SCEP is the easiest product to successfully manage, and of course you have already paid for it (not cheap... its actually horribly expensive... but you've already paid for it).
While Kaspersky may have incrementally higher detection rates, the conversation really needs to be centered around whether or not Kaspersky is so much better that it warrants paying for two antivirus products. With almost every customer I've worked with, the business decision has been to go with SCEP and I have yet to see an unhappy customer.

Kaspersky has had great detection rates for us and I'd hate to go with something that's just okay.

One thing I don't like is no way to see active file scans like you can in McAfee but no complaints at all. Love the product and easy of management and rollout.

Works as well if not better than the Symantec.

How does it compare with other anti-virus products? I'm curious to see if it's worth implementing and moving away from other anti-virus products. Nick Scott
