I agree totally! For my own biz I went from Trend SMB to Vipre, I'm hoping this Worry-Free stuff is better on the anti-spam than CSM for locations that are still on Trend.
I'd love to know of some "bad sites" for testing the Anti-everything software. Grab a VM, load AV, isolate from the network, and surf the bad sites, and see what happens.

I have GFI 11 in front and when that went down one time...man the complaints.

Client piece is also very similar, but has additional options when right-clicked. Also, once you upgrade the server, the clients auto-upgrade themselves w/out any interaction from you – very slick actually. It was about as painless as it could get! I was very impressed, actually. Ease of use they do have nailed down pretty well. You also know about their vulnerability scanner than can also auto-install to unprotected systems? That’s been there since (Sorry Stu, their license doesn’t expire anytime soon…).

Upgrading from 3.x is free (if at 3.0 you need to got to 3.5 then worry-free) http://www.worryfree.com/pr/tm/en-us/sbiz/wfbs/default.aspx I just upgraded a client last night and was super-easy, several new features I haven’t had time to really check into yet.

I like that it has AV, anti-spam, and a firewall included. However the admin console isn't great and the anti-spam does not have much granularity. What other products have both AV and firewall included (other than Symantec and McAfee)? Thanks, Krishna Reddy IT Manager Nucomm, Inc.
