I've personally still found Norton to be robust and adequate; I switched from MCAFEE a long time ago. I have subscriptions for my home based office machines, and the company I primarily work for has a corporate subscription. I've enjoyed the central update capabilities of all Symantec products (I have a few different products). I have also found for the frequency of the updates has been adequate to address the new variants that come out frequently. The script blocking capabilities has saved me a few times on various web URL's that had harmful intent (sometimes even when I deserved to be infected :)). The UnErase wizard with the Norton Protected files is also nice. I really can't speak to the management of the AV solution from an enterprise perspective - as I've not dealt with that side (Although my primary company has 5000+ employees being managed through the corporate subscription), but as a small business owner and consumer, I've been very pleased.
