Recommendation for good Server Antivirus software

[Delphard]

Without experience in Corporate/Server editions of antiviral software, need some advice. Thanks!

NOD32 is very good and has a far smaller footprint than Symantec or Sophos so it doesn't kill older PC's.

Symantec is pretty good if your clients are upto it and the rollout tools and management console are very user friendly.

Hi

we use Sophos and have no trouble with the product, plus it updates the anti virus to both servers and user machines.

We use McAfee VirusScan on servers/desktops, it's pretty good and it comes with a decent management console (ePO) for managing it in an enterprise. VirusScan includes a basic firewall and anti-spyware but we just turn this off through ePO policy, you can also buy the proper McAfee anti-spyware module that can be managed from the ePO.

Key thing if you're serious about AV though is run different AV products on you email servers/gateways than you do on your servers/desktops. No single product catches 100% of stuff, the more you have the more likely you are to detect them.

I second porkchopexpress suggestion of NOD32, by far the best and easiest I have worked with.
