### "McAfee Endpoint Security Review"

November 28, 2018

5.0

We use McAfee at our organization for Anti-virus protection. I also support this software, but have never used it on any of my personal devices.

Pros

The interface is easy to use and provides up to date security for web browsing and email communication.

Cons

I do not like the amount of processing power that is robbed from the CPU when running McAfee Endpoint Security. While running an active scan the PC is sometimes useless and hangs. It's also a bit expensive when looking at other solutions.

### "Simple-to-use and faster to implement"

February 12, 2023

4.0

Pros

Their Security Manager has a vast library of pre-built correlated indices, reducing the duration of time it takes to get everything up and functioning. Because actual hardware was among the areas in which we had previously moved away, the ability for ESM to be truly available like a VDI

Cons

the time's policy can fail on the endpoint due to communications failure but is not so often. Furthermore, that is very easy to use, it does the job it is made would be better if it has the feature of determining the missing critical OS updates

### "It is a good antivirus for the most common threats"

June 27, 2018

4.0

It's really been a great ally in keeping my laptop virus-free.

Pros

It has been a great help to me in keeping our team safe from the average threats on the web, and in evaluating the ongoing performance of our systems. Besides, it doesn't slow down the computer.

Cons

What bothers me most about this program is that it does not have a good system for remembering which programs and pages should be blocked and which should not, and it does not let me modify it manually either.

### "McAfee is always on guard."

December 7, 2018

5.0

Overall, it had helped us in providing splendid security to our machines.

Pros

McAfee is the name of trust and high-end security. It's very easy to set up and doesn't require any IT Skills to configure. Lots of our staff can easily configure it themselves. It gives instant reports of the threats and scanned files. The feature i like the most is its updates, McAfee is always keeping the software up to date, which helps in blocking all the new malware.

Cons

Its strict security sometimes blocks our daily use apps, and we have to manually allow them to run. Which is quite tricky for users and increase our IThelpdesk tickets.

### "McAfee, the best antivirus software"

October 1, 2018

5.0

I've had great experiences using McAfee, despite its cons it is actually one of my favorite antivirus software out there.

Pros

Easy to use, great firewall protection, virus and anti-malware scanning, programmable scanning tasks, background scanning, and the ability to tell the software to scan the computer when the user is not using are all great features only the great antivirus software can have.

Cons

High memory consumption at idle state and even more during scans.

### "The best anti-virus"

October 22, 2019

The McAfee is one of the best anti-virus that protect our data from unknown activity and it also prevents the applications activity that carries virus, spam and malware. I recommend this software to all NGOs and all big companies to stay protected with this remarkable software.

Pros

Cons

It can't clean types of virus The firewall is not that much good enough The rest I don't see any weak points in this software because it's not heavy and is not making the computer busy. It's healing the file

Reason for choosing Trellix Endpoint Security

The main reason is that it's not very heavy so the computer runs smoothly with this software.

### "An Easy Endpoint Security"

September 18, 2019

4.0

I use McAfee as secondary security for the business computer security and so far I love it as it does not exhaust my computer resources.

Pros

McAfee Endpoint Security is easy to install and setup comes with a free trial before you decide to upgrade and runs on Mac, Linux, and Windows OS.

Cons

Sometimes the McAfee Endpoint Security is bundled with third-party installations which makes it suspicious because you may end up installing McAfee even when not considering it

### "A strong antivirus to protect our devices from powerful threats."

April 14, 2019

5.0

McAfee Endpoint Security is a best tool for removing and detecting the virus to stop them from entering in our system from different website. Many effected files try to enter in our system but this suit detect the and remove them instantly. It can also scan portable devices connected with our system. Mobile version is also available and so helpful for user to keep safe my cell from various and harmful viruses.

Pros

McAfee is an Endpoint Security for our devices and provides us complete security against threats. Security Features are quite enough for protecting our several devices form attack our devices. Easy to install on all kind of devices, and provides us great security to our system. Custom and deep scan is very useful for us to scan all drives of systems and remove the virus safely. McAfee worked 24/7 and secure our system from online threats.

