I would look at Trend Micro's Endpoint Protection as well. The client is light weight and there are many features and benefits that comes with their service offerings. Some offerings are port security, Ransome ware scanning, Smart Scan and standard scan features which utilizes the processor of the workstations as opposed to having one server using it's resources to scan the client workstations. The firewall client also makes a great proxy server to restrict end user access to unapproved/untrusted sites. There is a really great messaging security server tool for exchange as well. They offer Hosted Email Security (It's bundled with the Worry Free Business Security Advanced Package) which acts as a pre-check or scanning buffer between the web and corporate edge network. Trend Micro also has protection for mobile devices as well.
