Re: Centrally managed antivirus

Thanks Lukas.

Buying 5 licenses _initially_ is no big deal, as long as we can buy them
singly after that.

When you speak of administering via Group Policy, this means the PCs/servers
must be joined to the domain, correct? Our sales reps laptops have never
been joined to the domain. Those laptops will soon be Win7 Home Premium
which I don't think _can_ be joined to a domain. In any case, as long as
there is a central admin server, there's a way around that.

with central admin.

We're currently using Forefront Client Security.

From a licensing perspective: Minimum order quantity 5 for the first
order, 1 for later orders. Orders to the same contract are prorated.
Compared to other solutions, it's JUST a virus/spyware scanner. For
me, this is an advantage. If you're using additional options in your
product, this might be a disadvantage.

Can be administrated centrally using Group Policy, but there's also a
central admin server, but this is meant for larger installations (more
than 100 Nodes)

We've used McAfee Enterprise AntiVirus with ePO before - FCS has a lot
less issues, is cheaper and performs better.
