Sophos has complete remote management from an admin console. We even set up
sophos to scan logins and auto install itself on domain members.

Cost is probably going to be a factor. Mcafee has a product in addition to
VirusScan that you can use to manage all hosts from a single console. It's
E-Policy Orchestrator. I don't believe Sophos has anything except
reporting. Not sure about Trend Micro. If you want to be adventurous, you
can manage it all through scripting.

I need to set up some anti-virus software for our company.  We have
about 15 people running windows, a windows 2003 file server and possibly
and exchange server, and over the next two years we will grow to around
100 employees.  Basically, I want virus software that I can manage from
one console, and will do a good job of finding viruses.  I'd prefer to
have the file server and exchange server be able to be managed by the
same console, but if not I can live with it.  I've been looking at
Norton and Panda, but am looking for some real world opinions.
