Scope of Server / Client Policies

Question

Hi, 
 I am evaluating some Firewall / Endpoint products in order to choose one for our new security project. 
 I saw an video about Sophos Central and I am wondering whether the clients and a the servers share the same policies/settings or if it is possible to have groups of clients or groups of servers that share the same policy/settings.

Servers and Clients are separated for the most part but there are some global options that apply to both. 
 For servers you can create Server groups and assign policies to those. 
 For endpoints you can created computer groups and assign policies to those, you can also assign policies to user or devices.

Servers and Workstations are automatically separated in Sophos Central, you can also create Groups and assign them to specific policies, by default any computer or server not assigned to a specific policy will be assigned to the default policy.

 Also there is a trial you could do with a couple test computers to get a better understanding of Sophos Central.

 You can also go to google and search Sophos Central Admin Console, then look at videos in Google, there are alot of overviews of the admin console there.
