Intercept X Endpoint

Avantages

A mon niveau j'ai apprécié la simplicité d'usage. Les fonctionnalités poussées pour affiner les réglages.

Inconvénients

L'interfaçage avec un siem implique de créer ses propres API. Pas d'api permettant de se connecter facilement au Siem du marché.

Avantages

Tiny additional tool you can install alongside your current AV programs to help detect and block Ransomware

Inconvénients

Application can only detect and block ransomware, and nothing more

Avantages

Best Antivirus Software i ever used, the administration console it is very intuitive and easy to use, you have a lot of alerts and as a plus you have a web filter.

Inconvénients

i really can find a Con, what i can say that i really dont like but i understand why is working that way , when you have restricted policies for external devices (usb , printers ) and you need to use one, the process to approve a usb device it is tricky and complicated.

Avantages

Configuring options and scan profiles from the cloud hosted web portal is convenient and easy to keep every machine compliant. Cloud hosted means we don't have to run any infrastructure, just install it on all our endpoints.

Inconvénients

Some complaints that it slows computers way down, opened a support ticket, they were useless, asks the same questions over and over, didn't answer back to my replies for days, convinced me not to renew our licenses.

Avantages

It has a proven track record of malware resistance and its forensics or threat analysis is great. It can help narrow down exactly what happened and what files were effectively part of the launch and spread.

Inconvénients

The biggest issue is more the cost for schools and so I am currently only able to deploy it on our Windows serves.

Avantages

The GUI for administration is relatively simple to use

Inconvénients

Network rollout was a bit more intricate than it needed to be

Avantages

No one can remove the antivirus whiteout admin permission , if any PC got infected Sophos isolate that pc completely

Inconvénients

User interface is good .prefect solution for small and big companies .2fa authenticator .

Avantages

We have been using Sophos Endpoint Protection for about 2 years now and we love it. The best part is the ability to control our Virus protection settings from a central webpage. We use it for more than virus protection we also use it to limit our corporate users internet access. The feature we love it the ability to select categories (Violence, Drinking, Entertainment) This added an additional layer of security.

The dashboard is great it gives us a quick look at the status of our devices. We know that all of our end users and servers are protected. We have enabled email noticications so we will get an alert that there is an Issue that IT needs to look into .

Tha best part is the license is per user not machine. So some of our IT guys have 2-3 computers that all are protected with out the cost of additinoal licenses.

Inconvénients

Very few Cons sometimes you have to dig a little to get to a setting in the cloud console. Also, the support is generally a long wait and the first tier isn't very knowledgeable. Luckily we don't call
support a lot.

I really wish i could buy the product direct and not have to go through a third-party reseller.

Avantages

Easy to deploy and most of the time does not require a reboot. So far no issues with virus/malware sneaking in.

Inconvénients

Policies are not the easiest to find and make changes to if you don't do it often.

Avantages

Efficiently detect ransomware, without interrupting the work of employees. It is powered by Artificial Intelligence that guarantees maximum protection against fake URLs or web pages. It works in the background without consuming the performance of the equipment. It facilitates an optimal centralized management based on the cloud, administered from anywhere and at any time.

Inconvénients

Although it offers powerful and effective endpoint protection. The only thing that must be evaluated so far to implement this solution is its cost, which is considerably high.

Avantages

Easy monitoring the client from central server.
We are able to set customized download limit to the end users.
We could censor the unwanted websites at our campus.
Client can check their daily usage limit and use accordingly.
Sophos portal is very easy to manage and it can be accessed in remote login also.

Inconvénients

There are some drawbacks in end user point of view.
In an organisation the employee will roam around the campus and there are some occasions will happen to login in multiple computers and it is not supported since the admins block multiple logins.
Data limit is really embarrassing.
Authentication is automatically signed off if the systems is kept idle for sometime.
I think Sophos is bit late in updating the databases.

