Sophos White Paper Sample

Organizations considering moving to an endpoint security solution often assume that the costs of switching from their current anti-virus vendor will be greater than upgrading with that vendor. To shed some light on this issue, Sophos, a leading endpoint security vendor, commissioned an independent research study to uncover and quantify all of the cost areas involved in migrating (upgrading or replacing) to an endpoint security product and managing the solution to gain a total cost of ownership (TCO) comparison between the leaders in the field.

The nine companies interviewed for this study had previously been running Symantec's or McAfee's anti-virus product before switching to Sophos Endpoint Security and Control. Real data from customers' experiences was collected to compare the true and complete costs of switching to and managing with Sophos versus upgrading and managing with the current vendor.
