Pulling the plug on Sophos Intercept X

We love Sophos here and when Intercept X came out, we promoted it heavily to our clients and made the Sophos concepts of a) adding a layer of cryptovirus protection with deep learning on top of standard antivirus and b) synchronization between endpoints and the firewall both core feature of our service and part of our stack.

Unfortunately, Intercept X is actually terrible. We spent a year trying to make it work without completely slowing the endpoint machine down to the point of destroying the hopes and dreams and crushing the soul of anyone using it.

This is leaving a couple big wholes both in our story and what we deliver clients.

I'm guessing we're screwed as far as synchronization goes because we will keep using Sophos XG firewalls but keen for any recommendations for an alternative to Intercept X that doesn't choke the life out of computers.

  • This is interesting; we have this on many of our managed clients and aside from the odd exception here and there haven't had much trouble.  Can you describe more regarding this speed issue you are seeing?  What platform(s) is/are this on?  Are these low-spec machines?  Just curious.
