We have had both...we ditched McAfee as fast as humanly possible...caused nothing but problems. We currently use Symantec's NAV CE (latest edition) for all our servers and workstations, NAVMSE for the Exchange mailbox servers and the NAV Gateway product for http/ftp traffic.
We have had NO problems! NAV combined with SMS makes it VERY easy to have the virus .dat updates being pushed out to all your servers and workstations within minutes of the updates coming out. We have never had any problems with how fast Symantec puts out their updates. BTW...we have not had a single infection in this company, since before the Melissa virus.

If you are talking from an Administrative view I love McAfee Groupshield. The interface is far better to deal with and they get their DAT files out pretty quickly. I will admit that Trend and Sophos seem to be a bit quicker, but so far Groupshield has kept me safe. I agree with you about NAVMSE. It can be difficult to work with in (especially in terms of adding file extension blocks quickly). Hope this helps.
