Server already had symantec mail & antispam protection on Exchange mail-boxes

demazter.,
thanks for the speedy answer - recommendation.
my question...
if we already had symantec mail security and premium antispam protection
my guess is ESET NOD32 functioning only on antivirus purpose on server files - real time scanning?
this is a main concern, we don't want to slow down this box like symantec corp edition
please correct me if I am wrong!
thanks

Correct ESET would be used purely for Virus scanning.
It's very light weight (especially compared to Symantec) and you probably won't even notice it there :-)

demazter,
I just gone to the link provided and I realized that the vendor is also require to pickup 5 licenses due to business / enterprise usage!
do you know any other antivirus vendors out there offer 1 license for server only?

Afraid not most business/enterprise products only allow a minimum of 5 licenses.
How many workstations are there and what virus product are they currently using?
