It doesn't much matter what you run on the rest of the Windows machines - pick what you like, preferable with a management console you like, and what you can get a good price on - Norton, McAfee, Panda, Trend. AVG, whatever. AFAICT, they are all about the same. I've had a couple of rather large bones to pick with McAfee in the past, but know several people that are quite happy with them.
My only serious preference in AV software is for Exchange mail servers. You really need to have Trend on your Exchange server, if you have one.

Does anyone have any recent experience deploying one of the major AV tools (McAfee ePO, Symatec Enterprise Manager, SOPHOS SAV, or other?) to an enterprise? I am currently evaluating several of these products and wouldlike to hear how others are managing.In particular I am concerned with, ease of deployment, usefulness of 'out of box' reporting, multi-platform support (winA-winZ only), unexpected problems, and of course costs. Any experience or words of advice would be appreciated.
