Our experience is that ISS' solution is in fact one of the easier to manage while Symantec's is more difficult. The best solution that we have seen, however, is Enterasys' Dragon product for manageability, cost, and effectiveness.

I am trying to implement an IDS and not sure on which brand to implement, currently we use Checkpoint Firewall-1 for our firewall. I have heard that real secure IDS is good for integrating with Checkpoint. My question is does anyone have any recommendations on an IDS that is easy to manage and not to pricey. What I am looking for in the IDS features is to have it e-mail or if possible send a Text Page to a cell phone or pager to alert of attacks, easy to manage, and integrate with Checkpoint if possible. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Dennis
