First choice would always be bitlocker. It's built-in, therefore free in win8 pro/enterprise and win10. Win7ers will normally upgrade sooner or later, so it should be available to you, too.<br />
There are many others, but basically, a lot of features are identical.

I should have mentioned that we run a mixed Mac and Windows end point environment with some Linux servers thrown in just for fun.

My company is looking to encrypt all of our data at rest especially end user devices as they have a tendency to come up stolen. We currently use Trend Micro Office Scan as our end point security solution and after reading the feature list of their encryption choices, I am leaning heavily towards them However, I would like to make a well educated decision so I am turning to the experts. Can you all recommend some end point encryption solutions?

Endpoint Encryption 

Encryption is the process of encoding messages or information in such a way that only authorized parties can read it. In an encryption scheme, the intended communication information or message, referred to as plaintext, is encrypted using an encryption algorithm, generating ciphertext that can only be read if decrypted. For technical reasons, an encryption scheme usually uses a pseudo-random encryption key generated by an algorithm. An authorized recipient can easily decrypt the message with the key provided by the originator to recipients, but not to unauthorized interceptors.

Encryption

Security is the protection of information systems from theft or damage to the hardware, the software, and the information on them, as well as from disruption or misdirection of the services they provide. The main goal of security is protecting assets, and an asset is anything of value and worthy of protection.  Information Security is a discipline of protecting information assets from threats through safeguards to achieve the objectives of confidentiality, integrity, and availability or CIA for short. On the other hand, disclosure, alteration, and disruption (DAD) compromise the security objectives.

Security

A laptop or notebook is a portable personal computer with a clamshell form factor, suitable for mobile use. Although originally there was a distinction between laptops and notebooks, the former being bigger and heavier than the latter, there is often no longer any difference. Laptops are commonly used in a variety of settings, such as at work, in education, and for personal multimedia. A laptop combines the components, inputs, outputs and capabilities of a desktop computer, including the display screen, speakers, a keyboard, and pointing devices (such as a touchpad or trackpad) into a single unit. The device can be powered either from a rechargeable battery or by mains electricity from an AC adapter.
