The problem is we're having issues getting trial versions for some of these corporate products. Does anyone have any input on the installation, management, system resource usage, and any other input on any centrally managed antivirus products such as Symantec Corporate 10 (with antispyware), AVG, McAfee, etc.?

Hey T-will, my place uses Symantec Antivirus and it works pretty well. I think we are on version 10 now. You can get trial versions you just have to call their sales people or a VAR. The only product I would avoid is McAfee unless they have started not sucking in the past 3 years.
