AVG - so so lah... not bad .. won't slow down ur PC... but u might need a backup antivirus cos not all virus can be detected...

Hi Nightfalls,

Thanks for your reply. May I know what headache configuration stuff avast have? 

Hi All,

Good Day 

May I know which of the below Licenses Anti-virus are the best for Small and Medium Business? 

1) AVG Internet Security Network Edition
2) AVG Anti-Virus Network Edition
3) avast! 4 Enterprise Suite

I hope some of sifu here could give me some opinion. I need to help my company to search for the best antivirus solution.
I appreciate for any opinion given to me.

Thanks in advanced.

Hi,
I'm just curious,the choices you have are very limited. Is there a reason for it? Is it affordability/performance/functionality of the Enterprise suite?

Pricing example
Imagine your company is using 30 workstations with Windows XP, 4 Windows 2003 Servers with Exchange, ISA, SharePoint Servers installed, and 10 PDA's. Traditionally, you'd need to purchase 30 licenses of avast! Professional Edition, 4 licenses of avast! Server Edition and all the plugins, 30 mailbox licenses of avast! Linux Servers and 10 licenses of avast! for PDA.

That is, for a 1-year contract, you'd pay for

30 avast! Professional Edition (30 x $20.95 = $628,50)
4 avast! Server Editions (4 x $209 = $836.00)
30 avast! Exchange Server Editions (30 x $22.95 = $688.50)
30 avast! ISA Server Editions (30 x $12.95 = $388.50)
30 avast! SharePoint Server Editions (30 x $12.95 = $388.50)
10 avast! for PDA (10 x $11.95 = $119.50)
i.e., your total would be $3049.50.

If you take the Suite approach, however, you'll simply pay for 34 licenses of the Enterprise Suite, that is 34 x $57.95 = $1970.30. This is a $1079 (35%) saving!

well the boss has already invested on a very good anti-virus. Human anti virus called johnnyc2pi. Any virus attack the PC, definitely johnnyc2pi will be the first to protect the computer.

My 2 cents worth: Please do not take cost as a benchmark for Security Software. Tell your boss that saving $200 now might be like wasting 1-2 whole days just recovering data after a serious virus attack.

No point getting some slightly cheap option, and yet risking being attack by malware. I rather spent an additional $500, and really be safe.

Hope this can help you clear the dust. Cheers!

I am not very sure about SMB Suite AV pricing. But, I can say these few options would be ok.

1. Kaspersky
2. NOD32
3. AntiVir

Avast is fine. But purely looking at AVG might not be a very good idea.

Cheers!
