You may be wondering what the difference is between consumer and enterprise security software. There is a big difference. The difference comes in how the software is installed, maintained, and monitored.
Enterprise Security software is targeted towards business and it makes it easy for one person to install, maintain, and monitor security software on many PC’s. In addition, enterprise security software is cheaper, per PC, than it would be to purchase a consumer license for each PC.
Let’s look at an example of the cost using Vipre Enterprise versus the consumer version of Vipre. Let’s say you have a small company with 10 PC’s. To purchase 10 individual licenses of the consumer version of Vipre for 1 year would be about $300. If you purchased a 10 seat license of Vipre Enterprise, it would cost $167.50. That’s about half the cost. In addition, the Enterprise version gives you a central place to install, monitor, and maintain Vipre on all of the PC’s. You don’t have to physically go to each PC to maintain it.
Now that you hopefully see the value in the Enterprise version of security software over consumer versions, you are probably expecting a list of Enterprise security software. But we aren’t going to do that. Of our recommended security software, only one offers an Enterprise version. Vipre. If you own or work at a business that has 5 or more PC’s, we recommend that you switch to Vipre Enterprise as soon as possible. The security of the computers that run your business is nothing to fool around with. Do yourself, your business, and your employees a favor and switch to Vipre Enterprise as soon as possible.
We can assist you in the installation of Vipre Enterprise. If you don’t have a server, we can even add your computers to our Vipre Enterprise and we can also monitor and maintain the security of your system so you don’t have to worry about it.

Hi Linda. Microsoft isn’t doing away with Windows because they make a lot of money by selling new versions of Windows. They will be retiring XP in 2014 and they are working on Windows 8 right now. They want everyone to get Windows 7 so they can make more money!
