User Sync ID in v17.5

Question

Hey guys 
 
 Anyone got any feedback on Synchronised User ID that was released in v17.5? 
 
 I am not a fan of STAS and its issues and saw this. I don't have v17.5 yet and I don't use Sophos on my Endpoints. 
 Anyone tried it and does it work well?

Had a minor issue with the beta version of Sophos Endpoint which is needed. All computers need one or more restarts after the beta version has been deployed. Without the restart one of our applications didn't work anymore. 
 I didn't deploy the beta to all computers but those which have been updated report to our XG. I can see Live Users and Live Connections with corresponding users. I don't see permanent logins and logouts like we had with STAS. Seems this is the solution we needed to get rid of STAS which gave us headache during the last weeks.

You need Sophos Central Endpoint to get Sync User ID. 
 It relies on the Endpoint. 
 If you want to replace STAS and do not have the Endpoint, go to SSO Client. It basically do the same without the endpoint.
