Used for endpoint security, ransomware protection, virus protection, and server security
Intercept X Endpoint is deployed on the cloud in our organization. Previously, we had two ransomware attacks when we were using Kaspersky as an endpoint security. We didn't face any ransomware attacks after using Intercept X Endpoint for endpoint security. Intercept X Endpoint has simplified our malware detection. Since we have already implemented the policies in the cloud, all the malware is automatically detected. The solution also detects and removes new malware that can also come from the cloud AI engine. Integrating Intercept X Endpoint with our current security infrastructure was very easy. In my opinion, Sophos is a better solution because we are using Sophos endpoint security and network security. These two things sync with each other and monitor the packets and network traffic. No other vendor has simultaneous devices to check everything. I would recommend the solution to other users. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The base product and the anti-malware feature are most valuable."
"Technical support from Sophos is rated as nine out of ten, which represents high quality."
"The most valuable feature is that it literally works. We have reduced a lot of complaints after switching to Sophos."
"I find the security heartbeat feature with synchronized security very useful. It's a very nice feature that allows you to basically switch off an endpoint. When an endpoint has got a virus or something like that, or it's infected or compromised, you can isolate it from the network, but only if you've got an XG Firewall as well. It also provides ease of use. It is the only antivirus that can recognize 25 out of the 36 ransomware and virus techniques that have been often used in terms of the behavior base using heuristics. It's beautiful, utterly amazing. No other antivirus can do that."
"The solution protects us."
"The most valuable features of Intercept X are server lockdown, auto-remediation, and encryption monitoring."
"Scalability is good."
"We have found the pricing to be reasonable."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The setup process was easy for our remote clients and us as well."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
 

Cons

"There are not any solutions that are a 10 out of 10. A 10 would be perfect protection with no impact on the performance of the device. This is not the case, there is some impact on the performance of the device."
"The solution can be expensive, although we do see the value in it."
"Sophos has a lot of different features. Some of them are tied to different clients, which may mean that different prices or licenses have to be added on. It can be a little bit confusing if you're not familiar with the logic of how they work. They can make it a little bit clearer."
"Through Sophos Central I would like to see the ability to zero in and produce a report about the challenges being faced by a particular machine and user, to know if a virus is appearing only on that specific machine or also on others."
"We are considering switching from this solution as a result of the closer integration needed between the firewall systems and the EDR."
"There should be a report including a flowchart or diagram. It will be useful to evaluate the software’s effectiveness."
"Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond."
"The solution's pricing could be better."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The interface is slow."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We were able to eliminate the ransomware using the one-month, full-featured trial license."
"The solution is not expensive."
"The price of this solution is reasonable."
"I would rate the price 7 out of 10, where 1 is most expensive and 10 is cheapest. Also, a little reduction in price can be a great move for Intercept X Endpoint."
"I have found the price of Sophos Intercept X to be reasonable."
"Compared to other solutions, such as CrowdStrike, we are most certainly happy with its pricing. We did a three year-business deal."
"The price of this product should be reduced because it is a little high."
"We have bought a three-year license."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
