Hi Aaron

We have been running Sophos now for 6 Months and the only problem I
have had was with getting rid of out Trend installation. Of the ones
we evaluated Sophos was the only one with tools that attempt to remove
old AV installs, but Trend just won't cleanly remove without manual
intervention.

Other than that the suite works well out of the box, although we have
not yet setup the NAC and Encryption. Something they are lacking is
reporting, I have been able to get what I need with some Excel
"programming" but it is actually really aweful.

Hello List,

I am evaluating migrating to a new AV/endpoint solution for my enterprise.
We are a Microsoft/AD shop. I was hoping that the list would share their
frustrations, successes, and opinions with some of the endpoint solutions
that are currently on the market. I have listed below the features that we
may or may not utilize, ordered by their importance level.

The solutions that I am currently testing include Sophos, and ESET. Is there
anything negative that you have experienced with Sophos or ESET?

Features in Order of Importance
1.?????? AV protection
2.?????? Spyware protection
3.?????? Reporting
4.?????? Ease of policy configuration
5.?????? Firewall
6.?????? HIPS/HIDS
7.?????? Encryption
8.?????? NAC

Thanks,

Aaron
