Citrix and Norton Corporate AV

[MattWray]

We had a consulting company come in recently to have a look at our network and make suggestions about improvements we may have missed. One of these suggestions was to get rid of NAV and replace it with TrendMicro AV for servers. They stated that NAV and Citrix were not friendly with each other. Is this true? Should we think about replacing NAV with TrendMicro?
All opinions are welcome and appreciated!

Thanks for the reply. I am finding quite a bit to back it up from Citrix's support forum, stating trouble between TS and Norton. Several postings here,

I guess they are mostly pointing to slow logons and logoffs.

Any more opinons/experiences? Right now, I am leaning towards getting the Trend Server Protect...

Have been running NAV CE 8.x on one of my production servers.. had to take it of because of some memory leak problem......

then informed at a specialized citrix implementation firm.. they advised when running AV then run Sophos.. beleive there is a white paper about citrix and sophos...
