Walling Data Protects North Carolina Mental Health Association's 400 Statewide Users with AVG Internet Security

Claremont, N.C. (PRWEB) June 26, 2008 -- Lou Porco has been Network Administrator at the Mental Health Association of North Carolina for several years, managing the technology needs of the organization's central Raleigh, N.C. office as well as the approximately 150 satellite offices across the state.

Given the confidential nature of much of the data stored on the organization's networks, security and privacy are key concerns for Porco. "When I first came on board, the organization was running Norton AntiVirus products. When that became too cumbersome, we switched to Panda software, but neither solution delivered the kind of powerful yet easy-to-manage solution we needed," he said. "For both products, the updating process was cumbersome and the toll on workstation performance was just too much. So we decided to look for an alternative."

With over 400 workstations to protect, Porco wanted a stable anti-virus solution that would offer powerful protection, yet was easy to use for both end users and administrators. After doing some research, he decided that AVG AntiVirus looked as if it would meet all of his requirements -- he was particularly impressed by the positive comments he found about its ease of use as well as its affordability.

"As far as anti-virus software goes, it doesn't matter if it's easy for me to use, it matters if it is easy on my users," Porco said. "It's my job to learn new software, but my users don't need to get involved with what's being used to protect the data on their workstations. AVG was perfect because I knew that my users would barely know it was there."

Once the product decision was made, it was time to scout out a supplier. A quick tour around a few websites led Porco to Walling Data Systems. He was even happier when he found that Walling offered discounts to non-profit organizations for AVG licenses.

"Pricing was a big issue for us," Porco said. "The nonprofit discounts offered by Walling Data were great, and made it much easier for us to justify the purchase and seal the deal quickly."

Walling Data Systems (http://www.avg-antivirus.net) is the country's longest-standing distributor of AVG Technologies' solutions and the company's highest-volume distributor in North America. Walling specializes in the education and nonprofit sectors, and is the only distributor to offer all customers free, unlimited, U.S.-based support as part of their purchase price.

Complete Satisfaction

Porco is completely satisfied with AVG, and loves how easy it is on both IT administration and the users.

"AVG catches everything and it doesn't get in my users' way," Porco said. "Only 40 of my users are in house, the rest are scattered all over the state, so I needed security software that basically runs itself. AVG has proved it can do just that."

Porco likes AVG so much in fact, that he also uses it on his home computer and says he would recommend it to anyone.

"We just renewed our licenses a few weeks ago and upgraded to AVG 8.0 at the same time. The whole process with Walling Data was fast and painless," Porco said. "Just like AVG!"
