Managed Solutions has a long history working with security products. Very early on in our business cycle it became apparent that the Internet and Email were going to really push the envelope as far as security for personal computers was concerned. Over the years we have worked with a number of specialized vendors providing Antivirus, Anti Malware and Anti Spyware solutions. Up until the summer of 2006 we viewed the products as a cumbersome necessary evil. That changed when we starting looking at ESET’s NOD32 product line. ESET has done a number of very positive things to vastly improve the ease of use, management and performance of their product and in the process made it cheaper for us to own and operate as businesses and individuals. Most security products these days are slow and inefficient, not NOD32. NOD32 is truly a wonder in that it achieves the following:

• Provides a very high level of performance
• Is easy to install and maintain
• Is effective at detecting known and unknown viruses
• Is easy to upgrade
• Is competitively priced
• Uses very little system resources
• Is very easy to manage
• Offers very flexible configurations

At Managed Solutions we pride ourselves in being a business that is prepared to change and make moves swiftly when it makes sense. ESET has made it quite easy for us to migrate our internal security mechanisms and customers to their NOD32 product. Our customers that have made the switch have had nothing but good things to say about NOD32. A recent response we received was “My computer is faster” and of course this is achieved while upgrading the quality of the solution. A typical problem in the past we encountered was re-licensing and upgrading the products was difficult and cumbersome. This is a huge burden that is lifted with NOD32 being a breeze to upgrade and acquire licenses.
