RE: Enterprise AV

["Nick Duda" <nduda () VistaPrint com>]

ePO 2.0+ is nice, but its very buggy. I worked with 1.0 and 2.0. I would say that the client app it communications with 
is buggy. The software constanly looses its knowledge of teh ePO server. However the options and power that ePO holds 
is nice. I just spend way to much time going to the physical PC to fix the agent problems then from remote.

Does anyone have any recent experience deploying one of the major AV tools
(McAfee ePO, Symatec Enterprise Manager, SOPHOS SAV, or other?) to an
enterprise?  I am currently evaluating several of these products and would
like to hear how others are managing.  

In particular I am concerned with, ease of deployment, usefulness of 'out of
box' reporting, multi-platform support (winA-winZ only), unexpected
problems, and of course costs.  Any experience or words of advice would be
appreciated. 

Thanks,

Jason Burzenski
