User-friendly solution with good blocking
I mainly use Security Premium as an antivirus.  Security Premium's best features are blocking, notifications, and the user interface. Security Premium's cost could be lower. I've been using Security Premium for a year. Security Premium is stable - I haven't faced any issues or bugs while using…

Comprehensive protection and seamless integration elevate security experience
A positive aspect of Trellix MOVE AntiVirus is that our biggest feature prevents users from installing USB drives. We don't have the issue of distributing viruses or transfer of files. They always track harmful files before they can enter the computer system. It protects against unnecessary use of external storage devices. It also gives protection to all the systems, on-premise or out of the premises, online, including the server. The server sends periodic updates to all the systems connected to it. We have administrative overhead as we have centralized management for Trellix MOVE AntiVirus. We can monitor all our computers that are currently using Trellix MOVE AntiVirus. We can monitor all their vital points. If they are online, offline, if they are being attacked by any viruses, anything that we need to take action upon, it will be on our centralized overview application.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"It does not take many resources during scanning."
"Flexible antivirus and antimalware software. It also provides protection against ransomware. It's flexible, easy to handle, scalable, and stable."
"Norton Security Premium is good, and it's pretty simple to install."
"The internet security was a plus, and it's pretty good."
"In general, technical support has been helpful."
"We like how it can check for issues, including files and web browsers, as it is a full-stack solution for antivirus for personal use and it is pretty effective."
"Protects me from internet vulnerability."
"The dashboard is good."
"McAfee not only provides the antivirus, but they provide an EDR kind of solution which makes it possible for there to be zero attacks."
"The solution is scalable."
"I have found McAfee MOVE AntiVirus more secure than other antivirus solutions."
"The most valuable feature is the protection it provides. It stops you from exploring certain sites. If you somehow try to mistakenly access a website that contains malware, it will stop you. This is a good feature because it prevents viruses."
"The solution is stable and protects from problematic websites."
"The customer service is very helpful."
"The features that I have found most valuable are its ability to detect and delete known malware and the DLP in particular."
"It is a very stable, very reliable solution."
 

Cons

"During scanning, sometimes, there is a heavy load on the workstation. This needs to be improved."
"They say Norton Security Premium is an all-in-one solution, but we don't know exactly what's in it, e.g. they didn't make an effort to explain the difference between a virus scan and a ransomware scan."
"It would be helpful for me if this solution works on our cloud backup data."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background. Whenever it's scanning, my laptop becomes very slow, and the worst part is you cannot do anything about it. As this product is secured by my local IT team, you cannot even kill that process, and that's what I've felt about many other antivirus solutions. I'm using McAfee for personal use, and I have the same problem."
"Occasionally when you open a ticket, there's a lack of understanding that prevents the solution from being resolved directly."
"I do not find it to be scalable."
"The only problem with Norton Antivirus is that it consumes a lot of resources like CPU and memory in the background."
"The product could always be more secure."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"We started using MOVE Antivirus because our security staff required it. And I personally haven't seen the difference because I haven't had any issues so far that McAfee addresses."
"SentinelOne provides a cloud solution that McAfee MOVE AntiVirus should as well. When all other vendors come out with new features they are implemented by all the other vendors within a few months. However, this is not the case with McAfee MOVE AntiVirus. They should update their features more often to be more competitive with the market."
"McAfee MOVE AntiVirus could improve by consolidating the dashboard of all the endpoints and proving real-time alerts."
"The performance is poor. It slows down my PC when it starts running."
"The advanced threat protection is not as good as our competitors."
"The renewal process is difficult."
"The solution could always be more secure."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Pricing for this software is competitive."
"We have a yearly license, and each license is around 20 or 30 Jordanian Dinars plus taxes."
"I don't pay for a license."
"If they could come down in price that would be good. It's not exactly the lowest."
"The licensing fee for this solution is not expensive."
"As I have been a long-time customer, I was given a fair price of $49.95 per month for the first four to six months."
"Security Premium is highly-priced."
"The solution gives the value for the money."
"The subscription for the solution is annually or every three years."
"The pricing is cheap."
"We have purchased a three-year license to use the solution and the price is reasonable."

"The licensing fees are billed on an annual basis."
