    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 …

    If you are using Microsoft Services or newer, cloud ones, it can be worth [it] to try their services but it may be very expensive because of the licensing thing and here Microsoft is very tricky and very difficult to decide the right one.

    I have used Symantec Endpoint Encryption before. Symantec and EPO are both good in their own ways. EPO allows integration of other McAfee products. I have been using ePolicy Orchestrator for years. I have a lot of experience with the product. That is why I like it.

    Compared to these, McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator provides a much more robust and extensible all-around deployment and ongoing management solution.

    Chose Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator
    We selected McAfee EPO partly because we were already using McAfee VSE, but mostly because there are very few other AV management packages out there that offer the same level of enterprise management tools. That's where it really shines - deployment and management of AV in a …

    I think McAfee is a strong competitor and holds up well when compared to other software of its kind. If McAfee antivirus is already being used then it makes sense to go with this product to add another layer of management to the network.

    Chose Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator
    McAfee plays well in not only scanning the endpoint machines like the data which is shared through disks or pen drive but it also helps in internet security. With its wide range threat source it blocks users entering into malicious sites and also blocks suspicious things which …

    Chose Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator
    Other products that were reviewed were Symantec's DLP and Forcepoint. The reason we ultimately went the ePolicy Orchestrator route was that we owned other McAfee products and the logic way to bring them together and to gain the maximum information was to bin them together with …

    We have not evaluated any other products in a very long time because moving to another AV product suite would be a very costly and long process. Another AV product would have to provide a very large cost reduction, performance improvements and unknown threat finding. We …

    We were using VIPRE Anti-virus for years and switched to McAfee. We gained better insight into our environment. Management felt more secure knowing that at any moment we could bring up reports into what was going on in our environment.

    McAfee ePO was able to give us time back …

    [McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator] seems to be better suited to large enterprise applications... I don't feel it really suits the or self-managed SMB market. The general joe is not going to understand how to wield this product to it's full potential. For those of us managing large networks, this is a very ideal product for managing multiple sites and users.

    Pros
    Trellix (Musarubra US LLC)
    • Static malware scans for known bad processes and files works well and can be schedules on endpoints easily
    • Preventing users from accessing USB drives and other peripherals is easily configured. We can also allow users to access to USB drives with user codes for the times they need it for business reasons.
    • ePO provides access into our MSME software so that we're not managing many different products from different locations.
    • In recent years the console has gotten much easier to navigate even though there is a ton of information to be accessed.

    Cons
    Trellix (Musarubra US LLC)
    • 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.

    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.
