+1 for Sophos.
I'm a big fan - easy deployment, easy to manage via console, catches a ton of stuff that Symantec did not and I got great pricing from our local VAR.

All products have their quirks. Would be nice to see a good feature matrix prepared by a non-vendor. McAfee ain't so crappy anymore with VSE 8.8, though we're getting too many false positives with Artemis, even at a low sensitivity level. Sophos is good on detection; it's one of the first to detect the latest round of "DHL" email malware being spammed out in great quantities at the moment.

I was pretty excited about Trend and LANDesk's Kaspersky engine...until either testing or listening to SE's describe the product. I would appreciate any and all feedback on the AV vendor you use and if you recommend them.
