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

"The patches on offer are very helpful."
"This solution offers very good performance and it has great features."
"There do not seem to be any limitations to the scalability of this product."
"I like the way it goes beyond the office space. Being a cloud-based solution makes it very easy to manage your endpoints within the office. In this time of COVID, you can also very effectively manage people who are working from home."
"One reason why I have stuck with Sophos is because it grabs it and deals with it, and if it's known malware, it can quarantine it or delete it."
"I consider the heuristics to be most valuable, the fact that the solution does not work solely on signatures."
"The pricing is fair. It's not too costly for our small organization."
"Sophos Intercept X is easy to install and has a lower price than similar solutions."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The product's initial setup phase is easy."
"The solution effectively detects malicious files and blocks sign-ins."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
 

Cons

"Integration with firewall solutions could be better."
"They need to focus on their SLA or technical support. They also need to focus on their UI. They should also improve their content filtering tool and update it so that correct categories are there. Sometimes, when I want to block an online gaming website, it is not shown under the correct category. It is shown under another category. They need to review their content filtering tool on a bi-weekly or monthly basis and update the sites and categories. This will be really helpful for them."
"Sophos Intercept X doesn't have its own firewall that utilizes the Windows Firewall or intrusion prevention."
"There is room for improvement in terms of stability and updates."
"The detection and the AI capabilities should be improved upon."
"Deployment on cloud needs to be carried out manually."
"Intercept X could enhance its support services, particularly in terms of response time and resource allocation."
"The main real-time scanning takes most of the processing power of my notebook."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The interface is slow."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"We have bought a three-year license."
"One can pay for the license annually, or at two and five year intervals."
"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."
"I find the pricing to be a little bit expensive, although it is acceptable, for now."
"Price-wise, it is good. Currently, we have a three-year plan."
"The pricing is actually quite reasonable."
"Licensing fees are paid monthly."

"It is a cheaply priced product."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."

"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
