But, I heard it discussed on the Security Now podcast: eEye Digital Security. http://www.eeye.com/ Their website lists a reasonably impressive list of big-name clients. Of course, I have no idea how extensively these big names actually use this product (lab trail vs. whole enterprise, for instance). Aaron: I haven’t tried this one myself.

I gave AVG's corporate version a whirl a few months back, and while the AV scanner wasn't as resource-hungry as webroot seems, the administration console left a lot to be desired so it was a no-go for AVG. ah, i see… i’m charged with the task of finding a replacement or our current AV solution (a quite-dated version of symantec). i’m trying a trial install of webroot’s corporate solution, and while the administration console works very well, as does the remote installation of clients (both of which are very important to me), the virus scan process itself seems to bring the PC that it is scanning to it’s knees.

I will say that the Symantec Anti-Virus (SAV) Enterprise Edition seems "lighter" than the "take all my RAM and CPU processing and run" consumer version (though not by much). I tend to add a non-resident AV scanner like ClamWin (Open Source) to try to get a few more percentage points of AV coverage on both my work and home systems though.
