McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator Reviews

The solution's best part is that it is very easy to manage McAfee Agent.

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator needs to upgrade its technology since the solution's EDR function is not good compared to other vendors in the market.

I use McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator, and my experience with it has been good. Though I am not using it full-fledged, I know the solution's capabilities. So, I work in a security integrator company that sells OEMs for endpoint security. So, we don't just sell McAfee, but also other solutions. My company has a partnership with McAfee.

The solution's stability is good, and so I rate its stability a seven out of ten.

The solution's scalability is good. So, I rate its scalability an eight out of ten.

Technical products are bound to get stuck due to the technical processes involved. Sometimes, certain new issues crop up in the solution, and even the vendor does not know about it. Owing to the aforementioned reasons, I rate the technical support a seven out of ten.

Neutral

I rate the solution's initial setup a five out of ten since it was neither easy nor difficult.

I rate the solution a six and a half out of ten.

We use McAfee to detect patterns. For example, if we detect credit cards, we can use the advanced pattern. 

To maintain the solution, we require two individuals that are knowledgeable in SQL and DLP.

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator has a built-in advanced pattern, which is very useful because it can detect any pattern.

McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator requires a lot of manual work. For example, if you use Symantec DLP, only one policy is needed, and you can apply it to all of the channels that are an endpoint, like the web or email. With McAfee, you need to create separate rules for all of those channels. One policy for email, one policy for web, and so on. I would like to see McAfee reduce the amount of manual work required.

In the next release, I would like to see an integration with third-party solutions for classification. We find that implementation is limited for some products. I would like an open API that we can integrate with other classification tools. 

I have been using McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator for two months.

The stability of McAfee is user-friendly and stable.

The solution is scalable. You can add and remove servers as required.

The initial setup was straightforward, not complex.

The implementation was done by me within a test environment. 

We are using a free trial version of McAfee ePolicy.

I would rate this solution a nine out of ten.

The use case differs based on each customer. I work with customers and try to understand their requirements, use cases, security challenges, and then I work on the project plan or design documentation so that I can help them configure their product. 

As for improvements, I think that putting everything on a cloud and one console would be a great idea and would be useful for customers. 

I have been working with McAfee for about two years now. 

This solution is stable. 

This solution is scalable. 

McAfee's technical support is actually fine. 

The installation process is straightforward. 

I don't have much exposure to other similar products, like Netskope or Palo Alto, but overall, looking at security, I would give this solution a seven out of ten. I recommend this solution to others.
