Allows me to install an unlimited number of devices for antivirus and firewall capabilities
Pros and Cons
  • "The installation is quite straightforward."
  • "Overall, the solution could be better priced."
  • "I pay for the licensing on an annual basis."

What is our primary use case?

The solution provides security on my laptops vis-a-vis their use in my home by my teenage children.

The solution has antivirus capabilities for providing protection and eliminating potential threats. It also provides protection through a firewall. I use the True Key feature to store usernames and passwords and highly secure passwords can be generated automatically. 

What is most valuable?

I was looking for an agreement with which I am familiar, due to the increasing number of devices, mobile phones and tablets involved. 

What needs improvement?

Overall, the solution could be better priced. When it comes to the number of licenses which I need in relation to the number of devices that I have in my home, things could be cheaper. 

For how long have I used the solution?

I believe I have been using McAfee MOVE AntiVirus for two or three years, as I have a subscription by which all the laptops of my family are under the same contract. We have four or five laptops at home. 

Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?

Around three years ago I used Avast. 

While my current plan allows me to install an unlimited number of devices, I found the Avast licensing plan to be insufficient. 

How was the initial setup?

The installation is quite straightforward.

Taking into account the need to restart the computer, the initial installation takes five minutes. 

We have the solution installed on four devices. 

What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?

The overall pricing could be improved. 

I pay for the licensing on an annual basis. 

What other advice do I have?

I make use of the solution for personal use.

I would recommend this solution to others. 

I rate McAfee MOVE AntiVirus as an eight out of ten. 

Which deployment model are you using for this solution?

The renewal process is difficult. It could send me a notification upfront before it takes the cash out of the bank.
