I agree their AV product is solid, but I don't care for their deployment
options and the enterprise anti-spyware product is new, so time will
tell how it impacts performance.
 
Another question, which product do you run on your citrix servers
officescan or server protect?
 
Thanks,jb

        You can try  to barter a little with them to get the price down.
Be up front. Tell them I am considering you or mcaffee. Mcaffee is
offering this..can you do any better....
        Talk right to Trend, not to a sales person and have Trend talk
to your sales person.
         
        Out of all the major AV products I have used over the last 20
years(Norton, Mcafee, Trend) Trend is the ONLY one that has not caused
some kind of issue of error or slowness with the operating system at one
point or another during normal operation. (While scanning with any of
them your system slows to a crawl)  Mcaffee constantly has problems with
bad signature files and Norton is just too damn persistent with every
function that it does with the system.  Every try and uninstall Norton?
What a pain in the butt! I shouldn't have to uninstall 5 things to get
your product off my system.

                I could possibly agree it's the "best AV product" for
one reason or another, but their updated pricing that happened sometime
in 2005 makes it up to 2x as expensive as every other major product.  I
tested all the major ones, and didn't find anything about Trend
(detection, footprint, deployment, management, etc) to warranty such a
major price differential.  
                
                This was on enterprise class pricing of 500 seats and
up.  I also checked the SMB pricing (per Jim's recommendation) and that
was also almost 2x the cost.

                Jim,
                 
                Could you please elaborate on why you think it is the
best? I am not agreeing or disagreeing. Simply looking for your view
point.

                Yes, best AV product money can buy, yes.
                There is a management console for the product that lets
you push the software out.

                        I just installed the trial today. I don't like
that the included msi
                        requires a command line switch to deploy.
