    I am not sure if it is necessary, but if you use the Email Security piece and have any users with email aliases it is required for that.  There is no other way to get email aliases into the Email Security piece without the AD Sync tool.  That is the situation I was in, so I started using the AD Sync tool right from the get-go.  It was really easy to setup and use, so if you are worried about it being difficult, I wouldn't shy away from it.  Now that I have it setup and configured, any time I add a user to AD I just re-run the tool and it adds the new user to Sophos Central all in about 2 minutes.  Very efficient.
