Rolling out agent via console.

Neil_Evolve

Good afternoon,

I'm scheduling a rollout of Endpoint protection and need to be able to give a rough estimate of timescales involved. I would normally push out on a per site / department approach in batches of 50 aiming for around 300 endpoints per day, but may need to aim for a higher rate due to the numbers involved.

This will be a multi-site deployment and all endpoints will use local servers for the initial install and updates.

As part of the install the incumbent AV will be removed by Sophos CRT.

Is there any guidance around how many installs should be kicked off at the same time and how long the installs can be expected to take? I have around 20 000 endpoints so need to give a reasonable estimate of the time required.

Regards.

    Hi Christian,

    Thanks for your response, which is pretty close to my own estimates.

    Six domains across five sites, so message relays and web CIDs aplenty.

    I'd previously intimated three weeks to fully understand the existing infrastructure and their requirements and to plan and put in place the Enterprise Console components. With around two months to complete the migration of endpoints to Sophos.

    I don't expect it will take quite this long, but I always feel it's easier to give a rebate at the end of a project then to go back asking for more.

    Regards.
