Heimdal Patch and Asset Management is amazing at what it does - keeping all servers and endpoints patched and up to date. It removes the hassle out of manually checking software on each server and endpoint, and frees up the IT team's time to only have to interact with software that won't update automatically.
McAffee ePolicy Orchestrator is very well suited in large environments. You can load your updates to the repository and deploy them to every node on your network. It has great reporting and auditing features. You can control your users and groups all from the System Tree. DLP is great for USB devices. You can restrict all the ports on a computer and open them up for a limited time to plug in a device. EPO is to bulky for small networks.
It has a slow mechanism when adding custom threat feeds. For example, if McAfee didn't have a signature or detection about a new virus and we try to add it to our console it is like a really big process in adding that to our available signatures.
Whenever a scan is performed, the system CPU utilization goes up 100 percent.
Installation fails due to difference in timestamp when we try to shuffle between packages.
McAfee support is definitely GREAT! It is one of the best technical support on a business level. GOLD support is recommended to business. Their website is easy and quick to create a ticket. Their technical team usually responds right away with an email or call. Via call and web they provide a full and complete support until the issue is resolved. The best, most of the time they explain in detail what is the issue, the reason and how to resolve it.
We assessed both ManageEngine and Qualys (specifically their patch management solution) against Heimdal Patch and Asset Management. Qualys was an outlier in terms of cost and felt complex for setup at the time (I believe this has now improved) when compared to both alternate solutions. When considering our patch solution we also wanted a product that could integrate additional features (Spam filtering, endpoint protection, remote desktop support) under "a pane of glass". Heimdal Patch and Asset Management seemed to cover this off within the best interface at a competitive price for each additional solution.
McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator really seemed to have all the best pieces in one platform and the network admin and asst. network admin both had previous experience with the product. The others tend to focus more on singular aspects, whereas McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator has data loss prevention, encryption, anti-virus and other functionality and the excel on each of those points equally.
As with most things the price of products goes up and more-so if your business is growing.
We've been able to provide auditors with tangible evidence that our network is protected because of the reporting McAfee ePO provides. Auditors like McAfee because it's been around almost forever and is a mature product.
Being a mature product, though, it's very much set in the way it does things and as such there's not a whole lot of innovation.
