Hej,
is there a roadmap for the XGs for the next major versions and the planned functions?
Thanks.
Forgot to put a follow up/bump here, on the road to XGv18 in two years.
SFOS 17.1.3 MR-3 released these days. Bug fix mostly.

Hey Paul,

Any Updates from Friday?
So ? Anything from the planned presentation ?
Crickets...
I'm still looking for a comprehensive feature comparison between current SG/UTM and XG. Haven't found one yet - just snippets. Even Sophos' own comparison document isn't much help since it lacks a date/version.
It sure would be nice if Sophos would publish a comprehensive matrix and along with roadmap details.
Dead Crickets...
That .pdf is very outdated. I consulted it at the begining of 2017 ...
Any updates on the Roadmap?
not only dead crickets, dead wicket.
Information about the presentation would be very interesting. Especially details about SFOS v18....
Do not expect v18 before 2020 ...
Hello all,
what I heard and saw (unofficially):
- v18 Beta - for partners April/May- v18 GA - September / October- v18.5 - Q1 2020
thanks for the information. Too bad that this is not official, but at least a start. :-)
I'm hoping for 2019, but I think it'll be more like 2020.
With best regards,

And any details about what's new in v18?
For what it is worth, next 17.5.x is due by now ...
17.5 MR3 is released
https://community.sophos.com/products/xg-firewall/b/xg-blog/posts/sfos-17-5-mr3-released
MR4 is dev complete and currently being tested.
Is there a feature/bug list for MR4?
On this same post Hubert Christian wrote on 2019-2-1 that improvements are for backup only ...
"Then we expect another Maintenance Release in early March (MR4), with additional features like Encrypted Backups and Backup Management from Sophos Central."
Not much more news than that. It is stange how search engines finds nothing on SFOS. Search for any other suppliers are normaly more successfull. Cisco for example gives you millions of results ...
Agreed, but I'm still holding out hope that Sophos will provide a single overview of bugs/features and their planned release. In other words, a roadmap. At the moment that information is all over the place and probably incomplete.
Hurray - another tidbit about 17.5 MR4:
Hello Val,
It does seem that the fix was not implemented on the previous MR. Your issue could be relavent for failed update from the logs on your system. We expect the fix in 17.5 MR-4 and it should be out by end of this month.
Could you provide us access to your machine by enabling Support Access and PM me the ID, so I may have a quick look and diagnose the issue?
