Overall Satisfaction with Sophos Intercept X

We use many modules of Sophos Central but Intercept X is used on all endpoint machines and servers in our environment. It is our anti-malware and anti-virus agent. It also allows us to set policies for web access and application access.

Pros

  • Application control.
  • Web control.
  • Threat remediation.

Cons

  • Better integration with active directory both on premise and Azure.
  • ROI has been excellent.
  • Manageability.
  • Policy control.
We didn’t evaluate any other products. I used Sophos at a previous company and when I started here, they were using the on-prem version. We immediately migrated to central and haven’t looked back. I am aware of the competitors, but once you are comfortable with a quality product that is easy to use and they continue to make advances, it takes a lot to change.
Nothing is perfect so it won’t get a 10, but it has continued to save us when we need it, so it gets a 9.
