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

"Sophos Intercept X is easy to install and has a lower price than similar solutions."
"Solution for endpoint detection and response, with good stability and scalability. Users also benefit from email protection and data loss prevention."
"The client isolation feature is a very effective feature."
"It does its job — it protects us from viruses. We don't really interact with it very much."
"Since it's cloud-managed, the solution is easy to administer, especially if the person using it is in a different geophysical location."
"The key factor that attracted me to Sophos Intercept X was the multi-platform. I have multiple clients that have mixed environments of Mac and Windows. I am able to deliver a standard solution, regardless of the platform."
"The most valuable feature of Sophos Intercept X is a web filtering and URL sanity checks. Overall the solution is well balanced with all its features."
"It is easy to change the size of its capabilities, i.e. to expand processes or scale the size of users."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"The solution's current features include antivirus, web filtering, file activity monitoring, PAM, firewall, IDS/IPS, and DLP. Though I'm not familiar with the whole solution, it is good."
"The convenience has been great."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"The update process and policy control are good."
 

Cons

"We would like to deploy across a variety of machines simultaneously through the network."
"It has a performance hit on a local laptop. There's an agent installed and we are bothered a lot by it because it seems to be using a lot of computer resources."
"This product does not handle USB drives well."
"They should work on the logs and events. Sophos Intercept X needs to increase the interface test so that it can export to a live event."
"The number one thing I would like is if their support could be a little faster and it would be a little easier to get a hold of support when you need them."
"The performance is very slow and should be faster."
"Intercept X Endpoint sometimes slows down machines due to high CPU utilization and significant RAM consumption during scanning."
"Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The pricing could be a bit lower."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"When we fire any employee connected remotely over the internet, we need a security feature that blocks the system and the device."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"I don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Compared to other solutions, such as CrowdStrike, we are most certainly happy with its pricing. We did a three year-business deal."
"On a per-user basis, my company has to pay a certain amount of money."
"On a scale from one to ten, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the solution's pricing ten out of ten."
"We have bought a three-year license."
"It was fairly and reasonably priced."
"It's not bad, but compared to competitors, it's a little bit on the high side. The price could be more competitive."
"There is a yearly payment to be made. For each client, it costs around 15 dollars. There are no additional costs besides the licensing price we pay to use the solution."
"The price of Sophos Intercept X is competitive."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
"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."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
