Mark: Hi, my name is Mark. I'm the sales director and an MSP, and I would give ESET Endpoint Security a four out of five. We had a mixture before ESET, of sort of like Norton and McAfee and Symantec. It was sort of a mix match, and we wanted something to put everybody under. So that was why we rolled into ESET. And we had a good portal to manage all the end points from. Very good cost, as being one of the reasons why we chose ESET for as many end points as we were adding, along with a great product, great reporting. And like I said, a free portal to manage all the end points from. Was very easy, very easy. We placed our order, and next thing you know, within a day we had everything start moving on getting it set up and making sure it was on all the different machines we were adding it to. I think we may have even put it on servers at the time, I forget, but it was pretty easy getting everything rolled out. I would definitely give it a try. There's a lot of products out there that do pretty much the same thing. So it's a very competitive market, but ESET is very competitive in that market. It offers a very high quality product at a very low price.
