Choice of antivirus DrWeb or Nod32?

Question

System administration

The organization, 50 computers, it's time to renew the antivirus. Although Nod32 sees and knows it. The question arose what to choose and whether this is an isolated case .. If you do not think about the price, which is better?

Answer 1

Conducted the experiment, after installing and checking the computer, changed the antivirus and checked again. I changed 5 pieces and each installed antivirus found something.
Therefore, put what you like and more convenient to maintain.

The best antivirus - truncated user rights :)

Answer 2

I definitely like Kaspersky more, with your choice of Dr.Web, I did not like Nod32 in terms of administration.

Answer 3

Everyone misses one way or another.
We have Kaspersky, and six months ago, people were catching lockers once a month, both in organizations with Kaspersky and with NOD.
Now there are 3-5 reports a week that Kaspersky blocked the launch of a downloaded file with a locker, and so far not a single fact of encryption this year. Maybe they came up with something, and tweaked the functionality. Plus, they began to work more closely with users in terms of increasing attention to such things.
And so, in my opinion, Kaspersky is the most convenient in terms of administration.

Answer 4

there is a comparison on anti-malware.ru

Answer 5

Antivirus is a tool that you need to know how to use. Antivirus alone will not give you protection, what protection tools do you still use? Nod32 sees this one, but it may not see 10 others that DrWeb will neutralize. Do you have Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite?

Answer 6

Yes, we have Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite. And the truncated rights were too. But nothing saved the ransomware, although the bukhs thought of scanning it. Ok, I get it, thanks everyone.

Answer 7

It should be noted that eset does not have an FSB certificate, in some cases it is required by law.
And yes, as they wrote above, administration is poor for eset, I won’t say about drweb, but for kaspersky it’s excellent

Answer 8

DrWeb is primarily aimed at signature search, GCD is primarily aimed at heuristic. These are different approaches.

Answer 9

In my opinion, antivirus is not needed at all.
Now the only problem is the installation of unwanted software and a hidden encryption virus, which, by the way, you can inform users about.

Answer 10

Why so many praises for Kaspersky administration tools (I don’t speak for the antivirus itself)?
A few recent issues: in the KSC console, there are a lot of computers with the status "Virus scan has not been performed for a long time", although the search was 100% performed both by tasks from the administration center and manually. Google says that this problem has existed since 2011 (corresponding topic on the forum). Plus, he likes to swear at unprocessed objects, although these objects are no longer in sight.
It's scary to even imagine what administrative tools the rest have, if Kaspersky is considered the best. ))

Answer 11

At home for a long time I sat under the administrator without any antivirus at all (but with the Windows firewall turned on) and felt quite safe. Either I don’t go to some sites that shove some kind of filth into my computer, or something - there was not a single problem that would prevent me from working.
Now I installed MS Essentials - in fact, just for show, because the situation has not changed much (only the OS has changed from XP to 7).
And, by the way, while sitting on HP - did not include Windows Update, put only SP. Now I put all the updates.
At work is KAV and Windows Update. I advise you to read this rating )

Answer 12

Used ESET, DrWeb and KAV. My conclusion: in terms of "catching" viruses, they are about the same. At the same time, one misses something, something else .. 100% no one catches.
But the server part and administration are terrible for everyone. A bunch of bugs, flaws and just illogicalities. For every advantage, there are ten disadvantages. And all of them are not corrected for years.
