. It does tend to make the system a little slow. You get security at the expense of your machine's speed. Even though the drive encryption makes the system more secure, it takes a lot of time to first enter the very long password, and then for it to decrypt the whole machine. This sometimes clashes with Windows update and causes a lot of complications which leads to boot loops. Incentivized TP Tanish Pruthi Marketing Associate Read full review	It has a slow mechanism when adding custom threat feeds. For example, if McAfee didn't have a signature or detection about a new virus and we try to add it to our console it is like a really big process in adding that to our available signatures. Whenever a scan is performed, the system CPU utilization goes up 100 percent. Installation fails due to difference in timestamp when we try to shuffle between packages.

Support Rating	The support is pretty good, and I haven't had any issues with getting the highest quality technical support when there are issues. Tech support representatives that I have dealt with know the product quite well and have solved many issues that I have had with the product in the past. The only issue I have with support is that it can be quite expensive. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	McAfee support is definitely GREAT! It is one of the best technical support on a business level. GOLD support is recommended to business. Their website is easy and quick to create a ticket. Their technical team usually responds right away with an email or call. Via call and web they provide a full and complete support until the issue is resolved. The best, most of the time they explain in detail what is the issue, the reason and how to resolve it. Incentivized TM Tiago Mokwa IT Senior System Network Administrator Read full review
Alternatives Considered	We only selected McAfee because we are already using ESET NOD32 for the protection of our desktops and laptops. We didn't want to use the same software for our servers so we chose McAfee instead. I personally like ESET Smart Security better than McAfee when deploying it on a desktop or laptop because I think it protects the PC better. When it comes to web protection, policy updates, etc., McAfee is the better choice and that's why we deployed it on our servers. Incentivized Roberta Jones IT Administrative Specialist Read full review	McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator really seemed to have all the best pieces in one platform and the network admin and asst. network admin both had previous experience with the product. The others tend to focus more on singular aspects, whereas McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator has data loss prevention, encryption, anti-virus and other functionality and the excel on each of those points equally. Incentivized GG Gus Gilchrist Asst. Network Admin Read full review
Return on Investment	This tool helped us in delegating the asset safety responsibility to the client level by 80%, leaving 20% for the management console. With a decent pricing, the benefits are slightly above expectations. The ROI is good. But, considering most of the malware comes from internet, with a good email security appliance and next gen firewall in place, the online security alerts are now redundant. It could be something that can be termed as overkill on the budget. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	As with most things the price of products goes up and more-so if your business is growing. We've been able to provide auditors with tangible evidence that our network is protected because of the reporting McAfee ePO provides. Auditors like McAfee because it's been around almost forever and is a mature product. Being a mature product, though, it's very much set in the way it does things and as such there's not a whole lot of innovation. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
