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.

Security suite has protected individual devices from threats, while installation and network features require improvements
BIG-IP is actually the LTM, Link Load Balancer, which comes with ASM, meaning Application Security Module. It consists of multiple modules, such as ASM, SWG, and a domain DNS manager. ZoneAlarm allows defining trusted and public networks, which helps maintain security in public Wi-Fi environments. It offers comprehensive protection, securing PCs against threats. Users do not experience any system slowdowns while scanning. Harmony Browser protects all your browsing activity and is bundled with Harmony Endpoint and Harmony Connect. It provides a small but effective security layer and sometimes comes packaged with the larger Harmony suite.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Overall, the policies are good. They are easy to implement."
"The solution is scalable. There are approximately 30 users using it in my organization."
"It is a very stable, very reliable solution."
"The most beneficial aspect of McAfee MOVE AntiVirus is its compatibility. I have heard from friends that it is more adaptable than other antivirus programs, particularly for those using different operating systems, such as Mac OS. This cross-platform compatibility is a valuable feature of McAfee MOVE AntiVirus."
"We run it across the organization for protecting the individual work locations and workstations, completely monitoring all the traffic and downloads so that any audio files, MOV files, or large files we download go through McAfee MOVE AntiVirus to ensure that viruses are not getting into our network and systems."
"The antivirus aspect was great that's what we were most focused on."
"We use McAfee MOVE AntiVirus predominantly for antivirus and anti-malware protection."
"In the time that I've been using it, it hasn't crashed. It's rock-solid. So, I haven't noticed any performance issues, like using too much CPU or memory."
"It is easy to use through interfaces and easy to configure each of the customizations we created based on the characteristics that we wanted."
"The phone access scan stands out as the most valuable feature for me."
"The solution maintains reasonable scalability."
"User friendly design and interface"

Cons

"This solution requires you to deploy multiple agents for multiple jobs which is unfortunate."
"The solution needs to be more secure."
"The solution’s stability could be improved."
"This solution could be improved by faster performance. If I have other processes running, McAfee slows my laptop down."

"I would like to see integration with SharePoint."
"The interface is not so easy to use and could be improved."
"The renewal process is difficult."
"I would like it to be integrated with the Check Point centralization solution like Infinity Portal. It would be great to be able to manage it through the same website."

"Perhaps the primary area for potential enhancement is to make it faster, ensuring a more seamless experience while maintaining robust security features."
"Updating ZoneAlarm is a problem at times."
"The solution's efficiency in threat containment and overall protection needs improvement."
"ZoneAlarm should be a light application that does not take too much memory in mobile phones."
"We'd like better performance of the network equipment. There are high-speed environments where an immediate response is required."
"Currently, the client is only available for the Windows Operating System but it would be good if it were released for Mac OS as well."
