Situation
It had become apparent that a new virus protection solution was needed for their own infrastructure because current solution from TrendMicro was unsatisfactory.
Time and again the Internet service provider (ISP) would alert the company of harmful software. There was no longer sufficient protection for the computers, systems and applications used. Hence, the ISP blocked the systems supplier's access to the Internet.
BOA GmbH Product Evaluation
The people in charge at the company in Laupheim reacted quickly and called for several anti-virus and security solutions to be tested, including the new versions of TrendMicro, Etrust, Avira and Comodo.
The management board at BOA GmbH had already had their sights on Comodo's SSL certificates and became aware of the supplier's Advanced Endpoint Protection via the website. From a commercial standpoint, the solution outperformed the competition primarily on the basis of its simple licensing model. The great value for money and the restrictive setup of the solution confirmed the decision for Comodo.
Moreover, an aspect of Comodo ESM particularly stood out in the decision to purchase the solution: the feature of completely isolating viruses from the PC and other IT hardware.
