your opinions of it?  Is it worth the cost?  What good is it?  

 

Thanks much listees for your valued opinions & feedback.

I've got over 1200 desktops and 80 servers across a large WAN
deployment, so I was recommended to Client/Server/Messaging Suite
Enterprise.  How does the SMB product differ? 

 

It doesn't appear that on the e-mail side it does anything but scan POP3
traffic, so I'd need the ScanMail product separately. 

is the desktop/server the same as OfficeScan (which is part of the
Enterprise suite?

You want the Trend SMB Suite.  This is a wonderful product that allows
management of clients remotely via a web console on both clients and
servers. Download the demo and try it out. There is an Exchange version
also that we have been using for years and have been virus free thanks
to it.  The fact that it is about half to 2/3rds of the price of Mcaffee
and works better without causing a lot of cpu resources (unless it is
doing a full scan that is but all have that problem) gives it an A+ in
my book.

Never tried Trend, we've always used McAfee and they've been fine
since, well, forever!

It meets all your requirements, Groupshield works fine for virus
scanning, but we don't use its antispam side of things.. We use
Protection Pilot instead of the ePolicy Orchestrator, as we're a small
shop, and it does all the same things, just easier :)

I know some people like Sophos too, but never had a look at that
either, could be so mething else for you to look at.