Avantages

Protects computers, never had an issue so must be doing it's job

Inconvénients

Haven't noticed any problems as a user of the system

Avantages

The product is very feature rich and allows us to, in quite a bit of granularity stop, block and allow devices to do things - the product is very intuitive and when testing against other products found threats quicker

Inconvénients

As with everything there is functionality that is "gated" behind extra licensing requirements

Avantages

Great cloud based product, with an easy and intuitive management interface.
Was very fast to deploy the clients and setup policies.
Integrates with other Sophos products in the management interface, making it easy to manage all your security solutions one place.
Great price point compared to features and functionality.
Low resource footprint on most workstations.

Inconvénients

Sophos isn't consistent with which identity solution they support. Some requiring Azure AD and others on-premise AD. To solve this, you need to split the Sophos products over two web management interfaces, which isn't smart or intuitive.
Sophos support can sometimes be a bit slow getting back to you, but seems to be improving.
Features are super easy to implement, but it sometimes comes at the cost of transparency.

Avantages

The antivirus software is extremely effective.

Inconvénients

The dashboard is a bit dated compared to other products that I have used.

Avantages

With cyber threats growing every day we are really grateful for Sophos. As the lone ranger for IT I've been able to use Sophos to make sure that our computers meet our requirements. We've stopped many viruses in their tracks across all our company-owned computers.

Inconvénients

The customer service leaves much more to be desired. The sales process for Sophos is also a bit slow and outdated for a software subscription company.

Avantages

Everything you need in an endpoint protect product is here. Cloud console, great ransomeware protection, integration with other Sophos products. API enabled for other integration.

Inconvénients

There are really no cons when compare to competitors, or course each product will have some feature better than each other but when taking a comprehensive look at endpoint protection Sophos is a well ended product with a competitive price.

Avantages

Antivirus, Periferal control, Web control, Data loss prevention, and ransomware protection in one single Product, great integration with sophos firewall if you have one. Great Server Lockdown feature for Windows and Linux Servers, even if they are On Premises or Cloud based on AWS or Azure.

Inconvénients

Sometimes automated installations end up inn a partial install resulting in having to renistall the client. if you have tamper protection enabled for you clients this will result in manual labor for your team

Avantages

Sophos Endpoint Protection is managed via Sophos Central, the cloud management portal for nearly all Sophos Products. It allows rapid deployment of Sophos Endpoint Software to MacOS and Windows, and reports and allows policies and users to be centrally managed. It's very good at catching nearly all issues.

Inconvénients

Occasionally its not so good and some issues still require physical access to the device to remove the issue.

Avantages

Endpoint security and control are very robust for any local or remote user

Inconvénients

no cons at all after more than 10 years working with the product

Avantages

Sophos allows me as an IT Administrator to get good reports and monitor my network efficiently. I am able to customize certain program restrictions, etc. right from the management console and have the updated paramaters applied to every computer, including laptops not currently on the network.

Inconvénients

The software is more expensive compared to other options, but I do enjoy that I can pay monthly rather than prepaying for 1+ years of use.

Avantages

It's great for users or companies that need extreme protection. It's strong and hard to disable.

Inconvénients

Extremely hard to disable while trying to perform 3rd party support on software. Personal experience, there is no way to disable a tamper protection password without having to get into Safe mode and uninstalling.

Avantages

Moving to this cloud based solution has been great.

-Adding machines has been easy.
-Getting emails right away when a machine falls out of compliance.
-You can start a scan of a workstation from the online admin console.

Inconvénients

Few things we like least:

-Some setting is hard to find.
-The Tamper Protection password is a per machine password. Login to Sophos, find the machine, and then get the tamper pasword. would have been easier if you could set a password instead.

Avantages

Amazing feature set, top rate security and robustness. Has proven to be the best for our clients security needs

Inconvénients

Portal and setup can be confusing with not too much concise and simple documentation.

Avantages

The great thing is our users don't get interfered by working while being fully protected. I think it's nice that we can enable device control. There are a lot of external people coming in and without some overview of what they connect to our devices we would've probably gotten in trouble a lot if it wasn't for Sophos

Inconvénients

We've contacted the customer support a few times and I feel this isn't on par with the security the software gives. We get an exhausting list of things to try to fix the problem but when it doesn't there isn't a real followup.. We end up testing ourselves or finding the fix online.
