Re: sophos question

I've heard that Sophos' client can be heavy on resources, however I have
no first hand experience with the product. Just be sure to do a load
test with your systems and make sure they can handle the memory
requirements of the app.

Friends,
We're getting ready to switch 600 Windows clients from Computer
Associate's eTrust to Sophos for our enterprise
anti-virus/anti-spyware/application control solution. If anyone has had
any negative experiences with this product or migration I'd appreciate
knowing of it. From our research, demo, and client list, it seems a good
solution. The ISED archives show that Jason, Heather, and Roger gave it
a good report in November (with the one caveat about scripting the
removal of the old a/v software).=20
Thanks,
Demetri

ps. Thanks Arvind, Alex, Fred for the http://edtechtalk.com discussion
about the ning today. http://isenet.ning.com is getting close to the 500
mark :)
