Excellent piece of software.
2 years ago I bought a 2 computer/3 year license pack and will definitely renew next year.

We were very close to moving to it at work too, however their central server solution isn't as mature as the Symantec one, so we stuck with them.

Smart Security includes the firewall and other security products.
Personaly I just use NOD32 AV as I rely on my hardware firewall on my router for protection from actual hacks etc.

Personally I wouldn't bother with the suite, but it all depends what you prefer.

na i think i will leave it for now. can't see the need

Same. NOD32 AV on its own is pretty good, I don't think the ESS is anywhere near as mature.

cheers guys... nice to have some info from those that use it..

Kennysevenfold · 19 Dec 2008 at 16:20

Craigius · 19 Dec 2008 at 16:20

I use it and i like it seems too work very well post back and let us know how you get on with it.

I bought two licences for NOD32 Antivirus earlier in the year and it cost me £25.

For the best and lowest footprint antivirus around, that's pretty darn good I think.
