McAfee Foundstone (discontinued) vs. Terranova Security Awareness Platform

It is well suited for big organizations like banks and multi nationals who can afford the cost and data security is high priority and highly desired. Whereas it is not well suited for small organizations with little budget. There should be product models where it can provide cost effective solutions for small organisations as well.

Terranova Security Awareness Platform may be a good start for companies that want to onboard employees in Security Awareness programs. Integration is well done and full support is accorded. Managed services are really good for what you buy. Reporting is really lacking and you cannot except more than what the platform has. No exact roadmap is presented and nor real ETA for what to expect in the future.

I have found Mcafee as one of the best security software as compare to the others. The other security products I have used so far are Norton utilities, Symantec. Kaspersky, avg, avast. one of the reason for mcafee being better is that it does not bother the user every time for system check or fake warnings.

Terranova Security Awareness Platform, compared to other products from the same line does very well in: 1. Managing services compared to: - KnowBE4 where managed services are very expensive and self configuring, managing is really painful - Microsoft Security, where those services are not provided but are simple to manage 2. Animated interactive modules. This option is not provided across other providers
