Sophos Intercept X, Better than the rest
- I watched it stop a ransomware attack in it's tracks
- I have compared it to other products using ransom and Sophos comes out on top
- It can be expensive, but compared to what happens without it, I highly recommend.

Sophos Intercept X is to antivirus as Rod Woodson is to cornerbacks - it intercepts everything.
- Before we had Intercept X, we had several infections of ransomware. Since that time it has stopped at least 10 attempts, saving us thousands of man-hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars.
- By decreasing the time needed for malware remediation, it has saved us the cost of .25 FTE in the IT department.
- Initial setup was cumbersome and cost us .1 FTE in additional costs the first year.

Intercept X intercepts everything

Sophos Intercept X will give you peace of mind

Sophos Intercept-X Works Great!

- We're able to more quickly remediate vulnerabilities with Intercept-X.

Sophos' cloud offering works well but Secure Boot messes it up
- This product costs almost exactly the same as it's predecessor that we were using, which was an on-prem Sophos Web Appliance. However, the newly separated "Windows Server" endpoint license is a lot more expensive than the old endpoint device license on the web appliance. So we are now paying about 4x as much for coverage on a Windows Server as we did before we changed to Sophos Intercept X simply because Sophos created a new license (and a different client. It was the same client as PCs before now) that is specific to Windows Servers and we decided to buy a few. I'll admit that the new Server client covers more areas than the PC client so that's how the price is justified.
- We've had LOTS of evidence that Sophos Intercept X has protected us from all manner of malware, ransomware, viruses and data loss. We would never ever be without it because it's value as an antivirus and anti-malware product is inestimable. We don't have a clue how much time and money we would have lost without it, but as you all know, we MUST have a good antivirus. Sophos Intercept X is just that, a good antivirus.

Quick alerting and automated responses for better security
- Positive: Sophos has allowed the organization many forms of proof of protection for auditing and compliance.
- Positive: Sophos has detected and automatically cleaned suspicious files and blocked malicious activity for several assets.
- Negative: End-user feedback of intensive scanning and high CPU/Memory usage by Sophos.
June 12, 2019
Intercept X is a game changer for our organization
- Intercept should be integrated with AV as one solution but I think Sophos generate more revenue from selling 2 products.
- We appreciate Sophos Central it is a fantastic product ut require some reporting enhancement.
- I wish intercept X has the mechanism to analyze the ransomware, malware & other attacks to give deeper insight into the issue (when, where and how).
- We have had an outbreak threat that started to encrypt our files and we were able to stop and roll back the changes it made automatically using Sophos.
- We have had a few instances where it was blocking Java programs but we allowed those on the interface so the work by our NOC techs could continue without issues.

Sophos: Simple and efficient, does what it says
- Sophos provides a clear defense for all AV threats with a minimal input form engineering at a very reasonable price point
- ROI was quick with saved engineering time, risk reduction and being cloud based meat no overhead for on premise solutions
- The added benefit of then using Sophos to monitor internet access and usage was icing on the cake providing added benefits with little additional overheads
December 19, 2018
Sophos is more than your legacy AV.
- Protection against ransomware
- Efficient malware remediation
December 13, 2018
Sophos Endpoint - An essential component in a modern antimalware/security platform.
- Customers on Sophos have yet to manage to encrypt a PC with malware. It's that simple - we don't have to fight those fires anymore...
October 01, 2018
Sophos makes financial and security sense.
- Sophos has allowed our IT team to set it and forget it and reduced our overall time spent managing our Security on our Network
- The value for the price of Sophos has been the best I've seen in my 15 years at my company

The easiest and most reliable security software out there!
- Sophos Endpoint Protection has made life easy for me, as an administrator. It is easily deployed, configured and maintained.
- This software has saved a lot of time. It stays up to date reliably, which saves me from having to go investigate why the latest definitions package was not installed.
- We have not had any security issues since it was deployed years ago. That alone makes Sophos Endpoint Protection a winner!

- Sophos Endpoint Protection has enabled us to reach our compliance objective in regards to Anti-virus/Anti-malware.
- We have been able to decrease our internal time spent administrating our security portfolio with 60% due to faster work flows and better reporting.
