Mcafee Sucks!

[anything I don't mind]

Man I hate mcafee so much at this point.

I tried to convince the office manager to go with sophos or another solution but he did not want to.

So he went out and purchase the new mcafee end point advanced and wants me to setup the web filtering.

It just does not work, completely ineffective and their support is a joke.

It says on their website that it supports chrome and firefox and IE, but the chrome and firefox extensions do not work with the enterprise console. Mcafee just lie to sell products and do not offer working software.

The web blocking is also pretty hopeless. Just want to warn people against wasting money on mcafee and if anyone has managed to set up the site advisor enterprise with web reporting please let me know how you managed because the documentation as you would guess is useless and support do not even know their products.

If i have to spend any more time looking at that waste of time epo interface i might just find another job.

mcafee site advisor is one of the worst products i have ever come across.

Yea we implemented sophos at another site and it worked. I was amazed, did not slow pcs down, the interface was great and easy to set up, it even started blocking malicious websites out of the box without any additional configuration or browser plugins. The only issue we have with that, which we are still lookin in to is why it won't install on some clients. But overall excellent.

Oh man this is the worst ever. I hate mcafee even more now, i did not even think that was possible. Non of their software works correctly.

Now the client wants to move on to the Site advisor enterprise BETA 3.5 because the 3.0 does not support common browsers as advertised. But now this beta product is atrocious. I rolled it out and it blocked access to all websites, even google. hahah. So i had to disable it immediately. I just put my hands up and i feel like saying, should have listened to me before spending £2600 on bs software.

Now he wants me to contact support about these problems and raise faults in the beta, i am going to refuse this bs.
