Few Milter solutions are multi-purpose ones : most of them try to address one given need (virus-scanning, antispam, ...). Remember you can use several Milters (several INPUT_MAIL_FILTER definitions in the .mc file) if a single one does not offer all the features you need
Most commercial Milter solutions are antivirus filters : virus vendors have adopted Milter quickly. Which solution is to be used ? It all depends on your needs, knowledge, time and money. Contact the author/company or use the proper mailing-list/newsgroup to check that the Milter solution you noticed will be appropriate.
