Sophos has been simply outstanding! When windows update installed a bad update that greatly affected computers, Sophos told me how to uninstall that update and get my computer up and running again. My computer is always kept clean of viruses, trojans, ransomware etc... Malicious websites blocked. I can't see any reason to give Sophos a rating any less than A+++++
I assume all of the threat detection services are working as promised. But I hate that every time either of our two Macs are rebooted, The "welcome to Sophos Home" box appears - just like when we first installed the app. When clicking "Let's Start" button, it takes you into the Preferences menu, but Sophos is already given permissions as requested.
So far so good. Hope you will have an IOS version for protection of the iPhone, like Norton or Mcafee.
So far so good, no problems. Performing as expected.
Nothing to tell it seems to work fine and don't have to worry about it
I am unable to give a review as I have not experienced any major incident.
It is a helpful and reliable partner in the background for peace of mind
I have been using Sophos Home for years and have been pleased with the results.
Sophos has always been a straightforward application to use and I am reassured by its ability scan my system as required.
I like Sophos because it stays out of my way, yet is diligent in protecting our computers, tablets and phones against malware, trojans and all the other nasties that are out there. I can individually scan downloaded files, set up periodic scans that will exclude my backup drives as desired, and receive quick warnings about potential phishing websites.
Sopos Home is unnoticeable as it just runs in the background, I have used this program for a couple of years now, it doesn't slow the computer at all and will detect something wrong then stop it.
I've been using Sophos Home for a few years now and have never yet had any problems with it. It just does its work in the background and updates regularly. There's no impact to computer performance. Some security softwares slow your computer down but this one doesn't. The web based control panel offers various settings you can switch on or off and you can also add additional computers to your account which will also be kept secure with Sophos Home.
Security of my PCs and communication devices.
Great service where I can rely on things getting done.
Sophos Home performs its function and had detected several actacks and spams. I would like to have easier and more clear instructions to performe some update or corrective tasks. but this is a minor issue
I’ve never had any issues with any of my laptop, iPad, phone etc since going with Sophos.
Excellent product with all the functionality & ease of use you need. This includes full remote access to scans & setting up/removing devices, all within a very small non-intrusive footprint which results in almost no discernible impact on performance whilst being run. Factor in up to 10 devices (including desktop, laptop, tablet, iOS & Android) very good & quick customer support & a realistic price: it's a real winner & overlooked gem.
I've used Sophos for years. Its safe & reliable with minimum system drain unlike some others. If security is of importance then this is the one.
