Why should customers switch to Sophos?

There are many benefits of choosing the Sophos XG Firewall. Tell your customers how they will benefit from:

• Better visibility – We use telemetry from the endpoint to automatically identify and expose hidden risks, and our endpoint integration can provide automated responses to incidents. Sophos also identifies top risk users based on browsing habits and advanced threat infections, and the Cloud Application Visibility can identify shadow IT and at-risk data.
• Better protection – Unified Firewall rules define policies and settings for antivirus, SSL inspection, sandboxing, IPS, QoS, web filtering, and app control. The XG Firewall uses deep-learning technology in the Sophos Sandstorm solution to catch previously unseen malware. We use the best technology from industry-leading, next-generation endpoint protection solutions. And we use exploit prevention to identify malware exploits and ransomware before they get onto your network.
• Better management and reporting – Our XG Firewall solution provides fully integrated, on-box reporting and log storage, and we use high-performance SSDs at no extra charge to you. We also provide free Sophos Central management to manage your firewalls along with all your IT security products, such as endpoint, server, mobile, and wireless.

This offer is valid for all XG Series appliances except 86/86w/106/106/all Enterprise Guard appliances.

Customers not currently using a Sophos Firewall just need to provide proof that they’re replacing a competitive firewall (e.g. model and serial number).

After the recent End-of-Sale announcement for the legacy RED devices (which are mostly sold out), it’s time to focus on positioning the new SD-RED models. These devices are uniquely positioned to address the current demand for plug-and-play, secure remote connectivity – and particularly important right now, without needing on-site IT staff.

But with changes in pricing and connectivity options compared to their legacy predecessors, we’ve had many questions about positioning the new models.

This post will help you answer those questions.

When should I position an entry-level XG instead of SD-RED?

The image below provides a simple answer, but for more detail, check out this Partner News story.

Why is there no longer a w-model?

By offering a modular concept, we can provide a very flexible solution which customers can tailor to their individual needs for each remote site – both now and in the future. The Wi-Fi and 3G/4G add-on connectivity modules which are being used with SD-RED are already available for some XG and SG Desktop appliances – a great chance to go back to existing customers after a while and position an upsell option. This modular concept also allows us to offer more connectivity options without having to create multiple separate models. Every separate model we offer needs to be manufactured, certified, planned, forecast and stocked separately both in our logistics centers and those of our distributors. This new modularity offers benefits for our customers, our channel and our supply chain.

Note: In future software releases for XG and SG UTM, we will also add support for the SFP VDSL modem, but it is not supported today.

Why the price changes?

The witcher enhanced edition skidrow. The legacy RED devices were introduced between mid-2014 and the beginning of 2016. That’s a long time by any measure but represents generations in technology and things have simply changed. The design for the new SD-RED devices allowed us to make some adjustments to the pricing based upon the components used (particularly those common to other appliances) whilst offering a much-enhanced feature-set. For the SD-RED 20 this resulted in a higher price than the RED 15, but with considerably newer and improved technology. For the SD-RED 60 this resulted in a lower price than the RED 50, despite the addition of the modular bay, PoE ports, etc.
