”We get into these engineering meetings where we decide that we need some ridiculous number of virtual environments. By the time the meeting is done, I have a lab that’s now been cloned and ready to go... That’s something you can’t do from the Hyper-V Manager. You’ve got to come into 5nine to do that.”

”It’s crazy to not consider 5nine. When we started looking at Hyper-V tools, 5nine was the only game in town for agentless antivirus. I think companies need to definitely look very hard at 5nine before they spend a lot more money. It will give them everything they need, especially for small and medium environments... I’ve got no plans to use anything else.”

Simplify Security for your Virtual Machines and Users with Agentless Protection
Legacy endpoint security solutions do not work well in virtualized environments as they require agents to be installed inside every virtual machine. This slows down deployment, adds complexity and risk, and can cause a significant performance hit for each VM. Since no security component is required to run inside the virtual machine, the operator never has to manage it, never has to update it, and can never disable it. For real-time antivirus protection, an agent-based installation option is also available to give you multiple levels of threat defense.
Protect yourself with the Only AV Solution Built and Optimized for Hyper-V
5nine provides the only solution specifically designed to maximize your performance while securing Hyper-V with antivirus and antimalware capabilities. You get the choice of signatures provided by industry leaders Bitdefender, Kaspersky Lab or ThreatTrack. 5nine's Microsoft-certified and patent-pending technologies have been trusted by thousands of users worldwide to provide security, management and performance optimizations that no one else can match
