Support since new format (still) very diminished

Since the new format, support appears to be sorely lacking. Many questions not being replied to, adequately replied to or followed through by SAV staff. One example of many: this thread, where Bob Cook asked me for an Intercheck process sample. Supplied days ago but not responded to.

Hoping that this is only a temporary state of affairs. I have several other questions, but haven't posted them because getting answers has often been quite frustrating  lately.


I think we all realize that we can't expect the same kind of support that we would get with a paid app. However, free or not, we are installing a program on our computers which makes significant system modifications and which we are permitting to make any number of different outgoing connections, and related questions should really be replied to by staff, not just other users.

Without at least the kind of support we formerly received, I think I will have to rethink whether or not I want to continue running Sophos--especially now with the new 9.4, which has implemented many changes.

  • Hi brvx. I really appreciate your comments and we are going to improve on our responses and response time. I'll reach out to bob and get him to respond. Please do post additional questions and I'll help chase down answers for you. Feel free to ping me whenever you like if you don't hear from a community member or Sophos Staff.

    I hope you continue to use this and other Sophos products.
  • Glad that someone finally replied. I've had to turn off the On-Acess Scanner because of these freezes from Intercheck--kind of pointless having Sophos if it has to be like that. Hope someone looks into this soon and hopefully provides a patch to fix it. As it is, running the 9.4 has become unbearable.

    Never had this issue with any prior version.
