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

"It is one of the best in terms of technicality."
"The malware detection is the key feature."
"I have found the most valuable feature to be the EDR."
"The solution has very good usability."
"This solution is easy to configure."
"A valuable feature offered by Sophos is called Naked Security, and it entails the control managed by the firewall on the site regarding the desktop client interfacing with our cloud client."
"This product integrates well with Sophos firewalls and should be seriously considered by Sophos Firewall clients."
"Ransomware protection is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"In case it works, we are looking to use features like USB blocking, file upload alerts, and other antivirus features as well, but this software has to work first."
"The overall performance of the server and the dashboard are the most interesting aspects of the solution."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The update process and policy control are good."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"I like Seqrite's web protection features and external device control."
 

Cons

"The initial setup can be a bit challenging."
"Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond."
"Intercept X needs more reporting and device management features, so I can get messages from PCs that let me know if I need to do something with them."
"We are not able to merge the sub-estates. If we create multiple sub-states and there may be instances where a user is in a different sub-state, it may not be possible for us to relocate that user from one sub-state to another through the console. We have to merge them manually which is not ideal."
"They should keep doing what they're doing. Both of them have entered the EDR/MDR space, and they're keeping up with their competitors. I have a hard time understanding why their capabilities aren't garnering more attention."
"The price of this solution can be improved."
"It would be beneficial if you could expand support for Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 without charging an additional fee."
"It could be a bit easier to implement."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."
"The solution could improve by providing better security and a cloud base version."
"Deployment of Seqrite Endpoint Security is generally straightforward. The only complexity we encounter is that, since it is cloud-based, there can be delays in updating the endpoint's status."
"Sometimes, small and medium businesses, or even startups with just five, ten, or fifteen systems, are also keen to secure their data. There is a reluctance on the part of the technical team to extend installation support when the opportunity sizes are smaller. Seqrite Endpoint Security has a lot of value. Still, its marketing could be done much better on a larger scale, especially in India, in light of the new DPDP 2023 Act, which the Indian Parliament passed. It would be even more valuable if Seqrite could incorporate features to help companies comply with this law, it would be even more helpful."
"I would like to see Seqrite add a remote profile so we can implement different policies for users connecting to the in-office LAN and those accessing the office network from home or a public internet connection."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"The solution's integration capabilities are moderate and could be improved."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"As I am not responsible for paying the bills I cannot comment on the pricing."
"Its price depends on the scenario. It is very expensive, but it is not more expensive than other vendors. The price of Check Point and other vendors is much higher than Sophos."
"The price of the product is okay, in my opinion. The tool's cost per user and per annum basis is around INR 700 to 800."
"The price is pretty good."
"Compared to other solutions, such as CrowdStrike, we are most certainly happy with its pricing. We did a three year-business deal."
"The product is moderately priced."
"The solution’s pricing is high."
"It was fairly and reasonably priced."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"The license isn't expensive."
"We get the tool for around 1200 rupees for a three-year subscription. I rate its pricing a nine out of ten."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The solution has reasonable pricing. There is one pricing without any hidden charges. They have to pay once a year or three years."
"The pricing is reasonable."
