Sophos Home Anti-virus - A Great Choice We have used Sophos home anti-virus products for several years. I appreciate that there is very little user input required to keep the system protected. Sophos works in the background, and updates itself regularly without any user input. Of course it provides very strong protection for our devices.

IN THE BACKGROUND After using many others and being interrupted to the point of annoyance, I installed Sophos and almost forgot it was even there! Once configured to my specs, which was easily done, Sophos works in the background, as it should. Now the annoying interrupts are a thing of the past, so shall they remain with Sophos!

Issues with Mac OS Big Sur I have been a Sophs customer for several years and subscribe to the Home Premium service. Since my upgrade to Apples Big Sur OS 11.7 I have several times experienced the red shield while indicates no Sophos protection. I also was unable to use the scan function, after malware was detected. Not sure if it is an Apple, or Sophos issue. The chat system is somewhat helpful, but not always. It could be an Apple issue or Sophos, and all I know is that as the end user I have to deal with it. A re start of the Mac seems to clear the issues. I would like a simple to manage protection service that has a consistent level of quality performance.

Sophos just works. Purchased Sophos because it was the system used by my employers and once we all started working from home I had to ensure that my security was at least as good as theirs. This product has never ceased to impress. The corporate version is installed on hundreds of our machines worldwide and it just works. On my home machines it is the same. I get the odd alert but it just tidies up problems and removes threats without making a drama. I’ve worked in IT for 25 years after working for over 20 years in banking so I’m somewhat obsessed with security. Sophos is the perfect partner.

As safe as Apple OS and iOS is (which I… As safe as Apple OS and iOS is (which I use), it is common knowledge that computers (be they Windows, Mac or Linux based) are vulnerable to malicious hacks as well. (be they viruses, attacks, etc.). It just makes sense to add an extra layer of security. Sophos is used by so many of the world"s leading companies to protect their data. Why wouldn't I want to get the same sense of security. That's why I chose Sophos. I get live alerts and online services that are world leading. Happy customer!
