We have SEP because the larger gov. organization we are a part of has standardized on it, and thus has a contract that makes the price attractive.
I haven't had much success trying to convince them otherwise. -sc From: Ken Schaefer [mailto:k...@adopenstatic.com] Sent: Sunday, May 09, 2010 4:19 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: Anyone leaving their current AV and returning back to Symantec enterprise? We're using SEP because we're implementing NAC and it also does AV, firewall etc. We also have to have a separate desktop security product to our server security product.

We are running SAV because we are a Symantec Partner, therefore I assume we get it for free. But, if I had the decision I would switch to VIPRE in a flash. I have nothing against Symantec, in fact they have a strong portfolio of solutions. However, their Antivirus / Endpoint Protection is unwieldy, badly designed and above all a bloated resource drainer. I would be very surprised if anyone here came out strongly in favour of SAV, but I would be very interested to hear if anyone has positive experiences. Always want to be open minded.
