    No, there were no complains from the customer, only inconvenience in installing and configurging as it is done throug the cmd line and the customer was installing as unmanaged

    You can also install a managed SEP client on a Windows 2008 R2 Core editon. And, if you launch the process SymCorpUI.exe, you can see the main UI of the SEP client.
