Does anyone have any experience with this product? We currently have licenses for end users and I would like to know more about the centralized desktop monitoring solution it offers. Is it better or similar to McAfee's ePO?

Hi Kenone,

The antivirus software is readily available for download at our company's website and is accesible to employees through a site license.

I work at the help desk and don't have access to this feature/installation disk, so I only recently found out that End-point Protection has a management console.

Is there a forum/place/white paper that can show me how it works?

How robust are its features and is it a scalable platform (for example, easily updating the virus definitions of 3500+ users)? I understand that it makes use of an agent to pull new virus definition updates from the server. Can this agent be configured to pull those definitions even if they are not part of our domain from the server?Can it update our end-users even if they are outside our domain? If so, do we need to purchase another product (NAC)?

Also, here's the URL to McAfee's ePO.

Thanks a lot!
