Ashford Asante - PeerSpot reviewer
Centralized system, less stress on the network and runs smoothly
It functions like a standard antivirus – I scan, I get reports... it gets the job done as I configure it. Overall, I'm satisfied with McAfee MOVE Antivirus. I haven't experienced any compatibility issues so far. So, it also offers good integration capabilities with other tools. The quality of the reports depends on what you're looking for. They can be good, bad, or average. Overall, the reporting functionality is adequate.

Enhanced security and streamlined management drive efficient connectivity
Open source is a standard solution where you take a gray box or white box and put the software from your end. You can do programming with Ansible and make the network work in the software-defined mode, providing automation and management capabilities. I am currently working with VMware. It integrates easily with everything and can work with any system. When discussing micro-segmentation, it enhances security, providing more secure data in your data center while allowing for extra layers of security outside your data center. If you have an ACI, there is communication between locations, keeping your data secure in your data center and throughout the path it takes, such as to SD-WAN or the cloud. I work with cloud solutions including AWS, Azure, GCP, and private cloud. My overall rating for VMware NSX is 8.5 out of 10.
