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.

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.
