Differences all products?

Hello,

Have been and am a satisfied user of HitmanPro Biz Edition paid version for many years at some sites. Now the first site's license has to be renewed and I do not see the option to renew just that as it used to be. Seems that Sophos has finally decided to integrate the product in the current product lines. To get used to all that I tried to find what I should do. But the wealth of options makes that it is quickly getting out of control. The Biz chat pointed me to here (as I was looking at the free tools home editions page logically but why even offer a chat with the business / sales reps when looking at the FREE HOME tools pages at all?) so please allow me to ask the question.

I wanted to test how to install, how it works, what the terminology is etc. with either:

    Sophos UTM Home Edition
    Sophos XG Firewall Home Edition

but seem to be unable to find out which I should prefer. What the differences and the future of both are.

Further I found that HitmanPro was integrated in InterceptX I believe and I may therefore been busy looking in the wrong directions. More products I should consider?

  • Hi and welcome,

    The UTM is a mature product but getting newer features added. The UTM has a life and growth for a number of years. Home use has a 50 IP licence limit

    The XG is where Sophos sees the future. Currently the XG is a reasonable firewall depending on what you want. Home use limit is 4 cpu and 6gb of ram.

    For basic web surfing protection it will suit most home users.
