Intrusion Protection software recommendations...

I'm researching Intrusion Detection Software for an SBS 2011 server.  Has anyone utilized a particular IDS for SBS 2011 for more than or close to a couple of years since SBS 2011's release successfully and if so, what brand and version?  Thanks.

I am using IPS as opposed to IDS

@gheist    IPS and IDS are different and I am reconsidering using both.  However, IPS appears to be embracing more and more IDS functionality but just isn't there yet.  I'm currently looking at SO (Security Onion) as the IDS as well as a separate IPS.
