Sophos Intercept X for Server vs. WithSecure Business Suite

Licensing is incredibly easy to renew - and to adjust based on usage. The interface of cloud-based management is fantastic and easy to navigate as well. Syncs up with Active Directory to get users/security groups and such for easily differentiating policies to various users. Being able to pinpoint exactly where a threat infiltrated a system (what it talked to once it did so) is a massive feature in responding to online threats. Depending on deployment size - the cost could be an issue for some smaller organizations.

• Very stable and cost-effective.
• Better integration with leading database vendors would be great; this would address features that are missing like x-windows support and concurrent secure file transfers.
• Patching is relatively fast and not as frequent as other vendors (with no impact on adherence to security best practices).

• Very easy to install and low storage footprint.

Incentivized

• File protection and Recovery
• Blocks exploits to deny attackers
• Malware Detection

Incentivized

• Most up to date secure/encryption technology.
• Very fast to set up and maintain.
• Supported by all major hardware platforms (Microsoft, Linux).

Incentivized

• Takes time to deploy and keep updated
• Resource heavy application when running

Incentivized

• X-windows support could be more robust.
• Virtual shell adaptation could be improved.
• Greater concurrency for large secure transmissions would be a great add-on.

Incentivized

• Support organization is active, so is online community boards.
• There have been no significant issues that haven't been able to be quickly addressed by either online documentation or F-Secure support.
• Easy to use diagnostic tools and information gathering, make problem analysis fast.
• Phone support can be different due to time zone differences, but this has not been a major issue.

Does a great job protecting our systems. Email security has more features and easy to manage. You don't have to have your own server to run the endpoint security. Auto updates the endpoint and servers. With a Managed detect response team that does human threat hunting. Overall an awesome product.

Incentivized

• This suite of software does not have any mentionable competition, in my opinion.
• It adheres to current security protocols, in-frequent patching requirements, low IT overhead, and on-going support are exemplary.
• Robust documentation and online community boards help keep support and maintenance transparent and efficient.
• Legacy support for older OS' is quite useful.
• Simplicity when onboarding into custom hybrid network configurations is also vital.

Incentivized

• It has protected us from a ransomware attack.
• Centralized management has saved us time.
• It takes more time to install than others.

Incentivized

• Very low cost.
• Low IT overhead (very low network bandwidth, CPU, storage utilization).
• Supported by all major hardware vendors.
