Featured Reviews

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.
Rathin-Vaidya - PeerSpot reviewer
Offers endpoint protection and data loss prevention functionality
The console is in the cloud, while some of the software runs on on-prem endpoint devices. We use Seqrite Endpoint Security as an antivirus product for its data loss prevention functionality. We configure it to define the types of files that can be attached to emails, and then we receive notifications regarding these actions. Most environments have a sizable number of endpoints. Typically, such environments already have a firewall, providing first-level protection. We have two resources to provide support. I rate the overall product an eight out of ten. It has still not been deployed in large numbers, so I'm unsure if it caters to all security environments. It can reasonably care for smaller setups of around a hundred user clients. For larger numbers of users, it might require a different kind of product.

Cons

"Intercept X could enhance its support services, particularly in terms of response time and resource allocation."
"To be a perfect product, the price would have to be a bit better."
"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."
"I would like to see better support for virtual and desktop infrastructures."
"The technical support is the lone sore-point when dealing with this product."
"Sophos Intercept X doesn't have its own firewall that utilizes the Windows Firewall or intrusion prevention."

"The after sales service and support could be improved."

"The product or service could be improved by incorporating SIEM integrations to enable the collection of logs."

"The interface is slow."
"It should be able to detect and report any ransomware attack but currently, it doesn't detect and it doesn't report any."

There are many other features available but our license does not include them, such as XDR, which is endpoint detection and response.
