We're currently using Trend Micro Worry-Free Business Security Advanced for our company's antivirus needs. We love its features like URL filtering, USB device control, and the integrated firewall. We're now on the hunt for another solid antivirus product that offers similar functionalities. Any recommendations?

Sophos Intercept X has worked well for me. It integrates nicely with our Sophos firewall for URL filtering, and you can manage device controls effectively. I was looking for better ransomware protection, and it's really delivered so far! However, the XDR option can be pricey.
When selecting an antivirus, consider a few key things: Do you need a centralized management panel for all devices? What's your budget for the annual subscription? And are you running specific hardware like Snapdragon or Qualcomm devices?
I manage SentinelOne and I've been really pleased with its performance. I also looked into CrowdStrike and think both options are solid. If you're looking for reliability, they stand out in the market.
SentinelOne was impressive when I managed it – it doesn’t require the same manpower that other solutions like McAfee do.
I've had great experiences with Huntress. It’s worth looking into if you want something effective and manageable.
What kind of devices are you protecting? It helps to define your antivirus choice based on your specific environment.
We're mostly using Windows workstations.
I’ve been very happy with ESET as well. It’s user-friendly and robust.
Have you considered using Microsoft Defender alongside EDR and MDR? For URL filtering, I think it's best to handle that on your firewall. And for USB device control, you can manage that with Group Policy Objects (GPOs). It could save some hassle!
But how do you manage remote workers and field agents with that? Sending everyone through a VPN just for URL filtering doesn’t seem practical.
Good point! A client-side cloud-based filter might be a better route for those situations.
Sophos should also be on your radar. I've managed it and found their service and response times to be excellent!
