Panda Managed Office Protection. Security company Panda has released a free beta version of its anti-malware and firewall package for small businesses. It uses P2P for updates across the network, and has an automatic proxy configuration feature which should make it easier to install and run.
Panda Managed Office Protection is the antimalware and firewall solution for clients and servers; hosted in Panda Security, that provides full control and monitoring of the remote centralized Security through the Internet from a single website. The solution has been designed for Small and Medium Business and for larger ones that have to manage different delegations.
This product seriously blows away the competition. I’m doing a BETA run on a customer’s network and it’s impressed me so far. The WOW factor is definitely there. With Norton Enterprise Endpoint (the solution i used previously) i would get hidden Trojans and malware that would go undetected for weeks. I had to run a competitors web-based scanners just to double check the doubts Norton gave me after failing a few times.
On 120 workstations… that’s quite some work!
Pros:
The thing i love about Panda Managed Office Protection is their fully managed solution, and their collective intelligences. NO MORE SIGNATURE FILES! I just cant wait for it to come out of BETA. It still needs some fine tuning on the software interface, but
Cons:
The thing i don’t like about it is its extremely LONG name; Panda Managed Office Protection.. it’s just too much to type.. I declare nickname: PMOP!
