I am currently using the UTM 9 home and have deployed the endpoint software on my home PCs and Server. What are my options if I move to the XG Firewall Home? I read that the endpoint software deployment and management is not part of the XG Firewalls and is being move to the cloud.

AlanT,
Hope you will do. Integrating security heartbeat for home users will help you to have feedback from this community (Astaro Home License School!).

Didn't work for a few reasons. I tried taking my endpoints off the UTM9, good so far. Next I tried loading it on my home Server 2012 R2 Essentials. It wont load the OS is not supported with Sophos Home Cloud endpoint. :-( Then I loaded it on my windows 10 PC... it loads fine, web interface is good... less options to configure web filtering but they were okay. Then I tried doing a system scan on my PC.... BSOD... Bad Header Error... I had this problem with the UTM9 endpiont for a while but so I left to another Antivirus Vendor, decided I would like to come back to Sophos, So I tried loading the recent version of the endpoint and the BSOD Bad header error was fixed. I would like to use the XG Firewall, but I guss at this point it is not an option unless I go to another antivirus vendor, because the BSOD is back with the home cloud version and no coverage for my home server :-(

Yes it will not run on Windows Server... For you BSOD you might want to raise this in the Sophos Home community (community.sophos.com/.../) so the team working on Sophos Home is aware of it and can address it.

As already stated by Alan, there are no current plans to have this in the short term.
I neither want to rule it out nor say it will happen at the moment.

i want to see cloud account for home users. the way is not so far i think, because there is already home.sophos.com. But so we cant use the heartbeat feature. Iam an it-administrator and will like this option for home users and purpose testing :>
