Webroot
-
Well I've been running this for a few days now, and it's been blocking stuff I've thrown at it. I'll have to admit though that the scans are scary fast. But it's been rather un-obtrusive and not chatty on the home version service. I like that.
-
ever since @ajstringham mentioned setting up a business version to use for all his family and such, I've been thinking about doing that myself.
edit: or was it @aaron-studer that said that? -
@Nic Cool how you guys do both web/content as well as antivirus in the same service. For traveling laptop users that roam home, and outside the corporate firewall the "let my 5 yr old play games on it at home" seems to be a solid attack vector that this can stop.

@Nic 56K speeds for Youtube (my favorite policy to set in Meraki wifi).!

They're separate services. You might be able to get a discount for using both, not sure how that works.

Glad to hear you are liking it. The estimate about 3MB a day for sending up the MD5 hashes and the return communication, so it doesn't eat up that much bandwidth.

I know that as my clients all come up for renewal on their Vipre agreements, I will be giving Webroot heavy consideration. They presented their case quite well at a SpiceCorp meetup last fall.

Cool - let me know if you need anything as you're evaluating it.

Nice - let me know if you want any swag or giveaways. Richard does a lot of SpiceCorps sponsorship so I can ping him as well.

What about MangoLassi Meetups?
There is talk of doing a NYC one in April.

It's funny you should mention swag. Our Sp***corp had a Webroot call back in Dec. I don't recall the name of the sales guy but he took everyone's address and mentioned they were going to mail out shirts. To the best of my knowledge no one ever got one.
-
@Dashrender I was only half paying attention about that part of our presentation from ours. i do not think anyone got anything.

Omaha, Ne on or about Dec 6.
Was it this one? http://community.spiceworks.com/meeting/show/759
I'll check with Richard and see what happened. -
OK I was only 3 weeks off.. yeah - that was the one. and Frankly the reason why I really like Webroot today (that was before you joined them - now I like them doubly)

I checked with Richard and he says sorry for dropping the ball on getting you the shirts. If you can PM or email me ([email protected]) your size and address he'll get them out to you. If there's anyone else waiting on theirs just have them contact me too.
Glad you like us and hopefully I won't spoil that

@duffney did you ever get your shirt?
