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.

Protects the global station and has good stability
The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better. The solution needs better integration with products, if it did, it would have the assumption of better security. I've been using the solution since…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Offers artificial intelligence, security metrics and a lot of information gathered to make decisions."
"It is a very scalable solution."
"Ransomware protection is the most valuable feature of this solution."
"It provides a feature for scanning and analyzing endpoints, which is a value-add for our infrastructure. With the advancements in the Advanced Persistent Threats (APTs), Sophos Intercept X analyzes an APT and the behavior of the endpoints. It then gives us a detailed dashboard with more information about the endpoints and their security and risk level. While deploying Sophos Intercept X, we identified a lot of vulnerability and risky endpoints that our previous solution didn't cover, which proved that this solution is the best."
"The anti-exploit technology within Intercept X Endpoint is excellent."
"The thing that I like about it is the synchronized security. You can tie endpoint protection and firewalls and a whole range of other services and products. You can get your servers taken in under this."
"I appreciate the ability to use the latest endpoint protection features in case of an infection or cyber threat. This is especially true when using the product with a Sophos firewall solution, like the XG series. They collaborate effectively in the event of a cyber threat."
"It is very easy to set up and easy to use. It is also not resource-intensive."
"The feature I find most valuable is that it protects the global station."
 

Cons

"In my opinion, there have been significant developments in the product. In my opinion, I don’t have any suggestions as of now, however I can suggest a cost deduction which will be beneficial for all the parties. It will also relieve our budget and benefit our team."
"When there is an event generated by either the firewall or Intercept X, and the originating IP address is the same, these should be merged into a single event rather than two."
"The customer service and support could be improved in regards to response time. It could be faster."
"The choices offered for the on-premises and cloud-based platforms are the reverse of each other."
"Intercept X could enhance its support services, particularly in terms of response time and resource allocation."
"Should include additional integration."
"The product’s DDoS and AI features must be improved."
"The Data Loss Prevention module can be better. It should also have threat hunting capabilities."
"The solution's integration with the Windows environment could be better."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution is a little high compared to competitors because they do not have a proper pricing structure."
"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."
"While I do not have much experience dealing with the price, we have been entitled to a substantial discount on the solution in our use of it as an educational tool."
"The solution is not expensive."
"I have found the price of Sophos Intercept X to be reasonable."
"The price is pretty good."
"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."
"We are happy with the pricing across all Sophos products."
