Their Mac stuff has been free for home use for years. This is an interesting move.

UTM's free for home use. It's fiddly mind!

 

I used to love sophos, but they are letting us down left right and center on many products at the moment.

Sophos also recently aquired SurfRight (the company that makes Hitman Pro). I hope they incorporate that into Sophos Home since it's really good.

Being cloud-managed I assume Sophos Home doesn't slow down your Windows PC or Mac as much as their anti-virus has done in the past?

If you use the Sophos home UTM, you also get some free sophos endpoint protection client licences. I think it's up to 10/20 Computer or something around that number

The older UTM 9 does, but the new Sophos XG UTM doesn't have the endpoint protection features.
