What differentiates Sophos Endpoint from other similar products?

Even if a new threat occurs, the endpoint may always upgrade the capabilities given for cloud management and respond quickly. In last year's EMOTET, the EDR was the first to protect us, therefore there was no internal damage. It has various threat detection capabilities, such as internet protection and download reputation, as well as a strong defensive component that shields itself invisibly on the back end, significantly decreasing malware damage. Thanks to cloud management, the (central) management server can be accessed from anywhere, making it easy to perform queries while on the road.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

Because the management server is located in the cloud, several management servers are not necessary, and even 10,000 endpoints may be managed with only three relay servers. Its functioning has been much simplified when it was renamed Sophos Central since there is no longer a requirement to run the management server itself. Furthermore, Central has a vast variety of functions, all of which may be handled by three people. ecause there are so many logs, it is easy to quickly identify the client user who is having a problem, and the time between detection and reaction has been greatly reduced.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Because we were often sending detection queries to the Sophos server, we needed to put up a proxy. Furthermore, there are various Central management tools that are updated on a daily basis, but I don't know how to use them because the information isn't made public. I'd want to see more KB as well as management workshops.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Because the management server may be reduced in size, it is simple to install even on a large scale. It is quite powerful, having a wide range of detection and reaction capabilities. Many features are standard and will be added at no extra charge. A component of the cloud-managed OptiX is already available for free usage. Because it is a client license, it is less expensive than those of other businesses. Since the detection status is aggregated automatically, determining which client is the source of the detection and the reason for the detection is simple, which is considered helpful for threat protection.
