Trellix MOVE AntiVirus Reviews

The primary use case of this solution is for the general protection of the device.

My usage is fairly secure in terms of how I use it and where I access it from.

I haven't been faced with any issues.

I haven't been exposed to any major threats.

There have never been any issues in terms of security, so it's assumed that McAfee is doing its job well.

I have been using McAfee since I purchased my first laptop. It's been a few years.

It's stable. I have been using it for many years and haven't faced any issues with stability.

I have not contacted technical support. My dealer is in contact with them for me.

My equipment dealer completed the installation.

There is a license. There is a subscription fee that you have to pay for.

It could be cheaper, but anybody would like a good product at a lesser price.

Over the years it has become expensive but that is the norm. I have had it for so many years now, I don't really think of changing it.

Of course, I would recommend this solution to others. Many people already do and several of my friends or family already have it. My family, and friends circle, have been using it for a long time.

My requirements are not any different. I will continue to use this solution.

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

The software is dependent on the operating system of the computer. In some cases, the virus does not get cleaned completely. Regular updates on the status of the virus that may not have been cleaned entirely would help.

I would like to see more emphasis on cybersecurity in the next release.

I have been using McAfee MOVE Antivirus for more than 10 years.

The solution is stable.

The technical support is good. They are fast to respond and they have weekend support.

We previously used an antivirus software called Symantec, but we switched because it took a while to get customer support feedback.

The software was easy to install and took about 5 to 10 minutes to setup, but the configuration needed to be setup to prevent crashing our system.

The solution is not expensive.

We haven't had any problems with this antivirus software.

We usually use this solution for protecting the endpoints. It is deployed centrally on all corporate workstations and laptops in my organization.

It can be set up easily and then connected with the server to get the latest updates.

This solution is okay for users who are just office personnel. Developers or users who heavily use their laptops complain that it really slows down their laptops. Using this solution can be a big challenge from the performance perspective if you need a productive system that locally runs multiple VMs.

I have been using this solution for the last five years. It's deployed on all laptops in my organization.

It is stable.

We have approximately 8,000 users.

I don't have any issues.

The initial setup is easy. It may be a part of our golden image approach. 

I would not recommend it, but I also do not complain too much about using this solution. 

I would rate McAfee MOVE AntiVirus an eight out of ten. Its performance needs to be improved.

We run it across the organization for protecting the individual work locations and workstations. It could be a laptop, desktop, or server. A client version of McAfee End Point Security is installed on each and every desktop or laptop.

It completely monitors all the traffic and downloads. It also scans the files that are configured to be scanned. For example, any audio files, MOV files, or large files that we download. All such files will go through the McAfee MOVE AntiVirus to ensure that the virus is not getting into our network and systems.

The good part of this solution is that it protects the systems from malware etc. It also has a good user interface.

Sometimes, the updates don't happen successfully. The updates start, but they are not completed. Let's say there is a process that runs on the server-side every night, and it pushes the updates. Sometimes, these updates fail. I'm not sure whether it is a McAfee's problem or an internal problem with our systems. 

If this is really an issue with McAfee MOVE AntiVirus, McAfee can work on it and improve it in the next release. If it is an internal issue, I need to figure out why it is happening within the organization. We may need to take some technical support from McAfee to see what the problem is and then we need to get it fixed. At this point in time, all I know is that it happens sometimes.

We have been using this solution in our organization for the last two years. 

It is scalable for now. Currently, around 200 users are using it. Our organization is growing, and we're not getting any scalability issues at this point in time. 

I have never heard of any issues with technical support. That means technical support is good. If something comes to my notice or I have to get involved, then there is a problem.

The initial setup is straightforward. It is good.

We have only one team member who takes care of the implementation, which is kind of a scheduled job. Whenever we set up the environment for a particular user, this is a mandatory software that we install. This is the protocol that we follow across the organization for new configurations. 

After this software is set up, it is updated with push updates via servers. It's all automatic. So, we don't need too many resources to take care of the implementation, unless there is a problem that needs to be looked into.

I would definitely recommend McAfee MOVE AntiVirus to others. As of now, I don't see any problem. I haven't got a complete hold of what is happening over here. Maybe the updates are finding that we don't have any virus in the system. So, it's definitely satisfactory.

I would rate McAfee MOVE AntiVirus a seven out of ten. 

We use McAfee MOVE AntiVirus for a number of things - the normal endpoint firewall, DLP, solidcore, and more. We have a solution that is at the server. Then we have super agents at the branches, because we are a bank. We use McAfee Data Exchange Layer. We use also use McAfee Endpoint Security. We have all the models that come under McAfee Endpoint Security.

The features that I have found most valuable are its ability to detect and delete known malware and the DLP in particular - that's to protect data loss to USB devices.

We are currently doing a project where we need assistance on the File Integrity Monitoring feature for McAfee as well as the ability to do classification of data. That feature is there for data protection. We need help to implement it properly.

They could improve the monitoring and classification of the data features.

Additionally, I want to experience the EDR of McAfee. Basically, EDR is the most potent threat now, that's the major concern for a lot of people. This is what is called the file-less attacks. Processes that run in memory, traditional antivirus software are not able to detect that. So the EDR feature has been made to provide the defense mechanism for the endpoint. Those processes can be stopped from running in memory once they are seen as malicious. That's what I understand EDR does. So I want to experience the EDR feature for McAfee to see how that compares with what we are currently using.

We have been using McAfee for more than 10 years. 

We have a local vendor that supports us.

The product is stable. It has worked for us over the years.

