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.

Protects the global station and has good stability
The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better. The solution needs better integration with products, if it did, it would have the assumption of better security. I've been using the solution since…

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."
"The updates and a lot of the day-to-day fiddling that you would have to do with it, can all be done from the cloud so it's easy to manage, and very easy to administer."
"The solution's initial setup process was straightforward."
"The performance is good."
"The most valuable features are ease of use and the GUI."
"The product efficiently prevents data leakages."
"The client isolation feature is a very effective feature."
"The most valuable feature is the CryptoGuard in Sophos. In a case of a ransomware attack, this feature comes into action to protect us."
"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
 

Cons

"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."
"Stability-wise, we had issues with some clients which had to be dealt with manually. The issue was with that installation part."
"They might want to offer an MSP model for licensing, to offer the solution as a software as a service."
"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."
"In my opinion, there have been significant developments in the product. In my opinion, I don’t have any suggestions as of now, however I can suggest a cost deduction which will be beneficial for all the parties. It will also relieve our budget and benefit our team."
"I would like to see better support for virtual and desktop infrastructures."
"The pricing could be a bit lower to match the normal retail pricing."
"The performance is very slow and should be faster."
"The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Licensing fees are paid monthly."
"One can pay for the license annually, or at two and five year intervals."
"Price-wise, it is good. Currently, we have a three-year plan."
"Its price is reasonable."
"Compared to other solutions, such as CrowdStrike, we are most certainly happy with its pricing. We did a three year-business deal."
"The pricing is actually quite reasonable."
"There is a license required to use this solution."
"You are able to purchase more licenses for the number of devices or servers that you require. There are many other features available but our license does not include them, such as XDR, which is endpoint detection and response. We have not explored the new features as of yet but plan to in the coming future."
