[Technical] Antivirus options

[Greg Neil (Mr)]

We are currently evaluating Sophos Enterprise Console, as we need to manage installs and updates to 500+ laptops as well as 120+ desktops. We have been extremely underwhelmed by CA eTrust and it's inability to stop infections or detect a growing range of trojans. Sophos also allows for the management of p2p, IM and other applications while they on the network, although to what degree and at what cost we are still looking into. Whether or not we settle on Sophos, we will be phasing CA out in favour of something that actually works.

Hi all,

      Our CA eTrust AV maintenance is up soon and I was wondering if
anyone had a different product they used that they would recommend that
I might compare with.

 

 

Thanks,

James
