Overall Satisfaction with Symantec Enterprise

This is the most comprehensive centrally managed endpoint security solution I have used for my business. It includes a host-based intrusion protection system (HIPS), device control, anti-malware, a network IPS, and a software firewall. We don't use the firewall but from what I see it can be setup very granular. Client polices can be created, modified and removed easily from a central console. For me the convenience of remotely managing Symantec from any Internet Explorer session is a plus. You can also assign users rights for your IT staff and this feature can get very specific on what the user can do and see. The last thing I wanted to point out is Symantec tech support in my opinion is fast. I can usually get someone to work on my question or concerns with in the hour.

Being protected 360 degrees is a plus and in most cases you just install, set it and forget it.
Every year Symantec gets better when it comes to using less resources on the server or workstation it is installed on.
