Pros I do feel like it keeps my computer safe. It gives alerts as necessary and when needed, they're easy to dismiss. Cons I sometimes don't understand the alerts or if there's actually a security threat. The population of the notifications can be annoying. Review Source JD Jessica D. Administrative Specialist Government Administration Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "A highly efficient service to ensures 24/7 protection against malwares. " March 17, 2019 5.0 Pros McAfee Endpoint Security is being the most efficient service for protection against viruses and malwares from internet. It makes sure to fully secure the servers from any harmful virus attacks. It also scans the downloading files for any potential threats. It is being available at only nominal prices. As it can provide efficient security at cheap rates, it is most suitable for small or medium level organization. Cons In all of my experience with McAfee Endpoint Security, I've found that it is not very much reliable for overall protection of devices and the internet servers. Few of the times, when McAfee have already deleted or depleted the viruses but still it infects the files and folders. Another additional thing that I would personally demand are the complete details of malware attacks so I can avoid those virus sources. Review Source Ali D. Ingeniero de operaciones Telecommunications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Not recommended for low performance machines" October 10, 2018 3.0 For more than 7 years it was the antivirus used in the company where I work. Pros It certainly has a powerful virus and malware detection engine. Cons A scan of the device can leave the machine out of operation, which can generate problems if it is a 24-hour work environment where there is no time out for this activity. Review Source Zach G. System Administrator Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Comprehensive Unified Threat Prevention " August 17, 2019 5.0 Pros McAfee is extensive. We’re still figuring out configurations and we’ve had if implemented for 2 years. It’s a beast, but protects sensitive data against opportunistic usurpers. Cons It doesn’t always behave itself on End-User machines. It can cause bugs and block programs as if they’re malware. Review Source RK Rajesh K.

It has tools that monitor the email in a safe way, it even has the possibility of adding a VirusScan own button to Outlook or Eudora with which we can activate the revision. It also has a calendar where you can see when were the last times that we scan the system. The program has a very good security, since it makes copies of the most important files of the system and stores them in a As a good antivirus, it has a tool for Internet updates. But equally the number of viruses it has in a database is relatively low. Pros I liked the tool because it performs quick and effective analysis, in addition to planning evaluations of the machine when it is not in use. It is an easy to use and very dynamic tool. Cons What I like the least is that it consumes many resources of the machine, and is not updated very frequently.

Protects our computers, what more can we ask for Cons just sort of sits on your computer and no other functionality that anyone uses. Maybe some reports or additional services Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Owner Retail Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "McAfee Endpoint Security" July 6, 2019 4.0 I can't really say i would recommend McAfee after what had happen. But i do know there is alot of people still using McAfee Endpoint Security. Believe me i really did like this program til that happen. Pros When i first started using computers more often i used McAfee endpoint security. It was ery impressive and i thought this is great program. Made sure all of the virus and hackers stay out of your hard drive and computers. I had been using this program for a long time. Cons What i least about this program is one day something had happen to my computers. Some ow the McAfee had swipe and clear out my hard drive big time. I had lost everything i had. I call the company up and asking them to restore what i had in my computers. Of course they refused to help get my computer back in the state it was before McAfee had done the damage.

CTE Coordinator Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Comfort and Reliability with McAfee" July 27, 2021 5.0 Pros I continue to use McAfee year after year. I used to switch between Norton and McAfee and have gone to using just McAfee. I do like that you can use one subscription for multiple devices which makes it very nice. Cons I always purchase it online and then reinstall as a renewal. It would be great if it would give you the option to pay the same price for a renewal instead of having to buy it cheaper first and then renewing it.

April 26, 2019 5.0 Pros McAfee distinguishes some features from other manufacturers. McAfee develops a new generation anti-malware engine that improves device performance while providing enhanced security. The effectiveness of this anti-malware engine has been proven by AV-Test and AV Comparatives tests on both computer and mobile devices. McAfee has a completely renovated interface that is compatible with both Windows and Mac-based computers. With the enhanced Wi-Fi Security, this feature determines which network is safe and provides users with a secure Wi-Fi connection. Cons At first startup of the computer, and occasionally, it uses 100% cpu. Apart from that, it works successfully.

All I can say though it has some lapses it still serves its purpose. It has the capability in detecting viruses and uninstalling it, has its end of service and the scaning system is somewhat can do. But if you have higher budget consider finding some other software for protection purposes. Pros McAfee is a good reliable software. It helps protecting my systems both pc and android. Worth it if I may say and they offer a lot of useful features in their program. You will never worry so much on your pc for it protects your file. Undetected malware. Cons It was good protection software in any devices you have. but the thing is because they maximize the features on malware detection and troubleshooting it often neglects such a small kind of malware. Where even free anti-virus softwares can be executed. And one more thing it really cost more than other same types of program.