As I mentioned, we have this architecture of super agents across network branches. That's what we have done to ensure that, with respect to boundary constraints, only super agents pick up updates from the head office and distribute to the branches.

As a matter of fact, we've only done the deployment to a Microsoft environment. None for Linux or Unix. We haven't done any McAfee for Linux or Unix.

We can still improve on scalability. In fact, some of these things, also depend on other factors and not necessarily on the product. It's very important to put this thing in perspective. The operating environment challenges can also affect how scalable things can be. It's not necessary on the product.

I don't blame the scalability on the product, I am also looking at the operating environment.

I would rate the scalability a six or seven.

We are quite satisfied with customer support. We had a challenge about two years ago when we were not getting enough support. But the partner has been able to resolve that now.

We do have other anti-malware tools. That's because of the decision we made some time ago for file-less attack scenarios. Because we didn't have McAfee's EDR feature at the time we had to go for another product, specifically for EDR. We are thinking of evaluating EDR for McAfee sometime in the future to see whether we can consolidate our endpoint protection with only McAfee. So there's room for McAfee to evaluate EDR. That's the only feature that we don't have. 

In the past we tried ESET. I will say that McAfee happens to be a better product for us. Based on experience, if I'm comparing McAfee to ESET, I prefer McAfee. 

McAfee is not that easy, you need to be trained. But because we have an agreement with the vendor that supports us, they provide technical support and assistance to us anytime we need help for any kind of deployment. That's the arrangement that we have.

Deployment took about a month or so.

Going forward, we are trying to convince the vendor to give our in-house staff training to build some level of competence, which hasn't happened yet. That will be one of our medium-term or short-term goals.

We had different experiences. We have other challenges that affect our ability to deploy, which are internal challenges. Typically, deploying the solution should not be that difficult. It's all about getting the right resources to get a deployment done. It's not much of a big deal. It's all about our own internal challenges that we have to overcome.

McAfee is known to be one of the best anti-malware products out there. We are aware of what's happening in the industry.

The only advice I would give is to ensure there's a proper business arrangement in terms of the support. If there is no support from the vendor deploying the solution, then they must enforce training and knowledge transfer during the project implementation period so that there can be in-house support. Otherwise, they should have a kind of agreement that can confirm that the vendors can support them after deploying the solution.

On a scale of one to ten, I would rate McAfee MOVE AntiVirus an eight. 

We have about 100 users in our company and we are customers of McAfee. 

The interface is the most valuable feature - it works very well. 

I'm happy with the solution but the pricing could be improved, it's very expensive. 

I've been using this solution for about six years. 

The solution is stable.

The solution is scalable.

I haven't had any issues with technical support. 

The initial setup was straightforward and took a short amount of time. 

I would rate this product an eight out of 10. 

The primary use case of this solution is to distribute endpoints to our clients for their networks.

The most valuable features are the integration with different modules like the DLP.

It's a complete endpoint and you can extend the endpoint using additional modules. This is at times useful for customers with a lot of different data that they don't want to lose, so they integrate it with a DLP module to check the USB drivers and USB mass storage as an example.

The advanced threat protection is not as good as the competitors.

They are not as fast as the other competitors in detecting new threats. They can be anywhere from half a day to a day behind the other solutions before detecting the threat.

The admin interface is very old. 

In the next release, they could refresh the GUI. It would be appreciated.

I have been using this solution for two years.

This solution is stable.

It works with no problem at all.

At present, we have not scaled this solution as our clients are not large enough with only two hundred and fifty clients.

The technical support is not the best on the market, but it's not bad.

It can be difficult to speak to them. The last time that we had an issue they responded in a couple of hours and we received the file the next business day. It could have been faster.

At the present time, they are working well.

We did not evaluate other solutions.

I would rate this solution a seven out of ten.

I have been using this solution for six months. We use the private on-prem deployment model. Our primary use case is for clients who have big environments. For VDIs it's a nightmare to install security software to all of the VMs. It's a bottleneck for resource consumption and highers the data consumption costs. For example, let's say we have 1,000 VMs and we want to scan all of them with an agent-based solution, it eats up a lot of resources. A company offers agentless solutions, they prepare a VM and they scan the VMs without installing an agent. That VM will take care of the scan. McAfee MOVE minimizes a lot of the overhead. 

Sophos only provides signature-based scanning, a basic antivirus. It is not enough for an advanced attack or advanced threat. It's weak. McAfee can integrate with the existing fabric. I really like this aspect. It enables all of the security parts to talk to each other. McAfee synchronizes security across the security fabric. They cross communicate. This is one aspect that is a huge gap with other security products. McAfee minimizes the threats.

They could try to introduce advanced threat detection. This could be a huge improvement because some customers don't want to buy the entire McAfee product. It should product from unknown threats as well. 

I would like to ability to mitigate advanced threats. It should be a bit stronger. 

It's fairly stable. It's used a lot. 

It's pretty scalable. It has a module architecture. 

Their technical support is generally responsive and has good resolutions for issues. They respond quickly. 

I am very familiar with Sophos.

The initial setup complexity will depend on your deployment model. There is an agent-based or a non-agent based deployment with integrates with VMware NSX. 

The deployment can take around an hour and configuring it also doesn't take much time. Any agent-based solution can take some time. The non-agent based one will only take a few hours. It really varies on the environment. 

Take a look at the other McAfee products. It integrates with other products and vendors which is unique to other vendors. No vendor is perfect in security and no vendor can provide a solution to all security problems. Having this ability is revolutionary. It enables you to combine the best of each vendor. McAfee is the way to go for threat intelligence. 

I would rate McAfee MOVE an eight out of ten.
