Jeff,

We have been using Sophos for years and are very happy with it. It does
central management, etc. We have around 250 PC's and 5 servers.

All,

We're a small company (@20 PCs and servers) and are currently using
Symantec
Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition for our AV protection.  It is
protecting us well and saves me a lot of admin time, but I'm looking for
something different.

The reason is Symantec is a PITA to deal with.  1) You have to buy at
least
5 licenses at a time when we'd like to buy 1 at a time, and 2) When you
do
buy new licenses, you can't prorate them such that all licenses are
renewed
at the same time.

What are the rest of you using for this?  I'm sure there have to be
others
with central admin.

Thanks.
