Download Link for Sophos Enterprise Console

Hello R.A.,

there's AFAIK only one version of the on-premise SEC software, sec_550_sfx.exe.
Normally you access the Downloads page with you SophosID after you have added your product credentials. Guess this is automatically done when you sign up for a trial. You should see the license status on the linked page.

After installing SEC you enter the license details when you configure the update manager. Based on your credentials the backend will determine you license and provide the necessary information and software to SEC/SUM which will then download it.

hello QC 

thanks for your reply and understand that there's AFAIK only one version of the on-premise SEC software, sec_550_sfx.exe. But then why Sophos post this Sophos Enterprise Console in so may ways like ----

1. Direct download where no no username or password for trial version will not be generated and send to a e-mail id  -   https://www.sophos.com/en-us/support/downloads/console/sophos-enterprise-console.aspx

2. Sophos Enterprise Console installer  for Sophos Endpoint Protection (Trial Confirmation) -   https://secure2.sophos.com/en-us/products/endpoint-antivirus/free-trial/on-premise.aspx

3. Sophos Enterprise Console installer For Sophos Server Protection (Trial Confirmation) -   https://secure2.sophos.com/en-us/products/server-security/free-trial/on-premise.aspx

Thanks in Advance

Hello R.A.,

[:D] in so many ways
all roads lead to Rome - no, actually there aren't many ways.
Case 1 is the regular path when you have an active license (that you've associated with your Sophos ID) whether it's trial or regular. When you go to Downloads or enter the URL directly and are already logged in with your Sophos ID you get the list of associated licensed products. Otherwise it asks you to log in.
Case 2 and 3 are essentially identical, you sign up for a trial before you can go to the Downloads. It wouldn't make sense if, when you are already a customer but haven't logged in, each time you enter the direct URL a trial license would be generated automatically (or it'd ask you to either log in or sign up for a trial).
