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.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of the solution is that it is less hash-based than competitors."
"The most valuable feature is the behavioral, non-signature-based threat detection."
"This is really good because it's applicable to zero-day threats."
"This solution can be used with any device, mobiles, desktops, or any appliances."
"The EDR (Enhanced Data Detection and Response) and the DLP (Data Loss Prevention) components are valuable assets."
"It is an intelligent tool."
"It is stable and has a good price. I find it very good."
"The most valuable feature of Sophos Intercept X is cloud management."
"The most valuable part of the solution is its ransomware backup feature."
"The most valuable features are the file activity monitors, DLP solutions, and application controls."
"Seqrite Endpoint Security provides external protection in terms of hard drives."
"The most valuable feature is its endpoint protection, particularly the antivirus component. It has been very effective in protecting our clients, and since its installation, we haven't encountered any issues with compromised endpoints or virus impacts."
"The only thing that I have found useful is that I have an overview of my systems in the networks."
"The two valuable features are anti-ransomware and data loss protection."
"The convenience has been great."
"Endpoint Security's best features are inventory, asset management, and quick scanning."
 

Cons

"Technical support can be improved. There could be shared support, i.e. where someone in Egypt can respond."
"I would like to see better support for virtual and desktop infrastructures."
"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."
"If we can lower the price, it will be fantastic because it will generate more revenue for us."
"As for improvement, more notifications or emails about what to watch out for globally would be nice. For instance, information about the spread of a current phishing campaign or ransomware would be very helpful. I find that I have to dig in the back to find out what is happening on the global scene for things to be aware of."
"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."
"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."
"When it comes to the support provided by the product, I see that Seqrite is not as mature as the other products in the market."
"The cost of the solution can be improved."
"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 don't feel that the scalability part of Seqrite Endpoint Security is better than the other products in the market."
"Endpoint Security would be improved by adding DLP."
"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."
"A handbook of known issues and quick fixes should be given so that troubleshooting and frustration are less."
"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."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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 pricing is average for software like this, but you can purchase additional services if you wish."
"The price of this solution is a little high compared to competitors because they do not have a proper pricing structure."
"The cost of Sophos Intercept X is reasonable."
"As I am not responsible for paying the bills I cannot comment on the pricing."
"You can purchase a license for one to three years."
"The price is pretty good."
"It's not bad, but compared to competitors, it's a little bit on the high side. The price could be more competitive."
"The solution's pricing is good for us, where it is neither cheap nor expensive."
"The pricing is reasonable."
"You need to pay for a yearly license for Seqrite Endpoint Security, which is expensive."
"Though I don't think that this is a cheaply priced product, I feel that it is an affordable solution."
"Licensing fees are on a yearly basis. Compared to other solutions, this solution is cheaper."
"As per the suggestions from one of the experts we know, it is advisable to make a proper comparison with the local vendors instead of solely relying on online prices, which are often higher and quite expensive."
"The license isn't expensive."
"We pay approximately $1,500 for licenses for the solution."
