@aaron-studer Don't you use Sophos at work?
They usually allow you to install AV for home use as long as you have a valid license at work. We have licenses for 250 users, so we are allowed to register 250 for home use at zero charge as well.
That's pretty nice.

Panda AV did this for me in the past too. This kind of seems to be a small trend. Offices that move to Office 365 with local install Office, the users often find themselves with several licenses worth they can install at home.
Cox provides it's home users and corporate customers with McAfee AV included. -

This has been decently common in the Business Anti-Virus space for years. Additionally Microsoft has offered Office home use rights for people with service assurance for at least 5 years.

Apparently some banks and credit unions buy our software in bulk to give to their customers. It's cheaper for them to pay for AV software than the costs of identity theft overall.

@nic We are a credit union? Do you offer special pricing on this?
-
We have alot of members who struggle with online banking and have run into phishing attacks causing identity theft
-
@IRJ yep we do - there's discounts for non-profits, SpiceHeads, and depending on the size of the purchase there's some room there too. Let me know if you want to talk to a sales person and get a quote.

We have the choice of using their Internet Server or our Sophos server. If you have employees that have access to secure data at home, its a really nice feature. We can make sure they stay up to date.

We have quite a few members. Let me find out a ball park number and maybe I can talk ball park price with a sales guy. I dont want to waste alot of their time or mine if its way out of our price range.

What about MangoLassi discounts?
-
@IRJ sounds good - just let me know and I can get you more info.
-
@scottalanmiller I think that everyone one here is a SpiceHead no? We'll have to call it the SpiceHead/MangoLassi discount
-
So I think I am going to end up going with Vipre.....
I can't seem to beat 10 Computers / $49.99
-
@Aaron-Studer you could see if our sales guys will price match
-
@Nic If they would, I would take it.
-
@Nic Do you guys have live chat? Talking on the phone is sooooooo last year.
-
@Aaron-Studer doesn't look like it, sorry
They probably wouldn't have a sales convo that way anyway (nor would anyone, since they'd probably not want to put negotiations down in writing). -
@nic @aaron-studer you guys can live chat right here!
-
@scottalanmiller My guess is that @nic can't do pricing
-
@richard probably can.
