Number One and Smartest Solution
Best solution that you can even sell over other AVs as an add on even if they are on a current contract.
Pros
It is the best software I have found for COMPLETE ransomware protection.
Cons
Price for Endpoint, Intercept X and EDR all adds up fast and can scare clients.
Reasons for Choosing Intercept X Endpoint
Ingram Micro billing was a huge plus over pandas own billing department that kept over billing me. ESET takes to long to setup. I was up and going in three minutes with Sophos.
Reasons for Switching to Intercept X Endpoint
Panda could never get my billing right.

Sophos Intercept X
Best Antivirus on the market i really like it and i am very glad that we decided this over others.
Pros
Best Antivirus Software i ever used, the administration console it is very intuitive and easy to use, you have a lot of alerts and as a plus you have a web filter.
Cons
i really can find a Con, what i can say that i really dont like but i understand why is working that way , when you have restricted policies for external devices (usb , printers ) and you need to use one, the process to approve a usb device it is tricky and complicated.
Reasons for Choosing Intercept X Endpoint
we like the demo and the price was a little more cheaper than others besides it has a very good Garner evaluation
Reasons for Switching to Intercept X Endpoint
we had a lot of virus attacks using ESET

Great protection, however...
Overall it is a great protection option if you are looking for a big company, depending on your work, purpose of it and if you don't mind having to constantly request access to blocked applications... other than that, good product.
Pros
Sophos offers great overall protection, specially for big companies and networks. It is worth the money and value.
Cons
Only con I found with this product, which is to me a big pet peeve, is the need to contact our IT department because Sophos tends to block several applications and software used on my work space. Only way to get authorized to continue with my work is by contacting IT (product administration) so I can get allowance to continue through these checkpoints.

Excellent Endpoint Protection!
Intercept X Endpoint protects better than any other product I've tried to date. I would highly recommend it.
Pros
Intercept X Endpoint catches things that Symantec didn't. I really like the heartbeat feature that connects to the XG Firewall to prevent or contain viruses and malware.
Cons
I have so far not found anything that I dislike about this software other than the price is a little higher that the competitors however, the competitors don't protect to the degree that this one does.

Easy to deploy inclusive protection
The software was very easy to install and configure. We have not had any issues with viruses or malware. We also have not had anything flagged by other solutions we have tested alongside Intercept X.
Pros
For such a sophisticated software approach it was surprising how low a footprint Intercept X was on our computers and networks.
Cons
The concept of non-database driven antivirus/antispyware solutions takes some time to wrap your (and others) heads around, but once you look into the process it is quite impressive.
Reasons for Choosing Intercept X Endpoint
We really liked the idea behind databaseless antivirus protection.
Reasons for Switching to Intercept X Endpoint
Webroot is amazing software just not as cost efficient.