Cons

McAfee antivirus is good but license subscription is very tricky and expensive so it need to be more economical for us to purchase the premium version. Full system scan takes so much time to complete and also slow down our system. Automatic updates are good but it should be upgrade manually as per our needs. McAfee require a lot of memory for work and sometime system got stuck while working.

### "It's okay..."

December 10, 2019

3.0

Overall, it does it's job. I just don't like that it seems to slow my computer down at times and I have to force close it.

Pros

I like that it, of course, helps to protect my computer from viruses and such. I like that it runs continuously and that you can set it to run scans periodically.

Cons

Sometimes it slows down my computer when it's running a periodic scan and it can be difficult to get out of it. I'm not sure if there's a way to stop the periodic scans.

### "Excellent antivirus"

July 25, 2018

5.0

This is an antivirus that is really non intrusive, and for someone that is bothered by antivirus softwares constantly popping up it is one of the best options available.

Pros

Something I like a lot about mcafee is the fact that it is really silent, I value antivirus softwares if they interfere less with my work and other than the fact that the firewall can block some programs, this one is really non intrusive, while still offering great protection.

Cons

It's firewall has given us some type of issues with our licenses and it blocks our intranet comunication system, but otherwise this antivirus has work wonders for us

### "A very clunky but necessary evil."

February 26, 2018

3.0

Pros

I like that it appears to protect machines from most viruses but fails to tackle malware and adware in an efficient manner. Virus scans can often take forever, producing little to no results.

Cons

I dislike how much this software taxes the operating speed of the machine its stalled on, its user interface is anything but friendly, and it can often be difficult to tell when other third-party software conflicts with McAfee.

### "Too many alerts for Renewal and junk emails"

September 27, 2019

4.0

While I like that my laptop stays secure this software makes it harder to work some days with the numerous reminders. Enough that I sometimes cannot get the things I need to do done on time.

Pros

What I like about the software is that it works. Wild using the software I had no security issues issues with my laptop, no viruses or malware made it through keeping my laptop moving fast.

Cons

what I like least about the software is the constant reminder to purchase the full software. I don't like being hassled repetitively to spend money. They send way too many emails reminding me that my trial was going to expire, the pop ups are just as bad. One reminder a day I can understand but not 10 to 15.

### "Data Security"

February 15, 2021

5.0

It is easy to use and successfully protects us from malware and intrusions.

Pros

Firstly, it was easy to deploy in our organization and it didn't take us time to implement everything and have a secure work environment. It works seamlessly with our devices and other software that we use. It doesn't slow down our hardware demanding system but rather cleans it to have a smooth experience. It is easy to use with a self explanatory dashboard and non technical language to ensure smooth usage. It covers both data security and network security to ensure that our system is fully protected.

Cons

They need to be updating it frequently and bring in smart computer notifications that do not block content when using the computer.

### "Serves its purpose"

March 30, 2019

4.0

Good virus scan, it definitely does the job if you don't mind slowing down your computer.

Pros

McAfee serves the purpose of antivirus software. It catches everything within seconds of downloading or clicking on something suspicious. It is constantly running in the background to protect your computer and prevents you from accidentally downloading destructive virus or spyware to your computer.

Cons

The only negative thing I have to say about McAfee is that it slows down your computer significantly. It may be just because it is constantly running in the background, but it is very noticeable. If you choose to not run it in the background, then you schedule virus scans, but even this takes hours and slows things down. When I selected the options to run scheduled scans, my computer frequently became frozen forcing me to restart.

Pros

The interface is great. The customer support service is very fast and reliable. McAfee uses different technologies and achieve their final target very fast.

Cons

The tool is not very efficient with malware removal option. The tool remove infected files without showing any warning message.

McAfee Endpoint Security has a very modern and beautiful UI that makes using the software easy. I like the very low false positive rate when compared to competitors' programs. I also like the frequent updates to keep up to the newest threats.

Cons

It consumes a lot of resources, especially when performing scans. Another thing is the price. There are other solutions that come cheaper than McAfee Endpoint Security.
