We use Symantec Enterprise for antivirus, backups and system images for disaster recovery. We use all three products listed across our global corporation for servers and Symantec Endpoint Protection for workstations.
These products address three key business problems:
1) Having the same antivirus software installed across all devices
2) Having daily and weekly backups of servers at every remote site (600+ sites)
3) Having the same product family our engineers are already familiar for our disaster recovery solution

- Symantec Enterprise Endpoint Protection is a solid antivirus client. It has protected our organization from hundreds of disastrous infections
- Symantec Enterprise Backup Exec has made backing up our remote sites and managing them effortless
- Symantec Enterprise System Recovery has allowed us to take system images and stand them up quickly at our DR site
- Symantec Endpoint Protection could have an easier to use reporting module. It is not intuitive at all to use
- Symantec Backup Exec could have better pricing on extra options
- Symantec Enterprise could have a better centralized management server option
- Implementing Symantec Enterprise has had a huge, positive impact on our business objectives by giving our business recovery options that enable us to rebuild any remote server in a couple of hours. Versus having to rebuild them from the ground up which takes 4-6 hours.
- Implementing Symantec Enterprise has allowed us to have a quicker turnaround with DR tests for physical servers. Using their product has cut the DR test time in half!
- Implementing Symantec Enterprise has kept our regional virus outbreaks to 0.
- Viruses are quarantined instantly whenever infections are copied to one of the hundreds of File Servers in our region.
We acquired servers from another company through an acquisition that had McAfee installed. It was difficult to manage any of the clients connected and the management server itself had to be restarted on a daily basis. I am aware of an alternative product known as Trend Micro, but I do not have any experience in the using the product or how to manage it in a enterprise environment.

Enterprise Vault, as complex as an enterprise.
It is used by my entire enterprise for email archival and compliance reasons. It has a twofold purpose, to keep mailbox sizes down and to keep a copy of messages for compliance requirements and retention.
- Single instance storage is an important feature. Despite the cost of storage going down commercially, data center storage is still rather costly and email has exploded in its sizes across the board. Microsoft has done away with single instance storage in their products despite the fact that email is commonly sent to multiples and groups of people.
- Giving structure to email is what Enterprise Vault does. Since email has an unstructured database, structure generally helps for faster searches and indexing. With a well tuned EV system, excellent and complex searches can be obtained.
- Symantec has always provided excellent Technical support to their EV product. I have always been pleased with their support when I have been deeply perplexed by an issue.
- Enterprise Vault is a complex product and requires good administrative support. This can be tough for short staffed companies needing a system that is more "setup and forget" while working other other IT systems. I wish EV was a bit more easy to administer.
- Be careful about the Vault Store choices you make. There are some proprietary storage systems that EV supports that modifies they way items are stored. (like, Hitachi Streamer Storage, HCP). If you ever need to migrate away from one storage system to another - do not use proprietary formatted vault storage systems. If you ask me, Symantec should not certify any storage system that uses a proprietary format.
- Quicker access and support for eDiscovery requests on email from Legal dept.
- Difficult to maintain without more dedicated time to support the system.
