Pricing and Cost Advice
Information Not Available
  • "We renew the license for one year at $10,000."
  • "The price is pretty good."
  • "When you start going to the EDR technologies and the MTR, it is a little bit expensive. It's a very good technology, and obviously, you're going to pay for it, but the pricing could do a little bit of work."
  • "We were able to eliminate the ransomware using the one-month, full-featured trial license."
  • "Licensing is based on the number of users. They give a discount for editors who are considered as important members. From what I know, Sophos products are not expensive. If you have a license extension, you just need to contact the editor or partner to change the mode of licensing or extend the license to cover more people."
  • "Intercept X for endpoints is around $35 per user per year. The server version is $95 per server per year."
  • "I find the pricing to be a little bit expensive, although it is acceptable, for now."
  • "The price of this product should be reduced because it is a little high."

    Overview

    Automate your vulnerability management and save valuable time and resources with a patch management solution that lets you deploy and patch any Microsoft and Linux OS, 3rd party and proprietary software, on-the-fly, from anywhere in the world and according to any schedule. With complete visibility and granular control over your entire software inventory.

    Play it your way; set up patching or updating schedules the way you like them, force-push updates to users or AD groups, uninstall unstable software versions or you can sit back, relax, and let our patch management tool figure out what’s best for your vulnerability and software asset management needs.

    Unifying Windows and Linux under a single banner – Patch & Asset Management can now provide powerful and insightful vulnerability and patch management for both Windows and Linux-running machines and group policies. Install, deploy, and push security and non-security updates & patches on any system anywhere and anytime, regardless of build. Compatible with Ubuntu 18.04+.

    As soon as 3rd party vendors release new patches, our technology silently deploys them to your endpoints based on your configured policies, without the need for manual input, reboots or user interruption. Additionally, you can always use the Infinity Management add-on to deploy and patch any other custom application that supports silent installation commands.

    Patch & Asset Management has the shortest vendor to end-user waiting time: < 4 hours, which includes testing and repackaging. Every patch, update, rollup, hotfix, security pack, or fix is tested, adware-cleaned, and repackaged before added to your Heimdal cloud. HTTPS encapsulation ensures data in-transit privacy. Once uploaded to the Heimdal cloud, the resource becomes available for distribution and deployment.

    Enjoy completely customizable set-and-forget settings that allow you to automatically deploy your software and updates, with a full compliance and CVE/CVSS audit trail. This gives you the powerful option to tailor your entire IT environment. You can create policies that meet your exact needs across the Active Directory groups within your organization. Once configured, the deployment is easy and simple. Low bandwidth resources are necessary since our patch management software uses local P2P for patch distribution & deployment instead of client-server models.
