Intercept X includes CryptoGuard, a ransomware-specific behavioral detection feature that stops ransomware from encrypting files and data. Web filtering capabilities allow blocking access to malicious or unwanted websites. Sophos Central is a cloud-based management console that allows managing all your Sophos products from a single dashboard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Resource-intensive, especially during scans and updates, which may impact the performance of older devices. Limited reporting capabilities, may make it difficult to track and analyze security events and incidents. Expensive for small and startup organizations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Intercept X is generally a good peice of software. It is fairly lightwight on our machines and is very quick to catch issues. It can sometimes be too good at catching things and flag software made by some of our engineers as malicious but its better safe than sorry. I use it regulary and Sophos Central is useful for tracking computers that might not be fully protected. It installs quickly on new machines and doesn't always require a restart which is a plus. I haven't had to conntact support but based on other team members, they are pretty responsive. I really like its intergration into Microsoft 365 allowing for SSO.

It can be annoying when you need to uninstall the software since it requires tamper protection to be disabled. This isn't really a bad thing but can make it take longer to troubleshoot issues on computers. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sophos Intercept X, used by our engineering firm of 225 people, impresses us with its ease of management, robust security features, and responsive support. We appreciate the cutting-edge technologies it employs, including deep learning, behavioral analysis, and exploit prevention. All this comes with minimal impact on system performance Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While we think we are getting good value for our money costs could always be lower. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The product impresses with a slim client and a simple initial option to roll it out. The endpoints are provided with basic protection without any further settings. With the support of the collected data, the behavior of an incident detected by the client can be traced via the central cloud dashboard and what actions the suspected software has carried out on the endpoint. The support provides quick and qualified support if you have any questions about resolving suspected cases or configuration questions. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The basic settings of the client are very general and must be configured to enable proper business operations. Sensitive detection mechanisms occasionally trigger false positive messages. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We can rest easy knowing that Intercept X is continuously guarding our endpoints from ransomware assaults, which are the kind of thing that keep IT administrators up at night.
It is noteworthy that heuristic scans and signature detections are used to protect users against the most recent threats and to enable file recovery in the event that unauthorized encryption is discovered. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Sophos can be a little bit of a memory hog. On some devices we notice a slow down that does cause some complaints. need to restart the servers just to install the patch. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This product allows me as an IT Administrator to confortably work in several realms of my job, and not spend so much time worrying if a computer is vulnerable, or if a user is doing something they should not. SOPHOS provides the peice of mind to which most admins spend ours on end going through logs and doing investigative work. Eveyrthing is at your fingertips, in readable dashboards. Notifcations are customized and categorized so that you know what to respond to, or if it is not an emergency and can be dealt with at a later time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Only downside to using SOPHOS is understanding threats better. Even though a threat might be detected, understanding what that threat is and its severity, can be somewhat confusing. For example, we work closely with in house development teams who often generate and compile code to be implemented on products from their computers. Often times, SOPHOS will intervene when compiling software or code. This can create a nightmare and it would be nice to know when and if something like this is a rising threat or initiated by one of my developers. I realize these are often called false-positives, but SOPHOS could do a better job of identifying them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the proactive threat protection against varied types of cyber attacks. I like how nimble this service is to quickly identiy, protech/block the access and notify administrator regarding the breach. I have heard many positive comments coming out of our employees in terms of how easy it is to use this service on their own without much training. Since this product has wide variety of integration available with other IT products, it is much easier to make this product/service seamlessly integrate with Microsoft AD (AD Sync), monitor the threats real-time and receiving helpful ways of resolving any particular breach(s).

I haven't come across anything that i didn't like about this product so far. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
A solution that provides a high level of protection to the IT environment: computers, laptops, servers, etc. It is easy to implement and easy to manage. Customer support is very good, and you have help from the vendor in the deployment. It has integration with other products, such as Office 365. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
In the XDR part, despite having a significant data lake, the queries are somewhat complex and sometimes a bit slow in execution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
Only one console to manage all Sophos products and with the "Connectors", now we can add other parts of my infraestructure, creating a true XDR platform based in a great endpoint protection product that has provided valued along these years we have been using it.

I would like a more granular endpoint firewall system and a more granular application control, but these are modules that comes with the endpoint with not charge at all, so for most of my cases are more than enough. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
