Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We have been using Trellix ePolicy Orchestrator for several years now, It has simplified and streamlined our endpoint security management, allowing us to more easily track and manage threats across our network and We have been able to automate many of our security processes, freeing up time for our IT team to focus on other critical tasks. The reporting and analytics capabilities are also very robust and help us stay on top of potential threats.

Likelihood to Recommend

The platform is also a good fit for organizations that need to comply with industry regulations or security standards, such as HIPAA, PCI DSS, or ISO 27001. These organizations require a comprehensive, auditable security solution that can be customized to meet their specific needs, and Trellix ePO can provide that..!!

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is our sole AV product and used for all our systems, servers and PCs alike. We like McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator because it's easy to manage, but robust enough to allow granular control over certain endpoints. Being cloud-based, there's no overhead on our end to be concerned with on prem - one less thing for me to be concerned with managing.

Likelihood to Recommend

[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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator was used as a Management Console for all our AV endpoints agents, including workstations, laptops and servers.

The goal was to have a robust AV solution that will provide well know protection against malware [and] viruses.

We needed a Centralized Solution, capable to deploy the agents across network and create alerts on Handled/Unhandled events.

Likelihood to Recommend

Very good protection.

It comes with the basic protection, called Endpoint Security (which can be another thing to review).

If you want to go more granular, like Firewall, Web-Control, it has to be decided before buying the license.

But all those products [are] worth the investment.

Lacking on some compatibility, ex. WEBControl can be disabled from the Browsers (except IE), still place for improvement.

Hardware resources can use all endpoint resources if not configured properly.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is used throughout the organization. It has been used for years. Because we are a Defense Contractor we rely heavily on all the benefits that EPO provides from real time virus scanning to usb peripheral detection. It is used both on the classified and unclassified sides.

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

One of the major things we use it for is USB storage file access. We use this for the whitelisted process, to tag endpoints with additional tasks for remediation, and to quarantine the endpoint or systems with restricted policies.

Likelihood to Recommend

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is best suited for the enterprise environment. If you have other McAfee products in the organization, then it is very good to have such tool in place to manage products. Helps in maintaining security posture as per organization policy by installing agents.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePO was deployed in 2014 after many occurrences of crypto locker attacks worldwide. It was deployed to all our domain machines, with Antivirus and Agents. It is constantly monitored and updated. This provided a real-time protection to all our users in different locations. It was deployed to all departments and it provides the extra security any business need nowadays. I can confirm it was able to catch many instances of malicious files that users tried to open or execute addressing the issues where users unintentionally open phishing scam emails believing their content. A must for every company.

Likelihood to Recommend

I would definitely recommend McAfee ePO to all companies and all IT admins/managers as a must-have to ensure the protection of the company network and data. Nowadays malicious files are evolving every day and a good system security is necessary as one of the protections, especially regarding users, as even the best spam protections can not guarantee it.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator server is used to set and enforce policy for McAfee Host Protection (VirusScan, etc.), Site Advisor, and McAfee Disk Encryption enterprise-wide. The agent also gives us information on host hardware and software, location, etc. We also use it to generate reports regarding disk space and other info.

Likelihood to Recommend

Any group with any amount of PCs over 25 to 50, is well placed to take advantage of McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator. McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator might not be well suited for very small organizations.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee EPO is used across our entire organization, it centrally manages the AV and protects every server and workstation we have. It's a single pane of glass to manage updating and provisioning of our corporate AV solution. It's used to protect both servers and workstations against malware and can detect more targeted attacks.

Likelihood to Recommend

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is great for centrally managing a fleet of Windows servers and workstations. It does offer multi-OS support, but Linux clients tend to have more issues than Windows clients. Initially, excluded paths need to be set, and on Windows, it's pretty solid after that part gets dialed in right.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator provides security and great end-user service. For us, the implementation and deployment was fast with the support from the vendor. Very good features and customization. Very secure applications that help us to protect data from threats. Awesome tool for security threat prevention and this detects threats perfectly. This is one of the best products around the market.

Likelihood to Recommend

What I like the most is the fact that McAfee tries many different approaches to hit its target, securing the customers. Its feature-rich reporting, dashboarding, and deployment tools are very useful. The engine is just smarter and the processor performance is very much improved. Summary Centralized control of agents to prevent local users from overriding settings is very beneficial.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

This program allows my company to make sure that computers are properly managed and up to date before adding them back into the domain. This can prevent issues with computers that have outdated antivirus software being a part of the domain. This could potentially affect other machines by potentially spreading malware and other viruses to other machines in the domain.

Likelihood to Recommend

This is good for larger companies, especially ones with multiple locations. I think this would be less applicable to smaller companies with only a few machines.
