We used NOD32 for about 4 years. It was/is a great product, but has some
idiosyncrasies that ticked me off a bit. The only real reason we
switched is the tech support, which was among the best, dropped to zero
n the second contract period. 

 

We switched to Vipre since we were already using Counterspy, and it is
also a good product, but also has some strange things that are somewhat
annoying, but their support is by far the best I have seen.

Steve - how long did you use NOD, and what did you switch to? How has
that process/transition been for you and your end users? How many
endpoints are you protecting?

It would have been unpopular a year ago, but support from them has
gotten so bad, we dropped them.

NO to NOD32

I know this isn't a popular point of view, but I used McAfee and ePO for
years, and they never failed me.

What do you guys like (besides Vipre, obviously! J) for
antivirus/anti-spyware/anti-malware/etc? Our AVG is coming up for
renewal in January and I'm not sure I want to renew it. I am considering
Vipre, although I thought the interface (on the home version - didn't
have a spare server to set up the Enterprise trial) was a bit "clunky"
due to having to "white list" an app in several different places. L

 

I'm also considering purchasing a bunch of licenses for Malware Bytes so
I can have that on every desktop. I'm also thinking about
F-Secure/F-Prot. I know that one of our vendors uses and recommends
Kaspersky and I have used them in the past at home.  Any others? 

 

The idea of using a Microsoft antivirus doesn't sit well with me.... Of
course there's always the argument of "they know where the security
holes are so they can protect them." But my answer to that is, "well, if
they know where the holes are, they can fix 'em and not charge me for an
antivirus product!" J
