Who is rocking webroot around here? Is it worth the money still?
We're kinda split on Sophos at the moment - our test boxes have produced "meh" results.
Entire environment is mcafee which I have almost nothing good to say about.
We just renewed Webroot for the 3rd year in a row. It's been great, easy administration, reasonably priced. The only issues I've had are with 2 or 3 developer machines that occasionally don't want to call home, but that's a result of our internally developed stuff. Kind of a PITA, but not really.

What do you use on your servers?

@Nic do you have any contacts with webroot still? any deals for non-profit canadian companies made of sugar and light and everything nice?
-
@MattSpeller Yep - there's a non-profit discount, but actually the SpiceHead/ML discount is a better deal than that, although that page seems to have vanished for direct purchase. If you want a good sales contact, talk to Tim Sheahen tsheahen@webroot.com and he should be able to get you the best deal.

Webroot on everything. It has basically zero impact on performance.

Did you need to create profiles or anything to avoid it screwing with VM's or SQL?

There's a server default profile that works for most anything you'll be running on a server. You do need to install the agent on each VM - there's no hypervisor install option. If you run into any issues with it causing problems with a server application just talk to support and they'll help with the profile configuration and/or getting anything whitelisted.

We use the built in server profile with like 1 setting changed (I think). Works a charm, on VMs as well (I don't have it installed on host hardware).

Will just any plane do?
I was looking to get on a specific one today, but there are times that a random one seems like a good idea.
Back in NJ for a bit for my brother's wedding.

@NDC Nice finally someone in NJ

On the train to work

Testing out the new 7.2.16 update on our Scale cluster. There are new client tools to consider deploying as well.

Isn't like half the community there? LOL

Speaking of which, it might be worth talking about a Mango Meetup NYC/NJ group. We are getting the Dallas / DFW group going in May.

Receptionist just came to my office to ask if I wanted coffee.
