Little early for me to give a Yea or Nay as I'm stll in the process of rolling it out to all desktops (formerly used OfficeScan). I've had to call support on a few issues. Here's what I've found (iirc): 1. User runs a client prg (we Meditech c/s) on her pc to d/l data from server to another server: with active protection on, it slows way down. Sunbelt still looking into that. 2. At this time, you can't add to Allow list from console and have it move to all installed clients/agents. Supposed to be fixed sometime this month. 3. Another user running Picis OR Manager has his prg slow down with AP running; 4. Vipre was blocking javaw.exe! That one irritated me as there's no way that should be blocked. However, I instructed users on how to allow it. 5. It thought an index process for my Google Desktop was 'known bad.' I just added it to the allow list. OTOH, 1. Impact on systems was smaller than OfficeScan RE: cpu and ram usage. 2. Screen and report functions are vastly improved over CounterSpy 2.0. 3. Since it's a combined anti-virus and anti-spyware, no need to purchase separate products. 4. I think it's much easier to work with compared to OfficeScan. Setting up policies is a snap and very configurable. 5. Cost was less, too. That's my impressions so far. Hopefully a year from now I'll be happy I switched to Vipre.

Is there any reason not to change? NOD323 has worked very well for me, so why switch? Well the $$ are very attractive but if there is a problem it's not worth the switch!
