"It has helped us meet CTI requirements. Some employees accidentally shared information and it was able to block that information. That is one of the biggest benefits we have seen from this tool."
"The built-in rules, templates, and content classifiers are among the most valuable features. Some of the built-in patterns are good places to get started with. Along with the phrases, they are helpful in putting together policies and fine-tuning our policies."
"The ease of configuration was probably one of its biggest selling points."
"One of the most valuable features is being able to see file movement, where files are going. Every week we review the files. It can identify software codes, so we code files and we know where they're going and who's doing what. It gives us visibility."
"Forcepoint's data visibility is the most valuable feature."
"Forcepoint DLP's most valuable feature is that it provides complete end-to-end security."
"Our organization's intellectual property is not misused or extracted without permission."
"The best part is management in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator."
"You have to have some experience, however, it's pretty simple to understand."
"The most valuable features of McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator are the easy-to-use console, and lots of reports, such as customized reports and inventory reports. Additionally, overall the centralized management is very good where you can see the compliance levels and inventory."
"The central manager policy means we have almost all client modules in one solution."
"The security is a key feature and the console is very user friendly."
"The DLP feature in McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator is good."
"McAfee ePolicy Orchestrator's performance is good."
"We get fewer false positives than with other solutions."
"The product is good, but the biggest issue is needing direct support from Forcepoint."
"The tool needs to integrate data classification."
"When you automatically try to upgrade the agent it causes problems."
"Lacks the ability to control the USB port devices so that content coming out of the port is blocked."
"They can improve a bit in the OCR category. The OCR deployment could be simplified. Right now, you have to set up a separate server to manage all the data going through the network, especially the images. Forcepoint could better integrate the OCR component with central management."
"There's zero Forcepoint presence in West Africa. Customers typically like having these things close to them. It would help if they had a presence here. Right now, Forcepoint West Africa has been administered from South Africa. Because of this, customers can't access premium support in our region."
"The price could be reduced to be more cost, effective."
"The deployment can be difficult."
"The Virtual Patching feature needs to be improved."
"We would like to see more integration with different platforms and extend this to other platforms. We are migrating to the cloud and want to extend it from our on-premises setup to the cloud."
"The detection aspect should be improved so that signatures are updated more quickly."
"While there are bugs and a few functionality issues, it is just a matter of raising them with the support team. However, support is part of the problem as well. You want everything to be seamless in a perfect world, but the support is spread across different countries. They have Level 1, 2, and 3. Level 1 is most likely in a developing country. They don't provide the best service."
"As for improvements, I think that putting everything on a cloud and one console would be a great idea and would be useful for customers."
"There are some issues relating to the automation of reports. That's why I wanted the DLP reports. There are some problems in this area. Sometimes it does not work even though all the configuration words are right. There are also some problems with automatic updates."
"There needs to be support for Mac computers. Currently, McAfee does not work on iOS."
"There are some issues we are having with updating our Windows server. So we need to contact support or access our support portal."
