recently we did an audit of many different virus scanners and for us kersperskey came out top (above nod32, symantic, mcafee, avg and a few others i cant remeber) our criteria included, multi OS support (solaris (SPARC), redhat and windows), centrel management and ease of management; however since it has been rolled out we have had a lot of problems. lots of updates have needed reboots. scanns have created dumps which wrote of Gb's of data (efectivly DOSing the server), network performace hits and as for my desktop well i had to disable it. its now got to the stage where the first port of blame is the virus scanner not networks and thats saying something. not that i have any thing against kerspersky on paper it seemed like the best one and we have now started to iron out the bugs to get it working as i would hope. but if i had a second chance i would go for nod32.
