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

"Sophos Intercept X is a very effective solution and its being cloud-based is a benefit. Wherever my users are, I can apply policies to them. In the era of mobility, when users are out of the office or they're in different locations, it doesn't matter."
"It does its job — it protects us from viruses. We don't really interact with it very much."
"The key factor that attracted me to Sophos Intercept X was the multi-platform. I have multiple clients that have mixed environments of Mac and Windows. I am able to deliver a standard solution, regardless of the platform."
"Sophos Intercept X is a complete endpoint solution."
"It is quite scalable. You can always add more users. I would rate the scalability a nine out of ten."
"There do not seem to be any limitations to the scalability of this product."
"Scalability is good."
"Offers artificial intelligence, security metrics and a lot of information gathered to make decisions."
"The solution is centrally managed, easy to configure, and easy to use."
"We found the DLP to be innovative and useful."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The most valuable features of the solution are DLP, XDR, and EDR functionalities."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security is a good solution."
"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."
"There are many features available in this solution, such as asset management."
 

Cons

"Sophos Intercept X doesn't have its own firewall that utilizes the Windows Firewall or intrusion prevention."
"Mobile device management is a challenging area, and it can be improved. Some areas in the DLP solution can also be improved. It has the DLP capability, but it is not an all-out DLP program. I would like to see them improve the DLP solution in terms of reporting and possibly network monitoring. Currently, they only do the reporting parts of it."
"They might want to offer an MSP model for licensing, to offer the solution as a software as a service."
"Installing Sophos Intercept X was not as straightforward, as we had to ask support and had to work with an integrator, though the process didn't take much time, e.g. it was completed within one hour."
"The endpoint detection and response (EDR) technology has room for improvement because the information that it gives us to resolve our problems is poor nowadays."
"The main real-time scanning takes most of the processing power of my notebook."
"Features that should be improved in the upgrade involve the excessive consumption of the the solution's processor, RAM and resources."
"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."
"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."
"The support offered by the tool is an area of concern where improvements are required."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"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."
"The solution needs to improve stability."
"We are using Apple devices, and the advanced device control service doesn't work for M1 chips devices, like Apple MacBooks."
"We would like the solution to have integration with other security solutions so that we can have a single base for monitoring all the security incidents and concerns."
"The solution could integrate with other products to provide a comprehensive protection strategy."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Price-wise, it is good. Currently, we have a three-year plan."
"We were able to eliminate the ransomware using the one-month, full-featured trial license."
"As I am not responsible for paying the bills I cannot comment on the pricing."
"I am not sure about the cost. I would guess it to be between $50 to $60 per license. This would be the cost of the overall subscription. There is no additional fee."
"When you start going to the EDR technologies and the MTR, it is a little bit expensive. It's a very good technology, and obviously, you're going to pay for it, but the pricing could do a little bit of work."
"We have bought a three-year license."
"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."
"They offer both monthly and yearly licenses."
"The license isn't expensive."
"My company needs to purchase a yearly subscription for the licensing costs for Seqrite Endpoint Security."
"Endpoint Security is cheaper than Trend Micro."
"It is a cheaply priced product."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"I give the cost of the solution a seven out of ten."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"There is no option to refund the money and unfortunately, we bought a three-year license, seeing that Quick Heal is a long-established player in the market."
