My sophos home for free#
So we’re offering an even better antivirus program to replace what you had for FREE Sophos Home.
Wondering if others are running into the same issues. The free Mac antivirus you downloaded years ago is finally reaching the end of its life. No blog post or announcement in sight - in fact most of the website still says "Free" but the landing pages have been changed to "Free Trial". Your Sophos Home installer can be downloaded directly from the Sophos Home website OR via your existing Sophos Home dashboard depending on whether youd like to download the Free Trial, or you are already a Premium user and want to re-install or protect additional systems. I do not feel comfortable trusting my security to a company who will brick my AV with no advance warning. I had previously considered upgrading to premium, but I do not consider Sophos an option anymore. I understand sometimes a company will discontinue a product, but to pull the rug out from under me is unhelpful to say the least, especially on a security focused product. The dashboard is no longer functional and after updating the software it appears essentially bricked with nothing but an ad for premium.įeels like the beginning of the end for Sophos. So it appears that the non-premium version of Sophos Home has been silently moved from "Free Edition" to "Free Trial".
