Peace of mind in identifying compromises in your M365 tenants
Huntress Managed ITDR examines various signals from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action. It's a comprehensive solution covering endpoints and cloud tenants, offering peace of mind. I recognized its benefits immediately, as it provides protection against M365 identity compromises, like admin account breaches.
Suwandhi Suraweera - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers advanced filtering features and benefits from improved licensing and performance
There is a licensing issue with Intercept X Endpoint. Their licenses are user-based. Most of our customers use per device licenses, and they need per device licenses because they use one PC for multiple accounts. This creates a problem. There was one customer who complained about the slowness of PCs using Intercept X Endpoint. They use minor performance PCs, which causes their PCs to become slow.

Pros

"Huntress Managed ITDR examines various nulls from the M365 tenants. If anything suspicious is identified, their SOC analysts can take a closer look and subsequently take action."

"Implementing Huntress Managed ITDR has improved our business by allowing us to be more proactive with our security posture."
"The centralized management with the EDR and ITDR is beneficial."
"The initial setup was very easy."
"It is an intelligent tool."
"Ransomware protection is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"Sophos Intercept X is a complete endpoint solution."
"It's a good antivirus software and has a lot of features. It now integrates with their on-premises firewall, which is perfect."
"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 package we use also comes with spam filtering features, which are quite useful."
"It is easy to interact with, and its cost is also good."
"The most valuable feature of Intercept X its ability to stay ahead of the infection. By the time the ransomware spreads to the next machine in line, the data has already been encrypted on that workstation. It didn't matter what the ransomware did because could go in and get it back."
 

Cons

"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"More in-depth reporting could be beneficial for the solution."
"If anything, it's created more work, but that's because we're now seeing things that we weren't seeing before."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"The product needs further maturity, with some improvements in the user interface."
"Integration with firewall solutions could be better."
"It's a bit heavy on the computers. So once you install it, the computer slows down. It is a resource-intensive solution."
"There is a licensing issue with Intercept X Endpoint; these licenses are user-based, and most of our customers require per-device licenses because they use one PC for multiple accounts, which presents a problem."
"It would be beneficial if you could expand support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 without charging an additional fee."
"Intercept X could enhance its support services, particularly in terms of response time and resource allocation."
"If Sophos Intercept allows users to restrict website access based on specific needs, such as streaming new videos for business purposes, we would prefer to use that."
"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."
"I would like to have a built-in firewall, rather than having to integrate one."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"We have bought a three-year license."
"The price is pretty good."
"I would rate the price 7 out of 10, where 1 is most expensive and 10 is cheapest. Also, a little reduction in price can be a great move for Intercept X Endpoint."
"It was fairly and reasonably priced."
"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."
"Licensing is based on the number of users. They give a discount for editors who are considered as important members. From what I know, Sophos products are not expensive. If you have a license extension, you just need to contact the editor or partner to change the mode of licensing or extend the license to cover more people."
"The pricing is quite expensive compared to the rest. I would rate the pricing a four out of ten; one is expensive, and ten is cheap."
"The solution is not expensive."
