With 500 workstations I would recommend Norton's AntiVirus Corporate Edition. McAfee comes in a close second.

I prefer McAfee with Norton a close second.

They both work well and I can always get a better price from McAfee than Norton

Go for McAfee software, we are using it for years happily without any major issues. My friends told me that they had mixed results with Norton.

I highly recommend Norton Anti-Virus Corporate Edition. You can configure a Norton Anti-Virus Corporate Edition as an Anti-Virus Server so as to connect all your workstations in one console for timely virus definition updates. Mc-Afee comes next.

Officescan by Trend Micro.It's cheaper, easier to deploy and manage. Download the trial from trendmicro and you can have it deployed in a couple of hours on all 500 pc's. It will even uninstall other antivirus software for you.

The Norton Corp Antivirus is my choice.

It's live update and remote install to the user workstations is two of the best reasons.

I use Norton Corp Ed and am happy. was not without problems but solutions were all documented on the website and you will get phone support with those many licenses. I would not be afraid of OfficeScan either...
But, the unaswered question is: whatare you using for email and do you wish to integrate anti-virus protection there? (have it scan incoming emails for viruii before passing them on to end users)
Notes? Exchange? SendMail?

I guess we outnumber Mcafee here. I highly recommend Norton Anti-Virus Corporate Edition. 1. You can configure a NAV Corporate Edition as Anti-Virus Server
2. You can deploy to other servers and all clients from the main server
3. You can manage all antivirus cleints and server from one console even over wireless LAN
My wireless LAN stretches over 40Km on radio and am able to control 3 remote servers and 30 clients from our main server in our head office
