Compare between Sophos Home and other vendors

Sophos Home is a consumer-focused antivirus solution developed by Sophos, a company best known for their enterprise-grade protection tools. It brings many technologies used in business environments, like malware protection, malicious traffic detection, and AI-based threat prevention, to personal PC and Mac users.

Sophos Home does not offer a permanent free version, but the Premium plan has a 30-day free trial. Users can access all features during this period, including ransomware protection and web filtering tools. After the trial, users must upgrade to a paid subscription to continue protection.

After the 30-day trial, Sophos Home Premium is priced at $44.99 for one year, $74.99 for two years, or $104.99 for three years. Each license protects up to ten devices and offers full access to advanced features like AI-driven threat detection.

No, Sophos Home does not include an integrated firewall. Users must rely on their operating system’s built-in firewall or use Sophos’s standalone firewall products, separate from the Home subscription. This may be a drawback for users looking for a fully all-in-one antivirus and firewall suite.

Yes, all Sophos Home Premium purchases come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. This gives new users time to evaluate the software’s performance, features, and ease of use before committing to the long term.

Sophos Home is built for desktop platforms, but mobile users can download Intercept X, a free mobile app for Android and iOS. It provides essential protections like link checking, web filtering for dangerous websites, and theft prevention.
