Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition Vs Symantec Endpoint Protection (some missing features?)

  • 1.  Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition Vs Symantec Endpoint Protection (some missing features?)

    Posted Dec 19, 2011 10:14 AM

    Hello,

    I am currently trialling "Symantec Endpoint Protection Small Business Edition" and "Symantec Endpoint Protection"

    I work for a company of 20 people, so thinking that the Small Business Ed. would be Ideal but the Symantec Endpoint Protection seems to have features that we require that I cannot find in the Small Business Ed. I was wondering if they are in the Small Business Ed. at all?

    We have a DMZ in our network and I need to be able to set the port over which Live Update runs. I have found the setting in the Symantec Endpoint Protection software (MSL, Policies) and it worked. However I can not find in the Small Business Ed where to set up a MSL or change the port number.

    I have also read a forum post, but could not find anything concrete that the Small Business Ed. does not allow internal Live Updates (i.e. a distribution centre for the updates so all the computers do not have to down load the same updates) Is that true?

    I tried to phone the support line, but they told me to post my questions here, I tried to search for my answers but could not find the answer I wanted

    Any help would be appreciated.

    With thanks

    Andrew

    Hello,

    There are a number of Differences between SEP SBE 12.1 and SEP EE 12.1

    For Example:

    If you are using Small Business Edition then at SEPM console there will be written "Small Business Edition"
     
    In Enterprise Edition, you see only Symantec Endpoint Protection Manager.
     
    Check this forum article for more details.
     
     
     
    I hope it will help you !!!

    HI Andrew there are certain limitations like MSL is by default created in SBE in Enterprise edition on you can create a MSL , SBE you cannot create a MSL since the policy components tab would be missing
