In my experience, if you enable the smart scan features in Worry Free it will suck. Too much overhead on the server, slowness on the clients when getting new definitions and eventually, gigs and gigs of definition files on the server that trend doesn't delete on a timely manner.

Weird, no issue in the environment I support when I upgraded them. Small environment though, 55 systems, fairly “clean” clients and just two sites.

Would avoid Tren Worry Free like the plague.

It killed (literally stopped servers and clients talking, due to scan overload, and resource hogging) 4 networks when it was upgraded from 5 to 6,

Had to remove it and install vipre which made very angry clients very happy

Bla bla, our def files are I the cloud, bla bla, something about virtualization density, bla bla cloud, bla bla bla.

Of the different AV product I have worked with, all of them allow for an alternate server location for def updates if a local store isn’t available. I’m not sure what they’re trying to sell, but they like saying /cloud/ over and over. J

It’s 3:43 long. Their WorryFree product does this as well and seems to work OK at the client of 55 machines that has it (it gives you the option to update from the local Trend machine or from Trend’s servers).

Seems to me they’re using “cloud” to mean “clients update from us and not your local server”. Does anyone get a different read?
